I was checking to see if anyone else had pointed that out.

When Mom’s got one last-name and the kid’s got another, it tends not to end well.

Taking a look at this "child", all I can say is..."Good shootin'!"

It would only have been a matter of time before this "child" committed another act of crime and possibly killed an innocent person. HE was NOT innocent.

I have never seen any group perfect the art of making excuses for bad behavior anywhere near the skill level of blacks. Nothing they do is bad or their fault...always that of others.

The other perp can and probably will be charged with felony murder for his partners death.

For at least the last 40 years, there have been nuns, and nuns. A good 1 second indicator is whether the nun is wearing a full habit. Click to find a current picture from the order in question: cppssistersdayton

I’m pretty sure we’ve all done something that could cost us our lives at the age of 16.

Yeah, like I joined the Navy and went to VietNAMMMM. Learn how to use all kinds of firearms. Got out at 20 and went to college.

“And I want every parent to understand,you can say it, because I’ve said it before, ‘not my kid, my child would never do anything like that’ You can say it all day but once that child walks outside your door, you’re no longer around him, you do not known what that child will do,”

I believe that all the parents of 16 year olds that I know have a certainty that their children will not be committing any armed robberies in their absence.

Naturally, nobody's snitchin'...

The black community with their systems of protecting criminals are reaping what they've sown...once again. It's hard to pull up pity for folks who endlessly repeat the same dysfunctional choices - then blame everyone but themselves - - "nobody snitchin'" is part of that...

Has a democrat or poverty pimp come forth to blame guns or whites? Or recommended a 'march'...

Well, legally it IS a homicide, as opposed to, say, an accident. Justifiable homicide, from all I’ve read of the matter.

The article did not say the store owner was CHRAGED with homicide.

“He was just a child trying to be a teenage,”

Sure we all robbed stores at gun point as we grew up. What an alibi!

The town where I grew up was the same way. I had grandparents and grandparents living in the same little town and they knew everybody.

Every death is classified as accident, natural causes, or homicide. If somebody is killed intentionally it is homicide. No value judgment, that’s what it is.

Ma’am, there are bad decisions and there are bad decisions. And walking into a strip-mall clothing store, pulling a weapon and trying to hold them up is a bad decision.

No calls for lynching the store owner? Spike Lee's not tweeting the store owner's home phone and address? The New Black Panther Party hasn't issued a wanted poster with the store owner's picture on it?

Hmmm. The only conclusion I can come to is that the store owner is black like the perps.

“He was a young child that made a bad decision that cost him his life, But he was only 16. I’m pretty sure we’ve all done something that could cost us our lives at the age of 16. He was not a bad kid. He was just a child trying to be a teenage,” said Haggins’ mother Candace Talbott.

surely, this is satire...

A "bad choice" is deciding that your car can make it to where you're going without getting gas and then running out of gas.

A deadly, stupid choice is trying to leap off a hundred foot cliff and see if you'll live....or trying to rob a store at gunpoint when there's a good chance the owner is armed.

"I wonder what Isaiah Haggin, Sr. had to say. Probably too distraught to speak to the media."

Probably doing time for murder and armed robbery. Either that, or "he daid."

Only four times. Must have been a revolver.

I guess the store owner should have just let himself get shot.
