Richard that was poetic! I totally get his line of thought too. From a rational side, look at where this incident would lead, and the hatred that would be race related. And from the self protection side, he's giving the guy a chance to opt out of doing something stupid, and avoiding consequencess of a potiential crime, and yet making the guy accountable when he persists in his act of crime, in this case shooting him in each foot! Bravo!
