In reply to the discussion: Fellow shot at theater was texting his 3 year old daughter [View all]If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck not to mention it looks like a duck, then it is probably safe to assume its a duck.
Let's see angry old white man with a gun, dead young man and popcorn on the floor. All things point to angry old man shooting young guy. The reason just makes it even worse. What kind of human being shoots a person for texting in a theater? Oh wait he was taller then the old fart with the gun so old guy was scared or felt threatened so he shots him.
Stand your ground is a joke and needs to be expunged from this country's laws. There is no reason to take a gun to a movie theater unless you are a crazy person that is intent on killing someone.
If the young mans texting was causing the old guy such great bodily harm he really should have just left went to the management and gotten his money back. He surly did not have to kill the texter.
I don't care if the young man shoved the old fart, or that he (the old fart) was smaller the young guy. The old guy is NOT the victim, never was. The victim is dead. And why is he dead? Oh yeah this old guy shot him, that's why. Pretty clear cut.
Of course the old dude might have money and could hire Zimmerman's lawyer and argue his client is old suffers from post trauma from years service on the force, or maybe dementia alzheimer's ect... But that would then lead to the idea of maybe with these mental defects why was the old guy even allowed to own a gun?
