‘Our friend just got knocked out’: 911 call released in fatal beating of Ohio teen Ethan Liming
NY Post ^ | June 19, 2022 | By Jesse O’Neill

A 911 call made from the basketball court of an Ohio high school founded by LeBron James raises more questions than it answers about an incident that left a high school junior dead.

Ethan Liming, 17, was beaten to death in the parking lot of the I Promise School in Akron on June 2. Three men have been arrested in connection with the homicide, which officials said erupted after Liming was shooting a water gun at people on the court.

“We’re at the I Promise school in Akron, Ohio,” one of Liming’s friends told a 911 operator during a 10:42 p.m. call on the night of the fight, according to Fox News.

“Our friend just got knocked out. We don’t know what to do.”

As the operator asked if the fight was still going on, a voice in the background was heard saying, “Hey, man. We’re sorry, man. We didn’t mean it,” according to the report. One of Ethan Liming’s friends told the dispatcher there was a fight but everything was “OK” and “cool” afterward. Family Handout The caller said “there was” a fight before reportedly telling the dispatcher, “It’s OK, though. It’s cool now. It’s cool now.”

When asked if Liming is breathing, the caller said, “Yeah, he’s breathing. He’s breathing.”

A commotion could then be heard in the background in addition to a voice that said, “I’m not trying to fight, though,” before the call abruptly ended, leaving it unclear if the fight was over or escalating, according to the outlet.

Cops arrived at the court three minutes later and found Liming unresponsive, the report said.

No impulse control. None. You are supposed to quit lashing out wildly on impulse after you get beyond your terrible twos, nor through your terrible twenties.

Note:

“Ethan Liming, 17, was beaten to death in the parking lot”

AND Ethan Liming was a “white boy” (i.e. racist)

A $68 water gun? I never paid more than 68¢.

The old play stupid games win stupid prizes principle seems to have some validity in this situation. "I know! For fun, lets go over to the hood and douse some brothers who are trying to play ball with our $68 super soakers and see what happens. It is genius I tell you, genius."

Let's see....if I were playing basketball with my friends and a car load of idiots came by and shot us with paintballs, would I/we go after them to kick their butts?

The answers are easier if you leave race out of it.

Not really. The “weapon” was shaped and sized like an automatic, shooting 8 water-soaked beads with every trigger pull, after dark (I think?), from a moving car, while the guys were playing basketball. In Akron that may not be a totally unrealistic assumption.

Rice is an excellent school. I had a buddy that went there.
Remember, intelligence isn’t wisdom or street smarts. I lived in Wilmington DE for 14 years and went to public school.
My experience has taught me to avoid blacks.

Blacks have ruined every single city in America.
I will never go to one again, except to the airport for vacation.
I work fully remote now, so I no longer need to live in the Philly area.
I’ll be moving eventually...

Gunfire yesterday at one of Virginia's most upscale malls.

And on Juneteenth Weekend.

Police are responding to reports of shots fired at Tysons Corner Center

As usual, can you imagine the uproar if 3 white teens killed a black one by "accident"?

Democrats have turned Lady Justice into a drunken whore, blindfold dropped while democrats stuff dollar bills up her g-string putting their fat thumbs on her scales.
