Bullcrap. A man walks out and finds another man harassing his wife. He shoves him away. That does not entitle the aggressor to murder the unarmed man who was defending his wife.

Bad shoot and I’m glad the idiot if off the streets. And this is one of those cases where everyone would change their tune if the races were reversed.

Imagine a white guy, comes out and finds the black dude harassing his wife. He is unarmed but shoves him away. Black dude shoots him down. Everyone would be calling for a murder charge.

For the record, not I. To me, the situation would be the same: This is about a man shoving another man down violently and then he and his girlfriend remaining within striking distance.

With that said, neither man was/is a perfect person.

I do have a slightly different take on this case, that is, imho, the girlfriend could've defused the situation before it reached the point that it did.

That may be your opinion but it's not even close to reality or justice as defined by our laws. Verbal arugueing with someones wife is not a crime. Assault is a crime. The deceased was the aggressor and the attack was deadly in nature and the defendant had every right to defend himself. Many people die from attacks exactly like the one we see on video, many people.
