1. There has to be SO MUCH more to this story

2. What was going on at 6:00 AM? The story makes it sounds like he proposed in a church and then got mugged on the way out?

3. More black in white violence? Mugging gone wrong? No witnesses? Etc.

That’s a lovely story.

Now what’s needed is a reward fund to smoke out the murderers and get them the death sentence they so richly deserve.

After the proper vetting, I think this could be a rallying event for people tired of being the victims of senseless violence. If some drug-addled fairy like Matthew Shepard or a hate-filled poseur like Rachel Corrie can become martyrs to Leftism, I don’t see any reason why a decent young man can’t become a hero for conservatives.

And if this turns out to be racially based, then his murder becomes the counterweight to the Trayvon sympathizers.

For most of my life I got up at four thirty and was on my way to work an hour later. Six AM is just part of the work day for lots of people.

24-year-old Indianapolis resident Nathan Trapuzzano stepped out the door last Monday, April 1 for his traditional morning walk on the west side...For no reason, a gunman ran up behind Nathan and forced him into an alleyway. As Nathan resisted and tried to break free, his attacker shot him in the abdomen.

I read about this case in another article. What could possibly be the reason he was "forced into an alleyway?" Killed for taking a morning walk? Or maybe because he was the "wrong" color?

Other article said it was to rob him of his cell phone.

I too wondered if there were more to this story...

For some reason, this story infuriates me.
Not that I can do anything about it - except it reinforces my determination to carry every-damn-where I go.

There are days when I make a conscious decision to leave my little friend at home because of where I'm going or what I'm wearing... but no more. I will carry everywhere, every day, and practice inbetween.
And woe be unto the first scum-sucking son of Obama that tries this on me cause I'm an old fart and unable to put up a decent fight any more - I'll just shoot his ass.

Trayvon Martin received overwhelming attention because he and Zimmerman were ethnically different.

The tragedy of Relisha Rudd is a case in point. This young black American 8 year-old’s life is a disgrace and illustrates why no national attention is being focused on her life, abduction and probable murder - at the hands of her own family and associates.

This is a long article and horrifying. Prayers for this innocent and neglected child.

Here’s what happened to me in 1974, as a victim in a robbery/shooting. I walked away from this one, by the Grace of God, and carry a 1911 .45 acp to this day. I also still have the bullet in my left side at the spine. I won’t be a victim, twice.

Indianapolis seems to be on the downward spiral into the pit of continual violence. Seems the more rallying they do the more violence there is.

Go read the article again. You must have missed that they had been married close to a year and that his wife had been pregnant with their baby girl

Not reported is the crime was committed by sons of Obama. No protests will be held. No vigils. No black community leaders will march for justice. It is just another racial crime swept under the rug because the victim, is white.

He was taking his normal early morning walk before going to work. Nothing nefarious. Just getting a little exercise in the morning. I used to run first thing in the morning before going to work.

Yes more Black on white crime. He took the same walk every day. The thugs probably had cased him out to rob him. Life is cheap in the Black inner city.

That is messed up on so many levels. Her family needs to take a look at their lack or participation that made this possible and quit blaming “the man”
