This is Florida giving crazy Plp guns

[@ivannovotny4552]

Probably he is closeted gay-man himself.

[@vitalucas9452]

​@ivannovotny4552 that immaculate beard seems to support your claim.

[@sneakypuppy7705]

Adults still having difficulty "adulting." There's no reason this man should have lost his life.

[@tmcurly]

_Shot out of anger and hate vs fear 🧐_

[@tmcurly]

*The way that bullet entered his body tells you everything you need to know. Guilty!* 🤦🏽‍♀️

[@thesummerof1968]

Looks like a serial killer. Reminds me of the monster from Arkansas that killed his whole family on Christmas.

[@jammiesimb311]

He sounds homophobic

[@SamMaigwa]

So is God ..

[@MiaoNya]

@SamMaigwa God isn't homophobic, Christians are. There are (Some) Christians who pervert the Christian faith to give them a sense of virtue for their hate.

[@howiewill]

Guilty AF! Prison justice should suffice.

[@christophernewhouse5832]

I doubt this is about sexuality preference this is about some1 who probably harassed the wrong person in which caused a back & fourth for months until 1 person crashed out over the conflict.

[@MiaoNya]

The court proved that Radford (The Shooter) had been harassing Lay (The victim) the years, used homophobic slurs against him, and threatened to end his life the day prior to the shooting. I don't think it's a stretch to believe that hate contributed (In some part) to the motive.

[@christophernewhouse5832]

@@MiaoNya I agree somewhat

[@wmdkitty]

Radford is guilty. You don't get to harass someone for months on end and then cry "self defense" when they rightly snap on you.

[@BERNARDO712]

Without googling: Name an example where a Black person was able to use "Stand Your Ground" as a defense.

[@omadjourney]

Nope, can't think of one...we don't have any ground to stand apparently.

[@scottt7009]

The defendant is white

[@glee21012]

Name one example where a black parent was held responsible for when their kid shot someone. Meanwhile the Crumblys rot in prison.

[@omadjourney]

@glee21012 a young girl shot a woman neighbor who was fighting with her mom... and guess who's doing numbers behind bars...go on guess.

[@omadjourney]

@@glee21012 I think my comment got deleted as usual but I was saying...a little girl shot a woman neighbor who was fighting with her mom with her mom and guess who's doing numbers??? I wholeheartedly think parents need to pay for the things their children get up to because if you love your parents then there's no way you'll risk seeing them caged and that should go for all races.

[@blacklisted4885]

Why does it matter the victims sexuality? So what. You can hate ppl for any number of reasons. Murder is murder. No privileged victims

[@me_keelytequiley753]

Did u even listen to the story???

[@blacklisted4885]

@me_keelytequiley753 yes. He was gay. Maybe he was called a slur. So what. Murder is murder

[@bx7054]

He killed the victim because of his sexuality. It has nothing to do with "privilege" dimwit

[@fuzzjunky]

lol i think they need to examine motive. we're sorry that you find justice tiresome. the old wanker had a problem with certain types of people and that is going to cost him.

[@TheeJosephSantos]

The reason the witness was asked it because there's a risk of a hate-crime enhancement. Simply denying that he spoke those words with the intent to express intolerance would limit the risk. It's up to the jury though. Doubt they bought it cause this is common language.

[@sherrydmyterko-tramp8654]

I don’t believe a person has a right to kill someone because of words. Not saying it’s good. It hurts and can mess a mind up. However this isn’t a couple living together with verbal abuse. It seems like two men at a park. One used unkind words. You can not allow ppl to kill someone cuz of words. Or maybe I have it mixed up. The one that was bullied died or the one doing the bullying?

[@aarons6935]

Carrying a firearm in public shouldn't be legal in any rational country

[@RedPhil87]

@@aarons6935 Ignorant opinion

[@Warex06]

We live in an irrational world 🌎

[@MrGringoman80]

It's rational in any country that values individual freedom. Only authoritarians think the peoples lives should have less protection than banks and casinos.

[@aarons6935]

@Warex06 real

[@Metonymy1979]

When aren't you in Florida

[@fuzzjunky]

one of trump's best right here! lol

[@sherry8894]

This has nothing to do with politics. Go somewhere else with your crap comments.

[@athensmajnoo3661]

Keep away from someone if you dont agree with their life style, why unalive???? Nothing justifies that......

[@SamMaigwa]

Nowadays it's unavoidable unfortunately 😕

[@LinkRocks]

99% of the people who use "stand your ground" are guilty and are trying to wiggle their way out of prison. This guy sounds like a POS, I'll be watching this case to see what happens.

[@jonathanjames8733]

The fact she didn't know if the hands were dirty that could b a thing

[@Tampa_Legend_813]

Well this sums up Fl..

[@Sub-Zero303]

Guilty

[@francisgoldstien6153]

Not a stand yours ground case

[@sharnie528]

Is arassment a form of bullying

[@kr3b3210]

He needs to slow his speech down !!!

[@vivaldi1948]

I really did not want to see a murdered man with a gun shot wound in his chest.

[@kathduncan9618]

Oh come on, that momentary image could not have been more sanitised and detached from gore. So sick of wimpy pearl clutchers moaning on. Go watch kitten videos and leave the true crime stuff to those with guts.

[@scottt7009]

KZbin is like a box of chocolates

[@tmcurly]

_No way he was going to survive that_ 🤦🏽‍♀️

[@SamMaigwa]

Oh well

[@johngillon6969]

defendant should shave off his beard.

[@jeanP924]

He's trying to look like a feeble old man and the beard is his disguise.
