Tennessee man says fatal shooting was act of self-defense
KINGSPORT, Tenn. (AP) — Authorities in Tennessee say a man told them he fired his weapon in self-defense when he fatally shot someone who approached his car in a parking lot.
The Bristol Herald Courier reports Sullivan County sheriff’s officials said in a news release that a man told them on Saturday he was approached by the victim, 29-year-old Rusty Cordle. The man said he’d been driving in front of Cordle on a state highway before pulling into a business lot. He says Cordle pulled in after him and approached his vehicle in a “threatening manner” and he feared for his life. The man shot Cordle, who then entered a store and asked for help.

Midweek, Delta Whiskies and Whiskettes, and the tallies stand at three attaining ambient temperature, one inconvenienced, and one in the wind. He must be the shy sort and doesn’t wish any public attention.

What? Not one of you dickweeds proclaimed that infamous headline, FGS Trifecta!! How could you be so bad??
This is the Holy Grail of FGS!!!
Now I expect to hear some cheering going on starting NOW!!
From what I read, the Kingsport, TN should be 0/0/1. The “defendant says he approached in a threatening manner, was there corroborating evidence for this, or did he just shoot the guy for approaching his car? Maybe he was going to tell him his taillights were out? Or ask him if he was ok, because he was swerving all over the road and nearly hit him?
While he may have felt threatened, he was in his car, and could have simply pointed the gun and said move away. Stand your ground does not say shoot first, like Han Solo!
I agree with M1 Ranger, and by the way, where is the blonde Chick who should be holding that LRPR Chassis Aw1Ed
Tune in on Sunday’s FGS for the weekly Gun Gal.
