Explain to a Gerry, how on earth these guys gonna get out of this without jail time.

They won’t.
Why? you're gonna yell GUNS GUNS GUNS anyways.
Castle doctrine doesn't apply where they were standing. A baseball bat being thrown and vocal threats don't constitute enough evidence that a shooting was justified even with SYG laws.
They'll do time for sure.
The old man probably will but harder to say for the youngn
the father shot on the ground, didn't hit the orange dude, did it?
he clearly said, "back off"
i doubt it
Texas is so based. Why can't the entire US, be old Tex?
I would literally bet on both of them getting off the hook completely.
It's a false flag. They're actors.
They should go to prison for manslaughter and the guy who they shot deserved to be shot. The video was fucking stupid.
>be american
>take out the trash
>get shot
>jail
They already WENT to jail... when they were arrested... because that's where you go when you get arrested... you go to jail...
I'll explain the difference between jail and prison.
If you are arrested, you go to jail. Within a day or so, you appear before a judge, and the judge decides if there was a good reason to arrest you. If the judge thinks there wasn't a good reason to arrest you, then you are let go. If the judge thinks there was probably cause (or whatever the legal term is) then the judge will set the amount of your bail. Let's say the bail is set to $5,000. That means that you have to pay 10% of that ($500) to get bailed out, and if you flee to avoid court, then you have to pay the entire $5,000. If the judge decides you are too much of a risk, then you will be held without bail.
If you are found guilty, then the judge sentences you. If you committed a misdemeanor, you will usually spend like 1 year in jail. If you committed a felony, then you will usually spend over a year locked up. If you are sentenced to a year or more, you are sent to PRISON, not jail.
Anyway, to answer your question
The camera turns away during the initial shooting, so we can't see what exactly happened. If Aaron (the orange shirt guy) really did swing a baseball bat at the old man, then the shooting was self defense. Let me explain by talking about another court case.
In another court case (I forget what state), a man shot his son because his son punched him in the chest twice. You see, the father had just had heart surgery about 4 weeks prior. Think about it, if you just had heart surgery, and someone punches you in the chest, you would probably be in fear for your life.
So if you are an old man, and someone swings a baseball bat at your head, it is conceivable that you would be in fear of your life. If you are sitting in your car, and a man takes a hammer and starts bashing your car and your car windows, it is conceivable that you would be in fear for your life. If you are a 5'2" (1.57 meters) tall Asian and a 6'7" (2.01 meters) tall 260 pound (117.9 kg) man is physically assaulting you, you can conceivably be in fear for your life, and defend yourself accordingly.
You can clearly hear Aaron say, "Give me the baseball bat," and the wife turns the camera away, I'm guessing to hide the bat from the camera. Then Aaron either swings the bat or throws the bat at the old man. Aaron could easily kill the old man with a baseball bat, and he obviously threatened to do so.

It's going to be up to the jury to decide whether or not the Millers acted in self defense. It all depends on the circumstances that we don't know, that they lawyers on both sides will talk about. For example, did the Millers walk up to Aaron wielding guns, looking for a fight? It looks to me like Aaron was being the aggressive one. This youtube comment sums it up nicely:
>Aaron was the type of guy whose size meant he never had to learn to control his emotions. He could be as aggressive and violent as he wanted and people would back down because he was 6'7" and 260 pounds. Kara is the type of woman who looks for the unstable tough guy because he's exciting and unpredictable, and she gets to feel powerful when he's pushing people around which is why she instigates and films this altercation.
I don't know if Aaron really was 6"7" 260 pounds, but you get the point.
I don't know the difference between 1st degree and 2nd degree murder, or the difference between murder and manslaughter, but I know there is a difference. As a Texan, I don't think they should be charged with MURDER, but I'm not an expert in law.
dont mess with Texas
here is a link to the video if no one has seen it yet
he was 6'6", 230lbs
work of art
I'm not a legal scholar but if there's one state they have a chance of being acquited, it's Texas.
Since when are French people experts on American federal and state laws?
Gonna have to find 12 texans to agree with you
They won the stand your ground pissing contest. End if fuckin texas story, boi
You are allowed to defend yourself in most of the US
self defense.
White nigger assaulted them with a deadly weapon.
Any ware but Austin
>In another court case (I forget what state)
>Can't remember the place but can remember every other detail
Yeah but that doesn't mean you get to use a gun...
A guy with a weapon said he would kill them both multiple times.
Guy with weapon bradishes weapon and appears to try to initiate violence, gets shot. Dies.
It clearly isn't murder and since the charge is murder, they'll get off
They were defending themselves, a Texas jury will acquit them. The Texas part is important, if this happened in faggot California they would hang.
>wife: you're not gonna shoot my husband
Bang, Bang.....BOOM
Why not? If the aggressor is using threatening to use deadly force, and you have a legal gun, why not use it to protect yourself?
>gonna get out of this without jail time.
They are pretty much screwed as self defense and stand your ground laws still have requirements of reasonable force. The father shoots first when the guy with the bat is still too far back to be seen as a reasonable threat to the point of using deadly force (debatable).
Then as you can see in the video the orange guy turns his back towards the shooters and is moving away, the bat gets flipped at the father and then more shot at a now unarmed and fleeing person who dies facing away from the shooters.
The son was the worst offender as he unloads with the shot gun after the other guy no longer even has a weapon. I mean best case, maybe it's self defense for the first two shots of the father, but after that it was already over as far as self defense goes. So a lot of this will come down to the medical report as what shots killed orange guy
as for how they can get out jail time?
Two main ways, the first is a jury or at least one jury member sees it as self defense all the way. The other is it's very possible that the shots of say the father did only superficial damage so many he technically did not murder the main. Yet clearly one of them did shoot him with a kill shot.
FUCK. YOU.
These fatties could be fucking dead if it weren't for their guns.
cool as bruv.
At least use a meme flag befor you go embarrassing Australia further.
It's called a "proxy"
Yea but even in the US the law knows something like a principle of proportionality... or no?
Throwing a bat or shooting someone with a shotie, you know. Sometimes you burgers are weird
Nah its not we can easily tell when there are some nose perpetrators.
>no?
This is such a eurotrash manner of speaking.
If they get a murder 1 everyone will flip their shit and know this was a psyop to destroy gun rights. If so the case will most certainly gain an appeal and move to the supreme court, where Millers' gain another chance. I think they will get lesser offenses.
Aint no guns in prison hahaha
>as for how they can get out jail time?
>Two main ways, the first is a jury or at least one jury member sees it as self defense all the way
The risk of this is really why juries need to be abolished altogether. It's putting way to much responsibility in the hands on untrained consumers.
stfu pussy
they look inbred
If you want to keep your guns, shooting to kill in "self defense" should require you to prove your innocence.
Really you shouldn't be shooting to kill until your own life is genuinely in danger. Being too stupid to know how to handle a situation peacefully is no excuse.
kys chang
lol'd
Ausbro is right, castle doctrine does not apply here at all. You don't have to be in your home or car (castle) in order to stand your ground. This video sums up Texas state law nicely I mention that I can't remember the state because laws vary from state to state.
what do you think "defend yourself" means????
>something like a principle of proportionality... or no?
Yeah the legal term that gets used is reasonable force, reasonable actions and so on. The problem is for your average person they sort of blur the legal requirements and protections given to police with that of private citizen and if it's your own property or now and so on.
USA also has different laws state to state.
Like texas is one of the few that allows deadly force to protect property if I remember correctly. They have very strong castle laws in texas.
>Euro cuck grandstanding
Cops waste people in response to much less provocation
Guns are for the range. Kys stupid fudd.
Wasnt that shirt guy literally on their property? Also the orange shirt guy threatened them with "I will kill you" "You're both dead". Not only that but he acted first as he went and swung at them.
>Legally they should get a medal of Honor
>By law they won't get arrested.
"(Police say it was a box spring matress.)" Keyword. Notice how this matress is more important than all these forgien flags shilling for that goldfish with a bad criminal record.
Meth head with a huge arrest record threatens to kill to guys after illegally dumping shit on their property
He is within killing distance holding a baseball bat
If he took a step forward in less than a second he could have bashed their brains in
Why didn't Orange guy grab the mattress to protect himself from the bullets?
No he wasn't and supposedly he swung after warning shots. Still don't care for him.
>shirt guy literally on their property?
It's a dirt alley (covered in trash) behind the homes I think, so no one is standing in someone else's back yard. This whole case is just stupid as hell being it's 5 people bitching about a box spring on a dirt road that has trash all over the place.
Just cut up the box spring with a hand saw and throw it out or use the pickup truck (that is in the video) to haul it to a dump.
>try to save $20 dump fee
>get killed
and/or
>live next to trashy neighbor
>his box spring in trash can
>tell worthless incel son to go cut it up and throw it out
>but dad
>shut the fuck up and just do it
>don't do any of that
>spend years in jail
ol pappa miller provoked orange tard by saying things like " take yer swing" " get within 3 feet of me and im a kill you." fucking kek thank you for this. this proves the millers were as retarded as orange tard.
>>try to save $20 dump fee
>>get killed
$20 is $20 though
>Man with a bat who literally not only threatened but stated he WILL kill them steps forward within 3 feet while holding said bat moments after being told they will shoot him
>gets shot
Theyre innocent
Rule 4 where stand your ground is invalidated:
Not allowed to provoke an attack by goading them and tricking them. That's literally what these two fuckwits did with the hand gestures and repetiton of, 'then do something about it' over and over.
They're getting the chair lol
fuck you frog, my dad was killed by a thrown baseball bat.
Basedboys spotted. Reddit calls
meant for but not for
Calling bullshit on that m8.
They still have the "chair?"
>proves the millers were as retarded as orange tard
neighbors do stupid shit when they argue with each other as it's REAL personal and has years of baggage built up. I've lived in the same home for more or less my entire life, taking over after my widowed mother pasted away.
It's a $$$$$$ area so everyone is civil etc but there is real baggage and old scores, everywhere.
If your life is threatened, then your life is threatened. Period. Again, the video in the first post sums it up nicely. If you are being attacked by a prime Mike Tyson using only his fists, he can still kill you. Just because he is only using his fists doesn't mean you can't defend your life with your gun - that's what guns are for.
>The son was the worst offender as he unloads with the shot gun after the other guy no longer even has a weapon
To me, it looks like the son blasts Aaron with a shotgun after Aaron tried to hit the old man in the head with a baseball bat.
>Really you shouldn't be shooting to kill until your own life is genuinely in danger
You shouldn't be shooting PERIOD unless your life is in danger. You do NOT fire warning shots for numerous reasons - for example, what if you fire a warning shot, then the attacker runs away and calls the cops? Now you are in a world of shit. Secondly, the bullets from the warning shot can still kill people, so you ONLY shoot if your life is in danger.
I learned in my concealed carry class that you do NOT brandish a fire arm - meaning, you keep your gun holstered unless you intend to use it.
>inb4 the millers clearly intended to use it lolol
If you just pull out a gun in the middle of an argument, you can be charged with a serious crime, and possibly lose your right to own a gun at all.
I think the Millers were irresponsible. Again, in my concealed carry class, they taught us that you do NOT draw a gun unless you intend to use it, because brandishing a firearm and threatening people when your life isn't in danger is a crime.
Did they commit murder? No. Did they break the law by brandishing firearms during an argument? We don't know the full details, but it certainly looks like it.
Good stuff user. They brandished....and I believe pappa miller did provoke orange a little by saying things like " take yer swing" and " If you get within 3 feet of me im a kill you." I believe saying things like that make shit worse...try " Calm down sir...there is no need for violence...Im armed and can protect myself if need be." while of course keeping your gun holstered..not out in the open.
it was a stupid escalation. Sometimes people get into such situations that are actually harmless. Like somebody gets into the parking lot were about to drive into. A fight over who's in turn in the line etc.
And sometimes some evolutionary programs start running and it can escalate until somebody is dead.
You can clearly see how angry those two men used to be. Very high muscle tonus and confronting stance and they brought guns. Somebody should have "complied".
The other guy should have said "Fuck it. I will bring the matrcess somewhere else ffs", the two guys could have just let this madman yell and scream and chase him off and then put the matress somewhere else. Or throw it back on the neighbors ground when he's gone. But non of them wanted to submit.
Basically it was a retarded male thing.
God damn thats actually like in the stupid tv shows
>I learned in my concealed carry class
Oh you're one of these fags, worried that your life is in danger on the daily.
>To me, it looks like the son blasts Aaron with a shotgun after Aaron tried to hit the old man in the head with a baseball bat.
I agree but still stupid.
It was similar to that "Simon says" Cop who shot the guy in the motel. The man threw the bat and the old guy turned away and wasn't injured. It was not as if he jumped at him and started clubbing him mercylessly. And the other guy had lost his weapon by then. Everything about that was very unnecessary.
Who knows more then you about concealed carry then you do leaf. you dont even have the right to carry a gun. fuck off and stop trying to cherry pick peoples argument to suit your opinion.
better version
twitter.com
Silly question, but do Texans believe you are allowed to shoot anyone for any reason in any place at any time?
1/10 for getting me to reply.
i'd rather be judged by a jury of my peers than by some bureaucrats. and yea, guns are only meant for the gun range, you aren't ever supposed to use them for anything other than target practice. :/
>Like texas is one of the few that allows deadly force to protect property if I remember correctly
I actually don't have a clear answer for this either. In my concealed carry class (I live in Texas), they told us:
-ONLY draw your gun if you feel your life is in danger
-ONLY draw your gun if you intend to shoot
I asked the instructor if I have the right to shoot someone trying to steal my car, and the answer the instructor gave was intentionally ambiguous, as if to cover her ass. Her answer was basically, you will end up in court and spending thousands on a lawyer, but that doesn't actually tell me if I can defend my property or not.
Wrong. Watch the video in the first post again. Texas law clearly states that shit talking in the middle of an argument does NOT constitute provoking.
based
redneck jury -> free
npc jury -> death sentence
pretty sure still saying "im going to kill you." or " take yer swing" is provoking someone to attack you dumbass. yet another cherry picker who idolizes a couple of fat hill billys.
what did they mean by this?
>do Texans believe you are allowed to shoot anyone for any reason
they are one of the few states that allows deadly force to protect property and I think they can even shoot a person who is fleeing. Like steal your tv and running out your yard, most place don't allow that at all.
Yet most people live out there days in gun friendly states without every getting shot or even seeing a gun used incorrectly. It's cities like Chicago that are stacking up bodies every week.
he was defending himself, something forbidden in Europe.
In France, if somebody break into your house, and you beat him up, he can sue you.
Would be funnier without the gay flare
Shooting people over property theft is retarded. The stupid should be punished, not rewarded. Your system seems to favour impulsive, cowardly morons.
Sup Melbin
>dumping trash on other peoples property
>wonder why they mad at you
>act like subhuman
>antagonize armed rednecks
>get shot
lol
that orange shirt nigger got what he deserved.
The first gunshot is heard at 2:10 and you can clearly see the bat thrown at the old man at 2:13. Did orange shirt swing at them before the shot at 2:10?
Oh wow , RIP super dave
stick to your own faggot laws
GARBAGE DAY
no watch the video in the first post. texas state law says shit talking during an argument does not constitute provocation
yes this is my everyday concealed carry gun pictured here i live in the USA, where we have niggers. my brother got beat up by a pack of wild niggers at the movies. his car's been broken into. my friend's house has been broken into by niggers. a nigger pulled a knife on me. etc. think about how long it takes for the police to arrive. in your mind, crime and evil might not exist, but where i live, it's a reality
we don't know all the details. it is obvious that a man that weighs 250 pounds can kill you by hitting you in the head with a baseball bat. if Aaron really was trying to club the old man in the head with a bat, then fuck yea you defend your father by shooting the attacker
WATCH THE VIDEO IN THE FIRST POST
Orange ape threatened to steal dad's gun and kill him with it. When he attacked dad off camera, it completely warranted deadly force.
>dumping trash on other peoples property
That's not what happened. Rest of your statement is true.
you're the faggot who is cherrypicking. the old man said
>if you come within 3 feet i'll kill you
not
>i'll kill you
you cherrypicking piece of shit
look at the context. Aaron was like 6'6" 250 pounds, threatening to kill the old man. the old man was saying, if you try to attack me, i will shoot you. Aaron was threatening to kill them both, and then he attacked them. that is reason to believe your life is in danger
> take yer swing
AGAIN FFS LOOK AT THE VIDEO IN THE FIRST POST. TALKING SHIT DURING A HEATED ARGUMENT IS NOT PROVOCATION ACCORDING TO TEXAS STATE LAW.
obvious troll is obvious
"pretty sure" fucking smug faggot, acting like he knows shit when a video explaining the texas state law is RIGHT IN THE FIRST FUCKING POST and it contradicts everything you just said
