(17,502 posts)self defense shooting are intra race. I'm willing to bet that is true in general since this corresponds with crime in general, meaning the victim and the attacker is generally the same race. If I am going to be a crime victim, statistically, the attacker is going to be white. If I shoot him, he is still going to be white.
In Iowa, although it doesn't have SYG, an Asian man did prevail in a self defense claim against two white guys. I don't look for race in the papers. BTW are you saying California's common law SYG is also racist? Are you saying it is racist to defend yourself? Or have laws defending yourself? There is another possibility, but it makes you sound kind of............
Honestly, I have a hard time wrapping my head around how you might have come to that conclusion.
