I could care less about his emotional state after pulling the trigger, that shouldn't excuse his behavior afterwards.
I don't know enough to need to excuse his behavior. I sure don't know enough to judge him at this point. Certainly the girl here experienced far worse trauma. We're not comparing trauma. We're only trying to discuss whether there's a reason why he didn't call 911 right away. We just don't know. Maybe he injured himself. Maybe he fell to the ground and knocked himself out. Maybe he was crying with remorse. We don't know.

But until we know facts, assigning blame is premature. Its called prejudice.
