180 bucks!?!, I’d say he was robbed already
“outside an Atlanta shoe store”
Do I have to say it?
One account says he shot the would be robber dead then got right back into line to get his LeBron basketball shoes.
Hanging one scoundrel, it appears, does not deter the next. Well, what of it? The first one is at least disposed of.In this case one less scoundrel is roaming the streets of Atlanta.
I hope the shoe store had the decency to give this dude his pair of shoes for free.
Moral of the story:
If you’re buying $180 sneakers endorsed by the star of the Miami Heat, it’s a good idea to be packing heat.
If theranytime thing I learned from being raised on American media and educated in American schools is that institutional racism somehow, in some way, is the reason why this fine scholar shot this other fine scholar.
Had he been wearing $180 sneakers, he probably could have run another yard or two.
“$180 sneakers endorsed by Miami Heat star LeBron James”
Too bad he doesn’t endorse working hard, staying in school, getting good grades, marriage before pregnancy etc..... that might actually help someone.
The Amish shoe store, where this sort of thing almost never happens.
Any photos or descriptions of the two individuals involved? “Little Five Points” isn’t an amish enclave. It’s a punk/”hispter” area (or it use to be). The regular “Five points” is 100% amish.
“people lined up outside Wish Clothing to buy new $180 sneakers endorsed by Miami Heat star LeBron James.”
Do they got the velcro?
“I’m walking on sunshine...woe, woe...”
Ten bucks says that the gun used to shoot the robber was not properly acquired, and I bet it holds more than seven bullets. On the positive side is sounds like the guy had good aim - no mention to how many times the perp was shot.
The Atlanta police are being *very* slow in identifying the decedent. I don’t see any reason why. The crowd was black, the man who defended them and shot the robber was black. Is it because the robber was black as well?
Maybe the PD doesn’t want to give black people the idea that it’s okay to defend themselves with guns.
