In response, 37-year-old Christopher Lawrence Cox, pulled the backpack away from the victim, unzipped it, pulled a Colt .45 1911 handgun from the bag, cocked it and “unloaded,” investigators wrote in an arrest affidavit.

Ok, why were 2 14 year olds out and about at 1:30 am?
ReplyDeleteI wonder if race entered into it.....oh well, somebody fucked around and found out, huh....
ReplyDelete14 yo utes play silly games win silly prizes
ReplyDeleteThe relevant question being what color were the "two yutes" and did they have prior records for purse snatching and strong arm theft. I suspect they did.
ReplyDeletePossibly, 14 is pretty young but if they are black then it's probable there is at least one prior offense. Genetic disposition aside, part of what feeds this re-offending problem is that consequences are never handed down the first and second times in regards to PoC, they get a pass because punishment and correction is politically incorrect.

Like Granma used to say,” nothing good happens after midnite.”
ReplyDelete"victim"
ReplyDeleteOne of them was from Kentucky. He was a bit of a ways from home wasn't he? 14 years old and out at 0130, and yeah probably a negro. Clearly self defense.
ReplyDelete2A fair use. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
ReplyDeleteOne of the little fuckers got exactly what he deserved...the other has something to think about for the rest of his life.
ReplyDeleteMud or not, being a little shit up to no good or not, 14 is too young. By all means defend yourself if necessary and keep your heat away from would-be thieves but I don't see two punks putting up a fight after some brandishing, much less after the first shot.
ReplyDeleteHe had enough time to unzip his backpack, navigate the contents, and get his pistol, rack the slide, then mag dump; there better be some incredible evidence before I accept self-defense. Trying to steal a bad doesn't warrant death, it does warrant getting backhanded like a bitch and promptly disciplined and there was a time when it was perfectly acceptable for random strangers to that to out-of-line teenagers.
The remaining kid is probably going to be need years of counseling due to having his friend killed in front of him and may develop a lifetime of hatred if that counseling fails. Especially if it's the usual late night mischief and dumb ideas teenagers are getting into.
This is a job for CPS, to get the remaining punk pulled from whatever garbage family hes with and try to get him on a better path. Being trigger happy like this is how people create their own monsters.
With what evidence is public, Mr.Cox warrants every charge thrown at him. He even stated he acted out of rage rather than self-defense. For the people here saying they deserved it, check your moral compass because its definitely broken.
I roamed around all the time at 12PM, 2AM in Hawaii, it's some of the only time I could get when it was quiet and not constant noise and chaos. Although Two kids have no business being out that late. Where are the parents? Again, job for CPS since the parents aren't doing theirs.

Don't give a shit about age or race of people that pull this shit. To bad he did not take out both of them.
