‘but in my mind, this shooting seems justified”
Really? Where is the threat of great bodily harm or property?
Do you also support shooting people for cutting you off in traffic?
Don’t jump on me! I am only looking at the facts from what is presented in this case. I realize I could be wrong or don’t have all of the facts. I think we can both agree that these kids are stupid. The next thing is, were they criminal. I have to ask, why did they travel out to this kids house to challenge him to a fight. What else was said in the altercation? Did they convey threats?
I can tell you that if I had four punks outside my house harrassing me and not leaving I would definitely arm myself and call the police. What happens next depends on how the situation unfolds. How long did it take the police to respond once he called 911?
