Forgive the obvious.
The police did not press charges.
What ended up happening was a fist hit face, a bullet hit torso.
Was this situation a deadly force response appropriate situation?
In short I'm asking, if someone hits me in the face, am I legally allowed to shoot?
If the answer is yes, why is Mr. Zimmerman in jail to this day?
Not that I nessisarily would, but I think I may be in deep bandini if i fired after a single blow to the face.
Or was the statement that the two friends with the perp wee armed the game changing factor?
What say the experts?
No expert here.......but if someone hits me in the face while in a heated exchange of words.....he will probably get shot. Never know what's going to happen next.
