Jesse & Al don’t give a damn about this little girl’s murder, and that’s a fact.

and they are 16, 18 and 19. I just don’t get it how little human life is valued by these people, white, black or purple.

I see them doing some serious hard time at a Juvenile facility until they’re 21...unless they can run a sub-4.5 second 40. Then, they’ll just be “young children who made a mistake” and sign with Miami or Florida State.

Times may be different and all that, but I say screw that, the child should come first and not be left alone. I’m not blaming the parents instead of the teenage thugs, I just would never leave a 12 year old home alone, not old enough in my book. No matter her age the same thing would have happened of course, but a parent/grandparent there may have made all the difference.

oh, I know, just had to send them my emails. I ended my email with “I didn’t think so”, my answer to my question of would they be marching in Vass.

I am just disgusted with all these murders of our children, each one never stops the next murderer and I just can’t fathom it any more.

Sorry, I've just been reading football message boards where the fans of schools tell us we shouldn't criticize those "18-21 year old children" (after all they're only kids).

I think Oklahoma State football Coach GUmby's rant was the icing on the cake. If those three hoods could bench over 500 lbs, or run a sub-4.5 40, he and a bunch of other coaches would sign them in a heartbeat. And the fans of those schools would all say "give those kids a chance. They made a mistake."

Funny how collegiate sports makes the most conservative person a blubbering, rubber-backed, limp-wristed, latte-sippin', flag-burning, pot-smokin' leftist.

I stayed home all summer long with just my 14-year-old sister when I was 12. There’s not much of an option when both your parents have to work and your nearest relative is a state away. Back then, home invasions were unheard of. But, I’m not sure anything could be different if I was 12 in 2007 instead of 1985.

My daughter moved to the woods in PA as she calls it. We insisted they get a home alarm system. In this day and age no where is safe any more, pitiful and scarey moreso, but true.

I’m also anti-working mothers I guess having not been one myself, part of the decay of society I think, that and when they dropped the dress codes in school. My mother was home when I came home from school, before the surge of working mothers started.

Yes, I’ve noticed in the police blotter in my paper, they seem to pick and choose when to title a criminal act done by a teenager or an adult when they are always of age.

Poor kid. Staying home with strep throat and she is killed because three punks want to do a B&E and rob the joint. My question is why weren’t there any adults in the house?

Hmmm...

Because three punks wanted to rob a joint?

They didn't just enter that home to rob it. They entered that home to do anything they pleased. They voluntarily went far beyond robbing here friend. Intentionally or not, these guys made the front page. They should be offered to briefly say a prayer before being executed.

Do you think that maybe they had to go out for something for her illness? Maybe their employers would not let them off work on short notice. Please, do a mile in their shoes before castigating and implying some sort of fault on their part. Woulda-shoulda-coulda.

I am not advocating this, but I predict that one day there will be marches like the Jena 6 march.

Only there will be many thousands of white people in those marches. Oh... they will not be marching for the rights of blacks to murder, rape and beat whites, they will march for the elimination of those who do.

I will join them. Did anyone see the racial beating on FOX news? 5 to 7 black kids beating up on white kid. There was laughter in the background.

It’s really past time to put an end to it.

She was 12, she didn’t need any adults

They were probably at work

I do not think age has anything to do with this shooting, they would have probably shot anyone in the home. They did not expect anyone to be there. On the other hand, for them to shoot a 12 year old, who was not any threat to them, is despicable!

The thug culture that breeds these monsters needs as big a slap-down as the thugs themselves. I mean a biblical scale bitch-slap. Seriously.

Well admittedly I was and still am a Nervous Nelly of a mom, and I don’t want to blame the poor parents, but I wouldn’t have left my child alone at home in a secluded area. However, if both parents worked and there was no one(friend, relative etc.) to stay with her, maybe it seemed to them that there was no choice. Poor family.

My heart goes out to her parents. There is no way society can repay this no matter what happens to the “perps”.

I suppose the “reverend” jackson (and his usual adoring chorus of simpletons) will be leading a mass march in her hometown demanding “justice” in this race bias case. I also suppose CNN will headline the next seven days with news about the racial (black thugs on a white child violence) aspects of this case — don’t bet five cents on either.
