Not a lawyer either, however the WM kid became the aggressor. Even tho he got pushed with cary and spit on. Someone held him back, customer started to walk away (de-escalate). WM then re-engaged the guy. This wouldn't go in the WM kid favor if there were firearms involved. IMONow lets not forget that customer “cart dude” also spit on WM guy as a final gesture of “f**k you“ before he walked away. I’m not a lawyer nor LE, but in my book WM guy met force with force, not assault imho. You spit on me, I’m unloading on you.
thats why i said at least wait till he's OUTSIDE the store to unload on him. if he spit on me, he'd need to get got... just not in the store.Now lets not forget that customer “cart dude” also spit on WM guy as a final gesture of “f**k you“ before he walked away.

i would have done the same....take my chances with johnny law...Clean his clock..... dirt nap...... and the "walking away" nah got what was coming .... and "premeditation" .. he had that same "premeditation" when he rammed person with the cart. he got what he deserved.
