Timothy Warren was driving his FedEx truck through a verdant neighborhood in Portland, Ore., when the man he would soon kill screamed that Warren was going too fast.

Warren stopped his truck. He was exhausted, he tried to explain to Joseph Magnuson that day in late September, and just wanted to get done with his work.

Magnuson was unrelenting and hurled numerous aggressive insults and racist slurs at him.

That was something Warren, who is black, could not abide.

He stepped out of the truck, and both men yelled at each other.

Magnuson took a swing. Warren swung back, connecting a single blow above Magnusons left eye that sent him tumbling to the ground.

Magnuson, 55, briefly lost consciousness, then died later that evening.

Prosecutors, however, have decided not to charge Warren, 41, with a crime. He did not intend to kill Magnuson and acted in self-defense during the Sept. 26 incident, the Multnomah County District Attorneys Office said in a memo released Monday.

Its unclear whether Warren still works for FedEx; a company spokeswoman declined to answer a question about his employment status.

Already been posted and nobody is on the white guy's side because he started it physically.

Just because you start a fight doesn't mean you deserve to die. I'm pretty sure if the white guy killed the black guy, there would be riots all over the nation.

Both were in the wrong.

It was a single punch and I doubt he wanted the guy to die and I'm all but CERTAIN he didn't expect it.

The black guy could be having some serious fucking problems coping with this. Nobody wants to talk about that, though...

Nah but it's a known possibility. If you're fragile don't go around assaulting people and your chances of dying from getting KTFO drop drastically.

Well, no. The white guy started the altercation and escalated it to violence. He's wrong regardless of the outcome.

If the roles were switched and it was a black guy starting shit and swinging first, then hell yeah it's fair, next.

So the white guy was being abusive and threw the first punch?

I'm not saying I'd support making this legal on paper, but I'm definitely not going to complain about police not bothering to do their job on this one, especially with the "he threw the first punch" factor.

* If the racist guy on the street killed the FedEx driver, people would rightly be making a riot.

* If the FedEx driver was white, and the racist guy on the street that started shit was black, and FedEx guy punch-killed street guy in self defense, like it happened, I would still say "Fair. Next."

Racist initial aggressor is at fault, regardless of his race.
