Its funny, but if its true the guy posted a video of him robbing someone at gun point.
When he stole the camera it quickly went from self defense to robbery.
Meh. I can see your point of view, but on the other hand I could easily see it as preserving evidence. He didn't take their wallets or cash, for example, only the thing that he might need were they to call the cops with his license plate number and attempt to run a story about being carjacked or whatever.Its funny, but if its true the guy posted a video of him robbing someone at gun point.

May not have taken their wallets or cash, but he took their keys.
Funny, but, i believe its a fake. Although, if its real, this is exactly why people shouldn't jack around in todays world. There are to many people out there who are too afraid of a good ole fashion tale whipping! Hence, gun play! I'm not sure what is wrong with folks these days, society is just to messed up!
I'll tell you what's wrong with them. People die in street fights. People go into comas. People get serious brain damage.
The street isn't the playground, it isn't the gym, it's not covered with wrestling mat or nice, soft grass.
You get hit in the face, fall down and smack your head on the pavement or concrete, and that's it for you. It only takes one decent punch, and you're finished for good. I've seen this happen first-hand. Ask any ER physician, neurologist or trauma surgeon how often this happens in street fights.
THAT is what's wrong.
I agree with you! My question was more along the lines of societal cause. What has happened that a good ole fashion fight doesn't exist anymore, everyone has to have guns (myself included). What has happened to society that everyone is so short tempered that they feel they need to follow someone for 10 minutes because he (allegedly) cut them off? Being cut off isn't ever just an accident anymore (just using the cut-off premise for the sake of argument, it could be anything.
In the real world it just does not work out that way legally. Take a clearer case with shots fired, guy stops and fires his only weapon in self defense:

Seriously, read.
