it's just as bad. This guy was not threatened in any way, he was escorted out, all he had to do was get in his car and leave and we wouldn't even been talking about this, instead, he went to his car, retrieved a gun, went back into the establishment and murdered 3 people in cold blood.
Clearly no SYG defense here, just 1st degree murder which I don't think the DA will have any problem proving, and I hope to hell there is no plea bargain.

I don't think Zman's claim of SYG is going to work, at least, I hope not.
