It’s almost as if the whole “good guy” narrative is really, ultimately just about race and politics, and giving white conservatives (and specifically the police) a justification for shooting people. Huh.
Stand your ground! (I.e. “go wherever you want and do whatever you want, and then claim you were fearful as a defense.”) That the state is one of the few with no “stand your ground” law hardly makes a difference, as it just means there’s no legally defined point at which he needed to retreat, and creates more ambiguity that is useful in a defense.
