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.

Sad. The bad seems to outweigh the good, doesn’t it?

I was offered a job by USS back in the early 60’s which meant I’d have to move from Pittsburgh to South Chicago. Man, did I dodge a bullet!

sorry punk- normal doesn’t = legal

people get arrested for shooting people that broke into their home and were trying to kill them, or for shooting people that shot at them outside the home— prosecutors claiming that the homeowner ‘didn’t do enough to try to escape a dangerous situation’, and This punk killed a person for simply looking at him?

I wondered about that too. Maybe they mean the West Side of Chicago? What he did might be more usual there.

The story has more to it: very apparent clinical paranoia. Which is often caused by excessive marijuana. Expect a lot more behavior like this.

Could you imagine if someone was snoring?

Yeah, John Wesley Hardin shot a man in a hotel for snoring. Hickok went after him, but Hardin escaped.

Guess if he was wearing a mask at the party, he wouldn’t have been seen smiling. Mask in this case would have saved a life./s

He should have been told to smile for his mugshot.

Like the latest fashion
Like a spreading disease
The kids are strappin' on their way to the classroom
Getting weapons with the greatest of ease
The gangs stake their own campus locale
And if they catch you slippin' then it's all over pal
If one guys colors and the others don't mix
They're gonna bash it up bash it up bash it up

Hey - man you talkin' back to me?
Take him out
You gotta keep 'em separated
Hey - man you disrespecting me?
Take him out
You gotta keep 'em separated

Hey they don't pay no mind
If you're under 18 you won't be doing any time
Hey, come out and play

By the time you hear the siren
It's already too late
One goes to the morgue and the other to jail
One guy's wasted and the other's a waste

It goes down the same as the thousand before
No one's getting smarter
No one's learning the score
Your never ending spree of death and violence and hate
Is gonna tie your own rope tie your own rope tie your own...
