“If you put me in Marc’s shoes, there’s no way that I would’ve been prosecuted,” Wilson’s white cousin, Chance Pridgen, told Yahoo News.
Odds are I would’ve been given a medal—probably gotten a parade in my name,”

Bull shit. Stop listening to MSM lies.

A road rage “killer” in Kentucky was found not guilty about six years ago. He even started it and followed the guy off the freeway. But the other guy got a bat out of his trunk and started beating the instigator’s car’s windshield and side windows, at which point the instigator shot him dead.

If one fears for their life or serious bodily injury and they are in Kentucky, the use of deadly force is justified, even if you started the encounter at the “non-violent” stage. The other guy upped the game and was killed for it.

An armed society is a polite society.

People misunderstand the ‘Stand Your Ground’ laws, and his lawyer should have gone a different route..............

The killer is a PUSSY. There was NO need to fire a single round. PERIOD.

A major component of “stand your ground” is that you’re allowed to lethal force against an aggressor, not kill an innocent bystander which is what this young man did.

...the person using deadly force may not have provoked the attackers...


That part is missing in the Kentucky statute. If you provoke someone with words, and they come at you with a baseball bat, you have the legal right to shoot them dead.

Problem is, you don’t just shoot randomly at a car. Shoot at the driver. Well, that sort of speaks to what the problem is here. If he could convince a jury that the car really was trying to run him “off the road”, and could show contact points on the cars, perhaps he could have gotten away with shooting the driver of the other car.

This guy needs to watch more “audit the audit” and “lackluster” channels on youtube. Race doesn’t protect you from the cops, and especially from proper charges.

“ever since black teenager Trayvon Martin was shot and killed in 2012 during a physical attack on George Zimmerman, a mixed-race Latino of Afro–Peruvian descent.”

Guy would rather defend some BS “racism” rather than his own blood. Disgusting.

I don’t think Stand Your Ground refers to driving.
