re: Bucks and Magic are boycotting tonight's game UPDATE All games postponed

Because you keep implying that him retreating somehow magically allows him a hall pass to shoot someone coming at him

Nope, I did nothing of the sort. I said he has a duty to retreat, and he did. That's it, you inferred something more that I never said, that's on you.

quote:

---

And that somehow people coming to disarm him after he killed someone gives him further hall passes to keep murdering,

---

Except they weren't trying to simply disarm him, something you still ignore no matter how many times I tell you that.

quote:

---

Kyle will need to convince a jury, one that he didn’t instigate the confrontation,

---

It'll help but you're wrong again, he does not HAVE to convince them of that, factually speaking by law.

quote:

---

Two, that he had exhausted reasonable non-lethal means of deescalating the situation, and that he had a reasonable fear for imminent mortal danger

---

Probably shouldn't be too hard given the videos.

quote:

---

and a lunge is a hard sell on imminent mortal danger when you have an ar-15.

---

Actually especially if you have an AR-15. Given the situation, there is zero chance you can argue beyond a reasonable doubt that the guy was not going to shoot Kyle with Kyle's gun once he stole it from him, as from all reports, he was trying to take the gun from him. Again, you will have to argue that Kyle should have known beyond a reasonable doubt he was in no imminent danger. Again, logically speaking, you know the answer to that.

quote:

---

Let alone if loose reports of him instigating are true.

---

Again, could be important, but not necessarily since roles change in a situation and at the time of the shooting Kyle was retreating and the other guy was the aggressor. if Kyle was the aggressor before, then we know the bald red shirt guy would have a duty to retreat....we also know that did not happen.
