    Whats the guy supposed to do

    Back away, run away, call 911, get a mall cop to help, throw a punch…

    Literally just about anything other than try to kill another guy.

    I mean you actually admitted it yourself without meaning to: “guy whos already harrassing him”. Harassing isn’t threatening. It’s annoying, but it doesn’t make you fear for your life. The other guy didn’t have a weapon, didn’t make physical contact, didn’t threaten him, he just aggressively harassed him. Nobody should die in that situation.

      Naw the victim was assualted, the jury already decided that. But thats besides the point. None of what you suggested is a viable option when you are face to face with a deranged person. We’re not going to see eye to eye, so i wont be resppnding even if ypu reply.

        None of what you suggested is a viable option when you are face to face with a deranged person

        Of course it is. A possibly deranged person who isn’t violent, who hasn’t attacked, or even touched you. That’s no excuse to use lethal force. You’re not going to respond because you know you’ve lost the argument. When you admitted it was harassment you knew that it wasn’t suitable for killing, but you want to pretend that it is, because you like the idea of being able to kill someone who annoys you.
