Videos tagged with Reasonable Apprehension

This video discusses the legal arguments surrounding brandishing a firearm in self-defense, particularly in Illinois. Instructor Mike emphasizes the importance of articulating a lawful justification for drawing a weapon, focusing on the 'mens rea' (guilty mind) and 'actus reus' (the act itself). The instructor argues that the law does not require a person to be a trained fighter and that the intent behind drawing a firearm should be to stop a deadly attack with lawful justification, not to commit aggravated assault.
