A 23-year-old man had been out of prison for barely two months when authorities said he pulled out two handguns during a fight at a Ridgeville home and sparked an exchange of gunfire that ultimately led to his death.
A man who returned fire and killed 23-year-old Ishmel Taquan Rivers on Sunday was acting in self-defense, according to initial evidence gathered by the Berkeley County Sheriff's Office. Rivers, who died shortly after at Trident Medical Center, recently completed a prison term for an involuntary manslaughter conviction tied to a 2012 shooting, state records show. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
