The knife Karmelo Anthony had was ruled to be legal for him to have. Small steps towards a not guilty verdict 🎉

I mean, unless it’s a self-defense case. Texas self-defense law is SUPER broad, and I’d argue that it practically legalizes murder. But under those Texas laws, this might just be ruled self-defense. Not like there’s a “whites only” provision in the Texas self-defense statutes.

No matter how legal the weapon is it doesn’t change the criminality of killing someone

It’s my opinion that Stand Your Ground laws are a bad standard for self-defense. I think under most states’ standards for self-defense, Anthony would likely be convicted of at LEAST manslaughter. But in Texas? In a Stand Your Ground state? It might just get ruled self-defense, just because Stand Your Ground gives people an insane amount of leeway to kill someone.

Self defense comes with the caveat of reasonable force
