Neighborhood watch shooting in FL
Why isn't this story blowing up?
White 26 year old, who is the self-appointed "captain" of the neighborhood watch in a gated community in Florida, shoots and kills a visiting black 17 year old as he's walking back from the party store.
Police are not holding the shooter who appears to have at least some minor connections to the local force.

I saw that in the news this morning. I wondered about this "asshole on patrol" and then armed with a gun to boot.

It's not even blowing up down here. I happened to hear about it on the tv last night and that was it.

Re: Neighborhood watch shooting in FL
Irrespective of race, that's about all kinds of fucked up.
What could have possibly happened to make a civilian tail a kid going to the store and then shoot him in self defense? I suppose something could have happened but you'd be hard pressed to make me believe it.

It's hard to say since the article presents no evidence whatsoever beyond "the family is mad" and "the shooter had grass stains and a bloody nose" in it.

Does it really apply to following someone around in a car? I mean it certainly sounds like he was the instigator, tailing this kid.Jag wrote:Horrible story and unfortunately the equally horrific 'stand your ground law' will claim yet another victim.

Legally documented violent behaviors should preclude you from being able to walk around with a gun, no questions asked, but then, as you say, it's in the constitution and I know I'm pretty stupid.A records search revealed an arrest record for Zimmerman, including an arrest in 2005 for resisting arrest with violence and battery on a law enforcement officer.

Meh, maybe it's my Canadian roots, I don't get why it's so important to have the right to own a gun...

Capitalism tries for a delicate balance: It attempts to work things out so that everyone gets just enough stuff to keep them from getting violent and trying to take other people’s stuff.

Horrible story and unfortunately the equally horrific 'stand your ground law' will claim yet another victim.
It's hard to see (based on the admittedly thin facts in the article) how the guy could have a strong self-defense argument. He was following the person, he wasn't at home or on his property, he was armed and the other person (from what I can tell) was not...
There could well be more to the story, though.

It is essentially an extension of the Castle Doctrine, which many states have adopted, except in Florida it applies anywhere outside the home environment:El Guapo wrote:What's the "stand your ground law"?Jag wrote:It's not even blowing up down here. I happened to hear about it on the tv last night and that was it.

It passed a few years ago and my fear was that it would be used to justify unnecessary deaths. People could still claim self-defense before this, but now they have a statute to rely upon and it gives prosecutors an out to not press charges. Not surprisingly, this defense has been used in a number of road rage incidents as well.A person who is not engaged in an unlawful activity and who is attacked in any other place where he or she has a right to be has no duty to retreat and has the right to stand his or her ground and meet force with force, including deadly force if he or she reasonably believes it is necessary to do so to prevent death or great bodily harm to himself or herself or another or to prevent the commission of a forcible felony.
As far as this story, the facts are pretty sketchy right now, but even if the 'guard' was attacked, does it justify killing the kid? I wouldn't be surprised if he bloodied his own nose to justify the shooting.

Re: Neighborhood watch shooting in FL
Does that count when you initiate the confrontation that results in meeting force with force though? I'm having a hard time imagining a situation, especially one where it isn't spelled out in the police report, where you tail someone going to/fro the store and you have a gun, where you are defending. If the law suggests that you can goad someone into attacking you and then gun them down like a rabid dog, then the law is puppies.Jag wrote:It is essentially an extension of the Castle Doctrine, which many states have adopted, except in Florida it applies anywhere outside the home environment:El Guapo wrote:What's the "stand your ground law"?Jag wrote:It's not even blowing up down here.

If there were no witnesses, then that's my first thought as well. But that aside, I'm not sure it matters. If I'm alone and a strange points a gun at me with no witnesses around and starts making demands, I'm not sure how I respond either... See your stand your ground law. Fight or flight kicks in.

Re: Neighborhood watch shooting in FL
Just going by the statutory language that Jag quoted, it might. Basically the statute says that you must: (1) not be engaged in an unlawful activity; (2) be attacked; (3) have a lawful right to be there; and (to use deadly force) (4) reasonably believe that deadly force is necessary to prevent death or great bodily harm.LordMortis wrote:Does that count when you initiate the confrontation that results in meeting force with force though?

If you physicially attack the person, you probably could not use the statute (you're probably engaged in an illegal activity (assault), plus you attacked rather than 'be attacked'). However, if you followed someone in public and confronted them verbally, followed by them attacking you, you probably could use the statute to justify a forceful response. (Unless the following was somehow deemed harrassment or something).

No listening at work, and quite frankly I don't think I'd want to. I still don't blame him. He called 911. He waited for police. They didn't arrive. He warned the perps he was going to shoot. They fled. He made a lot of effort to not take the law into his own hands.hepcat wrote:I posted a link to this somewhere a while back, but it bears repeating.

I'd feel pretty damned threatened and territorial too if it happened in my neighborhood, to my neighbor and I'd also give my neighbors my blessing to shoot anyone breaking into my house after calling the police and providing warning.
I suppose my support for this action is that robberies around here tend to be armed and it is not uncommon for robbers to execute their victims because dead men tell no tales, so it's not like forbidding victims from attacking their attackers is often saving their lives.

Your entire argument for Horn falls apart at this point.LordMortis wrote: He warned the perps he was going to shoot. They fled. He made a lot of effort to not take the law into his own hands.
And he made little to no effort whatsoever to avoid what happened. I know you didn't listen to the 911 call, but did you even read the transcript?
Officers arrived about 80 seconds after the shooting, by the way. They weren't taking forever, as you seem to believe.
He was in no danger before leaving his house, the police were on the way and he knew no one was home at his neighbors. This guy wanted to shoot someone, in my opinion. The Castle Law in Texas gave him that chance.

Re: Neighborhood watch shooting in FL
I did. The dispatcher even made it clear that property wasn't worth killing over. But they were burglarizing and they were not going to be detained until police arrived, so he shot them with intent to kill. It doesn't bother me even a little that he shot them. It unsettles me a bit that he was excited (perhaps agitated may or may not be a better word) to shot them to kill. It's not something I would do but I don't blame him for it. 1) He's watching them get away with stealing his neighbors stuff. 2) He's watching them get away with a terrifying crime. 3) He's protecting the continued safety of his surroundings.hepcat wrote:Your entire argument for Horn falls apart at this point.LordMortis wrote: He warned the perps he was going to shoot.

He had no way of knowing when the officers would arrive before they get there. We waited until the fled and then warned them he was goes to shoot them.

Re: Neighborhood watch shooting in FL
I guess I can't wrap my mind around shooting two people in the back. If I see my neighbor being robbed and I know they're not home, I'm not going to grab a shotgun with the intent to kill them. Horn point blank tells the dispatcher that's his intent.LordMortis wrote:He waited until they fled and then warned them he was going to shoot them.*
As for the argument that Horn had no other option because the police weren't there, that's bull. He always had the option to tell the police what happened when they arrived and give them a description of the perpetrators.The operator said, “You’re going to get yourself shot.” But Mr. Horn replied, “You want to make a bet? I’m going to kill them.”

I can.hepcat wrote:I guess I can't wrap my mind around shooting two people in the back.
Me either, but I'm not sure how much blame a lay at the person who does, even the person who would shoot someone else in the back with intent to kill them after burglarizing their neighbor.If I see my neighbor being robbed and I know they're not home, I'm not going to grab a shotgun with the intent to kill them.
When I was younger I've had knife and gun pulled on me for almost no reason and I felt helpless. As I got older several things happened. More and more people have been killed over stupid shit criminals do. More and more criminals feel empowered by the legal system to pursue vocations in being a criminal. Two home owners have been shot and killed by two different robbers within a mile of my house in the last year because they had the misfortune of being home when their house being broken in to. Another body was found with in a mile of my house. If you're fleeing the scene, you are free of facing charges and will rob again, which is to say nothing of the fact that you still have the stuff you stole.
While I couldn't shoot someone, much less shoot them in the back, I'm not so much as phased by someone feeling safer by gunning down criminal who threatens the safety of their neighborhood and who refuses to yield until law enforcement arrives.

Re: Neighborhood watch shooting in FL
So you effectively endorse the death penalty for everything but misdemeanors?
p.s. we've all been a victim at some point in our lives. You're hardly alone in that matter. It doesn't justify going out of your way to kill when you have safer options.
They were running away from a guy with a friggin' shotgun pointed at them. You'll forgive me if I can understand their reasoning in running like hell at that point.and who refuses to yield until law enforcement arrives.
