[QUOTE="gerhard1, post: 3723167, member: 5391"] Agreed, it is real, but I might caution that many still believe in the hierarchy of deadliness myth. That is a bludgeon is not as deadly as a knife and a knife is not as deadly as a gun. Some folks believe that a fight has to be 'fair' and think that the use of a firearm against a person armed with an edged or impact weapon is excessive and the use of deadly force against fists and feet is therefore beyond the pale. We know that this is nonsense, but not everyone on a jury thinks like us, Not all judges are known for the soundness of their logic either. Massad Ayoob has said that disparity of force is a murky legal concept and I think that there are too many variables and it is too untested for it to be a dependable defense. [/QUOTE]
