Bottom line you kill someone and your life is not in danger - you should go to jail

Could not agree more. If one looks at the situation from far away it's a scenario that's played out a million times before: Two young guys with chips on their shoulders and previous histories of violence engage each other. The pretenses under which doesn't really matter, especially since the only witnes was Z and he can pretty much say whatever the hell he wants because the other witness got shot in the heart. The only factor that propels this from a schoolyard scrap is the handgun that Americans love so much. Two guys fight, one ends up shot dead with a widely available, easily concealable death machine. It happens every day in the USA.
