The real question is whether there was an imminent threat. How many of

them)

You don't know if that's what happened.

As I have stated a number of times, the state can't prove that is not
what happened either.
Why is it so hard to believe that a dope smoking thief like Martin
would not attack someone. (there IS evidence of the theft and dope)

I would not be surprised if you have a number for that but the big
city philosophy is that you are supposed to tolerate crime, make a
report to the police and assume nobody will ever be arrested for it.

As opposed to killing a kid armed with Skittles.......

You don't need a weapon to harm someone. Over 800 people were killed
in the US in 2009 with hands or feet as the only weapon (the last year
I could find data for)

Some of us moved here because we don't want to live like that. If
Harry wants to boycott Florida, do it.
All the time he is bragging about his license to carry in Maryland.
I am still waiting to hear what the justification he used on the
application was.

If they didn't want to live like that, why move to the 'burbs of
Orlando, it's been a big city for a LONG time.

Sanford is nothing like New York, Chicago or DC
It is 16 miles and a culture away from Orlando.
Orlando is not even like any North Eastern city I have seen.
It is just a big conglomeration of theme parks and hotels.

Orlando has a large (for non-Miami Florida) downtown area, and many,
many suburbs, *and* lots of theme parks and hotels. Sanford used to be
redneck/crackerville, and it is still not much more than a dumpy little
place along I-4 at Lake Monroe. There's no reason to stop there unless
you need gas for the car or you have to pee or you are getting off or on
the autotrain, assuming the autotrain is still running.
