Self-Defense

If it was truly self-defense, there may not be any sentence. If it was clearly self-defense, there may not even be charges brought.

Well, IJ just chambered a revolver in 32 SW short, and they certainly weren't the only company that did. Maybe people bought them for self-defense and maybe for plinking or keeping possums out of the henhouse. Paraphrasing "Cartridges of the World", the 32 SW probably ranks along with the 32 ACP in general popularity because it is adaptable to small, light, cheap pocket handguns. In other words, it's a hideaway gun intended to be used at very close range, not something to take to the OK Coral.

Defense administration refers to the organizational structure and processes involved in managing a nation's defense policies, resources, and military operations. It encompasses planning, budgeting, logistics, personnel management, and coordination between different branches of the armed forces and governmental agencies. Effective defense administration ensures the readiness and efficiency of military forces to respond to threats and maintain national security. It plays a crucial role in strategic decision-making and the implementation of defense strategies.

a defense is a line-up of the defensive players that is played against the opposing offensive team

One of the most popular hackers' arguments is that "electrons are free--they do not belong to anybody."

Sure you can resist. Guys you can wear cups and protect yours. Girls can also protect theirs.

Ones that are avoided.

The TASER (It actually stands for Thomas Alva Swift Electric Rifle- really) uses a gas cartridge to propel two small metal darts that are connected by wires to the TASER. The darts will stick through clothing, and into a person's skin. Electronic circuits in the TASER take electricity in the batteries, and convert that to a high voltage, low amperage electrical current. The current is an alternating current that has a frequency that causes blockage of nerve messages- in other words, your muscles are no longer under your control, and you fall down. It also causes a GREAT deal of pain in the few seconds that the current is on. There have been reports of deaths associated with the use of a TASER, but they are rather rare.

Yes, it most certainly is.

why defence forces are important

Kellogg-Briand Pact was the agreement that renounced aggressive war and prohibited the use of war as an instrument of national policy except in matters of self-defense.

The Defense Factory System was a book written in 1835 by Andrew Ure, a Scottish doctor who was a lecturer during his time on different manufacturing subjects.

Self defense is necessary in the event that someone or somethings is trying to harm you. It can be an important skill in the event you are in need of protection from an attacker

Roosters are able to protect themselves by using their talons, beaks, and maybe their wings.

And running or flying away, of course.

Only as much force as is necessary to stop the assailant. In defending yourself or another you cannot use excessive force against an attacker. For example, you cannot take an attacker's life unless it is clear he will, by his actions, take yours or another's And you must be able to prove in a court of law that such force as was used was necessary, otherwise you can end up in prison for a long time. Also, after you have stopped the attacker with only as much force as necessary, you do not wait around and wait for him to get back up and start where he left off. As soon as he has been temporarily incapacitated it is your legal duty to try to find an avenue of escape. It would also help if there are witnesses who can testify that you had to take whatever action you took, and unless you know the person being attacked you may actually end up aiding the one who actually started the fight.

Defense is crucial in basketball because it directly impacts a team's ability to prevent the opposing team from scoring. A strong defensive strategy disrupts offensive plays, limits high-percentage shots, and can create turnovers, leading to fast-break opportunities. Moreover, effective defense fosters teamwork and communication, which are essential for overall team success. Ultimately, a solid defensive performance can be the difference between winning and losing close games.

To protect the mind/self/ego from anxiety, social sanctions, or situations that can't be coped with currently.

An alibi defense specifically asserts that the defendant was elsewhere when the crime occurred, providing evidence to show they could not have committed the offense. In contrast, an affirmative defense acknowledges the defendant committed the act but argues there are valid reasons or justifications for it, such as self-defense or insanity. While both can lead to a not guilty verdict, they approach the defendant's culpability from different angles.

Self defense is an affirmative defense. That means that the defendant bears the burden of presenting creditable evidence in support of the claim of self defense.

The standard of the evidence varies between different states, in some states the evidence must be "clear and convincing" while in other states the evidence must just be "more likely than not".

Different states also have different definitions of self defense. For example, in Ohio, the defendant must prove that there was an "actual threat of death or bodily injury". While in neighboring Indiana, the defendant must only prove a "reasonable belief of a threat of death or bodily injury". What's the difference? If you are accosted by a drugged out thug is pointing a gun at your kid's head and you shoot first, in Ohio you're going to prison if the thug's gun isn't loaded but in Indiana you're a free man or if the thug tossed the gun off a bridge before the cops get there.
