I'd have given him a medal for removing a public menace. Technically, maybe he should not have done it. In truth, he did the community a huge favor by eliminating this piece of sh*t from society.

It doesn't call out if the robber was armed. I suspect he was but the lib media wouldn't say.
The sentence was too harsh.

OK, let's hear from the libs who will say "But it was *just* a child!"


How typical of the NeoConfused, you don't know the facts so just take a cheap shot anyway

Would you also have us believe the jury in OKLAHOMA was a liberal one? The sentence was after all that recommended by the jury.

How about when the cops unload a few magazines of bullets into a guy?

50 Shots Fired, and the Experts Offer a Theory - New York Times

They get a free pass, the 'fog of war' clouding their judgment as it were (I don't necessarily disagree). But the common man can't even defend himself.

Black people...do well by your kids and give them names that society respects. Seriously.

As to the OP, let the Doc go. Society is a better place without "Antwun."
Do black people a favor and don't tell us what type of names to give our children. And be a real American and respect whatever types of names you come across, instead of discriminating against people because of your perception of what their names look or sound like.

Yeah those libs in Oklahoma convicted him. Apparently those libs in Oklahoma felt that after this unarmed teenager was shot the Pharmacist shouldn't have gone and gotten another gun and pumped five more rounds into him while he was lying on the floor unconcious. That'll teach him to commit a crime in Libland Oklahoma

It's not your job or place to say that. Unless your name is God, and I seriously doubt it is, you can't determine who lives or who dies.

No liberal bias about emptying another clip into someone (who is already down) being the real issue here.

Please remember I am one of the very leftist liberals around here and I think this sentence was totally unjustified. It was not a cold blooded premeditated murder. It was a killing done in a rage. Rage can eliminate anything but the overwhelming need to kill the thing or person that triggered the rage.

I really wonder if the pharmacist was sane when he went to get another gun. I think, if he has a decent attorney, this might be grounds for an appeal.
