exactly - I am conceding, however, that skater dude may have had pure motives in "stoping an active shooter" based on his perception of the facts, but that still does not in any way mitigate the shooter's rights to defend against an assault. The kid was there to defend property he was exercising a right, more so than the people who were rioting. I have watched every bit of video, and to me he was justified in each moment. Unfortunately, the political environment demands he be charged. A competent defense can easily prevail here. First, only a preponderance of the evidence is required to offer up the affirmative defense of self defense. This evidence objectively exists. Secondly, the state must then prove beyond a reasonable doubt that his affirmative defense is not valid. So, thankfully, the law and the evidence is on his side.
