    It’s clear that one of us doesn’t understand self defense.

    I think that everyone should be taught the laws governing the use of force, in high school, before anyone is old enough to legally acquire a firearm.

    Everyone. Not just gun owners. I think everyone needs a consistent understanding, because there are obviously some major misconceptions in the public’s current knowledge if half the general public thinks he’s a murderer and half think he’s completely exonerated.
