If you are anyone who wants to commit murder and get away with no repercussions whatsoever, far less than anything you will get in the DMV if caught, go to a stand your ground state.

Or just use a car in basically any state.

This feels like a shot at Rittenhouse, in which case logic would dictate one points out how every state has a "back against the wall" absolute self-defense rule, and being chased, or being beaten on the ground, would count as being against the wall.

I completely forgot about that douche. I was more thinking of Zimmerman and how in certain places and with certain people a jury will just "take your word for it" if you say you acted in self defense. You don't need to claim stand your ground even, the culture in those states is enough.
