I'd say more than likely.
A COMPLETE ACCIDENT?????? He got out of his car and punched him in the face!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WTF???? Were there no witnesses to this? Why was this a plea margin? Outrageous!!!!!!
Great article. Let’s see if it answers the basic journalistic standards?
Who?.... Yep
What?.... Yep
Where?...Almost, not specific
Why?....Nope
When? ... Nope
FAIL!
IOHAS: If Obama had a son...
He’s one of Barry’s kids... guess.
A friend of mines brother was eating at a wedding reception, minding his own business. Behind him two drunks got into an argument; the music was so loud no one heard them at first. One of these fools threw a wild roundhouse punch that connected with the back of Eric’s head. Eric went face down in his food and never moved again. It was prosecuted as negligent homicide IIRC
Another “youth” through the school-to-prison pipeline.
Quelle Surprise.
Sure it was accidental. /s
Meanwhile, Ethan Couch, the “affluenza kid” kills 4 and gets probation.
And this why I tell people is your right and responsibility to defend your life when confrontef by an aggressor, including using Zimmerman tactics if you fear your life and health are in peril.
It’s nice for the “turn the other cheek” crowd to implore one to be the “better or greater man” /s.....idiots and insanity.
There are three outcomes from a fight:
At best losing face for a small beating that will heal in a weak but, is still an injury which needn’t occurr but for some aggressive A-hole.

Your death
You have an absolute right to your life and defending yourself from any injury as any assault can devastate your health and quality of life.
Where?...Almost, not specific
Why?....Nope
When? ... Nope

not much better but......
The incident happened in September of 2012. Gleason was walking with two female
friends in an alley in south St. Cloud when one of them touched the car Smithers
was riding in. Smithers and the others in the vehicle got out of the car, and Smithers
threw a single punch knocking Gleason to the ground and causing him to hit his
head, knocking him unconscious.
Gleason regained consciousness at St. Cloud Hospital, but later died.

Good looking kid.
Too bad....
Hmmm. Sounds like the kind of son Obama would have if he had a son.
Well, we know it wasn’t a racial issue. Blacks can never be racists. Ask REVERAND Jeremiah Jones or Calypso Louie.
As it should have been. This perp should have gotten a 2nd degree murder charge at minimum, regardless of intent. What did the jag-off who killed your friend get?
I want to know: Will the FBI will go in -like they did with Zimmeraman - and interview everyone the perp’s known for the last 15 years to see if he’s made any ‘anti-white’ racist comments to anyone...
It’s all equal - law enforcement - justice - our rights - or IT’S NOT.
