A stray bullet had struck the child when authorities say Marquel Cockrell, the co-owner of Sole Addicts, chased multiple people he accused of shoplifting out of the store and opened fire, the report said


You don’t be shoplifting from a black brother’s store or you will get shot

“Marquel Cockrell, the co-owner of Sole Addicts,”

Oh, dear God. Stories like this make we wonder about this country’s future. If the languages weren’t so hard, I’d move to Poland or the Czech Republic.

Cockrell, 20, was located around 9 p.m. in Nevada by the Nevada Highway Patrol and taken into custody on a warrant for attempted murder.

He had his bail set at $1 million.

I’m for gun rights as much as possible, but you don’t chase people down the mallway shooting a gun at them for shoplifting.

As with the NYC subway shooter, Sailer’s Law is vindicated again.

Nope. Not self defense. He’s going to prison, and a beautiful little girl is dead.

The girl, Ava, was taken to the Loma Linda University Medical Center, down the Cajon Pass from Victorville, where the shooting occurred. That’s a good distance away. The High Desert has hospitals and medical facilities, but frankly none that can provide the level of trauma care, surgery, and specialists as can LLUMC. Thank God for that one positive.

A 9-year-old California girl mistakenly shot Tuesday at a mall when a store owner opened fire on alleged shoplifters was waiting to take photos with the Easter Bunny, according to a local report.

The 9-year-old girl shot at a mall? Did she hit it?

And what do the shoplifters waiting for the Easter Bunny have to do with it?

She’s not dead. Wounded and recovering in the hospital.

Liberals will just say we’ve got to stop prosecuting thefts under $5,000 and make it illegal to try to stop the thief’s.

Morally I see nothing wrong with shooting a fleeing shoplifter but one must “know the target and what is behind it” before shooting.

We’ll the girl is not dead but I agree with you that you don’t have a right to use a gun in this manner. It’s recklessness.
