The police have no duty to protect you. Really, they don't.

22. I want accountability to a jury not to one person who's job it is to win cases

and pursue cases they think they can win in the face of a law that says they have no case, ie SYG. Nothing stops anyone from defending themselves what I and many others want is for people to not have a 'get out of jail card' that goes right into the hands of police. When you legalize the killing of people sans trial you remove the accountability.

I find it astounding that there seem to be people that equate a trial by jury or even civil suits to try and extract some form of justice for the murder of another person when it may not have needed to happen. All cases aren't the same some self defense cases are just that but they should ALL have to stand up in a court of law where a jury decides if the person defending themselves did the right thing or went too far. SYG type laws remove that and offer essentially a blanket of protection to kill people without much of any scrutiny provided you 'did it right'.

SYG laws have much more room to exploit the killing of another person than not having it.

Without those laws how is anyone stopped from defending themselves? Do their guns suddenly not fire? Do they suddenly lose the ability to fight back? Or is it that they might have to consider the consequences of their actions, that they might not have 'blanket immunity' to kill the person they see as a threat? I have no studies to reference but I think once you remove that 'taboo' or 'limitation' on killing people at will (in that defense scenario) people will no longer 'worry about it' cause they know they are legally allowed to do so.
