House Passes ‘Stand Your Ground’ Expanding Right To Shoot To Kill In Self-Defense Patch 12/18/2020 © Provided by Patch - The Ohio House passed legislation late Thursday evening that removes a legal requirement that people try to retreat from a confrontation before shooting to kill in perceived self-defense. The legislation, commonly referred to as “stand your ground,” passed in a 52-31 vote around 11:30 p.m. If passed into law, it rescinds what’s known as the “duty to retreat” from a confrontation before using a firearm in self-defense. If a person does shoot someone else and claim self-defense, the legislation says a court cannot consider the possibility of retreat when assessing whether that person used force in self-defense.
