It was a tragedy for both. Two lives are ruined and you resort to stand your ground statute. What is fucking wrong with you. You're justifying murder?? You have a warped understanding of 'stand your ground laws'. You should be a patient at your own mental healthl facility.
“Stand your ground” and that entire culture breeds events such as this. Own it.
It was manslaughter at worst. The judge even reminded the jury that a conviction for manslaughter was an option.
Also:
There were zero black jurors.
The verdict was NOT justice.
If I had been on that jury I probably could have been persuaded to vote for manslaughter. But in a “Stand your ground” state like Texas???
I might also have been persuaded to vote for self defense.
Anyone who believes justice was served with that verdict should never be allowed on a jury.
We. Told. Them. So.
