RIP, James Stuhlman, and condolences to your family. Somebody needs to take care of this West Philly style.

This is why ‘Gun Control’ doesn’t work!
The 15 year olds aren’t supposed to have guns.
Obviously they didn’t tell the truth on their background check forms and lied about their ages.......................
As I suspected. There are two certified victim groups that have descended to a subhuman level and would be capable of this. One of them would do it for sneakers. The other, for praying the wrong way.
I am surprised the that Holder and Sharpton haven’t cried civil rights violation as that white guy traumatized those two poor Amish yutes by bleeding right in front of them.
take the firearms away from the law abiding but the criminals will still have their guns and use them to off their victim/witnesses. Screw CCW permits, they are illegal with respect to our Constitutional and natural legal rights. Carry so you can protect yourself and your family and to live another day and to deprive the thugs from the same.
The worthless killing the valuable, again and again. Instant justice is needed-at the point of the crime-let’em beg,bullet to the brain, call garbage pickup.
You can take the boy out of Africa, but you can’t take Africa out of the boy.
Print this article and take it to Starbucks. Leave copies in their lounge area. May these animals die young and very slowly.

In a rational world friends and neighbors of the deceased would find where these feral savages live and burn their homes to the ground.
sad ping
I could be wrong, but I haven’t seen this on ANY national news channels . . . not even FOX . . . am I wrong?
Would be great to show Obama’s sons so we can see that they’re just misunderstood little kids.
Why do we hear about these incidences from the UK media?
Go tell your liberal friends “We need to fundamentally transform black culture”.
Wonder if the punks at Starbucks would like to discuss this?
Today's news items from Philly.com (boldface type mine):
Friends mourn Overbrook man as cops nab alleged killer
NATE FULLER'S nightly walks with Bianca, his bichon, will never be the same.He's used to passing neighbors out with their own pooches. They talk, catch up, learn about each other.
A constant dog-walking companion was James Stuhlman, who lived a block away, on Woodcrest Avenue near 66th Street in Overbrook. Whenever the two met, the conversation would inevitably turn to landscaping, Stuhlman's trade, or "just life in general" as Bianca sniffed Molly, Stuhlman's labardoodle. It wasn't uncommon for Fuller to lose track of time, to stretch those "quick chats" into hour-and-a-half talks.
Now, Fuller is all too aware of time.
"I'm heartbroken," he said Friday night as sleet fell on his tree-lined street. "I'm still struggling; it still hurts."
Stuhlman, 51, was gunned down March 12 a few yards from Fuller's front door, the victim of a botched robbery by three teenagers.
Friday, the kid who allegedly pulled the trigger, Tyfine Hamilton, surrendered to police, Homicide Unit Captain James Clark said. It wasn't the first arrest on his record.
The 15-year-old and his family arranged a meeting with investigators, on Midvale Avenue near Wissahickon in East Falls, not far from where Hamilton's mother lives, Clark said.
He's been charged as an adult with murder, robbery and related offenses in Stuhlman's slaying.
Hamilton's arrest came a day after police announced they had captured his two accomplices: Brandon Smith, also 15, and a 14-year-old boy whose name hasn't been released.
Smith also faces a murder rap, police have said. Both teens, schoolmates at Overbrook High, have provided full confessions to police, Clark said.
The younger boy, who has cooperated with investigators, will be charged with robbery.
Friday, a young woman answered the door at Hamilton's home, on Wanamaker Street near Lebanon - about a mile away from Stuhlman's block.
She slammed that door in a reporter's face when he asked for a comment.
Before they allegedly cut down a family man and beloved neighborhood fixture, the trio were shooting hoops at a nearby park, Clark said. They decided they wanted to rob a dogwalker, and picked a target at random, Clark said.
Police sources say they acted like they had done this before - this likely wasn't the boys' first try at robbery, and detectives are currently searching for links to other attacks in the area.
In any case, that initial mark on Woodcrest Avenue seemed too threatening, his dog too aggressive. So, when they spotted Molly, who seemed "weak," and Stuhlman, who was older than the previous individual, the boys changed plans, Clark said.
The youths walked up to Stuhlman about 8:30 p.m., all wearing hoodies and backpacks. Hamilton allegedly produced a pistol - police still don't know how the boy got his hands on the weapon - and announced the robbery.
Stuhlman pleaded for his life, begging kids young enough to be his grandsons not to shoot him.
A fight broke out. A shot went off.
Stuhlman was hit once in the chest and collapsed, his valuables spilling into the street, where they remained when police arrived - after all that effort, the thieves fled empty-handed.
Officers took Stuhlman to Penn Presbyterian Medical Center, where he was later pronounced dead.
On Wednesday, Stuhlman's life was honored at a funeral at Presentation Blessed Virgin Mary Church in Wynnewood, a "packed service" that included practically everyone who lives on that stretch of Woodcrest Avenue, Fuller said.
He was laid to rest afterward in Saints Peter and Paul Cemetery in Springfield.
Friday night, Helen Farnon, another one of the regular dogwalkers on Woodcrest, choked up as she remembered Stuhlman.
"He was so pleasant," she said on her stoop. "He was one guy who knew what was going on in the neighborhood and made sure everyone was doing OK."
He was a thoughtful guy - he tended to the patch of the nearby Morris Park that abuts his property, clearing it of leaves in the fall and snow in the winter.
He was a family man - his daughter, Elaina, often joined him for his nightly walks with Molly.
Farnon was grateful that Elaina stayed home March 12.
She bristled at the mention of the kids accused of killing him, wishing she and her loudmouth pomeranian, Luke, would've been with Stuhlman that night.
"If I had been out there, maybe we could've scared those creeps away."
Third suspect in killing of dog walker surrenders
The 15-year-old boy who police say pulled the trigger in the killing of an Overbrook man turned himself in early Friday, accompanied by his father.Tyfine Hamilton has been charged with murder, robbery, and related offenses in the botched robbery that killed Jim Stuhlman, 51, while walking his dog last week on the 6400 block of Woodcrest Avenue.
Brandon Smith, 15, and a third boy, 14, who was with them were arrested this week. Smith will be charged with murder; the 14-year-old faces lesser charges.
All three are talking to police, a law enforcement source said Friday.
Police said the boys left a basketball game on the night of March 12 looking to rob someone. Hamilton carried the gun. The source said it was unclear how the gun came into the possession of a 15-year-old. The boys set their sights on one man walking a dog, but switched their attention to Stuhlman, police said, because he seemed older and his dog seemed weak.
Still, he was significantly taller than the boys, and Hamilton had to point the gun upward, into Stuhlman's face, the source said.
A brief struggle ensued. Stuhlman pleaded for his life but was shot once in the chest. Panicking, the boys ran. Stuhlman's dog, a Labradoodle named Molly, stayed with him until he was found on the sidewalk. He was pronounced dead a short while later.
Smith and Hamilton are also being investigated for several other robberies in Southwest Philadelphia, the source said.
Smith was arrested Thursday after 19th District officers saw him and the 14-year-old on a street corner and recognized them as matching the description of Stuhlman's attackers.
They darted into a house when they saw police, but were captured soon afterward.
Hamilton's aunt on Friday apologized to Stuhlman's family. Speaking to a CBS3 reporter, she said Hamilton was not taking medication for an unspecified condition.
Hamilton, police said, has been arrested twice as a juvenile, for narcotics and criminal mischief.
They are good boys.
They were turning their lives around.
The problem is the structural oppression of black people.
If Obama had sons, they would be like these boys.
(Am I missing anything?)
BTW, very odd this would be in the chat area...
White guy going for a walk around Overbrook?
Whites won’t do shit anymore
Their balls are hanging along with their tennis shoes on a telephone wire somewhere on any given Martin Luther King Blvd
Just look at the Mississippi hanging....likely a suicide anyhow
Just a hint of white vigilante action ....which is what lynchings were for the most part historically.....brings out the Coloring The News bunch and all Dems.....most PC Hannity GOP.....and the black rent a mob machine
I don’t know what turns this ship around anymore
They are winning
And civilization dies with their victory
The cost of bringing the brown and black world to parity will doom us and create Asian Masters
No question how this movie ends
Unless whites wake up
