Victim's girlfriend says Florida gunman provoked fatal 'stand your ground' shooting
ABC News ^ | July 2, 2018 | Karma Allen

Posted on 07/23/2018 8:14:48 AM PDT by Navy Patriot

Britany Jacobs, the girlfriend of the man shot and killed in a Florida parking lot last week, says her boyfriend was just coming to her defense and the gunman “wanted someone to be angry at.” Now she wants “justice,” she says.

Jacobs, who witnessed the shooting along with the couple’s 5-year-old son, said she and her two small children were waiting in the car for her boyfriend, Markeis McGlockton, while he ran into a convenience store in Clearwater, Florida. Onlooker Michael Drejka got out of his parked car and began “harassing” her about being parked in a handicap space, she said.

Surveillance video showed McGlockton exiting the store and shoving Drejka to the ground. Drejka then drew a handgun and shot and killed McGlockton.

Justa, you don’t pull the trigger when someone is moving away from you.

If someone blind sides you and knocks you out, does that justify you shooting them dead when you wake up, even though they’ve walked away?

Of course not. It has been my premise the Black guy saw the gun and was moving away.

"...You wouldn’t protect your woman?..."

Protect her from what? Being corrected on incorrectly parking in a handicapped spot which she has no business occupying?

I WANT people like her to be corrected. And I want violent savages like her boyfriend to be shot and killed when they attack a nonviolent person.

On a high level, the shooter was simply maintaining civilization, and I am a fan of civilization.

Hard to believe this is even a topic of discussion. I think the crux is the shooter is a dick.

So in your world everyone is lying because a few people lie.

No, only Prog Socialist Rats, RINOs, Deep Swamp and the MSM lie by and for, narrative and agenda.

And, of course you by repeating those unvetted lies.

... because a few people lie.

And there you go again, Prog Socialist Rats, RINOs, Deep Swamp and the MSM are not "a few", and I have already proved on this thread that they lied by and for, narrative and anti Constitutional agenda, about Trayvon Martin, George Zimmerman, Michael Gentle Giant Brown, cases strikingly similar to this one.

Also I posted proof of a Hoax Hate Crime against an innocent White man that was promoted and sensationalized by the lying MSM and MSM narrative, and the exposed Hoax downplayed by that same MSM, while the Leftist Hate Whitey website continue the call for violence against the innocent White Guy. The same sites where you get your hearsay about Drejka. You have ignored this proof of agenda exactly like thee Prog Lefty sites.

Additionally, the MSM has cooperated in narrative and agenda hearsay lies about numerous cases of self defense by Police Officers, and those lies have enabled several murders from ambush of Police Officers while on routine patrol.

Well then I guess there was no problem at all with the Clintons, because very little was ever documented in a court of law.

In fact, there is less court sourced evidence about the Clinton's exactly because of the MSM narrative and agenda covers for her with the same lies you repeat endlessly, and the Deep Swamp stonewalling Constitutional Congressional Orders to produce existing court admissible evidence of Hillary's criminal activity.

Congratulations, Alinskyite, you're supporting the Coup.

But let's explore your world where convicted violent Felons can immediately execute life threatening violence against smaller weaker individuals for failure to show respect to the degree demanded by the Entitled Class member.

Where self defense is not allowed if the Entitled Class Member is quick enough to pull up his pants a second time before continuing the battery.

Where admonishing a female scofflaw is punishable by a life threatening beatdown from her criminal "man" while being cheered on by the likes of you because both of you don't like busybodies or snitches.

Speak to women you don't know? Why every thug knows "you just don't do that".

Enjoy your Socialist Utopia, I'm sure your pets will give you time to explain when they don't get what they want from you.

It served to show that this man was causing problems on the lot, was threatening to kill people, and was using racial epithets. He was in effect doing all that he could to be able to use his conceal permit.

That's called hearsay and without any police reports, arrests to back it up it wouldn't even be allowed in court. And yeah he could be lying absolutely. Maybe he is a maxine waters lover, you don't know who he is at all. And IF this Drejka guy was so bad why didn't the owner call the police on him to get him out of his lot? That is Very suspicious.

Also I bet Glockton had a huge criminal record, but you liberals don't want that looked into of course.

The day in question the 47 year old man picked the wrong couple to badger. He got his ass kicked for it.

And this is why you're an idiot. talking to someone about a parking space is not illegal in any way. Knocking someone viciously to the ground is, you moron. the guy who ILLEGALLY threw him to the ground got killed for it. Oh well bye bye to another thug that you and your DUers can cry over.

This old man was on the ground, and at the time he shot, his assailant was backing away and turning to go even further away.

That is a debatable part, the rest of your liberal crap isn't. My opinion is the guy only backed off when the bullet was coming out of the gun, too late to put it back.

BTW look at DU, everyone agrees with you. Jesse jackson and Al Sharpton agree with you, black lives matter agrees with you. But you don't see a problem with any of that do you? Just like RINOs in congress you're here doing the libs footwork for them. Too bad for you and all your lib friends the charges have been RIGHTLY dismissed. ha ha ha.

You poor thing.

You actually think the best argument you can make includes Leftists and denies the word of anyone who doesn’t support your conclusion.

Another post filled with utter nonsense.

Thanks for the photos.

They seem to confirm my impression of what took place.

Do you just make shit up as you go? You pretend you know the wg was yelling, you pretend you know what he said, you pretend wg talking to someone is grounds for a violent attack. You’re a fraud

LOL

I’ve noticed that it is very upsetting for the folks who think this was a righteous kill, for someone to point out that the 47 year old shot a man moving away from him.

As for what the man was saying, it was loud enough for the boyfriend to hear it from a distance and know it was objectionable enough to enrage him.

I guess this didn’t occur to you.

Now that at least one other person has been interviewed and stated what this man’s attitude was towards him, and it falls in line with what took place, you guys are even more upset.

No, I can’t say for certain what the man was saying, but the reaction to it does fall in line with what this witness said in an interview.

If the 47 year old hadn’t been saying highly objectionable things, he wouldn’t have been blind-sided.

is there any way you can post the audio of the video in the parking lot so you can actually substantiate your claims of what was said or how it was said? Or is it that you just make shit up in the hopes that you’ll dupe the few here that never watched the video so you can run wild with your fake story?

Okay, in your mind it makes sense that the Black guy blind sided the 47 year old as he tried to sell boy scout cookies for his grandson.

If that’s what you want to believe, go ahead.

Any reasoned person would think the Black guy heard part of what this guy was saying, and it made him angry.

If you wish to think that wasn’t possible, go ahead.

Another post annihilating your liberal arguments, just like the other freepers here did over and over.

You lose, loser.

The 47 year old was talking to the woman.

He could have been an acquaintance.

The Black guy wouldn’t blind side a potential friend of hers.

There had to be something more going on.

Please at least post something logical in response.

“Do you think it’s ok to kill someone who pushes you down?

Simple question”

You’re damn right. that thug intended clear injury/death to the man he pushed and he wasn’t done. I would have killed him too.

agree. he’s giving you a BS song and dance to try to justify his pathetic position that the thug was just an honorable guy defending his precious bride

I’m in FLA too (winter park) and there is no way Drejka gets charged, let alone convicted on the very long stretch of it going to trial (due to a weak DA like Trayvon Martin’s) being spineless
