This is correct; however, you do not have the right to use deadly force. 


I didn't say you did. We agreed there.



But, if I point a gun at you and tell you to stop, putting your hands in your back pockets is going to tell me you're reaching for a gun. Then, I'm fearing for my life. I shoot. I go home, no problems.


There's more to that case than we're arguing about. Without the rest of the details, it's impossible to decipher what caused his guilty verdict.


From the little info we have, he was actually in the right.

That's why I'm saying there is more to that story than the info I could find so far.

I think we would agree on that. I was just saying that juries do crazy shite. Here in MS one time a man was convicted of manslaughter after shooting a man that broke into his girlfriends house. The man he shot was actually the girls "other" boyfriend. The other boyfriend came to the house beating on the door and said I'm going to come back and kill you. The man came back, broke in the house and pulled a gun. The convicted man pulled his own and shot the guy dead. Clear cut self-defense if you ask me considering he was lawfully in the house. The jury convicted however. Craziest result I've ever seen.
