However, had the deceased not been anoying Reeves and had not thrown popcorn in his face, he would not be dead.

So if you annoy me I can shoot you?

You can shoot anyone you like, for any reason you like, as long as you are prepared to accept the consequences.

Nice liberal mental leap from point A, completely over B,C,D,.... all the way to Z

No, he did NOT say if you annoy someone its OK to shoot them.

What he said was to annoy someone can have consequences. Not all of those consequences are OK. It could be a nasty look, or roll-your-eyes, or anything. Not "its OK to shoot you"

That is called a non-sequitor. And it shows an inability to grasp a point and continue the thought to logical conclusions, so YOU jump to an illogical one and then accuse the other person of it.

Stop that. *rolls eyes*
