death by firing squad.

Sure, we might be able to reform this kid but the 5 kids of this victim can't get their father back. his death is only the beginning of their troubles considering it's very likely he was working here and sending money back home to Ghana. Who's gonna step in and fill those shoes?
I was thinking about this. It’s crazy how private prisons get the proceeds from prison labor. When situations like these happen, the killer should either be executed or forced to work and the proceeds given to the family of the victim.

I dont like being the "they are making all of us look bad" type of guy but these boneheaded kids are making things awkward for us law abiding folks that use these services regularly.
A criminal is a criminal. This could happen to anybody anywhere. People get killed in movies theaters, schools, concerts, clubs, grocery stores, even church. This isn’t any different.

the article mentions ride-hailing drivers being car-jacked in the area, so it could be a failed car-jacking.
I was thinking the same thing. This is like the man who was killed recently in DC by two teenage girls while trying to steal his car. It seems like foreign people don’t understand how savage this young generation is.

The killer's parents should have their paychecks docked 20% until the five kids reach 18. :manny:

I don't understand why kids don't understand technology since most of them have been using cell phones since they were toddlers. The same app that you called the Lyft/Uber on, is installed on your phone which the police can track if they send a subpoena to those companies requesting your account info. The same credit/debit card that you are using to pay for those rides can also be tracked. The youth are lost, smh

While this is absolutely tragic and it's sick what this young brother did, I'm always amazed by how punitive some of you are. Death by firing squad? Executed? LWOP? Yall are really advocating for the death and torture of another black man, hell, legally not even an adult, in the hands of the criminal justice system? :dahell:
Even the supreme court came to the conclusion that we shouldn't be sentencing juveniles to death thanks to the work of people like Bryan Stevenson and others, and yet yall want to just harm more black men still? :dahell:That aint justice, and that won't make society any better :camby:
shyt is highkey :mjpls:

If you murder someone in a fashion like this, the only just response is for you to forfeit your life.

So other countries being extreme means we should too? :dahell:
No one said free the guy, I'm saying don't murder a kid for something he did at the age of 17. That's so senseless. Prison? Sure. Rehabilitation? Yes please. Responding to murder with murder is the most dumbass shyt, ol Hammurabi's Code head ass :mjlol:

Life without parole is very fair.

A life for a life...no less than 30years is a disappointment.

I will never understand how people don't think of the consequences of their actions. Like you know you go to prison for life if you kill someone or get executed. Now what is worth risking that for? 20 dollars? An i-Phone? A gang? Like what do these folk think their lives are worth?

I assume they do not fear what you and the rest of functioning society fears because their outlook of life is extremely limited..

There's cameras and witnesses everywhere, you really cannot do crime in the open public day or night and get away with it anymore so people who attempt it are seriously disturbed.
