The problem with all of this is you're forgetting the primary reason an 84 year old man would shoot an unknown black teenager on his front porch. It's not because he's a racist.
These are the kinds of 'accidents' that happen when the leftist media spends all of it's time causing division, and creates a lawless environment as well as Soros DAs refusing to enforce the law, thus making more and more black teenagers willing to break the law.
When your society is falling apart it doesn't matter what the reason is for the accident because the root cause is the following:
- A lack of respect for the law and authority figures
- A highly charged racial environment
- Fear by the population
- A communist movement at work trying to cause chaos so they can destroy our society and then rebuild it
Whether or not the kid was up to no good isn't the issue. The issue is that he was out after dark and he got shot because his parents weren't doing their jobs. The left created the environment and now they're taking advantage of it. I wouldn't believe a God damned thing they said in any of their news reports about it.
The problem is you whip out gotcha questions. Why was he there after dark? That information was provided and all that happens is that you look incredibly ill informed by asking that question. Why was he there? How could he get an address wrong? Again information that was out there.
The address he was supposed to go to was 115th Terrace. That’s where his siblings were. Street comes up first alphabetically. So the understandable way that the mistake took place is right there for the rest of us. A simple mistake caused by alphabetical listing.
You blame his parents next. They were not doing their jobs. When I got my license I was asked to perform certain errands for my parents. They didn’t say so but in addition to getting me practice in driving it gave me responsibilities to meet. Vital for the development of a boy to a man.
I’m not the one painting him as a racist. You are. You are by your own actions. Explaining how his reaction was wise considering how dangerous Blacks are. But the reality is that is all hype. There was a less than 1% chance it was a home invasion scenario. Statistically speaking there just aren’t that many incidents.
It is a question of your basic assumptions. If someone rings my bell I assume they want something. I may take a precaution and tuck a pistol in my pocket or waistband. However because I am not a self righteous fool I know that my actions will be judged based upon reasonable man rules. And for that standard restraint is the key.
If the old man was that afraid why open the door? The inner door is a much more solid barrier between him and the perceived threat isn’t it?
Opening the door with that level of supposed fear doesn’t make sense. But it does make sense if you are aggressive. It is an act of aggression. A challenge. What are you doing on my porch? Why are you ringing my bell? Why are you disturbing me? Get the **** out of here you little shit. Get off my land.
Maybe he imagined himself as Clint Eastwood in Gran Torino. I don’t know. I’m guessing. But the problem is that the known facts don’t match your assertions.
The reason the old man is facing charges is that his actions were not reasonable. The fear you proclaim isn’t reasonable, and that is the standard for Stand Your Ground. Your fear must be reasonable to the average man standard.
Your argument is we should be afraid. That means you know that the argument doesn’t meet that standard.
