"Good question, however challenging someone to a fight does not warrant use of deadly force."
You are correct, but I can certainly see them feeling threatened by having these "jutes" out in front of their house. In this day and age, often fights turn into deadly force with knives etc... You have four teenagers (sound like older teens, 17 etc..) threatening and challenging your son to a fight, it's serious. This is not the 50's anymore. Nowadays, these type of things turn deadly..

Sure thats why an appropriate response would be to call 911 and then are yourself in case the threat was escalated.
“You have four teenagers (sound like older teens, 17 etc..) threatening and challenging your son to a fight, it’s serious. “
Sure, a serious ass whoopin. Don’t know the law there but here in Florida “I’m gonna kick your butt” is not justification for use of deadly force. Especially when those kids did not have any weapons.
These kids were not in the house and were not attempting to get into the house.
