One Australian state STILL has "gay panic defence" law on their books: basically آپ can assault / kill someone if آپ think they're making unwanted same-sex advances. It doesn't apply to unwanted heterosexual advances. Thankfully they're getting rid of it this year.
Also some of the dumbass laws restricting embryo use in scientific research. Right now, scientists can only use excess embryos from IVF procedures (only if the man and women give consent ofc, and also under extremely strict conditions, eg. they cannot let it grow bigger than a few dozen یا hundred cells). Keep the strict conditions, but let scientists COMBINE the egg and sperm from consenting donors, rather than waiting for excess ones that are already-combined due to IVF. There's no ethical difference. And سے طرف کی increasing the number of embryos available in research, it would be extremely helpful in researching therapeutics that could save millions of lives.
Don't even get me started on dumb "corporations can do whatever they want without legal / financial consequences" laws.

Gay panic defense? Sounds like something they teach آپ in the army.
Since it says ANY law: Self defense counting as assault in some states. If it were up to me, آپ should be allowed to kill someone without being charged if they are threatening your life.

Hmm I don't know of any state that doesn't allow self-defence? It just has to be "reasonably proportionate" to the threat. If some severely drunk guy says "I'll kill ya" while swaying on his feet without any sort of weapon nearby, killing him wouldn't be a proportionate response. But if some guy is standing in front of آپ with a چھری in hand threatening to kill you, but آپ kill him first, the court will find self-defence.
Which is probably where "The person must have believed that the conduct was necessary for self-defence" would come into play. So like if the 6 foot person gave one strike and the person backed off but they kept hitting, that would be unreasonable. But if the smaller person kept fighting after the one مککا, عجیب الخلقت then it isn't. Lmao at "fuck around and find out".
