On Saturday, Sept. 17, shots rang off inside Northpark Mall in Ridgeland, Mississippi, as 16-year-old Za’Lill D’Chelle Patterson attempted to steal from a popcorn store.

As reported by CBS 42, the shooting occurred around 5:20 p.m., when Patterson pulled out a gun after she was caught trying to shoplift from the store by the owner. According to Ridgeland Police Chief Brian Myers, the threatened store owner shot Patterson in the leg in self-defense.

Inside the mall, the gunshots caused major panic. In one documented moment, a father and his son were spending time together, enjoying the day while the child was trying on his first pair of Jordans. The father was recording their moment when suddenly the shots were fired. The duo ran inside a nearby store for safety. Thankfully they were not hurt.

As reported by WJTV, shoppers inside the mall, consisting of parents with their children and elderly people, immediately made a dash for it, in fear for their lives.

...(snip)...

The owner of the store was not charged with anything.

Our would-be masters in the self-anointed Ruling Class, along with their propaganda department known as Big Media, DO NOT WANT us to read honest headlines.

The armed robber should’ve been dead. Zero recidivism. Instead, she’ll probably be out on bail already, and will commit more crimes throughout her life. How many people will be injured or die because of her?

I simply do not understand.

1) Person tries to rob me.
2) Catch said person
3) Would be “Robber” pulls out a gun, thereby threatening my life
4) I shoot the robber IN THE HEAD, not the leg; because they may return fire if I simply would them. Then I am dead, because I lacked the ability to act decisively.

Za’Lill D’Chelle Patterson

Not just one, but two apostrophes.

Now if her name was spelt like this:

Za*Lill D'Chelle Patterson

and she was shot in the butt...

Her name becomes ZaLill D'Chelle Patterson, and she wouldn't have an *

She looks older than 16 in her mugshot:

She looks as though she has been beaten continuously and severely with an industrial grade ugly stick.

I counted 13 shots. I wonder if the kid trying on shoes ran with them.

French meaning: French feminine form of Michel. Taking a guess, something like "Its the Lilly from Michelle."

Can't say if these are all real. Some are.

I wasn’t there. Neither were you. I certainly wouldn’t complain about a fatal outcome for her. I’m also not going to complain too much about the actual outcome.

And we ALL need more practice. Always.
