31:18Now PlayingAndrew Branca reacts to a viral legal analysis of the Chud the Builder shooting—and argues the video fundamentally misunderstands core American self-defense law.
From claiming self-defense “shifts the burden” onto the defendant, to suggesting deadly force cannot be justified against an unarmed attacker, Andrew walks through point after point where he believes the legal analysis completely breaks down under actual Tennessee self-defense law.
The clip focuses heavily on the difference between admitting conduct and admitting criminal guilt, why self-defense is legally a “confession and avoidance” defense, and why the prosecution—not the defendant—must disprove self-defense beyond a reasonable doubt once the issue is raised.
Andrew also challenges claims about premeditation, provocation, firearms presentation, and whether the publicly released affidavit actually supports the narrative many online commentators are pushing.
