        Why should anyone be surprised? George Zimmerman is still walking around free as a bird. They apply this insane law randomly when it suits their needs. @marcorubio probably wrote the damn thing

        This shooter had a history of agressive behavior. He instigated an argument, threatened a women and her children, became more aggressive when confronted, and when pushed to the ground as a response to his aggression decided to kill someone. That’s not “protecting yourself”.

        Clearly the driver was trouble too. Parking in a handicapped space and assaulting someone.

        "Confronting" You mean was going to beat the bloody piss out of him for parking in a handicap spot? Sure he's in the wrong, but don't you think the progressive thing to do was report it, instead of violence??

        Driver says no other space avail but vid shows several empty spaces. Old guy has handicapped wife in car and asks driver to move car. Thug comes out and slams old guy into pavement w/o even asking what's going on. Thug picked on wrong guy. One less Thug!

        Watched this plenty of times and still feel that this murder. Getting thrown to the ground shouldn’t justify murder. The guy was shot while taking his first step walking away from the situation

        It’s really not. If that man didn’t run up and start yelling at his girlfriend he wouldn’t have been thrown to the ground. The man who did the killing started that whole situation and he shut a man walking away who was no longer a threat

        I think differently. When people are walking away they aren’t a threat and no law should justify shooting people who aren’t threats. Have a good day

        So many armchair quarterbacks... Apply some critical thinking and see different perspectives. It's not always black and white. The older guy got slammed to the ground while the aggressor stood over him. There's was the possibility of great bodily harm at that distance.

        So, if someone bumps into me, if I square off on them or even look threatening, its a bullet to the chest? SMDH
