Hate to respond to the same post twice, but since Marley singing I Shot the Sheriff isn't remotely close to the situation in this case (unless the Defendant was aiming to shoot I down in the first place, in which case imma no be self-defense, dig?), I'll give you this hypo instead:
Q. "And you thought he posed a threat to you, such that responding with deadly force made sense to you?"
A. "Absolutely."
Q. "Why?"
A. "When I bumped into him in the bar he yelled "Get the fuck off of me you fucking Jew." Then I watched a video of him on YouTube. He has swastika tattoos and he's in a band called Skrewdriver and he was singing that Nancy Sinatra song but with different words -- it ended with "One of these days these boots are gonna stomp all over Jews." So when I saw him coming at me in an alley and yelling "Hey, that's the fucking Jew who hit me in the bar," I was scared for my life.
Pros. [Atticus]: "Move to strike."
Judge Finch: "On what grounds?"
