Saying he shot him because he was texting while leaving the physical attack out of the picture is creating a lie by omitting the act that triggered the shooting.

According to witnesses the shooter initiated the altercation. So how do you know the victim didn't throw popcorn in self defense?

There is video. The shooter had words with the guy who got shot. The guy who got shot initiated the second round of words when the shooter came back from talking to the management and getting popcorn. The guy who got shot then stood up, lunged at the shooter, grabbed the popcorn container out of his hands and through it in the shooters face. The shooter instantly drew his handgun and fired.

It is all on video. That is how I know it and I also read the police reports that support what is on the video.

The shooters stance that he felt he was, "about to get the crap beat our of him" is a little thin for me, but and this is a big but, it was the victim who initiated the physical confrontation. Until the guy who got shot got physical it was all a verbal exchange.

That the guy who got shot assaulted the shooter is a fact caught on video. What is not on the video is sound. There were a lot of words exchanged but we do not know what was said in the exchange.

I do not remember the shooter making any calls while he was in his seat and his son does not indicate where his father was when he talked to him.

Because the video does not show the shooter making a call from his seat it would be my opinion that he made the call to his son when he was out of the theater getting the popcorn and talking to management.

The timing on all of this is close. This whole incident took place in a very few minutes.

Again I will say I think the shooters case is thin but it was all not just as you posted. Take a look at the surveillance video for yourself.
