She was safe in her car. Guy wasn’t up in her face in anything at her window. If he was then it’s stand your ground. So she’s safe in her car and the guy is what just yelling at her from a decent distance? She then gets out with the gun? That’s not stand your ground.


Is there video showing this? Because if so, she may be in trouble

Im pretty sure if someone is unarmed and in my yard shouting threats at me, I cant go outside and shoot them. And thats on my own property.


I’m not a lawyer but I think you can, especially if they are walking towards you
quote:

is part of stand your ground brandishing a weapon and threatening someone with it?


How do you shoot someone without brandishing a weapon?
quote:

I'm sure if we could hear the audio we'd hear threatening to shoot the guy with it.


The audio will be very determining.

quote:always thought the first person to eat a raw oyster must've been hungry AF... Same with crawfish, but I’m sure glad both did.


Crawfish are way more regular looking food than oysters or clams or scallops. Mainly because moving and resembles other edible life forms.

I agree with a poster earlier in the thread that the first person to eat an oyster must have seen an otter or similar sea mammal crack one open and eat it, and I’m sure glad they did.

Another thing I wonder, who was the first person to domesticate and ride a horse? He must have been an absolute legend, riding into the neighboring camp

Be a good person. Provide for, love, and protect your family. It’s not that difficult.


It’s extremely difficult, just not complicated.
quote:

Based solely on the video that was provided. She got out of the car brandishing the gun.

Go watch the longer video. I think the interaction is much longer than either video but in the longer one you can see him before the gun was pulled. Both should have de-escalated the encounter but that could be said for every single shooting ever.
quote:

You dont get to pull a gun because somebody disagrees with you


Do you know why she pulled her gun?
quote:

I still don't see any "charging" though.

He doesn’t charge like a bull, but he does repeatedly approach and when he was shot he was walking right at her and was within a car length of her.
quote:

My point was that parking spots aren’t worth ruining lives, just find another one


But she didn’t shoot him for a parking spot. She was parked. She shot him because he kept advancing on her despite her showing him the gun and repeatedly retreating.
quote:

Again, could she have run away? - YES
Was her life in danger? - NO
Is pulling a sidearm and engaging in an argument defensive behavior? - NOPE

He also could have walked away

There is no way any jury would agree that a woman being aggressively approached by a man in the heat of an argument should not be in fear of great bodily harm.

I want to see what happened before the sidearm. If he was repeatedly following her around trying to start a fright, it MIGHT be justified.

Let’s let the facts play out and see what really happened.
quote:

just replace with 'waffle house counter' or 'climbing through mcdonalds drive through window' in the scenario and her actions are identical, minus the firearm.


If a ma is climbing through theMcDonalds window or trying to come around the counter to fight a Waffle House employee I hope he gets shot.
quote:

Appears she retreated several times, and he followed


Don’t know why she went into her car to get the gun but the video does show her constantly backing up. The guy also had every opportunity to simply walk away. This looks like a stand your ground

Wow that’s an outrageous amount of low test beta males all participating in the same activity at once. May be a world record.


If this was an MLS or even a Euro league game, sure.

But this is America against the World, quite literally.
quote:

I was listening to Dan Carlin lately and he mentioned how ancient armies would just show up in a place and nobody that lived there knew who they were.


Where? Did he release a new show?
I want to know what the first person who saw the Grand Canyon thought, or the MS River in LA and what they thought.

Or the first person who took a boat of some kind across a body of water that you couldn’t see land from, and subsequently what the people on that land thought when some guy showed up on a boat beyond where they knew land was.
quote:

What Miami did against Reed and to a little lesser extent Chambliss needs to be studied by our defense all off-season.


2 first round picks on the D-Line that allows you to drop 7 or 8 really helps.

This. If you’re the least bit undisciplined, a mobile qb will kill you. Sometimes you can be the most disciplined and an absolute freak will still simply beat you (Cam, Vince Young, Tebow)
