You said that the posters arguing against were using euphemisms like “tapped” to make the road rage guy seem less threatening. I did not do that, not once.

Give me a scenario where it’s ok. Because this one isn’t one.


Can you say the man had no reason to conclude his life was in jeopardy? I think it is reasonable to think that someone willing to follow you because they are angry due to how you drive, then confront you at you Car window may be about to make more irrational and possible dangerous decisions.

No that’s not what happens. You really don’t know what the frick you are talking about. They arrested him because based on the evidence collected he shot and murdered someone. Now it’s going to the DA to see if they accepting what they charged him with.


You really in over your head here kid.

Yes I believe the guy had bad intentions. Based on the wording of the article, my opinion is that the guy desperately wanted to kick the guy’s arse. But yeah, if the guy was screaming I am going to kill you or something like that, that certainly changes things.

Thanks you proved my point. He was charged with murder. If it was self defense, he would have only been charged with poss of firearm by a convicted felon.


I know you are referencing a completely different case in New Orleans. However, LEOs are not judge, jury, prosecutors, or legislators.

Being arrested or charged for a particular crime doesn’t prove anything. It’s not uncommon to make an arrest and file charges initially, only to have those charges dismissed as the investigation unfolds.

The opposite also happens. A shooting appears justified initially, and no charges are filed. Only to have the investigation uncover additional facts that lead prosecutors to file charges down the road.

Also, the Caddo Parish DA is a Soros funded activist. His policy is that all shootings are presented before a grand jury. Neither law enforcement nor prosecutors have discretion whether or not to file charges.

A road rager doesn't follow you, get out, and gently tap on your window.


It’s nice to know that you were there and know exactly how the guy hit the window. Like I said, was it enough force to break the glass ? It doesnt take much.

It says nothing about him being charged with anything. Once again... incorrect information.

100% agree with everything you said. You are correct. Not all DA’s send cases to a grand jury, but I figured this one would.

Just saying if I shot and killed a guy inside my house and it’s clearly justified, I’m not getting arrested and charged with murder, or let go later by the cops like that dumass said.

They will probably plea him out to a lesser charge, but at worse he gets manslaughter.


You realize the guy isn’t dead right?

I didn’t even read the article lol. The OP said he was arrested. They have to charge you with something if you are arrested.

Additional details from Shreveport PD
quote:

Lieutenant Peter Darcy says he's not sure where it started, but it ended in the parking lot of Uptown Shopping Center in the 4800 block of Line Avenue.

Darcy says both men are 60 years old. He says the victim got out of his vehicle, approached the other car and began banging on the driver's window, trying to get him to get out of the vehicle.

"It appears that person inside that vehicle shot from inside the vehicle and hit that victim was hammering on his window to get out of that car, " said Darcy.

Running up to someone and banging on their car window over a road rage incident is about the dumbest thing you could possibly do, especially in Louisiana where it’s almost guaranteed most people are armed when driving.

Don’t start non, they’ll be non.

Exactly. And guess what, dude was found guilty of manslaughter and got 30 years.

Which is exactly what I said in this thread. That he’d probably take a plea for manslaughter.

This is the “nice” part of town too. This sort of violence is so normalized in Louisiana, even normal law abiding citizens barely will notice anything is wrong. You really get used to it.

Following him in to the parking lot, approaching his vehicle, then banging on his window is definitely "posing a threat."

If the dude has glass like that on his car, then really what was he afraid of?
