An Arkansas man shot and killed a 15-year-old girl this weekend after she and other pranksters egged a car outside his house, police said.

Willie Noble, 48, of Little Rock has been charged with murder in connection with the fatal shooting of Adrian Broadway, according to Little Rock Police Lt. Sidney Allen. Noble and Broadway are African American.

Noble allegedly ran out of his house and opened fire just before 1 a.m. Saturday, Allen told The Times. Broadway and a half dozen other teens had dumped a mix of eggs, mayonnaise and leaves on a car outside his home in a middle class area of southwest Little Rock, Allen said.

Will Al and Jesse side with Noble or the pranksters? Or avoid the matter?

There is no way to justify killing a kid for egging your car.

Damage to an auto is NOT worth shooting someone over.
But the little monsters would never have been properly punished. They have probably never been punished in their entire lives.
I’m glad I’m not going to be on the jury.

My husband and I were talking about the Dunn case this morning. I said, this type of thing is only going to escalate. We're going to see a LOT more shootings and instances of "regular folk" taking matters into their own hands. Mostly it will be whites, but decent people of all ethnicities are simply SICK AND TIRED of the B.S. Ever see the movie "Falling Down"?

Sure there is. I just did. Don’t screw with other peoples property and the chances of catching a bullet are reduced to nearly zero.

Run around in the middle of the night destroying people’s property and the chances of catching a well deserved bullet rose exponentially.

No sympathy from me.

If there’s a threat involved, then self-defense is justified.

However, egging an empty, stationary car is a minor crime — no where near death-penalty serious.

In my very blue state if I brandished a firearm I would have been arrested and lost any CCW I might have.

In a state with ‘stand your ground’ I might have gone out with a flashlight focused on ME with my weapon visible.

No need to kill someone over mayonnaise.

Just because the shooter was black doesn’t mean racism isn’t involved. He probably heard all those evil white folks talk mean about black yutes, and it caused him to be afraid.

Not unlike a cop killing a chained dog at the wrong house.

Haven’t seen much Twilight Zone so I can’t say.

As for “Falling Down” it’s from the early ‘90s and for all I know, there’s probably some liberal message about white racism involved. Been awhile since I’ve seen it. But what I remember is a guy who is simply DONE being told to wait in line, wait his turn, accept substandard service, substandard everything.... and finally says, the hell with this, I’m TAKING what I want/need and getting home to my kid on her birthday! And what I remember is everyone thinking: HELL YES!!!!

Very sad. This is what paintball guns are for IMHO.
