[Mr Ramsbotham]

Whoops, in the previous post it should be the former, not the latter.

[Wolfie]

Have to admit, I didn’t see that one coming. I figured it would be the “that’ll teach ‘em” crowd vs. those who might say it’s bit of an over-reaction.

Never bring an egg to a gunfight.

“What color?”

Hmmmm

“The Fulton County Medical Examiner’s office says the teen, Tivarus King, died as he was being taken to Grady Memorial Hospital.”

Btw, the DRIVER has not been charged, yet.

“She says the suspect is being questioned by homicide investigators but has not yet been charged.”

The Mercedes driver is a hero.

When I was a teen in the 80s, some jack-asses egged my car. I had a 1966 Nova SS with custom paint. My dad and I put over 100 hours in color sanding and buffing the paint after we got it back from the paint shop.

So we had more personally invested in it than an average owner.

Did I want revenge? Yes. Did I want someone dead? Not in the least.

[popdonnelly]

Since the teen posed no threat, it’s homicide.

What Color ?

Midnight Blue with leather accents and Wi-fi included

What Color ?

The Mercedes was a metallic blue.

Why do you ask?

Great observation.

I am sure all of the Journolists/race hustlers/Duke Professors/Olbermann/Maddow/Andrea Kremer-types has a collective “darn” moment when the Mercedes driver most likely was black.

They had a national Jesse/Al march moment with a rich white (profession) who kills an innocent “youth” who egged his Greedy Capitalist Mercedes (German-made = Nazi reference) and then was killed for being a “prankster”.

I feel horrible for the family of this kid, it is a tragedy, but the Liberal Media obviously buries this as a “dog bites man” story that just missed the “victim” narrative.

I loathe the Leftist, lying, slanted media.

The mercedes was a GOLD color.

I wonder what color the driver of the mercedes was.

Good thing I did not have a gun with me when a teenager threw rock at my passing car. But I would never shoot to kill, just to scare the shyt out of him so he won’t do it again.

When I was a teen in the 80s, some jack-asses egged my car.

Clearly we need stricter egg control laws.

I conclude that Mr. King was a person of diversity. But I also conclude that the shooter was a person of diversity

The living and the dead.. as persons go, you can't get any more diverse then that

“Jones says officers dispatched to the scene in northwest Atlanta spotted a gold Mercedes driving by and detained the driver. She says the suspect is being questioned by homicide investigators but has not yet been charged.”

If this is black on black crime ... I can see where there might be a problem ... . It’s not supposed to be that way.

[Pharmboy]

I have had my car egged on Halloween. I was REALLY REALLY mad, but I never saw the little darlings. My instinct would have been to grab my gun, but I would have chilled.

But getting dried egg off your car is not easy...

[Liberty Valance]

And thats how happy halloween turned into the day of the dead the very next day.
Trick or treat!?!

[SnakeDoctor]

Extremely excessive force ... the kid egged a car and was running away. Enjoy your prison sentence.

Would have been a lot cheaper just to go to the car wash! Now Tavarus won’t get to go to Harvard!!!

Evidently you’ve never heard of assault with an ovarian weapon!!
