Georgia Black Man Charged with Murder Claims He Shot at White Teens in Self-Defense

I was incredibly surprised to even see the races mentioned.

 

It sure is funny to see the left suddenly so gung-ho for the self-defense, defense.

Lolol.....if not for double standards!

 

This man is not Rittenhouse. This case is not Rittenhouse. From the information provided, this man had hundreds of options before firing that weapon. When firing that weapon recklessly, had he missed the car he was aiming at and hit another that wasn't even in that car, he would be guilty of murder. His actions were not a controlled situation and certainly not warranted. So how many on here have been involved in some type of nutcase road rage? Are you then okay to pull a gun and unload into that vehicle? What if you hit the stupid driver's 6-month old baby? He could have just as easy pulled a phone and dialed 911.

Guilty of no less than 2nd degree murder.

 

Doesn't make sense at all. Perpetrator still has weapon (car) and has attempted to run you off the road once, what's to stop him from doing it again? What is this move thing?
Do you apply the "move thing" in any self defense case? All Kyle Rittenhouse had to do was "move"!

 

umm no
did the one claiming self defense try to flee as in hitting the brakes turning around?
sounds more of a case of road rage

 

Rittenhouse made every attempt to free
did this one do the same? all he had to do hit hit the brakes and or turn around
he made no attempt to flee to put distance between him and the other car
any sensible persons reaction would be to move away from another car trying to hit you
this is a case of road rage nothing else

 

I had a similar incident where I was driving a mountain road on the way home from an event. No cell phone reception. Two lane road and then a short passing lane. I passed a truck that was going below the speed limit. He sped up and tailgated me with his KC lights on. Got to the point I could barely see. I slowed down and he persisted. Came to a stop and put it in park and had my wife lay down on the seat. Opened the camper window through which I aimed my 38 special at the driver, still with his KC lights on me. I was thoroughly visible. Don't know what it would have taken for me to actually pull the trigger, but that driver immediately shut off the KC's, put it in reverse, turned it around and hightailed beck to town (15 miles away). Now I know it is illegal to point a weapon at anyone, but I felt the life of my wife and myself might very well be threatened. Had any aggression escalated, I surely would have emptied that revolver. Self defense?

 

Did you NOT follow the case? He was running away and they caught up to him. Geeze.

 

You won't know this until the trial. If someone is going to push you off the road while moving, just what is he going to do if you are stopped? We really can't make a judgement until the truth comes out (if it ever does) I do know a car can be a deadly weapon and it's aggressive use is a serious threat!

 

Geeze, what are you saying? Who caught up to who? It was the defendant running away from what I read. He defended himself after they tried to run him off the road. Are you replying to the wrong person?

 

We'll have to wait to see all the evidence. That's all there is to it.

What do witnesses say? What, if anything, was thrown at the car? Did the teens make an audible threat? Did Wilson try to stop and let them go on? If the other vehicle also stopped and they surrounded his car, then things would be a little more simple.

 

Oh I agree. I think that everyone who fires a gun and claims self defence because they "feared" for their life when there were other options should be charged with murder or at least manslaughter.

 

Yeah I hear what you are saying. The press would not give a hoot about anything unless they could make race an issue!

 

Personally I would have stopped if I was armed.

 

It only gives you one side of the story. It’s also a very biased story making assumptions throughout the whole thing. It written in a one sided manner there is no doubt. But if the facts are as this article states I would say they have a claim to self defense. But there is no video proof so it’s not like Kyles case at all. Maybe like Zimmerman but not Rittenhouse.

I also have a hard time believing any article that is so stuck on race.

 

We don’t know any of that yet. It’s just his word. Need more details, because the series of events don’t add up, kind of like Jussie Smollet. Random
people just pull up to you at a stoplight yell obscenities and try to run you off the road? Then you brandish a weapon and they keep doing it instead of pulling away? Warning shot and still nothing? He couldn’t make a right turn? Sounds like a movie. He wasn’t surrounded by a mob and had no choice but to drive through people. He had to be shooting out the drivers side window. He had to choose to lower it aim and fire multiple times.

The story just doesn’t add up. But we’ll see.

 

Which he attempted to do. He attempted to extricate himself before firing rounds. Something which this man had plenty of opportunity but didn’t do.

 

you know this? How do you extricate yourself from a car intent on running you off the road. I'd like to know.

 

Nothing but the shooter can also be charged with murder and at least manslaughter to some degree, and that was my POINT before you started your rhetoric.

 

I told you. Turn away from them. Pick up a phone and call the police. Slow down or speed up. There’s a thousand different options you have before you start shooting at someone who cut you off lol

 

That we don't know. Pretty good chance that was not the case otherwise the shooter would have hit the driver before a passenger OR the shooter was shooting at the passenger's side of the truck...

Time will tell, in any outcome a innocent women was killed, not the driver... You'll see

 

Yup BOTH my main vehicles are equipped with Onstar and the other with bluetooth, 911 is as simple as a button on the wheel or rear view mirror

 

And shooting at someone in the back seat is self defense? He killed an innocent person NOT the one “attacking” him, if this was an attack at all and not just an argument. People just yell out the Nword at random strangers and say your life doesn’t matter? Doubtful.

 

Ha! Ha! Have you ever been in any type of threatening situation? Are you one of those who would call the police as you're being raped? So you think "bumper car" with full sized automobiles is any safer?

 

Actually the person in the back seat could have been innocent....or she could have been in the back seat yelling Ni^^&*! We don't know. As I said before, at worst, she was a participant, at least collateral damage to self defense if the jury finds self defense. A whole lot we don't know. If it was collateral damage, it would be perhaps manslaughter.
