My point is that if you willingly ignore an unimpeded opportunity to disarm your potential assailant, you forsake any future claim to self defense against said assailant. "Self-defense" means that the primary goal was self-preservation. His primary goal was clearly not just to avoid injury; he wanted to kill. If your primary goal is to kill, then that's not self-defense; that's murder.
Under the law it's clearly self defense, then clearly murder.
But only because he's just an average hardworking American. So he didn't have an automatic with 2 extra clips on his belt.
He's a pharmacist. With a bad back. Living in a hellhole where young blacks rob and murder honest folks day in and day out.
His primary goal is probably to live long enough to be able to retire someplace else.
He emptied his gun successfully defending himself and saved his customers from being murdered. He bravely chased the other POS off even though he was empty. It's clear the down POS posed no
immediate threat, but the reality is anyone who attempts to kill you will most likely remain a threat to your existence as long as they exist. Wounded criminals not only seek revenge but many have successfully sued the people who shot them.
The video shows things pretty clearly.
No doubt the punks threatened lives at gunpoint. (At this point their lives lose all value to society, IMO)
No doubt that one was shot in self defense and the other ran and left his partner like the coward he is.
No doubt the pharmacist shot the downed punk some more.
Maybe he was already dead, maybe not, but the world is a better place now that we're
certain he's dead.
Unfortunately, the 2 people who created him and molded him into a walking nightmare will never be held accountable or prevented from doing it again.
Unfortunately, an honest hardworking pharmacist lost his life too.
