It is outright evil. California has always had a Stand Your Ground defense and it&#8217;s never been a problem. California&#8217;s Stand Your Ground jury instruction already doesn&#8217;t allow for a viable self-defense claim if you provoked the attack. The antigunner&#8217;s claimed fear is not a thing. They just hate the right to bear arms and hate that more people in California can now exercise it thanks to Bruen.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"flex flex-col gap-6\">\n<div class=\"w-full rounded-xl\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"object-cover w-full rounded-xl\" src=\"https:\/\/pbs.twimg.com\/media\/GlDttikXQAADgka.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"505\" height=\"549\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"h-px border-0 border-transparent\">\n<div class=\"block h-px w-1\/3 bg-gray-200 dark:bg-gray-700 mx-auto\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap text-lg\" dir=\"auto\"><a class=\"text-primary hover:text-blue-600\" title=\"Assemblymember Rick Chavez Zbur\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/AsmRickZbur\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@Assemblymember Rick Chavez Zbur<\/a> have the decency to scrap this monstrous bill. Haven&#8217;t California&#8217;s voters made it clear they are done with you catering to criminals? If this passes, I say we get a proposition submitted to enshrine SYG into the CA constitution. I think that would pass even in this blue state.<\/div>\n<div class=\"h-px border-0 border-transparent\">\n<div class=\"block h-px w-1\/3 bg-gray-200 dark:bg-gray-700 mx-auto\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap text-lg\" dir=\"auto\">This is already true under current law! SYG still requires that you reasonably bellieve you are facing an imminent deadly threat. All the legal elements of self-defense must still be there, or its criminal homicide. It just makes it so you arent obligated to try and flee first. And again, you don&#8217;t want Soros-backed prosecutors second-guessing what was &#8220;truly necessary&#8221;.<\/div>\n<div class=\"flex flex-col gap-6\">\n<div class=\"w-full rounded-xl\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"object-cover w-full rounded-xl\" src=\"https:\/\/pbs.twimg.com\/media\/GlDwATGWIAA7wfu.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"506\" height=\"547\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"h-px border-0 border-transparent\">\n<div class=\"block h-px w-1\/3 bg-gray-200 dark:bg-gray-700 mx-auto\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap text-lg\" dir=\"auto\"><a href=\"https:\/\/momsdemandaction.org\/press\/fact-sheet-ab-1333-is-life-saving-legislation-aimed-at-preventing-those-who-shoot-first-and-ask-questions-later\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read all of the Moms Demand&#8217;s nonsense here if you want.\u00a0<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"h-px border-0 border-transparent\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kostas Moros Moms demand recently published a defense of AB 1333, saying its &#8220;right wing extremists&#8221; attacking it.
