White boy kills two people and its self defense

So a white kid shoots three people, kills two of them, gets thanks by the police,
is allowed to walk down the road, is put nicely into a police car, and fox news
backs him more than they back George Zimmerman.

Im guessing the NRA will be paying his legal bills.

Meanwhile a black man gets shot seven times in the back and may or may not had
a wee pocket knife on him or in his car.

Just when you think Faux News cant get much lower, who do you think they're giving
sympathy too????

Go on have a guess.

The answer wont surprise you.

2. It'd be one thing ... at least SOMEWHAT defensible if this kid was a resident of the neighborhood

I wouldn't defend what he did but I could at least countenance an argument to the effect that it was 'self defense'.

When you drive in from out-of-state, armed with an AR, and take it upon yourself to 'defend' someone else's neighborhood ... hell someone else's freakin' STATE?

GIVE ME A FUCKING BREAK with that shit.

I'd never defend Zimmerman either but at least he an extremely tiny semblance of an excuse since he lived in the neighborhood. This kid drove in to find an excuse to shoot somebody.

will sue the news networks for wrecking his pathetic reputation. Sure looks to me that he went there to kill people.

5. If a RW gets scared and starts shooting, it's self defense

If you try to defend yourself from an obvious gun wielding lunatic, it's called an attack. That's RW spin. It's the same spin every fucking time this happens. I'm tired of the game.
