Boy, 14, admits to causing stranger's death in Fort Worth (Knockout King Murder)
Star Telegram ^ | 1-5-12 | Terry Evans

A 14-year-old admitted during a hearing Thursday that he caused a stranger's death by hitting him without provocation. But the teen, who is not being identified because he is a juvenile, denied that he laughed about the assault as detectives questioned him after his arrest. Witnesses said the teen yelled something to the effect of "What did you say to me?" and got out of the car. One witness said he shouted at the teen that Gregory hadn't said anything to him and that the teen should leave Gregory alone. But the witnesses said the teen -- who is over 6 feet tall and weighs about 175 pounds -- hit Gregory once in the mouth. Gregory, who was 5-foot-1 and weighed 106 pounds, fell and struck his head on the pavement in the 1700 block of Vaughn Boulevard. He died two days later at John Peter Smith Hospital.

I realize that the perp is a “good boy”, “kind hearted”, “loves animals”, and was “just turning his life around.”
Good. Hang ‘em.

You forgot “he was an aspiring Rap artist” and “a wonderful father to his four children who live with their four different mothers”

I had a similar incident (almost) happen to me. I looked at a black kid with a bizarre hair doo in the car next to me at a traffic light. The kid made threatening gestures at me and when the light changed he stayed right beside me and harassed me for a mile or so, crowding my car and acting like he was going to side swipe me. I am an old woman and posed nor meant any threat to this kid but had I been on the sidewalk he would have come back and done something to me. I have no doubt. Whenever I see someone with tattoos all over their face and a weird hair cut I always think they are doing it for attention..... look at me look at me!

.....asked that the teen be allowed to stay at his mother's home -- where he is the oldest of about 10 children -- until he is sentenced.

She doesn't even know her own spawn count?

My guess and it is a guess is that kid is of extremely low IQ and about zero impulse control raised in an extremely racist culture, or basically a hate crime waiting to happen. Thanks liberals and the respectable conservatives I hope political correctness keeps you warm at night.

We had a cause celebre about 20 years ago in a local upscale school district where a welfare mother who was retarded did not even know all the names of her 9 children. She was moved out of district and the local sociopath white liberals wanted to dun the residents for not allowing her retarded children entrance to what was a good academic high school.

I know but so many folks here act so surprised when lower class black males act up.

I’ve been around it since Kennedy was killed. I was in first grade.

It’s gotten worse ...much worse as has thuggery in general...lack of daddies and societal tolerance

But I learned in January 1970 that many black boys did not have the fair fight concept that I was raised with. I learned this when they forced busing at my 7th grade class and we went from 10% black to 70%

needless to say...I went to private school the next fall

public schools there are now dead

They are a disaster here, too. The good black families do what they can to send their kids to private schools or sneak them into suburban public schools.

Huh? Ever been to Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland, etc.? Same thing where the Yankees live.

But the "yankees" don't really live there. They live in Glencoe, Grose Point and Shaker Heights.

The north is far more segregated than the south is.

I’m certain that the perps father feels horrible. Being so involved in his upbringing then to see him commit this crime.

“Assuming that the victim is of the same race as the murderer, it’s really amazing how little they care for their own. How can these people advance their status if they treat each other like crap?”

I didn’t bother to check the race of either one.

Back in 1973 or so, when I was in college, I asserted that the only way to correct the situation was to sterilize those of childbearing age and put the children in some environment in which the toxic beliefs of their elders would not be transmitted to them.

Now, of course, I wouldn’t condone such a wholesale violation of the constitution or of human rights.

That leaves me without a solution.

“I am an old woman and posed nor meant any threat to this kid but had I been on the sidewalk he would have come back and done something to me.”

God made man, but Sam Colt made them equal.

That goes for old ladies, too.

Don’t let those savages hurt you. Go all Rourke’s Drift on them.

“But I learned in January 1970 that many black boys did not have the fair fight concept that I was raised with. I learned this when they forced busing at my 7th grade class and we went from 10% black to 70%”

I was raised in segregated central Oklahoma. There were a lot of fistfights among the kids at my schools, which had no colored students. Indians, yes, negroes, no.

Back then there was an old, old saying, “Two against one is (the forbidden “N” word) fun.” That was enough to shame white kids into fighting one on one.

I would still pick Thomas Sowell for president, but I am just sick unto death with this white-hating, America-hating, self-defeating, slum savage mentality.
