“Society’s problems always start in the home. Teach your children to walk a Godly path and they won’t be pulling crap like this thus getting themselves killed.”
Except the guy who was killed wasn’t “pulling crap like” anything. He had nothing to do with the girls in the SUV.
This story is so short of details that I’m not sure that you can actually say that. Sure… the story says Niles was a ‘bystander’, but does not provide an evidence for that assertion. It was 1:30 am… why was he there? One assumes that if Niles was the one who had just dropped off the girls, that point would have been made in the article right? So one assumes that can’t be the case…. the article also says that “he followed her home”. What does that mean and what was the evidence for that? Was he friends with the thug girls in the SUV and was just following along behind them to watch the hell that was about to break out? Or was he friends with the 15 year old and had some insight into what was going on and thus what could happen and so was trying to see those girls safely home? Was he also in the nightclub with either groups of girls? Did he know any of them? More details needed in so many areas….the article says that Niles was in his car when he got shot but unless I missed it, the article doesn’t make it clear if he was simply driving the car down the road or was sitting parked in his car. Was he in his car but had he been out of it just prior to being shot? And when the father says that he acknowledged shooting him, did that mean that he took specific aim at him to shoot him? Or was he (as somewhat intonated) just a bad shot? I don’t know how any conclusions can be made from this and one wonders why it was so poorly written…. Did the 12 page document written by the judge not give any of these details?
Not that it has much to do the issue at stake but why were a bunch of 15 year olds in a night club?
The Bible also says to be careful of the company you keep.
