He chose poorly.
Correction.
When your relatives and community ARE CRIMINALS, it is hard to lead an honest and productive life.
Move from that community.
I’m afraid they believe it is “owed” to them and this culture has perpetuated so long I doubt the cycle can be broken. Last nite the wife and I were in a fast food place that had a tv on the wall, Obama was on espn doing his basketball picks when I heard a VERY YOUNG black child at another table chanting “obamanation” “obamanation” “obamanation”.......................that kid didn’t come up with that on his own that’s for sure.
steal. die. don’t steal. live. tough choice
I suspect that entire extended family could be wiped out and the human race would struggle on without them somehow.
And ... “Clothes for school?” B**** please, he wasn’t trying to get clothes for school. Look at the clothes he’s already got in that picture. This type of person is worse than useless. They are parasites and predators.
I don’t know about Florida, but I know that in New York you are not allowed to shoot, if they are fleeing. You are only allowed to shoot if they pose a threat to you or someone under your care.
#BLACKLIESMATTER considers violent crime to be a legitimate career path, and armed victims to be an OSHA violation.
She did. But then she disagreed. Perhaps if he had just been more convincing.
Look at it from his point of view? Not during a home invasion.
For the same amount of time he spent burglarizing and then trying to sell stolen goods he could have probably asked the homeowner if they wanted a couple of hours work for pay
THAT’S how he could get some money for clothes.
Not cause hundreds of dollars of damage/loss for a few dollars and hours lost time.
Seriously... How stupid are these people?
I still say;
If shooter be white and shootee be black, shooter be fooked.
If the criminal Just-us system doesn’t get her, the civil Just-us courts will.
Trevon Slick Johnson
...I’m thinking the name “Slick” was for a reason. My Doctors nickname isn’t Slick. Nor my lawyer, nor my accountant, nor my Realtor. Or anybody in my entire extended family of law abiding citizens.
I think “accessories” in a more appropriate term than “relatives.”
The cops should looking for reasons to bring them in.
The whole damn family should be in jail. I would issue search warrants for each of their homes to find out what stolen items they might possess since this is what they do for money
He broke into some one else’s hoe to steal. As such, he was a mortal threat to the people in the home.
They had every right to recognize an intruder as such.
I know the parents and relatives are grieving...but the facts are what they are.
If they do not want their teenagers shot while engaging in burglary...teach them not to commit If they do not want their teenagers shot while engaging in burglary.
If Trevon II had raped and killed the woman, then I suppose they would be defending that too. That somehow she had it coming to her.
Nope.
This woman had friends in the home with her. I am not sue who it was, but Mr. Ruger, or Mr.Smith and Mr. Wesson, or Mr. Colt are all more than happy and ready to help their friends defend themselves and their families.
It’s unfortunate that there aren’t more details about the confrontation the homeowner had with this burglar. That fact that she shot him outside as he was trying to leave indicates that this might not have been a clean shoot. Unless he threatened her or tried to physically attack her she may not have had sufficient reason to shoot him.
It takes a village.
