Too bad white folks don't have an Al Sharpton like charlatan to gin them up and demand justice. We could have two media spectacles running concurrently!

I may be wrong, but here the other burglars would be charged with the death.
First, your mother sounds a lot like mine, and they are both right.

How would they be charged?

Seems America is on a kind of mindless auto-pilot. They actually think if a person is seen as being "BAD"..That a gun can be legally used to rid the world of bad people...kind of like being a judge and executioner all in one...BUT- in the mean time they are not qualified to take such a position of harsh authority..It reminds me of domestic violence...a woman can simply say she fears for her life- and off goes the husband to jail........

A shooter can say the same thing and it works every time...These shooters probably told the cops..."We thought that we saw an object in their hands...and we thought they might come back and kill us..so we shot them"----------case closed...
That's because the shooter is innocent until proven guilty, and if the dead person is somewhere they weren't supposed to be... Well, not a whole lot the D.A is going to be able to do with that...

Gee, what if we found out that the fishermen were black? Would it change some people's viewpoint on both sides?

Something I would love to know is why the hell was she running around with three boys at 4am? Why didn't her parents do anything about it? My parents would wring my neck, and I would never see the light of day again.

Well the story develops..one of the "teens" had a weapon. The 3 are being charged as adults with first degree burglary now.


Summer Moody case: Three teens involved in Gravine Island shooting charged as adults (Video) | al.com
Scott Tipton Byrd and Dillon Wade Tyree, both of Stapleton, and Daniel Parnell of Bay Minette were booked into the Baldwin County Corrections Center late Tuesday afternoon, according to authorities, after the investigation indicated they had a weapon when the alleged burglaries on Gravine occurred. The three had initially been charged as juveniles with a lesser offense. A person accused of carrying a weapon during a burglary can be charged with first-degree burglary, a crime with a maximum penalty of life in prison.

His property, they had no right to break in, it would have never happened if they hadn't broke the law, they alone are responsible for their stupidity. he should sue them for putting him in that situation.

Not surprising. Leftists invariably begin blithering about rush and/or Glenn beck and/or fox news when they feel threatened.
Which is more often than not.

It's not a tragedy, it's justice.

The real stupid person here.

How stupid must you be to blindly shoot at people running away from you in the dark with a rifle and then claim it was a warning shot? Not on your property, not threatening your life?

Far and away a stupid moron compared to a high school girl out on a juvenile petty crime spree likely instigated by some boys. This could have been anyone's daughter.

In most other kinder nations the only one looking at prison time here would be this moron that decided he was going to be judge, jury, and executioner
