Someone with photoshop needs to resurect the Lootie Guy in St Louis. Perhaps near the Arch.

This from the kid's mother:

She added that she doesn't understand why police didn't subdue her son with a club or Taser

I think we're going to find out that like Trayvon Martin that this kid was no boyscout --

Either that or it would be the first legitimate job the lawyer ever got...

That jagoff reminds me of "attorney" Algonquin J. Calhoun (of Amos and Andy fame.....)

“St Skittles II”

Methinks you’re right. The current decedent is being referred to as an “unarmed teenager,” who was shot and killed after an altercation with the police. However, as with the media’s description of the Martin affair, there is no description of the surrounding circumstances that led to the shooting. That very failure to give full details says it was probably a justifiable homicide, given all the as yet undisclosed facts.
