“And most everyone here would be rightly defending the boy’s use of deadly force. Why not now when the boy is black?”
I read those comments as pointing out the hypocrisy of Minaj and the legacy media.
If the mom and boy were white with a dead black man on the ground, they would both be in jail with charges pending. The DA would charge the mom with murder, the boy with murder and the boy with illegal possession of a firearm and the mom with contributing to the delinquency of a minor.
The DA would be moving to try the 14 year old as a white supremacist adult.
And the DA would be adding hate crime charges.
Minaj, Crump and Sharpton would be conducting anti-hate candlelight vigils and demanding that the city give them money.
Of course this was appropriate case of self-defense or defense of another. The only legitimate charge would be the handgun possession charge against the minor and, if the mom gave him the gun, contributing to delinquency.
Good points. Thanks for bringing them to my attention.
