I know it matters whether George was in fear for his life but if I recall, it had to be reasonable fear.
I don't doubt for a second that Z was about to piss his self in fear. The little girl screaming heard on the 911 was call was most likely him. So, by the law in the instant he pulled the trigger he was good, for him anyway. Reasonable fear is very subjective and its entirely up to the guy with the gun what is reasonable. I would not have been in fear of my life had I been so stupid as to get there, but that's me. Unarmed I would have found another way to break the fuckers leg, kick his balls out of joint, bite off a kneecap, something. However, If I had been walking along minding my own and some asshole just jumped me I would shoot daylight in his ass. I am too old and have too many injuries to bother with a fair fight.
