I have a friend who was convicted of manslaughter years ago. He got in a drunken fight with his best friend and the friend went down and hit his head.
A jury would have eaten him alive. He admitted that he was guilty of starting the fight and he was the one who caused the other guy to go down.
You can’t gun down a person for knocking on your door even if she is drunk and wrecked her car.
Why do some freepers need to defend every loser whack case, as long as he uses a gun?
Didnt say you could. Some of the facts do raise the possibility that she wasnt acting rationally.
He said it was an accident. that he shot her by accident.
Not sure how that happens but its plausible IMO.
Now you are sounding crazier than ever.
A part of you seems to recognize that, as you describe an alternative to gunning down a woman knocking on your front door. ""The proper response to a knock on the door in the middle of the night is to call 911 and have them on the line as you talk to the “knocker” through a window."".
I don’t see the need to be defending a panicky idiot gun owner who accidently kills someone knocking at his front door.
When you shoot an unarmed woman knocking on your front door, you are obviously doing something wrong.
Well you are assuming all she was doing was knocking. If someone starts banging on my door and acting irrationally at 3:30am I would be on edge as well.
Your use of “idiot gun owner” is quite interesting. So are you against all gun owners?
I’m an old Texan and a grew up around normal people and guns, I am assuming that some panicky modern idiot killed an unarmed woman on his porch.
You seem to be throwing everything you can out to create a reason for that.
yet you never answered the question
nuff said
As long as it was his own porch I see nothing wrong with him shooting it...

Oops!
If you about gun owners, it is as a gun owner and being around gun owners all my life that I can’t figure out why you want to defend panicky little goof balls who can’t handle themselves and get people killed.
I can see why you revealed that you felt sympathy with his fear and panic, and want to defend his incompetence, or worse.
Personally, this doesn’t sound like the kind of man who wins respect and sympathy in my world of gun owners.
now I see, you are just a confused person. I never expressed sympathy for him.
I just expressed there may be more to the story rather then jumping to conclusions and calling people all kinds of names.
‘... loudly banging on doors at X’’oClock in the dark morning? You don’t do things like that and not expect consequences.....
UMMM PERZAKLY L/M....AND WHAT WOULD HAVE BEEN WRONG WITH THIS LADY JUST .... STANDING IN THE YARD WAY WAY WAY BACK FROM THE DOOR THEN ... SCREAMING ‘HELP ME PLEASE I’M IN TROUBLE, PLEASE’ WITH HER HANDS UP PERHAPS...
NOBODY SHOOTS ANYBODY UNDER THAT CIRCUMSTANCE.......
Your determined and sustained and varying, defense of the guy, shows your sympathy with him, as does your expression of describing how you yourself would be “on edge” as a level of support for him killing a woman.
The guy is an embarrassment to men and gun owners, and he killed an unarmed woman on his front porch.
Not everything, or every loser, needs defending, just because he uses a gun.
Just
Can’t
Admit
When
You
Are
Wrong
You are wrong to keep defending this incompetent boobs misuse of a gun.
So far the evidence seems to support me, that is why it is going to trial, when an unarmed woman is gunned down on a man’s front porch, then it really looks bad for that man.
My understanding of this case...which surely could be incomplete....suggests that this was a genuine tragedy that *might* warrant a charge of negligent something-or-other brought against the shooter but,perhaps,not murder.
Situation came up last year around here. The person who had "gotten lost" took off into nearby woods. Police seemed to like the challenge just fine.
