The dad, and the dead perp gets the Darwin Award.
I suspect, that it is possible, that the father was a black man. It seems to me if he were a white guy, the headlines would have been something like "racist white supremacist, who hates blacks, kills a misunderstood aspiring rapper, who was turning his life around, and loved his dog and loved his mother. All he wanted, was to borrow some money from the previously mentioned black hating, creepy ass cracker, white racist, to buy some skittles." Did I leave anything out?
Now, what the media does not tell about the actors, tells the readers more about the story than who wrote the story does.
Yes you did forget something ... You forgot the Skittles!!!
