For anyone who has only watched the sanitized version, the full length with the anchor shot(maybe several) in kinda changes the legal aspect of things.

It’s hard to tell from the video, but maybe he was still moving with the gun in his hand. Just because you’re shot up and on the ground doesn’t mean you can’t still shoot back. Obviously you can’t shoot back with a toy gun, but the guy who did the shooting didn’t know that until after the fact. It will be interesting to see how this plays out. I know we all want to be the one to make a scumbag take a dirt nap, but the time to do that was before he turned his back and headed for the door. At least in the days of video cameras everywhere and courts packed with liberal judges.

I can answer it for them and clear up the confusion. The truck is a 1973.

Ok 73-76.5. Allow a little confusion.

I feel like some of us aren't watching the same video......

dead dude was more or less dying, on the floor. Dude put a bullet in his skull at point-blank when he was lying on the ground. What am I missing?

I’m not saying that didn’t happen. I’m saying that I personally couldn’t see in the detail of being there in person, what the guy on the ground was or wasn’t doing. Dying isn’t the same as dead.

lol, im not arguing that. What I am arguing is the hero will get charges. Id no-bill him if I was on the jury.

So, I was able to zoom in on the video. Bad guy drops the gun when he hits the ground. Good guy is going to have serious problems.

The guy probably doesn't do the gunfighting stuff often, I would imagine he had some excitement going on.
Honestly, I would shake his had, get him some training and then No Bill him on the spot.
The "I'm no shi+ scared and want to end the fight permenantly" isn't a wrong reaction based on what the guy on the floor is doing. If he's crawling towards his gun mag dump on him.
