And the $3,000 cash was just sitting on the dashboard? C’mon, man!
Don’t YOU always keep your large amounts of cash on the dashboard for all to see?
A used one from 1997 - 2003 would go for that price.
Stupid? Naive? Gullible? Sure, but that sure doesn't mean they should be murdered for it.
“””””Buying a car at midnight?”””””””
And with cash. When a deal sounds too good to be true......
Two wrongs never make a right.
“LetGo is now part of OfferUp; I wonder if OfferUp would now be the plaintiff here? I can’t imagine some lawyer can’t tie LetGo to this result.”
Maybe there should be an “urban” version of these classified services called GetShot. You are REQUIRED to carry a weapon when buying and selling, or you get shot.
Nope. Just have to read FR. :-)
The minute they saw that face they should have never stopped. You wouldn’t want his car anyway IMO. Ask any used car dealer why.
“The great sadness is the broken lives caused by selfish brats.”
Brats?? That’s the best you can come up with?
Horrible to think of how ‘the state’ will destroy these kids future. Hope there is close family.
The puke is 18. He’s an adult.
2018 there were over 1400 Whites murdered by blacks in the US.
That's one about every 8 hours.
I have a feeling things have expnentially accelerated.
Yeah, there's a lot of racism in this country but it's not coming from Conservative White people.
Yes, that’s where we are now...
I’ve bought and sold stuff online, but nothing that required me to carry or accept this much cash. Some towns around me (I’m between Newark and Jersey City in NJ) have areas at police stations where people can meet for this.
I always use a busy area (supermarket parking lot or such) outside of the danger zones, and only meet in daylight - I want the buyer to clearly see what they are buying, and I want to clearly see what I’m buying.
Sad story for this couple and their children; not uncommon when I sell something to a female she shows up with others as security.
They met at a busy mall. He produced a title and said he had grabbed the wrong title by mistake. He asked them to follow him to his nearby apartment where he would run inside and grab it. When they arrived there... that’s when he tried the robbery.
It’s in the local Denver news, but I didn’t see anything in the national propaganda organs.
but but... he needed the money
Some years ago I was reading a local hobby bulletin board. One post was from someone new, a young kid who described himself as interested in the topic (he seemed precocious) and who said he wanted to meet one of the posters at a certain location to buy some items.
I didn’t like the “feel” of the conversation. The other poster responded to him with interest. I felt like warning him that it didn’t seem right. It seemed (to me) like this kid was luring the poster to a location for some sort of encounter the poster might not have expected, under color of someone wanting to buy some objects.
Just a feeling I had.
Blacks make up only about 4.5% of the population in Colorado. Doesn’t matter. You just knew the murderer was going to be black. Sorry. I am just speaking the truth.
“SAY THEIR NAME!”
I’ve seen several black pieces of s#%T get in the faces of innocent people demanding “Say their name!” These sacks of s#$t need to reel off the names of all the innocent people so many IMMORAL, UNCULTURED, UNTAMED and VIOLENT blacks have committed against others before I say anyone’s name.
I would say that the victims were liberals. Sweet delusional inexperienced children with loving hearts. That’s the problem we have. Programmed children since 1960, no matter how old.
Why is it that we have to learn these stories from a foreign news source? Are stories like this something the USA media don’t want us to hear about?
If a white had done this to a black family, it would be all in the news.
