Man charged in fatal shooting of teen for ‘smiling’ says behavior is ‘just normal’ where he’s from in Chicago

RACINE, WI – A Wisconsin man charged with fatally shooting a 17-year-old in Racine told investigators he was from West Chicago and that type of behavior was “just normal” there, according to a criminal complaint.

Joshua Daniel, 18, was charged on Monday with first-degree intentional homicide and nine counts of first-degree recklessly endangering safety after prosecutors say he pulled out a gun and shot and killed a teen at a party last Friday.

Daniel told police that he thought people at the party were going to shoot him and that such behavior is normal in his hometown of West Chicago, according to the criminal complaint.

The complaint said Daniel went to a party with three women who he told police he believed were “setting him up.”

The complaint said that Daniel shot Bush “because he was ‘smiling and looking’ at him.” Daniel said he felt someone else was going to shoot him so he shot Bush first, the complaint said.

None of the three witnesses said they saw the victim with a weapon. The witnesses ran from the home following the shooting, according to prosecutors.

He is being trueful. That is the environment liberal Lightfoot create.

Liberals like to be your friend before shooting you in the back.

But, ultimately, you know, this is caused by White Supremacists.

Yes, many self-styled activists will tell you that there is no such thing as black-on-black crime. It’s a lie put forth by right-wing racists.

Why is it these thugs always look un-American.

“That is the environment liberal Lightfoot create.”

West Chicago is in DuPage County and about 35 miles from Chicago. It’s got a large Hispanic population dating from the mid 20th century when there was a large rail car maintenance yard located there.

Lots of 2nd and 3rd generation Mexican families there. And while this behavior is “normal” in Chicago it’s not in West Chicago.

This young murderer is already lost in a social sense. Already locked into a Thug mentality.
Some people are able to walk away from this lifestyle, but you have to really want to do it and to keep it that way.

If you’re from Georgia it’s normal for someone like Daniel to be seated in Old Sparky.

So, don’t be in Chicago.

That’s easy.

What a waste of life.

Both for the kid killed and even the killer whose life is destroyed.

Just a complete waste-

When they still had an Old Sparky in Huntsville, TX, people said you could tell when there was an execution, because their lights would briefly flicker.

Keep in mind, the killer wears a mild smirk in that photo probably because he is still a little bit proud of what he did. He still sees it as Law Of The Jungle.
He who shoots first wins.

Guy who did the shooting thought it was tough to open fire. Now he knows what the cost will be.

His next statement will be:

“Hey, I didn’t get shot so my action was successful.”
