Harsher in Hindsight: Fairbanks shooting two people, unprovoked, and claiming self defense, is a bit eerie in light of the Michael Dunn trial. note Michael David Dunn, while in the safety of his vehicle, fired at another vehicle when the occupants refused to lower the volume of their stereo, killing one passenger, then claimed self defense (though not Stand Your Ground). However, Dunn was ruled guilty of first degree murder, three counts of attempted second degree murder and one count of firing at an occupied vehicle. He is now serving life in prison.
Moral Event Horizon: The very first comic establishes that Fairbanks murdered two people.
