I disagree. This is a clear strong armed robbery (a forcible felony). He also specifically said he was afraid that when the robbery began the guy would draw a gun. So it's okay articulation.
It's not great situation, and his ass is likely still going to trial, but I think if you put this in front of a (non political) jury, he'd probably get completely acquitted. As we've seen from NYC, even when shit is legally suspect, the fact that there is popular support for the store-owner can be enough to get him off.
Black Lives Matter figured this out years ago. That's why they advocate for so many explicit criminals. Pressure alone can get prosecutors to back down.
His jury trial will hinge entirely on how many Asians, Hispanics, and non-leftist whites are on the jury. Every black and leftist white juror will vote guilty no matter what. That’s where we’re at in America now. That’s what “racial justice” looks like.
You don't understand how many black people are okay with ghetto trash getting shot.
