In reply to the discussion: Yes I Shot That Kid - Brian Cloninger [View all]BainsBane
(53,001 posts)15. I'd like to hear more about the shooter's admission
That he said, "sure, I shot the kid" tells me he thought he was justified. I wonder if this isn't part of the influence of Stand Your Ground, like the guy in Florida invoked it after sneaking up on a barbecue and firing 11 plus shots, killing two and injuring a third.
