A couple of drivers in Shreveport have some sort of disagreement while out conducting their Saturday afternoon errands. One pulls into a parking lot.

The other driver follows, gets out of his car, approaches the other car, and begins banging on his window imploring the driver to get out.

The driver still in his car arms himself, and shoots the other guy through the window.



News reports state both drivers were 60 years old. The victim got back in his vehicle and drove to the front of the store seeking help with a gunshot wound to his chest.

The shooter was arrested.

Sounds like ole baw will eventually get off but he will enjoy some legal bills for a long time.

And how is he a victim? He followed in the parking lot. He walked up to the other car. He banged on the window. Poor chain of decisions there.

Lol wrong. You can’t shoot an unarmed man standing outside your vehicle. This dude is going to jail.

Had someone who was raging hard at me. They followed me all the way to a restaurant, I sat in my car with my pistol. Not sure how I would have handled it had he walked to my car. An idiot who follows someone like that could easily have a weapon

This pretty much. Once that other guy got out of his vehicle and started a confrontation he put himself in a position to get a copper and lead vitamin injection. If he made any verbal threats to the driver of the other car that could be an issue too.

Exactly, read wtf I wrote. Some of you are saying it’s ok to shoot an unarmed guy b/c he was scared for his life. This other guy shot someone holding a gun and was still arrested for murder. After having his car surrounded by the mob no less.

You are not very bright are you?

Any scenario whereby that guy attempted to open the door or break the window. I know this is difficult for some of you to grasp but a forcible felony does not require the use of a weapon or any physical object to be in the hands of the offender.

No doubt. But he wasn’t yet posing a death threat. If had a weapon in hand, yes. Had he breeched the vehicle, yes. But he did neither. Dude should have backed up and rolled out.

I was there when this happened with my 2 kids. I just loaded them up real quick and got the hell out.

Makes me feel slightly better that it was just too old guys going at it, but in Shreveport you never know when a gang war is about to pop off.

Retard, being armed doesn't matter if you are attacking someone physically. If you started swinging at me in the streets somewhere, I could justifiably shoot you in self-defense as long as I wasn't the initial aggressor.

This should be painfully obvious this long after Trayvon Martin but you maybe are just that level of dumb.

Maybe because he got shot before he actually broke the window.

Driver 1 could’ve left, yes. But maybe that’s what he did, when driver 2 followed him, exited his car and started banging on driver 1’s window trying to break it.

That didn’t happen here. Banging on the window imploring the guy to get out is not breaching or attempting to breach the vehicle.

You really don’t know what the frick you are talking about. You can not just shoot someone b/c they knocked on your window. Now if they tried to car jack you, yea. Completely different. But they didn’t say that’s what happened. And the guy did not have a weapon in his hand.
