I guess that is true in some states. What a terrible law. I guess no worse than not being able to protect yourself though. Where I live you are definitely allowed to step in an protect someone whose life is being threatened if you feel inclined to help. I think it happens more often than most people think but nobody hears about it if it doesn't make the news. Safer for everyone to keep it quiet anyway. The only time I was ever arrested (PI) was for coming to the aid of a female who was being threatened. I stop it. I go to jail. They leave together. Oh well...
