Why is Self-Defense Justifiable as a Legal Principle? [No. 86]
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 вер 2024
- Professor Richard Epstein discusses some of the basic legal rules that govern self-defense. The Romans started with a simple intuitive system about actions that were acceptable to repel force. These principles eventually led to a more complex modern code of conduct that regulates both private individuals and public officials, such as police officers.
Professor Richard Epstein is the inaugural Laurence A. Tisch Professor of Law at NYU School of Law, a Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution, and Professor of Law Emeritus and a senior lecturer at the University of Chicago.

This is one of the best videos on UA-cam!
Does self defense also apply to corrupt cops obeying unconstitutional orders to confiscate guns?
No no no they have "Qualified Immunity" 😉 ... It's for your own good that the policemen feel safe in roughing you up (unnecessarily). ⬇⬇
Look up: 'Police in Canada assault stormtrooper lady'
I'd say that might be termed an unhealthy fear.
Most definately cooperate with any law enforcement. Might be a good idea to not comment if you have knowledge or control.
Moot anyway right?
Gun safety... What an oxymoron.😅
Amazing series. I watched all 27 videos, and got a grasp of understanding of roman law. Thanks a lot Professor Epstein
The best explanation is “The Law” by Frederick Bestaic

Yes. Sorry. The original video had a rendering error in the speaker section.
Punny
@2:03 "a privilege we give to you..." ya lost me there. who is "we"?
pretty sure it's a natural-born right.
Yeah hence why it wasn't codified by the romans but rather generally understood as such.
Democratic-styled (includes America's REPUBLIC) Governments should have to convince the people of the justice system ... not the other way around.
Duty to retreat is BS.
I believe in public spaces open to all - it may be deemed so... but I want to sue the city or state for failure to provide deterrence from thugs in those public areas (especially if the criminal is a repeated offender in which case shame on government regulatory officials )
Mulford Act of 67. Championed by Ronald Reagan prohibited such nonsense. You are being counterintuitive though I gather?
What a way to put out the honey and see where the flies go though. 😂
It needs petition. HR 1168 here in Texas. I think for a(ny) municipality to adopt restrictions a good petition needs 75k signers.
Where is the elephant hunting the best?
