Jury finds Roderick Scott not guilty (A black man, Roderick Scott, indicted for the self-defense shooting and killing of a white teenager.)

A story with the same title was posted at the time as an excerpt. That excerpt's link doesn't work now.

My source has a video. My story's text doesn't have black or white when I searched the text twice. I read it iwice.

So he followed them, and confronted them, and one 17 year old man responded with violence (or tried to) and got shot.

Reminds me of someone.

What do you think is least likely to be shown by the main stream media: This story or a celebration of the life of Dick Cheney?

Here’s a link: http://rochesterhomepage.net/fulltext?nxd_id=142712

Police say the “victim” was one of two youths who were breaking into cars at 03:30 am. Scott, a homeowner, armed himself and went outside and confronted them. One youths charged Scott and was shot dead.

If the point to this story is to compare it to the GZ case...fine.I’m too busy to research this case but I fully accept that there are circumstances where black people are justified in killing whites...”self defense” being the most obvious.White people,too,have been known to act in ways that a reasonable person...a reasonable person of *any* race...could see as acts representing a serious threat to their lives.And in such a situation deadly force can be used...used justifiably.

If it’s the same case I read about awhile back, I agree with the verdict. Not all that much different than Zimmerman’s case.

And Scott wasn’t even attacked, an unarmed teen just ran toward him. Yet we won’t hear anything about this in the media beside local media.

Who and where are our white race baiters to go stir this up to a frenzy? We have been let down again.

I agree with the jury once again. And I suspect that the forensic evidence from this case was also very clear, and supported the homeowner’s account.

The bottom line is that the honest citizenry has the right to defend itself against criminals. Color indifferent.

I'm pinging everybody because of the link that I found in my FReepmail yesterday.

Roderick Scott, a black man, was allowed to return to obscurity in Greece, NY in late 2009 after killing a white teenager in self defense. The story didn't mention the race of either party, but the video showed the defendant and the victim's families. White hispanic George Zimmerman is now infamous thanks to the BS media that wanted him crucified.

The shameless BS media that made nary a peep about Fast and Furious gun running to Mexican drug cartels under Holder, is now holding the water for the gun grabber's campaign against "stand your ground" laws, now in at least 31 states in one fashion or other. For some reason New Hampshire is missing from this map.

Blacks benefit from Florida ‘Stand Your Ground’ law at disproportionate rate

Stand Your Ground law critics push for Florida boycott

NRA blasts Holder for attacking 'stand-your-ground' laws after Zimmerman verdict

ERIC HOLDER’S STAND YOUR GROUND SQUIRREL

FReepmail me if you want no more of these relatively rare pings.

Everyone has a natural right to self defense.

I love a Happy Ending! I don’t care WHAT color a perp is when he meets his self-inflicted FATE.

Is that being Racist? *SNORT*

not enough trial info from the report

can’t tell if the situations - beyond the basics - were closely similar or very different

more info on the case need to judge

that is to judge the circumstances

BUT yes, where was the media in that case

absent because of the race of the shooter or the race of the victim???
