They were not willing to kill him, that was the problem. The minute he started chasing someone with a knife, don’t back up, aim weapon and unload on him. Stupids.

I watched all the way through before reading the article posted ... so I came away with an impression based solely on what I saw and not knew ... for I speak no Spanish

It looked like some lady was offended somehow and called the media, who interviewed her for some time

I surmised the problem was with the guy behind the fence

After a long interview, the media wanted the guys response and he just wanted to be left alone

The media chased him down, the cops got involved and people died


I appreciate the self defense lesson .... but the story (IMO) is just like in America when a tragedy occurs, the stupid media sticks a mic in some grieving persons face and asks, "how do you feel ?"


The news/media guy caused the deaths

Very true. But in America if the police shoot a man in the same situation there would be riots and they will be called “cold blooded murderers” by Lefists and by many FReepers. They will cry, “He only had a knife!”

It is similar to the situation where an “unarmed” suspect either charges at an armed officer or refuses to keep his hands up and keeps them in an area where he could reach for a concealed weapon if he has one.
