White nationalist Nick Fuentes was doxed on Friday in the fallout of his viral “My body, your choice” comment. Today, a 57 year old Jewish female journalist showed up to his house, rang the doorbell, and was maced and shoved by Fuentes. Cops and an ambulance showed up. Linked is her Facebook post. Details are limited because this is breaking.

This is wild. She even confirmed the address in her post. lmao.

Illinois is not a stand your ground state. Instead, it is a castle doctrine state. That means that individuals may stand their ground when they are in their homes, but not when they are outside of their homes. If a person is in their residence, they do not have to back down to threats of violence. If they are out of their homes, they must attempt to retreat instead of using self-defense

I hope she sues his ass. It would be so funny if this fucker ends up in jail

none of this actually describes what Nick Fuentes was doing but it's not as simple as castle vs stand your ground. important to know if you own a gun or plan on taking a trip to Berwyn

720 ILCS 5/7-2

A person is justified in the use of force against another when and to the extent that he reasonably believes that such conduct is necessary to prevent or terminate such other's unlawful entry into or attack upon a dwelling.

Illinois also has a (roundabout) home defense exception in 720 ILCS 5/7-1 but I'm not sure if it's argued this way in court. Residential burglary is a "forcible felony"

A person is justified in the use of force against another when and to the extent that he reasonably believes that such conduct is necessary to defend himself or another against such other's imminent use of unlawful force. However, he is justified in the use of force which is intended or likely to cause death or great bodily harm only if he reasonably believes that such force is necessary to prevent imminent death or great bodily harm to himself or another, or the commission of a forcible felony.

note that this also does not impose a duty to retreat. You can use (non-deadly) force whenever it's necessary to defend yourself or someone else. Don't trust legal blogspam read the law yourself

Also recognize what the law considers the opposing party doing. This is purely harassment, and she admitted it. Nobody is going to rule in her favor in a criminal court.
