Man charged after fatally shooting suspect who allegedly tried to rob him in Queens: Police
I will never be on a jury up there, but if I were: NOT guilty.

KEW GARDENS, Queens (WABC) -- A man in Queens has been charged after he shot and killed another person who was allegedly trying to rob him, police reported.
Officials say the shooting happened in a driveway on 82nd Avenue in Kew Gardens at around 2 a.m. Wednesday.
The 32-year-old was armed with a sharp object and attempted to rob a 65-year-old of money and cigarettes, authorities said.
The 65-year-old, identified as Charles Foehner, pulled a sliver handgun and shot him as many as five times.
In surveillance video viewed by Eyewitness News, the assailant confronts Foehner from 40 feet. Foehner waves him off, raising his left hand, but the assailant continues to approach aggressively. With that, Foehner draws his gun from 20 feet. When the assailant waves an object and lunges, Foehner fires from 8 feet.

That's actually perfect for this situation.

You exaggerate.
But you know they could release him without charges pending a grand jury investigation.

Good use of our courts?

His other big mistake was exercising his 2nd Amendment rights.

You have gone from defending abortion for ten years olds and book-reading by trannies (pedos?), to defending criminals in your personal war against the innocent. You are such a goose-stepper…

He deflects in order to defend the indefensible. It’s the preferred tactic of the “leftist extremist intellectual.”

Glad I live in an open carry state.

Incidentally, that is EXACTLY what is happening as to any potential charges from the shooting itself. He HAS NOT been charged, and apparently WILL NOT be charged, per the prosecutor's office.
He was arrested for POSSESSION of a firearm in violation of state law. He does not even claim that he legally owned the weapon, apparently.

Probably not. That would require reading. Or research.
The incident happened on Wednesday. He was promptly released on bail. He was arraigned on Friday, and he was NOT charged with homicide. In fact, the prosecutor said that he WILL NOT be charged with homicide.

1) I have simmering outrage
2) I will drop it it/when his charges are dropped
3) I’ll be angry if he has to go to trial

It’s pretty asinine to charge someone with a weapons charge relating to an event where they were forced to justifiably defend themselves with said weapon.
But the political narrative is “guns are bad” so the politicians (which is what district attorney’s are) charged him.

Progressives will go after you with a vengeance if you protect yourself, particularly from a minority or a gay.

Because he believes the legal system is perfect and just.

I don't agree with NY law on ownership or possession of weapons, but it IS the law up there.
And this guy illegally owned this gun LONG before he used it to defend himself. That violation is independent of the shooting.
