Thomas Armstrong failed to properly supervise his 12 year old child.

Not sure how the law works in that state, but in many places
the two 16 year-olds would be charged with killing the 12 year old. But the “Armstrongs” have “insurance” on their minds for a reason — they think they won the lottery.

Quick correction typo or no —- Some dude in a hospital gown wandering around probably is pretty dangerous — to himself and others.

A 12-16 year old criminal with a gun and shooting at you can kill you just as dead as a 30 year old criminal shooting at you.
I see no reason not to shoot back to defend yourself.

That reminds me of the ‘Golden Spike’ story I have heard. ‘Gypsies’ claim their ancestors removed a ‘golden spike’ that nailed Jesus to the cross, and because of that they were allowed to steal.

I swear I read this long ago,has anyone else?

Also, how they going to get to school if they don’t steal the truck?

The TWISTED LOGIC of the 5 generation WELFARE recipients in the USA is downright AMAZING-—

IF I have Insurance on my vehicle—it is OK for one of THEM to steal it???

IF I have Insurance on my house-—it is OK for one of THEM to burn it down???

I once had a neighbor kid threaten to “BURN MY HOUSE DOWN WITH ME IN IT”-—he was about 10. I was about 30. About 1970 or so.

I told him he better get me with his first attempt—because I would shoot him & ONLY I would be talking to the judge-—HE would be in the morgue with a toe tag.

The very next day I contacted local officials-—got neighbors to sign a petition—the whole group was given 10 days to move out of area. Cops gave us EXTRA patrols until they were gone.

I ABSOLUTELY WOULD HAVE SHOT HIM-—NO QUESTION-—YOUNG AGE OR NOT. He was downright scary. Suspect he is in prison—if even still alive.

So that’s “common sense” to let punks shoot at you and steal your stuff?

Obviously there ain’t enough 12-year-old Negro thugz being shot and killed, because car-jacking still seems to be a popular pastime for the little monsters. I never thought I would be happy to see a 12-year-old shot and killed, but I guess I have simply had my fill of young black thugz, and now I am beyond happy - I am overjoyed. That is what being in a race war will do to you, I guess. I have become desensitized to it. Oh well. . . cue world’s tiniest violin playing We Shall Overcome-—
