    Why is everyone assuming that this man who shot a fleeing child in the back is a law abiding citizen who will keep his gun locked up just like the law says he should?

      I have no idea how US courts prosecute this kind of thing with their “stand your ground” laws

      I’m just saying here the court case would be incredibly clear cut.

      Good chance this type also keeps their guns unlocked and just get by because law enforcement never comes to their house. That happens here all the time.
