...If I'm on the jury for the shooter's trial I'm going to be a tough sell on that reasonably in fear part...

I am going to vote the other way from you. Why?

1. Disparity of numbers. A good legal reason to use deadly force.

2. The motorcyclists pursed him.

3. He was stuck at a traffic light and had no where to go. He tried to retreat & they followed him. Further retreat was not possible.

4. It is no trick at all for a motorcycle to block in a car -- not so much a guy on foot, but the bike is not an obstacle that a SUV can run over and get away. Both will suffer extensive damage, and the SUV can easily be immobilized by running over a bike.

CORRECT - on all 4 points. That's how that cookie crumbled. Very fortuitous that no one lost their life. Maybe, just maybe this incident will encourage the motorcycle mooks to temper their behavior.

If someone follows you you're going to feel justified using deadly force? Better not come to Colorado, you could be staying here for 20 to life.
