Tyshawn Lee: Child's alleyway 'execution' shocks US.

"Tyshawn Lee was lured from a park into an alley and shot several times in a crime that police are calling "unfathomable". "

"When police said that a nine-year-old boy was "executed" in Chicago because of his father's gang affiliations, it provoked widespread revulsion."
But no nation wide placard waving, street protests, house burning, looting or the "could have been my son" statements?
Or perhaps we did not get that "Ferguson Unrest" like news over here?

Two marshals in the US state of Louisiana are to be charged with murder after the fatal shooting of a six-year-old boy.
Officers Norris Greenhouse and Derrick Stafford
Burning and looting is on for tonight then?
The second is breaking big this morning. I am no longer surprised.
Neither one of those boys deserved to die like they did. My :angel2::angel2: for their families.
Supposedly Gang Bangers shot one and stupid cops (local Marshals) the other, either way their young lives were taken away.

The whole thing falls on the boy's hoodlum/thug father.
I saw him on TV saying he wasn't involved with gangs???????????????????

This very same government disarms its own citizens, at every opportunity, when they are being preyed upon by neighborhood terrorists. Chicago has rigid gun control laws, already, so their normal response of making even more gun control laws against law-abiding citizens does nothing but send more sheep to the slaughter, and they have been doing this for decades. Those who apparently still trust that government to protect them are still being slaughtered in increasing numbers.
It makes a great case for vigilante-ism. Any adult citizen in Chicago without a criminal record should be encouraged to have a gun and be offered the training to use it wisely. A government that refuses to trust its law-abiding citizens does so because it fears anything that empowers them to exist without a government leash around their neck.

This doesn't surprise me one bit--nor shock me. If the population at large wasn't kept in the dark about true criminal behavior it wouldn't surprise anyone else either.
That article tells me nothing. I want to see the camera footage.
Marshals are federal government fools. I'm curious to know how this went down, too.

No, it comes down on the shooter. Even if the father is a mass murdering Nazi date raping scumbag, there is no reason to shoot his kid. None

:that:
The kid should not have to pay for the sins of the father, ever.

I didn't say the kid should have been killed for any reason, I was just pointing out why. The old man's gang ties.
Fox says he is indeed a Gang Banger, he denied that earlier in an interview.

I both agree and disagree. It seems logical that folks would have to hold their representatives accountable for their decisions/actions, but how can folks that are not responsible enough to avoid having children before graduating high school even think about holding anybody else responsible for anything? I agree that folks make mistakes, and that they shouldn't have to 'pay' for those mistakes forever, but many these days think that others have to pay for those mistakes. Responsibility is not a word that's known widely any more.
This isn't a 'black' thing, it's a society thing...and I think it's getting worse, not better.

Sometimes peoples concept of failure or success defies logic. Think of Marion Barry, the former mayor of our nations capital. He get video taped by the FBI smoking crack and still denies it, gets convicted, spends six months in a federal prison, and then gets elected to the district council, and eventually gets elected as mayor of our nations capital again. If he hadn't died, he'd probably still be mayor.
^This^
The people have to clean up their neighborhoods themselves, or loudly support their police's efforts to do it...and assist investigations and testify in court against the low-lifes. Tough to do, but it's the only way to reverse the downward spiral.
That whole fiasco with Count Crackula is a perfect example of the kind of mindset that keeps me from talking to some of my relatives. We need a facepalm smiley.
