Another man claimed that he recognized Gasser from their neighborhood and earlier confrontations on the road. “He’s been like this. He’s been road raging,” said Mohammad Mussa.
Mussa said he passed Gasser’s Infiniti sometime shortly before Halloween 2015, but Gasser then sped ahead of him and tried to race him down Behrman Highway. “I got to the red light. He started cursing me out, and I started cursing him,” Mussa said.
Only the presence of a Sheriff’s Office vehicle nearby prevented the situation from getting worse, he said.
Another time, on Terry Parkway, Gasser tried to race him again, Mussa said. “He rolled his window down and he told me 'F*** you' and he rolled off,” Mussa said.
Mussa recalled telling his wife, after that interaction, that the other driver “needs to slow down. They need to take his car away from him.”

because the fact that [someone once claimed that] Gasser once beat a man up for calling to complain on his bad driving came to light [which charge was dismissed]?
There you go.

Please stop trying to use legal terms while being completely fricking wrong. It's looks even more stupid.

Im still waiting for you to list the facts that point to Gasser being an idiot
He's an idiot because he shot an unarmed man in broad daylight from inside his car.
There is no evidence he was under extreme duress. Again, more facts may come to light (e.g. maybe McKnight had a weapon), but there is no evidence to suggest Gasser did not have other options before the situation escalated.
I'm not making up facts. I'm basing my judgment on what we reasonably know at this point.

You're an idiot for continuing to assert this for no real reason.

So that's your opinion? Not facts
I read the rest of your post and I'm just going to leave you alone because you apparently have some sort of learning disability.

What doesn that incident have to do with JM chasing Gasser down, exiting his vehicle and approaching a man that boxed in sitting in his car at a red light?
It points to the possibility that McKnight was not the only aggressor throughout the ordeal, as in leading up to the incident at the intersection 4 miles from the initial encounter.

Napoleon said it better than me so I will copy his response.
I know in the constitution it says you are innocent until proven guilty. Unfortunatley police and prosecuters DO not believe that at all. How many times have you heard "He was acquitted he was not found innocent" after a trial?
When police arrest you and put you in jail they consider you guilty. When they call roll at night and read charges they cast judgements, innocent or not. They don't ask "have you ever been convicted of a crime" when you are pulled over, they ask "have you ever been arrested"?
So we need to really realize that the "innocent until proven guilty" mantra is false. You are guilty if the state says you are until you can prove otherwise, and even after you prove otherwise they can still act like you are a criminal.

Again, other information could come to light to prove that he is not an idiot. However, the facts we have right now strongly suggest he's an idiot, regardless of the legal justification he may or may not have had.
A judgment based on limited information is not an opinion. Judges have to make decisions all the time based on the limited information they have available. It's just my two cents, and I don't have a problem that others disagree with my assessment.
However, if you are going to argue with my assessment, please do me the favor of not taking my quote out of context.

Derp. So much contradiction.

I made an assessment based on what we know. I might be wrong, of course. But I'm probably right.

From what I can gather, his argument is:
He shot a guy.
That wasn't the only option available to him.

In a road rage, which it seems like he likes to be part of, you cannot shoot some one because they come to your car.
Now, had this Football player dude reached in and was choking him, etc, then it changes. Walking up to a car yelling does not equate to shooting to kill.
Agreed.
