Chester Holmes shot a client for not wearing a mask, alleging self defense, do you agree with the defense?


Nope, that is murder... there was no imminent danger to him or anyone else, even if he (or others) got covid later and died from it, that is not a crime. If it was every time someone gets the flu and dies from it, the person who gave it to them could be charged with it.
Then to top it off, after the 1st shot, he followed the guy and shot him two more times. Legally for self defense once the danger has passed you cannot continue to attack someone. Even if someone charged me with a knife, the first shot takes them down or they start to run away wounded, you cannot legally chase them to finish them off.
Heh look at that guy… He’s showing off his African IQ…
@EnglishEuropean Did I reference that study? No. So you are intentionally misleading people with your bullshit post. There are thousands of studies focusing on racial IQ differences, specifically the African/African-American IQ gap. There are various theories and efforts to close that IQ gap, but study after study show even when Blacks are placed in households of White adoptive parents, live in predominately White neighborhoods, and go to predominately White schools having their nutritional, economic, and emotional variables met, that they only marginally improve, but still lag behind their White peers. So there is obviously a larger genetic component to intelligence. That’s not to say that other races can’t bread in those specific gene combinations over time if they are favored reproductive traits, but Blacks do currently lag significantly behind other races in intelligence on average. So get the fuck out of here with your opinion piece.
He very much overreacted. And the article says he legally wasn’t supposed to have a gun in the first place.
I feel like people working as security guards or police officers should know how to physically remove people without needing to shoot. That seems very cowardly.
Lmao I’m sorry that stories so funny, I can’t believe it’s real and not some kind of elaborate comedy sketch
It's not an elaborate comedy.
Felon actually shot someone and tried to use this as an excuse.
I understand why you'd think it looks like a comedy sketch.
People have compared breathing to assault, the joke of that sort of mentality writes itself.
Add the phenomena of poes, and I can understand your mentality.

I think that defense is a tacit admission that he has no real defense.
The fact that democrats will say it's self defense when someone with a rap sheet a mile long murders a person over not wearing a mask but they call it murder when a 17 year old shoots three guys, all of which were trying to kill him says a lot about them.
If that isn't backwards thinking, I don't know what is
If that was self defense, then we are in a free for all. Every man for himself. Let's all just start shooting each other. That's what the powers behind this covid scam want.
Sounds like whomever convinced him that he was tyhat big of a threat can and should be sued by the victims relatives. CNN, Fauci, Pelosi?
Who convinced this stupid guy that he would be justified?
Punitive Damages
You are probably right but the left would use this as an opportunity to scare news organizations into toning down the rhetoric. I think we should match their strategies and give it right back to them
i wonder if this makes it okay to shoot masked people who have had the shot, because the almighty SCIENCE is showing that most of the vaccinated people are the ones getting the virus now.
www.cdc.gov/.../delta-variant.html
No, let’s just nip this in the bud right now. The almighty science shows that 90.2% of those in hospitals and ICU are unvaccinated. It spreads faster harder and more likely to mutate in unvaccinated populations.
@Archerer "in hospitals" but they're catching it from the vaccinated snobs running around acting like their shit don't stink. Or did your god, Fauci change the science again? Nip that in your bud, bud. Even you can't hide all the vaccinated celebs getting covid and posting about it. U don't think the regular people are catching the same crap after being vaccinated? GTFO, u damn mask Nazi.
@Archerer Look at deaths. Also, look how they determine if you have covid.
See that there's a difference between the vaccinated and unvaccinated.
The unvaccinated are tested regardless of symptoms, the vaccinated need symptoms to be tested.
The unvaccinated are deemed positive with just a PCR test, or just symptoms, or just monoclonic DNA testing.
The vaccinated as only deemed positive with monoclonic DNA testing and symptoms.
Not a bad defense given the assertion Democrats made “Masks save lives” Implying that those who don’t are direct dangers to ones health
I’m not saying it would just that it’s a respectable assertion given that there has been that claim made which is the unmasked and unvaxed are direct threats to you and your families safety’s
A matter of flight or flight
Not the point I’m making but ok
I can see where he’s coming from with the whole self-defence bs but I doubt that would hold up in court. Very excessive reaction and stupid
That's the kind of argument a defense lawyer makes when neither the law nor the facts support his client's case. Sounds like a murder charge is appropriate.
Does he not see that being shot three times is more life threatening than the potential threat of another human who may or may not be carrying covid?
Does he believe that his risk of catching covid is much different if the individual wears a mask?
Jesus fucking christ, self defence against breath?
the propaganda was too effective
If the dead guy was a Trump supporter then they will pin a medal on him.
No way in hell should it be self defense. Insanity maybe. I bet he's loving it in jail where many people don't wear masks
I mean it clearly isn’t true at all, it’s just the angle his lawyer is taking. But if it were true than sure, why not? Should of worn a mask. The guy was just protecting himself...
was he violent? plenty anti-maskers... well:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yWq5RHILnV8All the girls are probably like "damn he's so sexy"😂
What the fuck, that man is crazy
So a felon with a gun. That happen to be a security guard. And they are worried about the good guys with guns
If he had only shot him once, maybe a defense, although doubtful. He shot him three times, so a really stupid defense.
Actually I'm more surprised that there wasn't an increase of robberies nationally since everyone was forced to wear a mask.
Sssooooo should I pre-emptively shoot pro-mask people lol? Didn't even ask if they had the jabs.. just shot..
Fuck no. He’s a killer just looking for an excuse no matter how lame
Hope he gets convicted and the book thrown at him.
He's going down for murder.
No. He's a criminal and should be treated as such.
No that’s a bit extreme damn
Seems bogus as hell to me. Lock his ass up.
1st degree murder. No excuses for this retards!
That ain't gonna fly.
Nope, he needs to be executed,
Western democracies be like.
Liberalism intensifies
The next inherit the wind…
Good
Does this liberal democracy have implemented the death penalty for people who refuse to wear masks?
*have the death penalty.
Hopefully
So do you agree with me that liberal democracies are violent and inhumane?
They’re doing society a favour
Should liberal democracies put those people (who refuse to wear the mask) in a concentration camp?
Yeah why not tbh
In all seriousness though just wear a mask and stfu
Nahh
Okay 👍
Ok but that’s not what the question asked?
I don’t really care about his history it’s irrelevant
Ok 👍
