Is it now open season on Alzheimers patients? What is with the "shoot first" mentality?

Another episode of “Stand your ground” when there is no threat, and another dead person.

What right does a person have to shoot another person – harmless, 70+ year old Alzheimer’s patient? Even if the “stand your ground” law is in effect (arguable), where is the moral judgment necessary to decide to kill someone?
