Police: Australian Player Killed by 'Bored' Teens (No Mention of Race of Perps)
ABC News ^ | 08/20/2013 | Sean Murphy/AP

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

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, the chief said.

No mention of race of perps. Hmm, probably those pesky Amish again.

I have no problem with the death penalty for each one of these animals.

Put them down without mercy.

Unless three guys were holding one gun, I imagine two were along for the ride.

Ah,so it was a "rainbow coalition" of worthless,sociopathic punks!

Am I allowed to call a fellow cracker "worthless","sociopathic" or "punk"?

Our system allows for equal guilt (and consequences) for ... “riders”

And some among us can’t understand why many of childbearing age don’t want to bring children into this sick, dying society. A similar killing happened a few years ago in Williamsburg. Early one morning some punkasses drove up from another town and started shooting at whomever was available. They shot dead a young single dad bicycling his way home from work. The perps were caught and when interrogated said they killed him “for something to do.”

That is no solution. The point is to bring children into this society and to raise them to love honor and truth, to know the right thing and to do it. We need to raise the moral tone of our society, stop the handouts that are corrupting and perverting our way of life not pull back our skirts lest we come in contact with something vile. If one is too lazy and to effete to get into the fray by all means don’t reproduce. Its a form of culling the herd.

“And some among us can’t understand why many of childbearing age don’t want to bring children into this sick, dying society.”

There have always been malcontents and sociopaths. Yes, our society has its problems, but the solution is not defeatism. You might want to avoid the ever-pervasive news if it gets you down.

Optimism and a determination to make America great again are what’s needed now. A recent poll found 29% of American registered voters “think a revolution might be necessary in the near future to protect their freedoms”. That’s pretty amazing.

“for something to do.”

Just curious --

Does the motive “for something to do” qualify for first degree premeditated murder?

So it was 3 blacks; imagine that. Where is Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson. More overwhelming evidence that blacks are more likely to commit violent crimes.

Very strange. The US press has been saying it was two blacks and one white kid. If those are actual photos of the killers, then the US press is lying. One of the killers is lighter skinned than the others, but by no stretch of the imagination is he primarily “Caucasian.”
