She is set for a new trial. I believe her sentence was harsh for a "warning shot" but I also believe it is neither self-defense nor "stand your ground" (*cough* BULLSHIT *cough*) when you go to your car to get a gun. If you are free enough to go to your car to get a gun, you are potentially free enough to drive away or run away or something.

As for "stand your ground" and self-defense, in general, I was happy Trevor Dooley's dumbass was convicted. I just want these arrests, trials, and convictions to be equally applied across race and ethnicity. Joe Horn can still kiss my ass.
