In general, we presume innocence. But when we know that a killing has occurred and can definitively identify who committed the act, our presumptions are supposed to shift. Now we are supposed to presume guilt, and it is the shooter who must prove that his actions were justified

What a load of horse stuff. You never presume guilt until evidence proves guilt.

“What a load of horse stuff. You never presume guilt until evidence proves guilt.”

You are 100% correct I took issue with the statement in the article too. Knowing that a killing has occurred and knowing who the shooter is does nothing to the presumption of innocence and it remains the prosecutions burden to prove that the act was not in self defense if that is that stated reason for the shooting!

What are you talking about, prole? This is Obama's America now. If you're white, you're guilty until proven innocent.

Need to remember this the next 1000 times some thug guns down innocents. Gonna be a lot of Brothers out there trying to prove they’re innocent.
