I am not going to acknowledge any such thing.
Had this same scenario happened to me I would have securely locked all my doors, obtained a defensive device, yes a loaded gun if need be, and while watching closely the action outside, would have phoned the police. If there were to come any action that I would interpret to be threatening or looking even remotely like an attempt to enter my domicile I would shoot in a minute. I’d for sure be telling the guy on the other end of the phone line that same thing.
I would NOT walk out into the mob and start shooting and your pretty words and grim verbs will not make me admit such a thing.
You just want to fight. John White just wanted to fight.
Must be something about certain folks and it don’t look like it has much to do with black and white.
These youths arrived at the White property intending to do harm after stalking the property out for some time, as video evidence from a neighbor's security cameras proved in court. They brought their little gang and a baseball bat, and court records show that the bat was testified to being in someone's hand outside of a vehicle at the scene of the shooting.
They shouted racial epithets and threats of violence, as the dead boy and his friends were known to do: The judge in the case refused to admit evidence that just days before at a Ford automobile dealership in their town, Daniel Cicciaro Jr. when approached by a black salesman, had said, “I don’t talk to niggers.”. Other stories at the time had testimony from contemporaries at their high school stating that their car club was a gang of would-be tough kids looking for trouble. Before and after the shooting incident, they were referring to the Whites as 'niggers' and testimony in court that wasn't challenged was that one of the boys said 'Come on, we can take that skinny nigger'. Remember that they had a baseball bat and refused to leave the White's property.
John White didn't just walk into a crowd and commence to shooting as you claim. That is false. Not even the prosecutor tried to make that case. White was assaulted by a sawn-off 125-pound 'little-guy acting tough' drunken squirt intent on committing violence on the White property over a mistaken joke that involved the unwitting son of John White. At the hospital where he died, Cicciaro's alcohol level was determined to be twice the legal limit to even be driving, presuming he was even of age to drink alcohol, which he wasn't.
You sure have a lot of sympathy for a violent drunken racist teenage trespasser and his gang intent on causing bodily harm to an occupant of a house who was mistakenly accused by these barbarians of something he didn't do.
