Man who shot father in Florida '''stand your ground''' killing charged with manslaughter

This is an interesting development in the case where the shoved guy shot the guy who had pushed him over after an argument developed between the girlfriend and the shoved person about a handicapped parking space.

I'm a believer in the SYG law, but I agree, in this case, it did not apply. I'm sure at trial he will be found guilty.

Will be interesting & expensive.

If you saw the video, the guy may not have been alive to call the police. I wonder why someone would carry a legal concealed weapon if they cannot legally use it for self defense. Some have said that the shover was backing away. I didn't see it that way. I saw him back away only when he saw the gun.

Now let's wait and see if justice is actually served and the ammosexual that had been looking for a reason to shoot/kill someone for a while...gets what he deserves.

I watched the video several times IMO it appears to me that the pusher backed up when he seen the gun come out in an "O" Shyt moment with only second or two before he was shot. But, I believe he had time not to pull the trigger. Which IMO will get him charged.

I also IMO he didn't have push the guy so hard he landed several feet to payment.

It will be interesting to see what facts and arguments come out during the trial which may be warranted or which may rather be a politically motivated decision by the powers that be. After all, the sheriff released the shooter; the dead man is the one with a rap sheet. In any event, the taxpayers will be forking over many dollars before the trial is over and for the appeal if the defendant is found guilty. Stay tuned!

I have to feel sorry for the shooter charged with manslaughter. If he has any money, the defense attorney will take it all. And, even if he gets acquitted, his life will never be the same, and he may be in danger. I hope the prosecutor considered this in the decision to charge him, and that it was not a political decision.

So if you saw him backing away "only when he saw the gun," then you saw him BACK AWAY. There goes the self-defense argument. Why shoot to kill when the threat is leaving/ backing away?

You are talking about one second. No one will ever know what would have happened next, if he had not fired the gun. Also, he may not have seen him back away.

The guy could have been going to the truck for a tire iron to beat up or a gun to shoot the man he had brutally shoved to the ground. The dead man had a history of criminal violence as shown on his rap sheet.
