It will if you do something stupid while carrying. Which is why there are rules about what you can and can not do while carrying. Carrying a gun in your lap, not in a holster, is stupid. Reaching down towards it is stupid. Smoking pot affects judgment. Put all of that together and you have a recipe for an officer misinterpreting what you are about to do.
What matters is what the officer thought was happening, not what the deceased thought was happening. I'm still waiting on evidence that the dude truly had a conceal carry permit to begin with. That will eventually come out if he did. But regardless, if you do something stupid while carrying, you can easily get shot by a cop and it will be a legit shoot.

Sounds like the other guy being black could affect judgment too? None of this has been determined yet, but why are you speculating that it does? Misinterpretation to me sounds like poor judgement skills in a job that requires them. Why don't you wait for the investigation rather than making bold judgements?

I'm glad to be of service. I am a pretty self-less kind of guy. Let me know if I can confirm anything else for you.

I wonder how all this rage will express itself during the conventions. Things could get interesting down there. Glad I'm not in Philly anymore.
