How can you claim to "stand your ground" when you're stalking someone?
How can you claim to "stand your ground" when you started and ended a confrontation far away from where you were "standing your ground?"
Doesn't Neighborhood Watch mean you watch out for criminal activity, report it to the police and not try to stop it?
Is it really strange to see a teenager outside with a hoodie when it's raining?
What kind of burglar wanders around a neighborhood in full view of anyone who cares to look and then stares at a potential witness to his upcoming crime?
In listening to the gunshot 911 call, there are several pleas for help. One is almost simultaneous with the shot. Why would someone yell for help a split second before firing his gun at "the aggressor?" Isn't that odd?
Why didn't John Doe provide the details he later gave to the police when he called the 911 dispatcher, instead of only saying "there are two guys wrestling near my porch?"
Where's the rest of the evidence?

I think it was an Orlando station and from a few weeks ago.
