A Florida man is behind bars because he accidentally shot his friend while they were "standing watch" outside a home because they felt threatened by someone else, deputies say.
He saw someone he thought was a random guy standing outside his car window and his first thought was 'I should shoot this person'?
I get why they were on lookout, but you still can't shoot random people you think may be the dangerous individual you had in mind, and even the person they had in mind (as far as I can tell from the article), it doesn't sound like they were 100% on whether he was out to harm them or not.
He wanted a legal justification to shoot somebody.
He tried to put himself Ina situation where he could argue he was in danger and therfore justified in shooting.
Same thing as Rittenhouse and Zimmerman.
This guy is just extra pathetic because he literally just waited for the first vaguely human shaped silhouette he could find and then yelled "they're coming right at us"
Because his desire to murder somebodybwas greater than even the most basic of brain functions.

Yeah and they article says it's accidental. There's nothing accidental about this at all. He saw a person, decided to shoot them, then shot them.
