If you were inside your truck you were not threatened. Your truck
might have been subject to damage. There was nothing to prevent you
from driving away.That sounds like you committed aggravated assault to
me. Good thing he didn't file a complaint.


Oh, I wasn't being threatened? Bull****. He wasn't carrying a bag of
Skittles and a soft drink when he came at me.


He also was not likely to be able to outrun your truck.

You were not exposed and you had the ability to retreat. That is the
test in Md. You can't "stand your ground"


My truck windows were open, and you have no idea whether I had the
ability to retreat safely. In any event, he was arrested, tried,
convicted and sentenced to 20 years. His girlfriend copped a plea and
got a much lesser sentence, but I don't recall what it was. His other
partner was also sent to the slammer.

As for Maryland, I've been told by law enforcement officials and an
assistant prosecutor that if someone forces their way into the house at
night and I shoot the perp, they are unlikely to prosecute.
