MAGAtard shoots someone dead for picking up trash

[destriero]

I am not condoning shooting a person over a yard sign. It appears (from the news story) that they confronted the person in their yard (driveway) during the theft. The situation escalated somehow because the women's husband was charged with assault. IMO this is not a situation where they just looked out the window saw the person with the yard sign and shot them from the house.

I was making clear that the OP's thread title is a totally incorrect description of what happened. This not about "picking up trash" -- it is about theft -- and deadly force used on the homeowner's property while the perpetrator was caught in the act of the theft. Does this justify deadly force in the situation -- over a yard sign -- well you better check your state laws. Does it justify deadly force if the thief and her companion(s) assaulted the couple in their driveway when confronted? I will let the court system sort the entire thing out. Not enough information at this point.

Stealing a political sign of this type does not reach the level of petty theft. Perhaps trespassing. I had someone try to sell me meat out of their trunk -> told him to leave -> wouldn't move his freezer truck -> wife recorded asking him to leave -> meat guy punched in face -> sheriff called by meat guy -> meat guy charged with misdemeanor trespass.

Fact 1, election is over, making political yard signs trash as attested by 99% of the population.
Fact 2, victim was picking up said trash

Good luck with your assertions regarding trash.

You should go visit the rural counties in North Carolina. They still have Trump signs up all over the place. If you attempt to steal one; the homeowner would probably shoot you. The sheriff in these counties wouldn't even arrest the shooter. That's just the way it is.

LOL
I can just picture the look on meat guys face when that tractor-seat sized fist hit him. Did he try to have you charged?

Yeah, he did. Three Washoe sheriffs showed up because he told them that I pulled a knife. My wife offered the video and the dude tried to leave by stating he had an airport pickup and was late. Didn't want to press charges but will have to see an orthopedic surgeon. Sheriffs cuffed him moments later.

Truthfully I only smacked the guy bc he told my wife, "I'll see you later tonight."

1) That's patently bullshit. 2) North Carolina is not Washington State. c) You're intimately familiar with fallacies. 4) Stop posting.

Never said North Carolina was the same as Washington state.... different states, different laws.

The point is "A sign presence in someone's yard is NOT trash. If you go take the sign without permission then you are guilty of theft". This point of law is the same in every state.

The OP of this thread is pushing nonsense.

You're stating that a non violent misdemeanor, resulting in a shooting death, would lack culpability for the shooter due to the Castle Doctrine. That's absurd.

It appears there was a confrontation in the driveway and a struggle. Go read the press.

BS
After the meat guy had his way with your wife, while you watched, he slapped you in the face with his dick. Cuck me!

Yeah, the homeowner attacked the trespasser.
