    I was going to say that “stand your ground” laws shouldn’t exist when so many people are terrified of shadows.

    But that’s it isn’t it? If they’re terrified of shadows then a gun and a power fantasy is the answer.

      This isn’t even stand your ground or castle doctrine or anything. The homeowner wasn’t even home and they were outside the front gate when shot. That’s the craziest part to me, absolutely no one was in danger until the dude showed up.
