but it turns out that they think the other guy wants to kill people and then they kill people by mistake bringing in other people (cause they heard the shots) and they kill the people with the guns - who were only there to kill people with the guns so they wouldn't kill people with guns in the first place?

Like Trayvon Martin. Just because you don't have a gun and I do does not mean you can't kill me!

(1,986 posts)7. But, wait...I thought you can only kill unarmed people if they are not white.
Isn't that still the rule?
treestar
(82,383 posts)9. I think you are right.
Had Trayvon Martin been white, different result. Scary Black Man Rule.
