People trying to excuse these dumb brats - they had already fired a shot. They would likely have killed someone - intentionally or by accident - even if the folks they were trying to rob had complied and started handing over their stuff.
“I fired a warning shot at the guy who had already shot at me and then waited patiently to see what he and his companions would do next. They seemed to mill about in confusion, so I said, ‘Now see here, fellow! If you don’t hie yourself from here immediately, I may not shoot into the air next time!’ That did the trick! They all started crying, the shooter threw down his gun, and they apologized. They’re good lads at heart. They’ve just been smoking that crack cocaine again! Ha!”
Your thug children attempted an armed house invasion and robbery on the wrong house.
Stupid is as stupid does.
“That’s not how it’s supposed to go,” a young man in the group complained. “I understand one shot to stop the people, the victims or whatever — but aggressively to shoot these little teens, that’s, that’s overkill. That’s too much to handle,”
They were “tried as adults.”
The whole sorry affair could have been easily avoided.
Hat trick ! Life of crime leads to dead end !
“..As soon as they picked up an adult weapon and committed and adult life-threatening crime they became valid adult targets...”
^THIS^
Regardless of color, race, etc., whoever does this becomes eligible for a valid, lethal self-defense response. Whether an old homeowner can barely pick up/aim his weapon, or they’re a young, handgun competition champion....doesn’t matter. That’s the risk the criminals take. “Well, do ya feel lucky, punk? Do ya?”
Convicted and Sentence carried out.
Precisely the attitude that many people take.
Note the trend. You are more and more likely to be confronted by not one, but multiple attackers/invaders. Be prepared for that.
Dey be playin. Wiff toy guns. En got no real bullets. So yah won’t even die when you be shot, k?
Well they were following cdc guidelines by wearing masks. Now they’ve gotten their shots. Prayers up for the homeowner that was placed in this position.
Hie thee to a gunnery!
Mid night basketball bored them.
“These little teens......”
No words.
And likely we’ll never hear about this again.
From the article:
“Police do not believe race was a factor since the homeowner was also a person of color. “He’s a nice, caring dude,” neighbor Asteria Williams said, seemingly vouching for the homeowner’s character. “If they would’ve knocked on his door and asked for anything, he would’ve gave to them. He’s a nice dude,” she added. But, the family members of the teens who were killed had questions.”
As usual, the pictures confirm what we already knew.
Brilliant!
Police do not believe race was a factor since the homeowner was also a person of color.
Actually, racism had nothing to do with it, but race had everything to do with it. If we're going to have an honest discussion on race, as the Left always demands, this needs to be acknowledged every time.
