How does it make sense then to knee cap the number of H1B workers coming to America to satisfy tech jobs we are woefully ill equipped to fill with the domestic labor pool? What steps have been taken to better equip our labor force to gain these in-demand skills? How many of these people are working more than one job since their wage is not sufficient to live off of? How come wage growth is so much lower than expected? You cannot call check mate when you have barely proven you can play checkers. What part of your statement addresses any of my last statement? None, but it sure sounded good.

The legal concept deals with disparity of force.  It doesn't matter what his age was.  He got attacked by someone younger, larger, stronger, and with 2 more possible attackers closing in.  The man on the ground can't read everyone's mind.  Was he about to get his face kicked in, or worse?  The only thing he knows at this point is that the other parties are in the wrong.  Parked illegally then assaulted him for speaking about it.

Yes, I know the "old" man is a prima donna toy cop wannabe.  He is especially stupid to be confrontational while carrying.  There are some people who should not be carrying, especially if it gives them any extra sense of bravado.  So it's pretty much a thumbs down for everyone involved.  

I think CCW classes should concentrate more on de-escalation techniques rather than teaching what constitutes a "good shoot" under the law.
