It's not the Fox news that you're thinking about. It's a local FOX news station, and not the national right leaning news station obviously...

The person being evicted was a family member of theirs which is why they were pissed off.

So pissed off = beating a man with a baseball bat? Premeditated, no less. Sounds pretty thuggish.

I would have shot the man and then ran away. My instincts tell me not to shoot/kill sweet looking 17 year old girls.
So you are basing your entire argument on how a person looks??? Let me get this straight...if a sweet looking teenage girls is standing over you beating the crap out of you with a baseball bat you should just let her because she "looks sweet"??? Sorry but I don't give a s*** what somebody looks like, if they are trying to kill me I'm going to defend myself any way I can, 17 year old "sweet looking" female or not. That's just stupid.

this case doesn't seem as cut and dry as the maintenance man's story. good thing there's a video. I will reserve further judgment until more facts come out.

It's interesting reading all the conclusive statements that are being made based on a story with minimal facts. The reporter didn't interview the maintenance man or the third person the may have assaulted him. The bottom portion of the report is based on comments from a friend of the maintenance man that appears not to have been present.

At this point the only things you can truly say, it that either the police know more about what happen than the reporter or that more investigation work needs to be done. Say anything more than that is just showing your own personal basis.

Was she holding one of her TWO babies when she was shot? You are being played by her family.

A equal or greater force may be used in self defense.

You try to paint a picture of sweet young lady but at that moment, to the worker doing his job, I guarantee she was not a "sweet young lady" she may have been like the other two attacking a worker in a gang like assault. She may very well be an innocent victim we don't know.

As one person states in the video "Everyone makes bad decisions in their life. Things don't go as planned. I wish the outcome could of been better".

Until the evidence is revealed via the actual taped evidence, maybe we should refrain from passing judgment on any in this unfortunate incident, as we really don't know what happened except three people were involved in an altercation with worker and two people are now dead.

Why are people so pissed off here? No one is defending the two attackers.
