Nothing wrong with the Tweet, it's a accurate description, a drunk girl(nothing wrong with that) showed up on his porch and he killed her in cold blood.

They could have been more tasteful yea and said her name but I don't think it would have gotten as much attention

So she definitely deserved to die right! :rolleyes:
Yep. But not with a shotgun. I hate people who drink and drive. People who do drugs and drive. Pretty much anyone who thinks its a thrill to impair their senses and up the ante by trying to harm others.

Reminds me of Katrina when blacks were "looting" food in New Orleans, while white folks "found" it:mjpls:

:snoop: The way I see it this is quite different from the Katrina situation

I can see why the mentioning of her drunken state does slightly lean sympathy towards the killer but I feel the newspaper is within their rights to print the plain face facts without being called racist.
Calling looting "finding" is not printing the plain face facts, especially when you are willing to call it looting when the perpetrator is a black person (and not to mention that in the context of katrina, a local disaster, people should not be expected to give up their right to survival over manufactured rules of civility; THAT news outfit deserved every bit of derision they got, not this one here.

I'm still waiting for an explanation by @Hiphoplives4eva as to how that AP tweet is racist. It doesn't even allude to their ages, let alone racial makeup
