Should I Run on Private Property to Escape a Mugging?

>>18411989
According to the NAP, the property owner would be justified in killing you, the muggers, and any witnesses.

>would it be legal??
Who gives a shit. Does your state/country have castle doctrine laws?
If cops ask questions, please direct them to the mugger chasing you.

lmao

also this.

The mugger is going to get in legal shit for sure, the thing is he doesn't care at all. The mugger has been in and out of prisons. My problem is we might both get charged, him for attempted mugging and tresspassing and me for just tresspassing. Yes he'll get in trouble but I will as well and I actually care about my record for finding jobs.

Unless the mugger stabbed him from the other side of the fence. Then the property owner could only kill the trespasser, not the mugger.

If cops investigate, they'll almost certainly be more than happy to arrest the mugger and leave you on your way. You have a self-preservation justification for going through a yard. Unless you linger there, hide, or try to case the house then there shouldn't be a problem. Be more worried about dogs, armed home defenders or the mugger than police.

Unless the trespasser was willing to retroactively buy citizenship. Then the mugger would be attacking a citizen of the owner's property, and the mugger would be violating the NAP.

I remember when I didn't know what the NAP was.

You're wrong. The mugger's knife invaded the sovereign airspace of said property owner.

I am not sure though, the cops may charge both.

Legal? No.
Justified? Yes.

This is to say that absolute dicks of a lawyers can and will still get you into trouble, but the situation weighs heavily in your favour.

Should you do it? Imo, if the threat in running across the property is lesser than that of being caught by the mugger then HELL YES.

Nobody is going to press charges against someone who is trying to escape muggers.

Depends on your country
Im a lawyer in serbia, and, here, if you commit a crime to stop a crime/disaster, as long as what you've done was neccesary and *harmful* than what you avoided
You will not be charged.
So if you break into your neighbours car to get a fire extinguisher so your kitchen doesnt burn down to the ground, you are fine.
If you disarm a mugger and shoot him with his own gun in a scuttle, you are fine
If you are being assaulted and you smash a storefront and run inside to get in the safety of CCTV/security , you are fine
And so on.
