An Australian baseball player out for a jog in an Oklahoma neighborhood was shot and killed last week by three "bored" teenagers who decided to kill someone for fun, police said.

PICTURES: Australian baseball player fatally shot in Okla.

Christopher Lane, who was visiting the town of Duncan where his girlfriend and her family live, had passed a home where the boys were staying and that apparently led to him being gunned down at random, Police Chief Danny Ford said Monday.

A 17-year-old in the group has given a detailed confession to police, but investigators haven't found the weapon used in last week's shooting, Ford said.

That teen and the others - ages 15 and 16 - remain in custody, and Ford said the district attorney is expected to file first-degree murder charges Tuesday. It wasn't known if the three will be charged as adults or juveniles. They are scheduled to appear in court Tuesday afternoon.

"They saw Christopher go by, and one of them said: 'There's our target,'" Ford said. "The boy who has talked to us said, 'We were bored and didn't have anything to do, so we decided to kill somebody.'"

Shep Smith just reported the story on FOX and made no mention that the killers are black.

Surprisingly, this photo of the vicious black punks is posted on NBC News:

The synthesis is always America or God’s fault. They are going to blame the vast right wing christian conspiracy. Watch the RINOs stepping up to the plate.

Duncan, Oklahoma. A town noted for Demons and Haliburton by the lefties.

I think that it was OK where the two Black kids tortured and murdered the old World War 2 Veteran and did something to his wife. I can't recall what it was so I am not going to speculate. Thy were arrested but as far as I know nothing has happened to them. It would not surprise me to learn that they were out running the streets again.

So don't expect too much from the law regarding justice and you won't be disappointed.

Hmmm. The same state where a hyphenated federal judge just ruled sharia trumps the will of the voters?

The MSM is all out on protecting criticizers of Obama as racists. This is the synthesis they stick with, and they will keep with it along with Hillary coming up with the sexism synthesis.

The CBS article did not even show pics of the thugs, Daily Mail did because it was a non US source.
You can’t commit a hate crime or be a racist if you’re black.

Along with my tag line I guess that you could add that some leftist will say women are sexist because only they can have babies. Give guys a chance too!!!

It’s difficult not to feel a breaking heart over the loss of this innocent and promising young life.

I don’t believe that the insanity is ever going to end.

>They should be flayed.

Nope. Strapped to a gurney and kept alive while their organs are donated to the needy. Keep them alive until all their useful organs are gone.

The Daily Mail is becoming a good source for US news.

CNN spent several minutes on this story, showing a pic of the dead kid, but never ONCE did they mention the racial motivation, or the race of the assailants.

In fact, by repeating “Small Oklahoma town”, several times, they leave the viewer with the impression that the killers are WHITE....
