Of course he didn't know that, so its irrelevant. Unless he talked to her long enough after he opened the door to ascertain the fact that she was drunk. If that's the case, he shot an drunk, unarmed teenage girl.
Point is he said he couldn't find his phone, but he could find his shotgun. He was deathly afraid for his life, but he opened the door.
Reverse the races? Sure. Lets pretend its a 50 yr old black man who blasted a 19 yr old white girl from Grosse Point in the face. You think the general consensus would be that she was responsible for her own death?
