Another thread about this says the kid walked into the house. If that is true, and the old guy shot him in his house, that would make the old man justified.

I wonder which story is true?

Three hots and a cot. Probably about the same as Shady Manor for old farts.

Exactly - he is the Commander in Chief you know!

I wonder - in our idiot state (Washington) they are trying to make a law to make the gun manufacturers responsible for the murders. It would seem that then it would also be okay to sue Biden for following his advice. I would think an even lower threshold for Biden. Public statement inciting murder.

Just observing that they are painting him almost as a martyr.

The guy was just charged for the shooting, so we’ll see.

Guess math is starting to creep in-—you cannot get an address correct.

Well, here we go. Not only is this guy a racist...but the entire neighborhood is racist. The perfect example of "systemic" racism.

Merritt said the neighborhood where the shooting occurred is predominantly white and conservative and "commonly referred to among locals as God's country."

"We've heard reports from Black people who live in the neighborhood, who visit the neighborhood, that there seems to be a standing hostility towards Black presence in that community," he said.

Yeah, in one area of his life. In another area of his life, he is an astrophysicist who went to top universities.

Sure, he may be an idiot when it comes to politics, which is, for what it’s worth, one of my top subjects, but I am a complete moron when it comes to astrophysics!

Good to hear this.

The old man won’t be prosecuted for murder...only attempted murder.
Many oldsters, men and women, need to have their guns and drivers licenses taken away when they show signs of delusion and paranoia and dementia.

Alzheimer’s and Lewy Body Disease are increasing at a rapid rate in our country.

Nobody should be acting like this kid asked for it.

Never thought or stated that.

Agreed with the 'idiot author' comment, however.

I wasn’t really speaking about you. I just felt that this article was meant to take this sad thing that happened and inflame and polarize them into hating one or both sides when we really weren’t sure what happened. It is always about nudging each thing to use politically. Hell with the truth. Someone has to be the demon.

I still don’t think either party here was a bad person. Just unfortunate.
