Assuming that I have been identified to the freed/pardoned J6ers as being selected/nominated to his retribution list and since these people have been identified as a threat to my life, limb and person, do I now, have the right to eliminate that threat preemptively.
Yea, I mean
.to stand my ground? As soon as I know they are in my vicinty?

(18,464 posts).... would be ecstatic to protect and defend the rights of the J-6 insurrectionist. Then throw the law books at you for violation of their civil rights.
You would hand the issue to them on a silver platter, arguing or appealing to the fact that a Presidetial Pardon is absolute and can not be contested in any way, shape, or form.

(11,870 posts)Check your state law as to whether it recognizes stand your ground and/or the castle.
You do not have a hunting license, anymore than they would, assuming the threat is actually less amorphous than what you describe. If you are attacked, or credibly threatened with imminent deadly force, then you can defend yourself. I would suggest asking a lawyer in your state exactly what your rights are.

(2,472 posts)Attack someone "preemptively" and expect to get arrested and charged. Kill someone, or try to kill someone and you're going to face murder or attempted murder charges.
Typically, legal self defense has to be proportional. Deadly force can only be used against imminent threats, and you must be at risk of death or great bodily harm.
Check with a lawyer in your state because self defense laws vary widely depending on what state you are in.
