He’s cooked. Bad shoot for sure. Guy was a 100 feet away from him when he shot him or at him. I’d like to know if that’s when he was shot in the back or if he was shot in the back earlier.
Bad shoot, both legally *and* tactically.
Doesn't really matter. Even if he was out casing the neighborhood, *and* the shooter can prove it, *and* the shooter can prove that he knew it at the time, it's still not a good shoot.
He won’t be homeless until AFTER he gets out of prison. That is, of course, after he serves a term of “X“ years; and then comes down with some terminal disease that requires expensive end of life care, - THAT’S when they will let him out of prison to die on the street.
Looks "mostly peaceful" to me.
I saw no display of courage in that video.
This is true. The guy seems like a jerk to me. From what we see he was never in danger. I’d like to see the 5 minutes of video prior to this because that camera was on prior to him walking out his front door. To clarify that might justify him coming out with a gun to defend his home/person but doesn’t justify the shooting. Legally and morally to me this is a bad shoot. I never want to have to shoot someone let alone a person in their car driving away who’s afraid of me. That’s morally wrong to me and as you stated a cowardly act in most cases.
Honestly, stepping foot on someone's property without permission should be terrifying.
At least his "warning shot" was into the ground not the air.
Firing a warning shot wasn't the right thing to do.
No, warning shots are almost never the right answer.
I agree. The GPS app provided, or Apple or Google maps should be more accurate. But unfortunately, mistakes happen. And if what the news is reporting is true, he was simply lost and trying to ask for directions. Hardly a justification for deadly force
I just went to a place this morning and the GPS had the correct address but it sent me a half mile past the place. It said you have arrived, I looked around and was like nope so I hit the start button again on the GPS and it took me about a 1/2 block up and said I arrived, nope. I looked at the addresses on the buildings and I was 500-600 address numbers away so I navigated there but address numbers not GPS.
My "driveway" is actually a dead-end public road with only my house on it. Long ago... like, before Google Maps... it was not a dead end, it went up the hill and connected to another road. But Google Maps still thinks it's not a dead end. Thankfully, there's not much traffic here apart from the Amish carriages.
Much of western NY has shale bedrock thats very shallow. Even a shot into the grass can richochet upwards
Maybe. But even an inch or two of topsoil is going to drastically reduce the danger.
Fanny same with my parents country property. They have a creek that boarders their property line and a logger out in an illegal bridge over the protected trout stream so everyone uses that to get to their properties up the hill. The old road into town is still there and is technically the right of way for all the people up the hill but that road now has been washed out so many times it would take Parker Snabel’s crew before you could drive a car on it. It’s still located on Google maps as a road as well. You can’t even get a 4-wheeler or side by side down it because the springs have flooded it and I’ll bet there are 2-3’ deep ruts and pools these days. It’s a mess.My "driveway" is actually a dead-end public road with only my house on it.

Amish GPS must be similarly messed up, because they still use the field like a road
My road technically loops back down to the main highway.
