[Ritzy Sharon]

just saw this on facebook.

they let the man go cause it's a mexican that got killed. if he shot a white man the case would've been handled differently,

 

[Benjamin Sisko]

It would've been different if this was a black man who killed this man in cold blood.

This is why I will always look from a black perspective. Just think Would I would have been acquitted by a "jury of my peers" if I killed this man in revenge??

The majority of people leave it to the law because they're not there when their family members get mowed down, nearly everyone in this country would have the same reaction he had if they were there at the time their children were killed by a drunk driver. When people are around to defend their children the outcome is usually assault, attempted murder or murder.

All of this could have been avoided had this dude not been driving drunk, 3 people would still be alive. I'd want that man acquitted even if he was caught with the gun in his hand, just like I'm glad the dude that beat the pedo to death didn't get charged.

yeah.. I don't understand how anyone is iffy about the outcome of this case.. How is a drunk driver any different than if a sober man had stood there and shot your two children? You drive drunk, you hit someones children and murder them, there are consequences. I don't have kids, but if I was pushing my dad's car that broke down and I see him get hit and killed by a drunk driver, best believe I'm going to do my best to hunt the man down.

And




Natural reaction to put someone in the dirt for harming your child.

I know its besides the point but the execution of that shooting was flawless

 

[NkrumahWasRight Is Wrong]

only possible problem with this is the use of this ruling as precedent in other cases. the action in and of itself i probably lean slightly against but mostly neutral.

either way, seemed like a lot of evidence to not even confirm he was the shooter so the court made the right decision. even if there was evidence, i could see the defendant getting off on temporary insanity so

5 years probation? premeditated murder and they call it.... manslaughter?

Just to remind brehs:

No weapon, 50 bullets, all 3 coppers got free.

Horrible story all around.

- Car ran out of gas so dad and two sons push it down the street (they were close to home)
- Drunk driver plowed into them killing his two young kids
- "Allegedly" the dad ran to his house, grabbed a gun, and killed the drunk driver
- Texas court acquitted him on murder charges

I'm still up in the air about this. Its a terrible thing to have your kids die in front of you never mind to a drunk driver. I can't say I blame him. Theres a good chance I would do the same thing he did.

On the other side, is vigilante justice. He took the law into his own hands and most likely did shoot and kill that driver. I know its Texas and they do things differently down there, but I don't know if I can get on board with that. He should have let these dudes rot in a prison cell for 20+.

Mexican on mexican crime, now if the victim was white

 

[southpawstyle]

If I saw my kids limbs flying and shyt and some dude stumbles out of the car visibly impaired I don't think I would be able to call the police and hope they sort it out. Street Justice.

I've been doing that lately, the world looks so different.

The court made their decision

On a semi related note, can't wait till automated cars come out and serial drunk drivers are forced to use them.
