I'm all for grabbing a gun and being armed if the case arises but bringing out a gun here is retarded. Get your woman in the house and stand at the door with the gun if you are fearful of your life why come back out?
Dude didn't show up randomly i assume and not knowing tge back story i can't say for sure but this doesn't seem like a situation I'd consider pulling a weapon. |

You're not responding to something I wrote. Coming out of the house with a firearm to deal with a trespasser and threatening to use it is very likely assault in Texas. Shooting a round into the floor, which is clearly not self defense, is aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. He could get 20 years for that. Killing a man who is trying to take your weapon away after threatening to use it against you should fall under self defense and therefore a justified homicide in Texas. |

Everyone has different levels of pussy including me but this is far from a gun pulling fear situation. I can't even fight that great relatively speaking and I would of rather handled this mono e mono(if it was that deep).
I'll let the court decide and digress on what's legal but if you guy's are pulling guns in this situation (at least from the video) I think you need to take up jujitsu and work out. This is not a threat imo just a domestic retard dispute. |

All who suggests this is a justified shoot, how do you explain the body language of the shooter? He’s chest bumping and talking shit.
How does that illustrate “in fear for his life”? Regardless of the criminal trial, he’ll be broke from the civil suit. |

I personally think this is a bad shoot and at the end of the day if this is deemed lawful I think we need to raise the bar a little. No reason to go inside and grab a firearm, no reason to fire a warning shot and certainly no reason to kill the guy after doing all of those prior things.
This is in essence the fear the other side has had coming true - all arguments will be solved with guns and killing. It is becoming more and more common. Most likely from the ever so growing division between us driven by politics, fake news, different cultures and social isolation from COVID. Every time I turn around it seems a shooting or fights at football games, baseball games or just in general public venues. This has always been a thing but it has become more common over the last 3 or so years I swear. It is boiling and looking more and more like we are going to get there. Those two could have thrown fists and I bet nobody ended up dead and most likely they both got tired before either of them actually got hurt. Such a stupid incident. I am all for self defense but this isn't it, IMHO. |

Quoted: I guess I conflated the two things there, if you are choosing to read it that way. He doesn't need one single reason to arm himself on his own property, and there is no restriction on him doing so regardless of whether someone is trespassing, is being aggressive etc.. It isn't escalating "automatically" just to have a gun present, and your saying it does is against the 2nd and counterproductive to the protection of it. It is supposed to be a very strong deterrent if you, unlike the dad, have any sense at all, or even the slightest part of your faculties, which I'm guessing you would. Yes I think the shooter is a slime bag because of the particular situation. It just doesn't bear on my ability to see who was the obvious aggressor here. It is one thing to empathize with the guy, and put yourself in his shoes. But if you do so, are you really honestly suggesting you, as an unarmed person on someone else's property that has been told to leave multiple times, would make the actual threat that was made, to take the gun and kill him with it? And butt up against him, square off, chest thump, and even if you wouldn't accept he reached to grab it the first time, would you start trying to knock it around and not expect this outcome?

All the videos we always see it's just nuts to me how often the soon to be dead person continues to scream the person holding the gun "shoot me, I dare you" as they keep walking at them. Must be a byproduct of Hollywood or something.

And when he introduced it, did he stand in the doorway and say "time for you to leave, fuck face."? No. He came back out onto the porch and puffed up in the guy's face trying to big dick him off the property. Call it escalation, provacation, brandishing, whatever you want. A gun is not an extension of your dick, ffs. A lot of the operators in here seem to be forgetting that. That's where he'll get jammed up. IMO, once a grand jury sees the video, he's taking the ride. Yes, he basically did. He is barely outside the door with the gun pointed up and the first thing he says is "Leave, right now". He does not move from there, the dad closes on him and does all the stuff you are saying the black shirt guy did, while threatening him. I'm not sure where your rule for where you need to be standing is coming from, nor why you think staying in the house has any bearing. The idea that you are not allowed to retrieve a firearm when someone is making a disturbance on your property and refuses to leave, is just disturbing though. I sure wouldn't call it brandishing, he's holding it pointed up. Sure, he is escalating his previous demands that the dad leaves his property, yes. How is that not his right?

Quoted: That perfectly illustrates the point I was making earlier about green shirt trying to leave. Assuming that's his white truck, how is he supposed to leave without black shirt perceiving a threat because he's advancing? When you tell a guy to leave then you have to let him leave. That is the law regarding tresspassers. Black shirt effectively had him captive and then executed him. That's the proverbial smoking gun before the actual smoking gun.

Quoted: This makes absolutely no sense. He was told to leave multiple times and had every opportunity to. Instead he put himself in that exact position by going to that spot where he is standing in the pic, getting in the guy with the gun's face, and tossing the guy with the gun over to where he was standing in the pic. View Quote The shooter was actually blocking the dead guy from leaving with the gun. When dead guy tried to move the gun (not grab) he got shot at. |
