For me, it’s a slightly better balance. The rational, clear thinking kind appear to be represented in greater numbers, proportionally, in the KoW

I must say, the most intelligent people i"ve ever met were Americans, but also most dumbest ones.

My experience has been different. Anyway it's not American expats who are being discussed here, to the best of my knowledge no US immigrants have shot anyone dead in Cambodia ever.

Wasn't the second amendment designed to protect citizens from their own government? If so, it's a good one. Downside; mass shootings, and many times more single shots. The right to bare arms; downside sunburn. Swings and roundabouts.

Back to the original case. Missouri is a stand your ground state. The Castle Doctrine will be likely used in the old man's defense.

I understand the rationale behind stand-your-ground laws, but from what I've seen (disclaimer: I haven't been following the story) the guy said he was scared because the kid was tall, or something like that when the boy did nothing threatening, the old man just opened the door and shot him in the head because he didn't like the look of him.

If the old man was found not guilty because he said he was intimidated by him, wouldn't that open the door to anyone being able to shoot someone they don't like and claiming they felt intimidated by the way they look?

"That dude looked like a scary mofo, he had a pissed off look on his face so I shot him".... translation : I saw a black/white/muslim/ethnic guy walking down the street and I hate those people, so I shot him. The law says I can, I just need to say I felt threatened.

My general understanding of the Castle Doctrine is that it specifically refers to someone entering your home without your consent. I think stand your ground may apply to street confrontations more generally.

No, you can't just snipe at people who are walking down the street. (My understanding of the laws.)
