"When deputies arrived at the scene, Padgett was performing CPR on Durham, who was lying on the side of the road. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

...

"The sheriff's office has not said what exactly led up to shots being fired Wednesday morning. They are still reviewing the 911 call from the scene and say Padgett -- whom they described as cooperative -- was released pending review of the case by the State's Attorney's Office."

Until we get in more details, because no arrests were made this looks to me like a lawful self defense case, possibly by a concealed carry holder.

But instead of Malcolm X Boulevard it happened at Malcolm Forbes Boulevard. Otherwise it could have gotten really bad.

What's the over/under on grills made out of cut in half 55 gallon drums and bullet proof glassed stores with Olde English 800 signs.

“The exchange happened on Dr. MLK Jr. Boulevard...
Of course it did. “

Yeah, if you want to get to the center of black crime and lawlessness in any city o town, just get yourself over to the local MLK Blvd. What a shame that this man’s legacy is having streets named for him in places where even he wouldn’t go were he alive today!

And said citizen isn’t gloating, and has to go through a legal grill.

And what do you think God is saying at any death? Has He forgotten what He wrote in the bible?

Your ending is sad.

No clue where Dinosaur World is and no where I could find at the site where the station is located. Guessing Florida since there are stories about gators.

But who knows since there’s also a video from there showing a woman being mauled and another being killed by a tiger. Uh, hellooooo, follow the rules and don’t get out of your car at a tiger wildlife park. Sorry for them but geez how stupid.

Details are sparse. I’m thinkin’ the convicted road rager tried to start something and got shot. I guess his rage finally abated.

I find it interesting that God usually vets out His vengeance on evil people by using even more evil people. We don’t know what happened except that some road rager who has killed before is now dead. Justified or not.

God didn’t forget what He wrote in the Bible BTW:

“The arrogant cannot stand in your presence. You hate all who do wrong. You destroy those who speak lies; the Lord ‘abhors’ the bloodthirsty and deceitful man” (Psalm 5:5-6).

“The Lord examines the righteous, but the wicked, those who love violence, he hates with a passion.” (Psalm 11:5).

“There are six things the Lord hates,
seven that are detestable to him: haughty eyes,
a lying tongue,
hands that shed innocent blood,
a heart that devises wicked schemes,
feet that are quick to rush into evil,
a false witness who pours out lies
and a person who stirs up conflict in the community.” (Proverbs 6:16-19)

What does “vet out” mean? It is not a dictionary term I am familiar with.

Surely those who say they are of Christ but actually are of obdurate hard heart will miss the most significant thing God says, which is that He takes no delight in the death of the wicked.

And they will also act as though all men are islands. What about relatives of or dependents on this fellow? Aw don’t worry, the welfare state will pick it all up for them!

Why are MLK Jr. Boulevards’ some of the most dangerous places to be here in the U. S.? Rosa Parks Boulevard in Detroit is similarly unsafe. Maybe an Al Sharpton Street would be bucolic,pastoral, and pleasant.
