And no, I am not suggesting there should be a formal hunting season on thugs.

Buuuuuuuut, that’s not a bad idea…….or, just a bus ticket to Chicago.

He also said the shooter dumped a drink on Washington as he was leaving the restaurant and threw a cup at him.

"At the least, it's called abuse of a corpse, that's a misdemeanor crime in Harris County," he said.

LOL! Well, he might be guilty of that.

They need to go tell someone that gives a good shite.....
How about they go pound sand where the sun don’t shine.
The SOB came in there waving what was thought to be a real gun threatening/scaring everybody in the place for their very lives. Whatever he got, he asked for it....screw em.

“The shooter fired a total of nine shots as Washington was leaving the restaurant.”

He had a nine round clip. Out of ammo cease firing.

have a problem with the shoot although I don’t know why.

Gerone was just getting food money for his shorties.
Or, they knew from staring at the screen that the gun was fake, so someone could have just said no and punched him real hard to go away.

Okay. I’ll be contrarian.

Had the defender emptied all his rounds immediately = self defense.

Guy laid out, weapon no longer in his hand, head shot?

That’s an argument before a jury.

I personally would vote not guilty.

But the gap between shots and the head shot is a problem.

Dear white people:
Defending yourself and others against a black thug is racist.

Normal People:
And what else?

The kid presented as armed.

I’m not sure of the exact language involved, but if you
present a toy weapon at the counter, I believe you are
charged with armed robbery because the owner/employee
doesn’t know it’s just a toy. To them, they are under
threat of their life.

It’s stupid to pull a stunt like this. To the patrons
there was the threat the kid would turn around and fire
at will

Hate to see a kid die young, but you know, he got up
and decided to temp fate. Fate won.

I don’t care about the angle of the shooter. The kid
was a threat. Good on the shooter > IMO.

Honestly, until things cool down, I'm all for folks erring
on the said of shoot first and figuring it out later.

A few dead thugs, and the word gets around.

“Not a popular opinion. Some people on this forum have a problem with the shoot although I don’t know why.”

Those same people are probably just fine with cops who shoot people ten times, reload, and shoot them another ten times.

On a strictly legal analysis basis, and based only on the video evidence, this one appears to have gone from “lawful to awful”, probably with the final shot.

It’s not clear what the DA and grand jury are going to do, as the general tenor down here is that people are sick and tired of the general lawlessness, and in particular robberies in that part of town.

This is one to study for anyone who carries.

“Only the shooter’s thought process matters.”

No one can determine what the shooter’s thought process was. It has to determined that his actions were reasonable.

These idiot activists on top of the dead criminal are all the more reason to carry a weapon for protection.

The first shot killed him. The rest were just shooting a corpse.

Guns are the great equalizer. Guess the activists don’t want people to be equal.

The activists should be shot.

This. They are members of a seditious, Communist militia and should be treated as such.

what crime is the shooter committing?

I've thought since I read about it that the only thing they can convict him on is abuse of a corpse.
