can you explain why the white lady is a hero and the black guy goes to jail?

a cop wouldn't shoot someone for waving a crowbar, why does this lady get to?

why couldn't she go out on the porch and fire a warning shot? shoot out his tires? wait 5 minutes for the cops?

she already had plenty of advantage, no reason to shoot him in the face repeatedly, once in the leg would've been the same...

In May, Head told The Associated Press that the case is a reminder of the potential pitfalls of self-defense arguments.

‘‘Just because someone hits you in the face doesn’t mean you pull a .45 and shoot him in the head,’’ he said. ‘‘It can be hard to prove it’s self-defense because the jury puts themselves in the same footing as anybody else.’’

The ‘‘stand your ground’’ law that advocates say should protect McNeil is similar to a law cited by authorities who initially declined to charge neighborhood watch volunteer George Zimmerman in the fatal shooting of Trayvon Martin, who was unarmed. Zimmerman, who is Hispanic, told police he shot Martin, who was black, in self-defense during a scuffle. The decision by police to not charge him sparked protests across the nation. Prosecutors ultimately charged him with second-degree murder; Zimmerman has pleaded not guilty.

But the evidence suggests that just because one Georgia mom was able to fend off an intruder using a .38-caliber handgun, that doesn't mean firearm ownership provides a higher level of safety in the home.
