On Friday, May 3 a Florida deputy responded to a domestic violence call.  Arriving at the apartment complex the deputy was met by the woman who'd made the call, who directed him to apartment 1401, in which she believed the violence to be occurring. 

The deputy knocked on the door, standing on either side for purposes of safety.  When the door opened, the deputy was presented with a man with a gun plainly visible in his hand.

The deputy immediately drew his service pistol and shot the man, killing him.

That man would turn out to be Roger Fortson, a US Airman who was not, in fact, involved in a domestic violence event, and who by all accounts was doing nothing illegal at all when fatally shot by the deputy. 

Fueled by the usual lies of race baiter Benjamin Crump, as well as by visions of how the world might be if perfect, the internet is hysterical with outrage.

Could this tragic shooting nevertheless be lawful? Is it necessarily murder? Manslaughter? Or is it simply not a crime at all under the law of self-defense?

Join me for an EMOTION-LESS, LAW-BASED analysis of the police shooting of Roger Fortson.
