"Many" think that one had the right to shoot someone defending their girlfriend in order to "defend themself". Clearly it was the victim at blame for "escalating" the situation versus humbly walking away to avoid getting shot.  Not had he walked away and got shot?  Well, I suppose he could still be blamed because they parked in the handicap spot.  Or maybe because he didn't show enough respect to the shooter and try to defuse the situation.

Always blame to go around.... 

Of course many may think that MLK wasn't blameless in getting shot either...he just had to stop running his mouth probably.  And if JFK just would have had the roof up!  Amiright?

I have never suggested the father walk away and have asserted I would have done the same or worse at that age.  I suppose if we wanted to peel the onion all the way back then the mother is to blame for parking illegally.
