If the white man had any common sense he’d mind his own business and the whole thing could have been avoided on the other hand if I’m suddenly knocked to the ground at a ghetto gas station trouble is coming

Mentioned this experience in the past and I'll tell the story once more just to pass along where my tripwire is located.
Driving into town one day headed for the post office and the light was green at a 4 way intersection. Fella ahead of me slowed to about 20 in a 45 zone, stacking traffic up big time. I flashed my lights and he slowed more. He turned off the highway about 1/4 mile later and I followed. He pulled into a shopping center, I continued to the PO without further thought on the matter. However, he pulled a tire squealing u- turn and followed into the PO parking lot and began bitching up a storm.
I went inside, grabbed the mail and exited to find him parked by my truck and obstructing my path to same. He mouthed off, I told the fat man to GFY. That led to him striking me. I asked, politely, if he was really sure he wanted to be doing what he was doing and another bucket of chitt spewed from his mouth. My reason for asking him was simple. I knew for a fact that I could kill him with one well placed punch. He was oblivious, such was his anger. I finally just walked around him and got in the truck and started the engine and began to back out as I rolled the window down. He yelled something and charged, arm cocked to punch me again.
I hit the brakes and stuck my carry piece in his face. He hit the brakes as well and started to backpedal. First smart thing I'd seen him do. I drove away, called the sheriff and reported the event, which was recorded in security video. The Man asked later if I wanted to press charges and I declined. Case closed. Had Fat Man laid a hand on me a second time he would have died right there.
I am..........disturbed.

I don't know. In Texas you can kill people for stealing.

The dead man intersected himself into the discussion between the driver and the shooter. That discussion was None if his business, thevdead man should have minded his own business.

As the boyfriend approaches, the woman begins to get out of the car, that was escalating the argument and likely accounts for why the shooter was so blindsided.
Boyfriend violently shoves shooter to the ground, the way I see it shooter is confronted by two individuals standing over him. Boyfriend steps one pace back still facing and towering over shooter.
If ya wanna see what retreat looks like Watch the actions of the second male on the sidewalk behind the boyfriend.
I do understand that the boyfriend was in support-his-woman mode for the female right next to him at that moment in time and in those mere few seconds prob’ly less likely to flee right away.
Boyfriend blindsided the shooter and violently initiated the physical confrontation, shooter on the ground was facing two opponents and could not readily avoid further blows ergo he was in reasonable fear. He should walk.
Civil court howerever is a whole diff’rent story, it apportions monetary damages based on blame, and yes, we are told the shooter went out of his way to precipitate an argument with the woman.

But...showing such bias in the article makes one wonder if the facts are presented truthfully in the first place. Are they ever??

That’s the bottom line in terms of the legality or lack thereof here. I disagree re: it not being the second guys business. If my wife is involved in an altercation I’m involved too.

It's going to fall on disparity of force, which ended when the gun came into play. Then to reasonable belief, which this old guy might loose also. The video show the man taking a step back, not really in retreat, still facing and capable of striking. I keep saying this. If you watch the video closely, THE MAN TOOK HIS STEP BACK WHEN HE SAW THE GUN. THE SHOT COULD HAVE ALREADY BEEN FIRED.

Not around here. If you used lethal force and the shooting is justified then you can NOT be sued. If the state prosecutes you and you prevail by being found not guilty then the state has to reimburse you for your costs for defending yourself and you still can NOT be sued.
