Reeves is going to jail for the rest of his life. No way is this a good shoot. None what so ever. Even if he was elderly. I watched the video, there was absolutely no real threat to Reeves otherwise you would have seen Coulson in his face or at the very least in the video... Popcorn does not constitute a real threat.

Hope Reeves believes in what he did because he'll pay for it.


I still say young buck made the worst call out of anyone.

Sure, reeves is in jail, but young buck left a wife and child for antagonizing an old man and stealing his popcorn.


I bet the widow wishes her bully husband hadn't started the altercation.

No, that is someone wandering around with a deadly weapon intending to kill someone. How do I know they aren't a crazy person looking for blood? I say put a bullet into anyone open carrying, they are thugs looking for a fight.


Good shoot man!!!:):) Like Spidey/Spatial said, you can always claim they aimed the gun at you later to make it perfectly legal.

Why didn't the shooter just switch seats? Theater looked pretty open, no? Sorry if this was already discussed.

Or for that matter why after the first attempt to grab the popcorn did he sit back down in his chair for 4 or 5 seconds. If he was in fear he wouldn't want to be sitting down and unable to defend himself from the hulking threat.

Nope the guy trys to snatch it he sits up for a split second and then calmly sits back in his chair and pulls out his gun. Not a guy in fear but a guy that's pissed.

Typical bully/thug supporter mindset...

It's so bizarre to me that you guys expect a victim to run and hide in the basement with 911 on speed dial, and you want to blame the victim for the attack if they didn't run away.

Simple case of 2nd degree murder here, the victim died BTW, the perpetrator is in jail and was denied bail, he will likely die there for his crimes.

transform the popcorn into a brick or lead pipe you may have a shot at self defense the only thing that gives this guy any hope is Florida doesn't seem to have a lot of reasonable people on the jury as evidenced in the Dunn case.

why you and your ilk think its OK for every argument to lead to a shooting death is absurd. You want to be able to confront folks for your perceived social injustices but if they happen to take offense and throw popcorn at you they are A OK to kill.

Repeat this

You are trying to converse with a troll that enjoys attention.

Remember:

46 Michael Dunn was an old man just defending himself.
44 year old murder victim is a young buck.

Why indulge the whore of attention any longer.

Yet another talk the talk but not walk the walk troll.

"Young buck" is just his new "in deep cover". Him and spidey are the most complete definitions of sociopath I've ever interacted with. Luckily, not in person.

You are lucky. You haven't run across nor attacked us yet.

Yet. Think before you act young buck. You may get dead.

I believe you 100%. Thankfully the chances of any of us wandering into your mother's basement are almost 0%.

Where's the god damn parental supervision? A group of kids should not be left alone with such deadly treats. One of the girls is giving another kid the evil eye.

The popcorn is no different than the skittles and watermelon juice. But keep on ignoring the facts and deciding with your emotions..

Florida oh Florida. I would assume that a jury would do the right thing. But I'm not sure you'd find enough reasonable people in Florida to fill that jury. All the more reason to stay out of Florida.

No need to be the bigger person when you can jut shoot someone who looks at you the wrong way. lol.

Don't corner and attack an old man in florida and you won't have a thing to worry about.

The man said that if he was 20 years younger he would have fought the man instead of shooting him. The guy should be in prison for the rest of his miserable life.

They're not sociopaths, they're just cowards. E-thugs playing tough guys from the safety of their keyboards.

Why?

It's a perfectly valid statement. You can't expect old people to be getting into fistfight knock downs with young people. It's a huge disparity of force.

Our self defense laws lay this out VERY clearly, and if he was 20 years younger I'd say he had no legal right to shoot the young buck.

I find it interesting how you thug supporters scream and cry about racism, even though I treat everyone everyone equally. Yet here we are, dealing with a young buck borderline thug, since he's ivory and you can't scream racist you instead lower yourself to this crap.

Is young buck a gay thing or what? Spidey is a bear looking for young bucks? Also when did this thread become about gay sex?
