A Castle Doctrine also states that a person has no “duty of retreat” (avoid the conflict at all cost) when one's home/abode is under attack. The State of Arkansas technically does not have a Castle Law. However the state does have self-defense laws in place to protect person and property.
Arkansas has a duty to retreat when one can do so in "absolute safety" but has statutes allowing home defense, that have been cited. I'd argue there is no such thing as "absolute safety" but maybe you'd only get to argue that on appeal after losing.
Frankly, coming out onto your yard when you had no reason to and deliberately confronting someone, then discharging a firearm and then pointing it at them probably doesn't come under any state's castle doctrine. He'd probably be in a better position, at least under the theory of the law, if he'd outright shot the guy.
Nothing he did here conveyed that he was actually afraid of Frank Hassle, who is nothing but a troll with a camera on his forehead.
He's going to be stress eating Marco's Pizza until he gets charged by his county prosecutor.
That could take weeks or even months. As retarded as this is, it's really low priority shit. There are probably more important domestic violence cases and other shit. But they'll get around to it some time before the statute of limitations expires.
