Confrontation over Deer

The woman squalling in the background is the smartest one of the bunch, but it's funny at the end that she is worried he is destroying her yard. I guess she won't be on the garden tour this year after all.

Ole Boy with the shovel originally had a hand gun in his hand. He went and put it down for the shovel.

Makes you wonder if you go to someone's house to start crap, how many time to you need to get hit in the head to finally leave?

11 Years as a State Game Warden, and a
CJ degree, i’ll throw my opinion in .

I do not know the whole story. I do not know if the subject that was struck, was the aggressor. It is a tiny video. I could not see what , if anything , the subject who was struck had in his hands.

Both the 2 x4 yielding man, and the shovel yielding man, would absolutely be arrested for Aggravated Battery.

If i was the subject in the white shirt, or his friend in the passenger side of cab, i would have shot dead the subject who used the 2 x 4, then the shovel yielding subject. Unless, as i said, i cannot see what the subject had in his hands , in the video. But if i was the subject in the white shirt, empty handed, and was hit with the 2 x 4, i would have killed him dead.

If the white shirt victim went there to the others house and started sheet, he is the aggressor. Technically , aggressors cannot claim self defense. But, if the use of deadly force was also not in line ( 2 x4, shovel ) then the visitor could immediately kill both if he had a hidden weapon.

Totality of circumstances would apply.
I doubt that video supplies all. Whats the feud over ? Any previous threats? What did white shirt go there for there?

Yep. They rig up Irish Spring bars in the trees, turn to squirrel hunting, etc

The way I see it, I think the guy in white came to confront them about something they did. Not enough info to determine who is in the right on whatever occurred.

1. Never go on someone’s property to start an altercation regardless if you’re justified in your anger

2. Old man with 2x4 appeared to only want to keep him at bay and make him leave. He swung when the guy stepped too close. Reasonable action

3. Skinny guy was egging it on and trying to escalate things and just being a redneck. Shovel was unnecessary imo after the guy was already bleeding pretty bad and not much of a threat. I’d argue it was excessive and assault at that point

4. Guy destroyed property intentionally when leaving, which is a crime regardless of if his anger is justified or not

Point a gun at me and tell me to sit down and I’m making you shoot me. Everybody thinks they’re ready to shoot somebody until it’s time to do it
