And then convict him because he killed a nigger and killing niggers makes the world sad.
I've read your posts regarding a self-defense plea for the initial aggressor.
However, I wouldn't care what color either person was.
IF I thought the initial aggressor was the one who later claimed 'self-defense' because they feared for their life, it'd have to very compelling evidence for me to acquit.
In THIS case, T had no marks on him, Z's hands showed no evidence of hitting anyone, so I personally feel that T is the one who started things.
I hope you're not trying to paint me into the camp of T supporters. I've never been there, however, I also would have no problem convicting GZ if I knew he had started the confrontation (and then claimed 'feared for his life').
