So her son can freely harm others with no consequences to himself?

Hopefully the judge will be enlightened and throw the case out.

This is why a number of people should not vote nor breed. Now we know why the son turned into an idiot...the parent is dumber than a sh*thouse Rat.

Was the perp a good boy who made a mistake and was getting his life back on track by going to community college?

Lawsuits like this are why we need “loser pays”. No lawyer would ever take a case like this again.

The Lebanese family that ran the grocery store in my old ‘hood in Queens all had 9mm under the counter, every cashier, and they damn well made sure the “community” knew it. And they never got robbed.

The mother should be tried as an accessory to the crime PRIOR to the fact and imprisoned.

Another poor Trayvon turning his life around, his grieving momma Latrina, and a progressive attorney to the rescue a John Edwards. Haven’t we seen this movie before?

I love krogers because they don’t put one of those stupid anti- ccw signs up at the front door.

The mother of a man who was shot dead by a manager during an attempted robbery of an Indianapolis Kroger has filed a federal lawsuit against the grocery store.

If she is allowed to continue this suit, setting precedent for suing people for doing stuff that's legal, then whether she wins or loses, I'm suing HER for committing acts which were legal but which could have the effect of making me less safe. Goose, meet gander!

A new “Trail of Tears” racist carnival featuring ________, to be featured on CBS, NBC, ABC, etc. on a channel near you soon. See the tears of the grieving mother whose cretin son was just in the store buying skittles and green tea when accosted and murdered.

This is an interesting lawsuit, as the excuse for these anti-gun policies has always been that they immunize the store by preventing lawsuits.

Wisconsin's act 35, the shall issue law passed last year, actually does immunize business owners, if they do *not* prohibit guns in their establishments.

former armed criminal

Elijah Elliot (left), the former Kroger store manager who killed a would-be robber

(this guy looks clean and righteous to me)

The Marion County Prosecutor's Office ruled in January that Elliot was justified in shooting Atkinson and would not face criminal charges. Elliot was fired by Kroger for having the gun while on duty and decided not to accept an offer to return to the store after he was cleared of criminal wrongdoing.
