Quoted: It will depend on black shirt. Was it warning shot, a ND, or an intentional shot at green shirt. The warning shot gets iffy, as lethal force was justified. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: In my opinion, I don't believe this should even reach charges brought. I wouldn't be surprised if it went to civil court but then if it did, I'd think the claimant would lose (rightfully). They were instructed to leave the property multiple times and refused while also introducing aggressive physical action to include physical assault on their part against black shirt. The family court order covers only so much and I suppose the fact the ex-wife was physically on the property at that time could imply some sort of consent or permission by the property resident for green shirt to be there but it does not allow uncivil behavior, no matter how badly anyone desires to spin it (leave your emotional baggage at the door). Any family court issued orders violated by the ex-wife should be handled in court, not by green shirt at black shirt's residence. Court orders are premised on civil behavior between parties, not just any kind of behavior you feel like exhibiting. Did black shirt break any law? Not positive but I do not believe so. There was that shot to the porch floor board but not sure if that was a reflex induced ND or actual warning shot. If a warning shot, not sure if that's a gray area. Did ex-wife violate a family court order? Very good chance but not sure. At best, this is my layman's opinion. Warning shots are not allowed in Texas. He should have shot him then. The warning shot gets iffy, as lethal force was justified. I’m sure black shirt’s lawyer has advised him at this point. “Your first shot just missed, right?” “You were scared for your life the whole time, right?” “You saw him step toward you, and you thought he was coming for you again, right?” |

Quoted: The shooter is going to have a problem with imminence and reasonableness with this. If "uncivil behavior" was cause for shooting we would be stacking dead like cord-wood in this society.

View Quote The uncivil behavior is between the ex-wife and green shirt. There was obvious uncivil behavior between the shirts but that’s not as vital an action as the physical assault on green shirt’s part against black shirt is. The simple refusal to leave the property along with the threat(s) that green shirt made and acted upon with physical force are what I’m focusing on. Green shirt wasn’t shot because he was uncivil, he was shot because he was in the act of physically attacking someone. |

Quoted: Or better yet MYOB and don't insert yourself into someone else's verbal custody dispute. View Quote Yeah I'd tell the woman to go down the street and handle her affairs with the custody situation. Don't bring your baby momma drama to my house. Or have her come inside and dude will most likely leave pissed off. That's a moot point just what I would do. I'm all for being armed but not every argument needs to involve pulling a gun on someone. This isn't a gun rights issue or gun problem. Hell I'm all for being ready for something to pop off but I don't think it's smart to pull a gun (unless it gets violent) in a baby momma/daddy custody argument. If the guy shows up randomly causing trouble then this is another story. Might still be 100% legal either way though idk. |

Green shirt ran up and assaulted an armed man. Black shirt commanded him to vacate the property multiple times to no avail and then armed himself. Green shirt escalated closing the distance while black shirt made no move to advance, he just stood his ground. Green shirt further escalated by making loud verbal threats and causing bodily contact. He then escalated even further by allowing his hand to forcefully contact the firearm. Does black shirt shoot him then? Did he not have the ability and reason to end this right then and there? Maybe, maybe not but he doesn’t. There was either a warning shot or ND during that exchange. He doesn’t shoot him is the result which can be seen in the video. This isn’t me seeing what I want to see - these are the events unfolding and plainly seen in both videos. Green shirt is making good on his threats, though because immediately afterwards he then again further escalates by attempting to wrestle the firearm away. He is making good on his threats. ETA: Green shirt has made the threats and following through. Is there some point black shirt should not have believed him concerning those threats? What moment would have given him the reason not to believe green shirt didn’t mean it? ETAx2: Again, where in the interaction would give black shirt pause to disbelieve green shirt? Look above and read my first statement. Was there a point black shirt could have thought “this guy is just kidding”. |

Quoted: No he didn’t. He shot a man who was engaged in the act of physically attacking him. View Quote Everyone has a different perception. But to me the video is quite clear. At the moment of the shot, Green shirt was several yards away, standing on a porch. At that moment, it was physically impossible for Green shirt to attack Black shirt. Green had no weapon. There is no video evidence that Green shirt was advancing towards Black shirt, at the moment of being killed. There is video evidence showing that Green shirt fell backwards onto the porch. The bottom line is that it's not justified self-defense, at that moment. However, due to Green shirt's agitating behavior, Black shirt may only get manslaughter. Very likely, a lot of evidence will be examined that we are unware of at this time. |

Quoted: There's maybe 15 or so feet between the two when the shots centered on green shirt occurred. That can be covered in maybe a second from a stand still. Again, watch 00:11 to 00:12 seconds of the inside video. ETA: Black shirt had to stop (momentum), turn around 180 degrees, and raised his firearm on green shirt. Approximately one second for that to happen. View Quote *He is a smaller? guy, so it could be even closer. |

Quoted: He was 5-6 steps off the porch. So 5-6 feet away. You can count his steps when he walks back to the porch. *He is a smaller? guy, so it could be even closer.
