That's not how the SYG law works. Do yourself a favor and go read the damn thing and learn something. You can't just say you felt your life was in danger, it actually HAS to be in a REAL way, not imaginary. Last time I checked, sitting in your car with your window down and someone punches the windshield is NOT one of those situations. Like I said, this is an easy one especially since the shooter was found to be lying when no weapon turned up at the scene.
You do yourself a favor and look at some of the past cases where SYG was used as a defense. If the police cannot disprove your story (and in some instances don't bother to try), you get away with murder. There are enough cases documented to prove this. SYG sucks. There are plenty of situations where death was not the only option and the murderer went free. Apparently, none of them are easy. Someone punching a windshield is definitely more of a threat than someone walking around looking about. The difference between you and I is that I believe neither of the victims in these cases deserved to die and that it is a coward move to pull the trigger and kill someone so easily.
Do you usually fight with people in their cars? I don't know what went down, I wasn't there. And I DON'T have enough info to say for sure. Maybe he was the violent type? Maybe the driver was? Someone will, it will be sorted out.
This is why armchair justice doesn't work you see...
I was only reacting to to what was said about "not being where he was not suppoesed to be", peple do it all the time.
How do we know the driver wasn't "profiling"? He might have been a cat person, just looking to off an innocent dog walker. Maybe a dog crapped in his yard? He needs to be arrested. The AKC should put a bounty of 10,000 dog bones on the murder's head.
chirp, chirp, chirp....
the crickets are damned near deafening around here.
