You are an idiot. Look out your window at 2:30 am and see a cop? I'm an old white guy and if I hear noises outside my house I'm going for my gun. If I hear sirens and see flashing lights, I will react differently. Lay down and curl up is not responsibility2nd.
What is wrong with preparing to defend yourself from an intruder in your back yard at 2:30 AM? If YOU hear someone moving around on your property at night, do you offer cookies?
Nope. If I were her - I would have fired away.
The temperature at the time of the shooting was about 40 degrees. That’s too cold to have the door open.
Weird time for a little kid to still have his eyes open after supposedly being in school the day before but it’s possible.
A welfare check should be done by the cops going up to the front door to make sure she’s ok. If there were bad guys around at 10 pm when the neighbor first noticed the open door, then it’s more than likely they’d not still be hanging around 4 1/2 hours later when the cop showed up. So, there’s no reason for him to go sneaking around the house and certainly not identifying himself.
But Amber didn’t identify herself when she blew away her neighbor.
I am getting tired of doing research for other people.
I wish she would have just shot out the window at whatever was in the bushes.
As a defensive shooter and responsible gun owner, I am accountable for every round that goes down range. I don't want any misses, so I am always sure of my target and what's behind it or between me and the target. Your philosophy as applied here is scary and, as I said, irresponsible.
I always just assumed your nickname had something to do with the 2nd amendment and being a responsible gun owner. Obviously that's not it.
Time and the kid being up at 2am. It’s what was reported. What’s your problem?
That they were up at 2am playing video games with the front door open and the temp’s in the 40’s. There’s more to the story than what’s currently being reported.
Yeah. No one likes free natural ac in Texas.
They were probably cooking crack, right?
“If I were her - I would have fired away.”
My wife once picked up a gun and checked out strange noises at night in our backyard. I was overseas at the time. There was a guy in our backyard.
If she had shot him, she would have killed our neighbor’s drunk teenage kid.
Glad she didn’t shoot first and look later.
Well, seems the DA thinks there is enough evidence to try for murder, not premeditated. Unless it’s just politics to placate certain leftist/blm factions....
And why would we care about some clown named Tommy? Is he the Opinion King that we all must read?
Old news.
“You are an idiot. Look out your window at 2:30 am and see a cop? I’m an old white guy and if I hear noises outside my house I’m going for my gun. If I hear sirens and see flashing lights, I will react differently. Lay down and curl up is not responsibility2nd.”
Agree 100% about idiot. Responsibility2nd is quite the misnomer for him. Shot dead in your own home by a cop outside. To even try to defend this is just plain stupid.
“Which was to creep up in the dark and shoot the homeowner dead.
The fact that you think this is a great job of policing is so utterly bizarre I’m not sure you’re living on the same planet as the rest of us.”
Exactly! Morons like this give gun owners a bad name. Dummy should be booted of off FR.
Her nephew was awake past the approved bedtime! Shoot her!
You been chatting with Elvis and JFK at the home?
I did not see her in THAT video either, but I did see her in about the last maybe 2 seconds of another video. In that one it appeared to me that she was holding a possible long gun pointed up. It also appeared to me that the officers shot was a premature discharge, while he was screaming show me your hands! when he said hands.
Except no long gun was found that I know of.
Also, why would someone who is looking at a gun being pointed at them say show me your hands?
It seemed to me like he got scared and accidentally discharged his weapon entirely too early, resulting in her pointless murder.
The mayor, the police chief and other public officials are poisoning the potential juror pool (public) and making it impossible for the officer to get anything even close to resembling a fair trial at this point.
Whoever the officer's lawyer is, he'd best get that trial moved elsewhere.
