[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of emotions but very little information so far.

Wtf. Why? The person reacted out of fear and shot this poor innocent kid! The perpetrator had choices. He could have NOT opened the door! When strangers knock on my door, I often don’t open it.

The LAST thing I would ever do, is pull out a gun and shoot them, for godsakes.  We know this child was innocent. And now his life has been taken. I hope the person who shot him rots in jail. [/quote]

[b]Maybe it'll transpire that the kid was dealing drugs and it was a deal that went south.

Who knows. There's very little information. More will come out in due time. Maybe the allegation is right. Or maybe there's a lot more to it than we are being told for now. There have been plenty of instances when something that initially seemed like a horrible tragedy turned out to be much murkier once more information was released.

That's why I reserve all judgement until more is known and don't resort to knee jerk emotional reaction. [/quote]

The shooter is in his 80s so, no, I don't think it was a "drug deal that went south."[/quote]Potential dementia[/quote]

80+ yr old white guy with a gun? I'm guessing he watches Fox 24-7, sees reports of the crimes in Chicago, DC, etc. being perpetrated by black youth and hence ALL black youth EVERYWHERE are out to loot Walmart - or loot his home. Doesn't have the critical thinking to realize that one guy alone ringing is doorbell isn't there to rob, he's more likely there to sell solar panels or something. And in any event if you're one of those people who doesn't open the door to people you don't know, couldn't yell thru the door to ask what the kid wanted/tell him he had the wrong address??[/quote]
