He must have not liked his chances with a jury.

He already had a jury. They were hung. I think the problem was that the prosecution tried to over-charge in order to placate the homos.

Students and teachers at the trial testified that King had been dressing in women’s accessories and wearing makeup, and was flirting aggressively with male students on campus who did not want the attention.

School administrators sent a memo advising teachers to give King his space, but to report safety problems. Teachers at the trial testified that when they tried to report growing tensions between King and several boys, school leaders shunned them.

The victim’s mother, Dawn King, revealed for the first time Monday that she had contacted school officials four days before the shooting in an effort to solicit their cooperation in toning down her son’s behavior. The boy had been taken from the Kings’ home two months earlier by authorities because of problems at home.

She said she was told that her son had a civil right to explore his sexual identity.

I guess I live in a cave, for a story that got ‘international headlines’ this is the first I’ve heard of it.

I couldn’t care less that the victim was gay, this scum deserves 21 years, at least. Someone’s sex issues have nothing to do with it.

..”after days of conflict between the boys.”... Students and teachers at the trial testified that King had been dressing in women’s accessories and wearing makeup, and was “flirting aggressively with male students on campus who did not want the attention.”

‘School administrators’ sent a memo advising teachers to give King his space, .....but to report safety problems. Teachers at the trial testified that when they tried to report growing tensions between King and several boys,... “school leaders shunned them”.

The victim’s mother, Dawn King, revealed for the first time Monday that ...she had contacted school officials four days before the shooting in an effort to solicit their cooperation in “toning down her son’s behavior”. .....”The boy had been taken from the Kings’ home two months earlier by authorities because of problems at home.”

She said she was told that her son had a civil right to “explore his sexual identity.”

I posted this portion of the article because it reveals much about this case.....IMO what about the kids rights not to be hassled by a kid who is known to have many issues at home enough to remove him from the home....enough that teachers went to the school officials because of the issues he was creating for the other kids...but were shunned.

This does not excuse the boy who shot him...but where is it that we think any of our children are capable of handling disturbed and aggressive kids on a constant regardless of whatever reasons they are being agressive about.....but equally as much in this case having kids “accept” this aggresive behavior with the schools leaderships authority supporting that behavior by their refusal to intervene?

IMO the school leadership should have been charged....the kid who shot him should not have been given this lengthy jail term...you just can’t expect kids in the schools today as they are to handle these kids...it’s just sooo wrong!

The shooting happened in Oxnard. The offender was pressured and harassed by a flaming faggot and no superiors stepped in to fix the situation. So the offender grabbed a gun and killed the faggot. The teachers, administrators and parents are equally at fault since they prepared and set the table for the faggot’s murder. Evil was present on campus and no one stopped it except a young kid with a gun. He is guilty but the pressure on him was immense.

flirting aggressively with male students on campus who did not want the attention.

Aggressive gay sexual harassment is extremely offensive, and reliably produces violent responses from young heterosexual males who "do not want the attention." Had Larry King sexually harassed girls, I am sure that the school administrators would have responded quickly and appropriately. But when forced to choose between a gay harasser and straight young male harassment victims, the administrators decided to be politically correct. They decided to be "sensitive." Sensitive to the gay guy, who else? The kids he harassed would just have to take it, and take it, and take it. Their concerns did not matter, and their anger could be safely ignored.

Which led to a highly predictable outcome.

I hope he got the sentence for murdering a human being...not a gay human being.

Attacks against gays should not be viewed as more heinous than attacks against straight people.

This is one case where we won’t hear the Left wailing about how unfair it is to charge a 14-year-old as an adult.
