I personally don’t think they were trying to protect anyone’s property , I think these hillbilly’s are guilty as charged. Just my opinion. Might be wrong. Might.

What I take from the video is he was running towards the truck the armed fellow was on the left side of the truck so the runner cut right only to have the armed guy cut him off in front of the truck. Fight or flight at this point but this situation was created by the shooter. Then "dog pack mentality kicked in and the other guy fired. This could have all been avoided. As for the tough guys here. I pray you never find yourself in this situation. It's heavy on the soul.

I remember the case of a neighbor seeing smoke and flames from the attic of a home on fire at night and called the FD. They showed up and knocked on the door, as well as every window they could get to, trying to wake up anyone inside. Nobody answered after a long time so they breached the door to keep anyone from getting killed from the fire and to put it out. The guy who finally woke up barked off a bunch of rounds at them as they made entry. That's why a responsible gun owner doesn't shoot at a target they can't identify. I've arrested a lot of burglars and never had one of them wearing bunker gear.

Bunker gear is what firefighters wear to protect them from heat and flames.

I find it strange that the rittenhouse case got all the coverage and this one isn't getting much at all.

The media has already done its job. Just look at what the good guys are being called on here, hillbillies, vigilantes, rednecks. Instead of being called former police officer and military. Meanwhile the criminal is being portrayed as a choirboy instead of the felon and thief he was.

I do not know if those guys were racist, hillbillies etc.

I do know they are not the sharpest pencils in the drawer. You simply do not chase people down and put a gun on them.

Now that guy that died. Also an idiot. I’m not running at a man with a scatter gun. Im cooperating until the law shows up or I’m turning and running the opposite direction. His actions at that very moment got him killed.

I do not know how this deal shakes out. But those men all their families friends etc wish they had more sense.
Same goes for the man that got shot.

IMO, it boils down to misjudgement that someone would stop and give up with a gun pointed at them. The guy would still be alive if he had done that and just waited for the police to show up. He would probably never have been charged with a crime and the three guys would have never seen a prison cell. The victim was most likely convinced he was about to be shot and decided to fight back. No winners and only losers all the way around on this one.

If nothing else, these cases hopefully get gun owners to think things through before grabbing a weapon, and in this case, go chasing after someone.

guilty for the shooter
