    Ok great.

    Sock the next person in the mouth who raises their voice.

    See what happens.

    Don't forget to roll down the window before you defend your honor.

    Except he didn't fall back a step then freeze until shot.

    He was stepping laterally to the guy on the ground when shot.

    He took 3 steps backwards then one towards the shop door (away from the shooter) when he was shot.

    So now cursing another man's spouse out is a disagreement. Smfh.

    I don't go around cursing out folks who park in handicapped spots or happen to run a red light.

    So what kind of example was Drejka setting in front of her children cursing her out?

    How about minding your own damn business and don't curse out other men's spouses, especially when their kids are involved. Just a thought.

    I don't think they were married and yes they were having a disagreement and I believe he said she was cursing him. Equal rights.

    There is no evidence he did until she argued back.

    That's it's wrong to take up spaces the disabled need violating the law.

    It's all our business when someone is violating the law to help disabled persons, the woman should have simply put in it reverse and parked legally.

    She was still his spouse, they lived together and had children together. No Drejka approached her cursing and yelling that is not a damn disagreement.

    Who approached who?

    Oh that's right it would have been ok if she accidentally parked there.

    Call the police they are paid to deal with folks who park in places where they shouldn't.

    This thread certainly will not die.

    Superbad - after reflecting on the many posts in this thread I have come around to your way of thinking on this. If I was on the jury I would vote to convict. So for what is is worth, you have convinced at least one person here.

    Amazing how you think a man who verbally attacks a woman and her children is an upstanding citizen. Smfh.

    I am not saying that McGlockton's actions were the right ones, but men react on instinct when they think their family is in danger.

    Not to mention an established history of starting confrontations and using his magic penis substitute to escalate them. It's truly surprising that it took this long for the convicted felon to take a life.

    Again putting words in my mouth that aren't there. This is the longest flounce I've ever encountered.

    Shoot someone who has stopped their assault upon your mere production of the threat of deadly force, we all know exactly what will happen.

    Dont forget to let us know so we can put some money on your books ghostfacekilla

    Agreed. When I thought more about this, I considered how I would react if someone approached my wife in a threatening manner.

    He said he wasn't yelling and cursing and if she had done so accidentally she should have backed out it. You've been clear in defended illegal parking and an illegal physical assault 'nuff said.

    So you naturally believe what he says. Bottomline is he approached her vehicle and put the whole incident into motion.

    You have been clear in defending a killer and trying to act like you are so damn wholesome. When you parked illegally or ran a red light it was an ACCIDENT. Smfh.

    This didn't happen out of the blue or in a vacuum. The convicted killer has an established history of starting confrontations like this and using his magic penis substitute to escalate them and intimidate his targets. He was a bomb waiting to go off, and he finally did. A prime example, if ever there was one, of who proposed red flag laws are supposed to help protect us from.

    The shooter was targeting the thug. If you were the thug/target why would you stand in front of the car and your beloved children and wife? To attract the gunfire to them?
    Think it through.

    In fact, everyone else in the video was able to get yards away before the shot was fired. Have you actually watched the video?

    The shooter was the only thug in this equation. I hope he enjoys solitary, because he won't survive a week in gen-pop.

    The thug stopped to wait for his victim to lower his gun. Would not have been long.
    See how long you can stay in the position the shooter was in when he fired the shot.

    Yes the shooter was assaulted. Yes the dead guy would have been arrested if the shooter had stopped at this point and left it to the police. But there is no way that being pushed to the ground justifies shooting and killing someone. What an absolutely horrible precedent that would be.

    And the attacker had a history of battery and HE was the bomb that went off.

    I have not hunted since childhood, but I do let hunters take deer from my woods.
    They use bait and blinds and are always looking for more people who can use all the meat. The deer population is out of control. Freezers fill up fast.

    And you naturally believe what the woman said. He was walking into the store and pointed it out and argument ensued and I have clearly said I accept the jury verdict that he pulled the trigger too soon. It is you who are defending two criminals not me.
