Parking space enforcer sentenced to 20 years.

He is 48 probably now.

Interesting in the initial story the Sheriff said it was "stand your ground". Probably he had not seen the video.

Plastered as page one all over TV last night showing the video of the shooting over and over again.

Self appointed parking lot handicapped space protector shooter charged with Manslaughter.

Saw this on ABC news big screen. The guy is shot at the point he turning to walk away. So it seemed on the big screen.

The news called it a parking dispute. Only at the very end did they mention the wife was parked in handicapped space and never said she was illegally parked.

They also emphasized the white on black killing.

I’m still thinking the DA failed to file charges in order to get the law changed.

If this type of thing happens a lot, Florida will change their laws. I’m almost suspecting the reason he wasn’t charged was to create that situation. To me with the video, let a jury decide.

Secondly it makes it unlikely other states will consider protecting righteous shooters.

And much less likely liberal states will ever change.

Did I understand the woman was in the car?

I have waited in handicapped spots tow away zones etc. when parking was limited, figuring if a handicapped driver ever approached I could quickly move. Was I unreasonable?

Crotchety old seniors may be a little safer in Florida today.

Did the police ticket the widow afterwards?

Some one said it was the new Trayvon Martin story.

Doesn’t seem to have the legs, maybe due to the age of the. “victim/aggressor”.

Man shoots and kills another man after being thrown to the ground over a handicapped parking space event. To me it would depend on if the original aggressor was attempting to harm the man on the ground a second time. The old man was not charged. Lots of sympathy now for the original aggressor, who died in front of his 5 year old child. Being a thug and parking in a handicapped space, is dangerous in Florida.

Video is hard to watch. To me the original aggressor had backed up as soon as he saw the gun, to me the gun had done its job without a need to fire it, but that is just how I saw it. The man may have been making threatening statements at the time the gun was fired.

Note to self: not your job to police handicapped parking spaces.

Edit: I originally said old man. He is 47 and that is not old at all.
