A jury has found a delivery driver not guilty in the shooting of a YouTube prankster who was following him around a mall food court earlier this year
I really did not, what else is there to interpret from his words?
as long as you feel threatened and you have past trauma with mentally ill people, you can shoot them in a public place and call it self-defense, it’s just how the US works.
Obviously, that being on the receiving end of a someone’s mental health crisis is often frightening and upsetting.
Your interpretation, that they meant that “it’s OK to shoot the mentally ill”, is absolutely ridiculous.
How is that a ridiculous when OP was defending a guy who shot someone by saying “every person in this thread that cannot fathom how he feared for his life has never had personal experience dealing with someone with severe mental illness” and “If you think you can just assume a stranger you encounter who shoves a phone in your face is mentally healthy, you’re missing some facts of life”.
What in the world else do you think that could have meant other than that it’s okay to fear for your life and defend yourself with deadly force because someone is acting mentally ill?
