Trayvon 2? Stand Your Ground again

Apparently another Stand Your Ground case involving a black teen getting executed by a trigger happy older male is unfolding in Florida.

White dude opened up on a couple black teens in a parking lot over loud music.
If the dude just waited in his car and shut the fuck up, he wouldn't be in jail and a kid would still be alive.

^{Police allege that while the girlfriend was in the store, Dunn told Jordan Russell Davis, 17, and his three friends to turn down their music.

After an exchange of words, Dunn began shooting with a handgun.}

^{His attorney, Robin Lemonidis, said:

It will be very clear that Mr. Dunn acted very responsibly and as any responsible firearms owner would have acted under these circumstances.}

Yes. Shooting nine times into an SUV full of teenagers is always responsible.

^{Mr. Dunn is going to have to answer the question, 'Why did you not call the sheriff's office? If you are reasonably protecting yourself, why did you leave the scene, get in the car, and the next day, flee the jurisdiction of Duval County?' … There's no indication that Jordan or anyone else in that car had a gun, there's no indication that they were any threat to Mr. Dunn.}

Maybe the shooter should use the Bob Costas defense. You know, the one where the gun made him do it, all because guns are evil.

Yes. I think that would be a good start.

The teenagers left the scene first. They returned to the scene of the shooting some twenty minute later. They drove around for twenty minutes with a dead or dying kid in the back seat, and instead of going to the hospital, returned to the scene of the shooting to report the shooting.

That's not exactly normal behavior, either. Either way, gas station surveillance footage should resolve the issue.

They're teens who just got shot up. Blame them for not being smart enough.
They still didn't initiate the conflict. They didn't approach a white man while armed.
