Sheriff rejects popcorn killer’s ‘stand your ground’ defense: ‘Why didn’t he move seats?’

18. it what world is this ok

Why would you write a law like this with no duty to retreat? This nutjob picked this fight by walking out of the theater and coming back to his same seats and engaging the victim a second time he was looking for a conflict because he was armed and had no intention of backing down. A gun gave him power he didnt naturally have and he used it. He left, came back and picked it back up again....why not move to a different seat and enjoy your movie and be done with it...nope...gun says i dont have too...he made a choice to re-engage and that choice got soneone killed. This is the ulitimate "blame the victim"...pick a fight...shoot your victim...claim SYG because "the person hit me and i feared for my life...i mean look at my face...*queue tears*" and scene!...shooter home by sundown.
