Ersland turned his back on the downed robber, went and got another gun, walked back, and promptly emptied 5 shots into him while he was still on the ground.

I understand the adrenaline. I even understand the sentiment. But you can't walk up and pump 5 shots into an unarmed person lying on the ground, even if he just took part in an armed robbery, if you want to keep walking the streets as a free person.

Not unless you're a cop, anyway. And maybe not even then.

From another article that tells a lot more about the perps:

He was in the ninth grade at SeeWorth Academy, a charter school, his mother said.

“We was trying to get his grades up,” she said. “A lot of times SeeWorth would frustrate him because they had so many rules.”

Jennings said her son still would get scared of the dark. “At 16, he didn't sleep with the lights off. Antwun still sucked his thumb,” she said.

She said the boy did not see much of his father. “He never tried to be any type of a role model or father figure,” she said.

And THAT, my friends, is about the bottom line.

The mother is a real piece of work. At least I don’t have to worry about her son trying to rob me. (this one anyway)

The bottom line is “DO NOT PARTICIPATE IN ARMED ROBBERIES IF YOU EXPECT TO BE WALKING TOMORROW.”
