If deadly force is justified, then apply deadly force. Calmly aiming down to a leg (as though that’s less deadly, there’s still a femoral artery there…) instead of backing up away from the dude isn’t exactly the strongest argument for reasonable fear of death or great bodily harm.
I don’t know what started the encounter, but I wouldn’t want to be defending myself against criminal and civil charges with video of me just standing there for all those seconds and not showing the slightest effort to deescalate, back up, etc.

He kept the gun by his side multiple times until the guy started to move on him. Depending on what state this was, he may not have had a duty to retreat.

What? The dipshit took his jacket off and advanced at the guy, how on earth wouldn’t it be a good shoot?
The shootee is a stupid SOB and lucky to still be alive.

That scene was totally ad libbed. Ford had the flu or something and didn't feel like going through the choreographed fight scene that was scripted. So he just pulled his pistol and shot it...the other actor went with it and fell down. And then the reaction of the crowd was hilarious.

Nobody is saying that it's impossible to die from a shot in the leg. But are you arguing that shooting someone in the leg is not "less deadly" than shooting them in the chest or face?

Not the slightest effort to deescalate? Dude backed up a few steps, pulled a gun on that lunatic, and told him multiple times to "get down." And only shot him once he was more aggressive (shirt off) and got to within like two feet of him with threats of bodily harm.
We didn't watch the same video apparently.

Who hangs their shirt up first? Throw it down on the ground like a real man and rush that fool! Just remember to Serpentine

Shooting in the leg is difficult, first of all. Less surface area, like trying to shoot a broomstick vs a broom head. Missing a target in a self defense scenario also increases the hazard behind the target, in this case is a neighborhood.
Secondly, stopping power. Center mass shots will stop an attacker from advancing much more often as it either disables the victim or shocks them.
If my life was in danger, I wouldn't take the chance.

it's probably fake like 95% of what the propaganda account named John Barron posts

Did he shoot him in the dick?

the guy that got shot has me cracking up over here.

A mortal threat. He shot an unarmed man. Why didn't he just fight him?
They both come off like a couple of pussies.

None of this is untrue. However, the scenario I imagine is the prosecutor, or the plaintiff attorney, asking why the shooter felt the need to stand there in defense of that little square of concrete. What did he plan to do, force the man to lay on the ground and hold him at gunpoint? Make him beg for forgiveness for wanting to fight him? Why did he stop there and not continue backing up? Just because he had a “right” not to back down? If he wasn’t in fear enough for his life to shoot center mass, why was a shot in the leg a better choice than another step, or many steps, backwards, while the guy was taking off his shirt?
If I shoot someone, I don’t want there to be any question as to whether I did everything I could to avoid pulling that trigger.

For the sake of the shooter, he better hope you're not on his jury
