Popularity of stand-your-ground laws prompting more defendants in Charleston area to claim immunity

[SecularMotion]

Sheldon Singletary and the man who killed him on April 19, 2010, were friends.

The 42-year-old was invited that morning to Kelvin Shuler's home on Odessa Street in downtown Charleston to celebrate a wedding.

The party was a good time at first. People drank beer. They cooked. They joked.

At some point, though, the two friends started bickering and shouting. A witness said Shuler first slapped Singletary. They scuffled and knocked over chairs.

4. Only if they can shoot Brown and Black Skinned people at will

that is the true ultimate goal

3. SYG didn't produce this incident.

It might be relevant to the outcome of the trial though.
