Black man shoots white man who attacks him, unprovoked. Found to be justified. What? No Riots?

For the most part, white folks don’t idolize thugs.
Hence, no riots.

Whoa to any white man who defends himself in this manner and doesn't have a CCW permit. I wonder if this guy did.
Not that I believe any of us should need permission.

It is true that more black people murder white people than vice versa, but that is to be expected when you consider that black people have a much higher murder rate. No, it's to be expected when Blacks learn that they won't be held accountable in the same way Whites will.

Stand your ground laws mean that you do not have to submit to a beating by
white racists any more than white men or women are required by law to submit to a beating by a
black mob.
= = = = = = = = = = = = =
Interesting wording.
Call the White (idiots) racists and the black (idiots) a mob.

Florida is a CCW and a stand your ground state.
Attack another at your own damned risk.

Williams shot Dakota Fields, of Fort Myers, three times as the 24-year-old rushed toward him, the report said. Good on him. A thug is a thug, skin color notwithstanding.

From the looks of the video, the two parties had some sort of interaction before entering the restaurant...probably in the parking lot.

Well good for him. Wonder what happened to all the attacker's retard friends?
Fields died six miles down the road from the restaurant after the SUV he and friends left in struck a car at the foot of the Edison Bridge.
To: Bloody Sam Roberts
Who instigated what would seem to play an important part in the investigation. If some party incites an argument leading to a physical altercation and then pulls a gun and shoots the person he or she aggravated, then they're liable for serious charges.
Just exchanging insults is not the same as instigating something. But if you've got a gun and the other person doesn't, I would think deliberately provoking a confrontation could lead to serious consequences for you if the end result is the other person being shot and killed. However, we still don't know all the details.

Read the report. The white men in this case were being AHs, punched the black guy in the face for no reason, hurled insults and racial epithets, and additionally were drunk. Black guy was minding his own business and brushed off the insults. The deceased individual charged the black guy after the latter demonstrated that he was armed. Witness statements and video evidence concur. No charges against the black guy, one white guy has attained room temp, and charges are pending against at least one other of the white guys. Justice appears to have been served, and I congratulate the black guy for his actions and for his aim.

No problem here. I was just making a general statement. Sometimes it takes a while for all the pertinent info to emerge. Especially in the light of recent national incidents.
