There was a road rage incident in the parking lot.

---

We still don't know all of the facts except that he blocked her and then moved. We don't know if there was anything happening before the clips we see. She could be the one raging.

quote:

---

He left the spot and parked far away. After parking, he approached her spot.

---

He had to approach her spot to get to the store from where he parked. Also, she exited the vehicle with the weapon before he arrived. He also seemed to be going past her, but she is saying something to him and then takes steps towards him with the weapon drawn.

quote:

---

I have a firearm in my vehicle. It isnt so I can take it inside stores. It is in the event that someone approaches my vehicle. There is a pattern of violence in America that starts with road rage and escalates when someone "aggressively approaches" afterward.

---

Then you had better be smart about using it. She did not have to exit the vehicle with weapon drawn if she was afraid of what you speak of.

quote:

---

When he approached, she didn't shoot him. As a matter of fact, she retreated around a car. And he continued pursuit.

---

Means nothing at all, especially if she can't articulate why she exited the vehicle with the weapon drawn. She could be considered the aggressor from the point she left the vehicle with the weapon.

quote:

---

If she was malicious, she would have shot him at the first approach.

---

Not necessarily, she could have been working her nerve up, trying to bait him etc.

Remember, this is in a public space, and they both have a right to be there no matter which was in the right over the parking spot dispute. You can't just pull a firearm and claim a certain amount of space because you had an argument over a parking space. Involving a firearm in a verbal dispute that had ended, remember he went and parked elsewhere and she pulled the weapon while he wasn't there, is escalation and she may be able to explain why she exited the vehicle with the gun but maybe not, we need to know more details and audio or witness accounts of what was said.

You sound like the prosecution in the Rick Chow case. He ran 100+ yards out of his store with a gun. The kid left the premises of his store. The prosecution kept saying how wrong it was to chase after a kid over a water bottle. His lawyer destroyed that by asking if that’s illegal to run out of his store with a gun. Is it illegal? That’s what I want to know. Do you have a right to step out of your car with a loaded weapon in that situation? It will be interesting to see it play out.

---

The situation is nothing like that case. This is in a public parking lot arguing over a public parking space and like posted above he was blocking her out of the space, no false imprisonment etc. No laws were broken other than probably calling each other names etc. They both had a right to be there.

She will have to articulate why she introduced the gun. Maybe she can do so, maybe not.

I wouldn't read too much into her not being charged immediately. Politics is always involved when race is in play and I'm sure the big holiday weekend was factored in. They will take their time and have everything lined up no matter which way they go.

What about every person that either open carries or concealed carries. Is there any real difference in this situation? Was it illegal or threatening in any way for her to exit her car?

---

LOL are you really comparing legal carring a weapon to getting out of your car with a loaded weapon in hand while in the middle of an argument over a parking spot in a public parking lot? :lol: :lol:

If you don't see the difference, then you are beyond reason and hope.

Where did you see this? This was not in the video or stated in the article posted.

---

That's the problem. People are making proclamations without all of the info.

Around 40 seconds in this video. Note, I'm not claiming this is a good source for the complete story, it is just the first result from my search.

I didn't dv but you are probably getting them because you are making way too many assumptions and acting like you have a clear understanding of what everyone's motivations were.

For instance, him "blocking" her for a few minutes. We have no idea of what actually happened. maybe he parked in the space, and she was throwing a fit and he finally said the hell with it a moved so she could have the space to try to end the crap. Or maybe he was actually blocking her and acting like he was going to ram her. We just do not know.

She should not have exited the vehicle with the gun drawn. If she wasn't in fear, then don't draw the gun. If she was then call 911 and sit tight with the firearm ready until LEO arrives.

We have no idea what his motivations were either. Was he threating to break her neck or was he saying her pulling a gun over a parking spot is retarded?

Guessing and proposing what if is fine but too many on here act like they know enough to give an opinion with any weight and no one does right now.

Tell me something, how about Trayvon feeling threatened and defending himself from a guy stalking him at night with a gun

---

Travon was seen looking in a window in an area with break-ins. As a side fact he had encrypted pictures on his phone of stolen jewelry etc. on his bedspread that were suppressed. He was capable of just going home but purposely circled the block to ambush Zimmerman from behind a bush, where tools used in the burglaries were found. He was no "child" and was not in fear of his life.

Zimmerman is a POS but so was Travon and Travon started the violence.

As for this case, there will be more evidence to fill in the gaps and getting emotional and rushing judgement does no good. We need to know what caused all of this and her to pull her firearm and what everyone saw/heard leading up to this to cause them to record etc.

Somebody needs to add her to this. Dude was probably high or drunk or maybe just stupid.

Pretty good field for this one

Will the park be providing their own chair to hold the replay monitor or will Peak bring old reliable?

LOL. But that is the thing...

They have the college QBs there to sucker all those high school kid's parent's into sending their kids to the camp.

It is basically a football version of those cheer camps/competitions that are nothing more than a way to make the promoters/hosters like Disney etc. $$$$.

The better question for me has always been, why don’t they hold this thing at OM?
