EDIT FOR SOME CORRECTIONS
This happened in New York City. NO IT DIDN'T MY MISTAKE I THOUGHT THIS WAS THE OTHER ONE IN NYC
THIS IS POST IS A LITTLE OFF DUE TO MY MISTAKE IT'S ABOUT THE TERRIBLE INCIDENT AT A NYC BODEGA that was clearly self defense and tragic. New York has a duty to retreat if possible there obviously was no way to retreat. New York does have some sort of castle doctrine but I do not know the details.
The victim tried to mitigate by telling him he did not want trouble but the man attacking him remained to committed to continuing his attack until there was no choice.
Anyone who thinks that it is an obligation for someone to wait until he/she finds out whether his/her beating is going to continue until he/she is seriously injured, incapacitated, and/or killed before taking whatever action they can to stop an attack really needs to have a reality check.
This is not founded either in law anywhere in the US that I know of or common sense and rightfully so.
I certainly would have been in fear for my life if a stranger who is more physically fit and stronger than me jumped over counter cornered me and started beating me up.
Racism is very real all over the US unfortunately people willing to exploit this situation rather than deal with difficult situations honestly such as the district attorney who filed murder charges abound. They dilute and distort true actions to deal with racism.
This man would have went through the system like everyone who doesn't have enough money to hire a good lawyer to ensure they are treated fairly if the injustice was not caught on video tape and displayed for the world to see.
