@rahiemshabazz The only tragedy here is that the innocent man served 3 years of jail time and the kid's parents aren't locked up for allowing the kid walk around with the loaded gun.
You're sympathizing with evil doer. People like you is killing America. In america, you are entitled to detain a person with probable cause of stealing until police is called. You can chase them for the same purpose to the vicinity of the store. It's called storekeepers' privilege. He violently resisted by showing and pointing the gun. By doing so, he put himself in deadly situation. The shop owners did absolutely nothing wrong.
I'm pretty sure he would be alive if he didn't walk around with a gun and try to shoplift. i'm not in favor of store owner chasing down shoplifters and shooting them, but I'm in favor that the store owners should be able to stop the shoplifters and get back their stuff instead of watching them leave with stolen goods with impunity.
@Christy_fromTO@MandiCandy99@meghanncuniff Really no need to aim the gun for self defense. Just a sight of the gun itself in certain intense hostile situation is enough to pull the trigger. Because if you allow him to aim it at you, it may be too late. it's a split second decision.
You see 14 yr kid walking around the town with gun, entering store trying to shoplift. Very dangerous recipe. In my opinion, the parents should be sent to jail over this. I fully agree that the store owner is found Not Guilty. It's a tragedy that ended on that store front but started in the boy's family culture.
Why would he run like a scared chicken if he didn't steal or did anything wrong? He didn't get killed because of stealing but for threatening the owner's son with gun. Why would a 14yr kid walk around the town with a gun? And Yes, trying to steal $4 can lead to death. This should be Very well educated to our young people. DON'T DO IT!
@ProudSocialist Lol you commies can be liberated from exploitation finally. So what's ur problem? You bitch about having to work you bitch about not having to work. Just pick one dumbass!
@Stephjd420@MorePerfectUS Worker wouldn't exist without the company. Company came first and workers came. Don't forget the order of matter. It's not the carriage that pushes the horse. It's the horses that pull the carriage. The problem is the government and politicians who waste hard earned taxes.
