Prosecution is making their closing argument now. Nothing but BS of course.

Never let anyone else define you.

Let them think what they want, let them define you in their narrow little minds while they suppress every last piece of them just to keep a friend that never liked them for themselves in the first place.
So in super narrow specific context based on survival odds.
They do not pick a fight with an armed person. No one does this except idiots.

It actually unlawful to shoot someone who is fleeing, because he is no longer a threat. That is why home invaders have sued home owners for injuries, and won.

Yeah, if your home is invaded and you pull out a gun and they flee, you'll get sentenced if you chase them down the street and shoot them, or even strike them with a club. They've left your home. Threat over; phone the police.

If a pedestrian gives a driver the finger, is the driver justified in running him over? Because that is exactly what you are arguing.
The operator, whether it is of a car or a gun, bears the sole responsibility to ensure he does not harm other people with it. It does not matter one iota if he is provoked.
In fact, if he cannot operate safely under pressure, then he is not qualified to be licensed in the first place. And in this particular case, it was illegal for him to even possess that firearm in the first place.
Hell, he was not even legally permitted to be there. But for his preceding illegal actions, none of this would have happened, regardless of whether you think he was justified.
