We currently do not allow questions about self-defense.
While it is okay to post published situations, disclosing the names or information of otherwise-anonymous parties, users, etc., is strictly forbidden. Don't derail threads by posting your own crazy story that has nothing to do with it. We're generally light-handed with moderation in this subreddit, but personal attacks and harassing comments will be removed. If you decide to post there, first read the rules. If you need legal advice, please post to the main sub, /r/legaladvice. This sub is for general off-topic legal discussion. The moderators tread lightly here, but 'offtopic' in the name of the sub does not mean that anything goes.
All other discussions about /r/legaladvice posts that go a bit too far afield to remain on topic - non-legal tangents, related but different experiences, social, political or cultural aspects - pretty much anything.
