It will be interesting to see how it plays out and if there are any charges brought against the store owner. While there is a Stand Your Ground law at the same time you can't shoot a fleeing felon and it looked like the kid was trying to flee so stabbing him in the act of fleeing is likely not lawful. The thing is that people are sick of this crap and if any charges are brought against the shop owner I doubt a jury would convict him. He should be more concerned about a potential civil case that could have serious financial implications. Then again I doubt a jury is going to side with a brazen criminal and would probably side with the shop owner believing the punk got what he deserved.

20+ years ago I was watching the aftermath of the Santana High School shooting in San Diego (this was after Columbine, early 2001). Shooter was taken alive after killing two and wounding 13 (per Wikipedia he was apprehended while reloading) - and I remember at the time wondering aloud at the long-term societal implication if he would have been simply taken to the athletic field and executed... would we have seen such a rise in school/public shootings?

Problem is “ he” wasn’t being attacked. Im not defending bad guys just trying to see how a court might. He literally moves to the bad guy who clearly went straight to the goods. Then throats him when he turns to flee. They guy was already stabbed multiple times before he even threw a punch. It will be an interesting case as stated

I can’t say I wouldn’t do the same if I were in the “attendants position” and part of this will come down to would a “normal person” react far far differently then this guy did. Plus the kicker with the stand your ground laws..

but I bet his lawyer will wish he didn’t give that televised statement lol
