Summary
Gerald Radford, accused of killing John “Walt” Lay in a hate crime, claims self-defense under Florida’s stand-your-ground law.
Prosecutors dispute Radford’s story, citing witness testimony of months of harassment, homophobic slurs, and a threatening video Lay shared.
The judge will rule on the stand-your-ground motion next week.
Real talk, read and understand the laws in whatever state you’re in. There are varying expectations on retreat, and life threatening danger.
If I see nazis walking around in my city and they hasn’t been beaten yet. I know I’m already fucked. Like I live in a deep blue city with like 90% democrats, if my fellow resident of my city don’t be punching nazis, my city is so fucked.
But I honestly doubt we’d let things go that far.
I’ve lived here for like 10 years and never seen a nazi. Like maybe racists or karens, but never someone doing actual nazi stuff.
Don’t think my city people would ever tolerate nazis, and I hope that remains that way forever.
There’s a lot I don’t like about Philly, but this is one thing I love.
Philly threw snowballs at Santa Claus. You bet your ass they’ll fuck up a Nazi.
