Whether he is telling the truth or full of excrement, Harrier does not know.

The jury will have to decide that question.
You must be picking up bits and pieces from blogs or comments, since that is not what he first stated at all. He said they apologized and turned down the music. He added that Davis then told his friend to turn it back up. Why? Did Dunn say or do something to provoke him? Why are you only questioning what the victim did or did not do instead of the killer? Unfortunately, as in another well publicized case, the victim is not alive to give his version of the story.

How does not calling the cops equate to "leaving the scene of a car accident" if one remains on the scene of a car accident?

Have you ever seen a car accident?

Practically everyone in the vicinity is on their cell phones calling 911 once they hear metal crashing into metal.

That is the appropriate thing to do - getting medical personnel on the scene.

Harrier would not use the phone - he would be too busy helping the injured person.

Also, if Harrier is the injured person and he is incapacitated, how is he supposed to use the phone?

Harrier is not - he is being objective.

He has already said that if it can be proven that there was no reasonable cause for Dunn to feel that his life was in danger, that he was not justified in shooting.

Why do think that anyone who tries to look at both sides of this issue is somehow biased towards Dunn?

You would not make a good juror.

Harrier would.

Because he KILLED someone.

You didn't explain to Harrier why the cops should be involved.

So?

He didn't necessarily know that when he left the scene.

Why should the cops be involved?

However, neither you or Harrier know if Davis was unarmed.

That is up to the jury to decide.

Considering that no one except the man being tried for the murder heard these threats, and no gun was ever found, I would say the evidence is on my side here.

Yes it is up to the jury to decide, but I watched the entire trial, and can give my opinion of the case.

And the killer has given MANY different versions of his story. His testimony has be contradicted by phone records, other witnesses, his fiancee, and his own recorded interviews.

You didn't see nor hear everything that the jury did.

Why can't some White Males get over the fact that slavery is over and they can no longer kill Black People without justification???...when will some White Males grow a pair of balls if they are so tough and tell rude people "come on let's handle this man to man??...why are some White Males total cowards until they possess a hand gun or rifle???

Why can't some White People stop being so utterly stupid and making claims that Black people are one monolithic group that acts "gangster?"

Why are some White People so utterly racist that they have numerous web sites stating the same ignorant garbage as you??
