The killing was an act of self-defense because the deceased threatened his life and physically attacked him.

“And he looked me dead in my eyes and I didn't know gray was an eye color. Apparently 2% of the population has gray as an eye color, but I didn't know that was a color. And his eyes, it just looked like there was nothing there and he looked me dead in my face and he said, "I'm going to [ __ ] kill yo”

Lul Tim maintains that his actions during the 2020 incident were taken solely to protect his friend from an unprovoked attack.

“I'm not going to let nobody [ __ ] with nobody who I love.”

Travis Rudolph maintains that he acted in self-defense to protect his and his brother's lives when he fired 39 rounds at the vehicle.

“I know I made the right decision cuz I'm here and I'm a living testimony of I I protected protected me and my brother's life and I don't shoot those 39 times or Retreat who knows I I really feel like me and my brother would have been dead and possibly my mom like that's just what it was”

DJ Vlad argues that Lul Tim was justified in using force to protect his friend during the attack by King Von.

“I just want to say that I feel you did the exact right thing. If I was in that same situation myself, I would expect my security to act the same way.”

Amber claims that she shot and cut her partner because she was acting in self-defense due to his previous abusive behavior and an immediate threat while he was handling a gun.

“Blake was starting to like play around with the gun. Mhm. And he was pointing it at me at this point. It was like sideways. And so I grabbed it and I pushed his hand away. I grabbed it again and I let loose.”

Tony Cowden advocates for the use of bear spray as a non-lethal tool for self-defense in situations where lethal force is not appropriate.

“to me that kind of bridges the gap between these and a knife you know what I mean and and that's a good thing because like I said we can't just can't just kill anyone you know you can't go lethal over arguments at the gas pump or stuff like that”

He believes that if someone is robbed at gunpoint, the safest approach for someone without specific training is to comply with the attacker's demands.

“common sense would tell you just always comply with these people that have a gun your head like if you have money just [ __ ] give it to them like you'll figure it out after”

Megyn Kelly advocates for the use of non-lethal self-defense tools, such as Byrna launchers, to avoid the legal risks associated with using deadly force.

“Sure, you could use a firearm, but in today's America, defending yourself with deadly force could have legal consequences.”

The self-defense techniques shown in the videos are unrealistic and will likely lead to injury or death if someone attempts to use them in a real-world scenario.
