Play stupid games, I have zero empathy. [/quote] yeah but you also have to have compassion for your fellow man or this earth turns in to hell. Shoplifting is a Class c Misdemeanor.. If we are giving out the death penalty for shoplifting its gonna be a really scary world [/quote] Was it "just" shoplifting, or were there other things going on that involved weapons and the fear of ones life. That counts for something, something worth a bit more than the lives of the thieves. [/quote] Two things we know about the criminals. There were three of them (disparity of force) and one made an aggressive move. The first time I watched it I thought he was going after the owner. Why not just grab some merch on the way out? Those two things help the case for self defense. You can always second guess watching someone ten times, but the first time I saw it I did think the jump over the counter was to get to the owner. Now he grabbed cigarettes instead but the owner reacted so fast it was almost simultaneously. I think the problem the owner has is the last two stabs. [/quote] I think a sane jury would acquit him even on the last two stabs. Adrenaline thrusting you there in the moment. This was clearly not calculated. If the thief didn't say anything, would it make it more convincing to a jury? For me, I give the shop keeper the benefit of doubt and do not second guess as I was not there and can only imagine what he was thinking. I'd probably react the same way. What I'm saying is, you end up not thinking too clearly when adrenaline and the fear of death kicks in. [/quote] Bullshit , The big Asian was holding him while he tried to get away just so he could kill him. All the way to the last stab in the back of the neck that killed him. [/quote]

Look, I get it, crime is totally out of control and even worse, it's intentionally being allowed to be.
However, this one just really doesn't sit well. Maybe it's the innocence & fear in the perp's voice as he exclaims, "I'm dead..." but really not feeling like this needed to go down like that. Fucking tragic all around for this country.
What do y'all think?
