“‘“He was a young child that made a bad decision that cost him his life, But he was only 16. I’m pretty sure we’ve all done something that could cost us our lives at the age of 16. He was not a bad kid. He was just a child trying to be a teenage,” said Haggins’ mother Candace Talbott.’”
I don’t know when I have seen the Black mother of one of these “poor innocent victims” who had the same last name as the deceased. Looks to me as though these women drop their drawers for any man who stops by. Oh well, a friend who works for the DMV said she saw the title on a Cadillac that had 32 “owners.” I guess you get the car for a week once every year whether you need it or not.

I think that's a big difference between the white and black communities. Sure white kids from good families commit horrible, violent crimes. It happens all the time. The difference is that you don't tend to see excuses being made.
As the father of two sons, I'd like to think that if this were one of my boys who got killed trying to rob someone, I'd grieve privately and in public, I'd apologize for his actions.
Apparently so.
they stop being kids when they start using guns to commit crimes..
The North Face cap, Polo shirt.....sounds like he was a real hard worker/s
LOL!
The website, Stuff That Black People Don’t Like posted this which I have excerpted. Most of it was quoting WHIO.com who apparently have revised their original story.
All Together Now: “He [Isiah Haggins] Was a Good Boy”
. . . WHIO.com [New details from coroner on teen shot during robbery, WHIO.com, 7-2-14]:
“I want answers,” said Isiah Haggins Sr., father of Isiah Haggins Jr. “And I want the truth.”
Haggins’ grandmother, Kay Haggins, wants to see Step-N-Style’s surveillance video as proof that her grandson posed a threat to the store owner.
“I want to know what happened, where he was shot?” she said. “Was it self-defense? Because it’s their word and he’s not here to speak for himself. We don’t know. We are just going by what (the store owner) said. I just want to know how my grandchild died.”
. . .
Haggins’ family said he had been in some troubles in the past — he’d been expelled from Trotwood-Madison High School because of bad grades, behavior problems and for shoplifting — . . .
“Just because he had dreds and tattoos, that doesn’t mean he was a thug,” she said. “He wasn’t. He was a home baby. He loved to be home. I don’t know what happened to make him go down that road. It’s not him.”
. . . the elder Haggins said. “He wanted to go shopping, so he was going to call me back. He never called me back.”
This story was posted at 11:21 a.m. yesterday, but excised to take away the hilarious quotes from the family.
Your son never called you back, Mr. Haggins, because he was attempting to rob a hip-hop store with a gun.
But...
“He was a good boy,” after all.

Also not this discalimer at the top of the website.
This website will serve to educate the general public on Black people and the Stuff That Black People Don’t Like. Black people have many interesting eccentricities, which include disliking a litany of everyday events, places, household objects and other aspects of their everyday life. Black people are an interesting subject matter and this website will chronicle the many problems in life that agitate this group of people.
Another Tyrone son of 0bama????? Maybe he should have showed his ID so he wouldn’t have been shot. Oh, forgot. Dems say you don’t need no steekin’ ID.
He was living with his father and his mother lives in Florida.
Yeah he was just a kid trying to be a teenager. All my teenaged sons aspired to be armed robbers/potential killers....didn’t yours????
The people in his life seemed to recognize that his friends weren’t a good influence. Try telling a 16 year old to get different friends.
I know. He was NOT a young child either
I completely see them justifying his actions
Another of hussein’s sons.
16 and tattooed? Jeez, my kids are so hated....they don’t have tattoos. If they ever get one, they better have a house, I won’t pay for it.
We aren’t dealing with gangsta’s, or thugs, or a bunch of bad apples. We are dealing with an entire people with a culture of habits, values, and morals completely different than our own. They are a borderless nation within ours. A foreign, alien people incompatible, hostile, and mortally dangerous to the rest of society.
Suicide is the fourth category
Unfortunately, “fatal mistakes” are limited to one per perp!
