This is why you can't even discuss things with the Left today when something overwhelmingly appears to be a racist incident against a black person...which is what they always claim to fight against.
They want you to go all in like the man has been plotting the demise of this specific kid since his birth 14 years ago and then fall in line with all their other talking points.
I'll say it again: at first glance knowing how I perceive kids today and not realizing at first he had no phone it struck me as odd that he didn't bring up Google maps.
I like that as a topic better than the actual incident. Dude was racist and acted foolishly with his gun. It's so clear there I'm not even sure why it should be discussed.
It's being discussed for it's reasons of merit.
The other stuff is being discussed because you, among others, introduced it. Deflecting with the typical pejorative "left demanding we go all in" is again being introduced by yourself as a fallacious argument to justify your illogical stance.

Now, obviously this young man won't get any sympathy around these parts, if anything the reckless shooting will be 'justified' in people's eyes here because of his race, and sympathize with the homeowners. Never mind this guy just started shooting without any provocation.
Uh, stuff like that happens. A route feels alot different on foot than from a moving vehicle.
Anyway, if you think that him getting lost was fishy, then you are part of the problem.
This is true.
Navigating streets in a vehicle, you see bigger reference points. Going on foot, you see the small signs that usually are a blur and other fine details often missed while driving or riding in a vehicle.
I still say Joe Biden endorsed this though. This is the America he wanted. Step out on the balcony and let off 2 blasts. With your double barreled shotgun. Scare them away.
While the kid did not actually get shot; it apparently wasn't for lack of the perp's trying and failing due to his ineptitude (thankfully he's probably stupid as well as racist) and poor judgement.
All of this questioning of the circumstances beyond the facts presented so far is just pap for the like-minded fear ridden who'd probably justify the whole incident as an "accident" or "misunderstanding" if not actually "deserved".
The sad thing is; this kid may have been brought up so far to believe in everyone's good intentions outweighing their bad. That's gonna be a hard sell now.
Stuff like this is frightening. I could only imagine how scared that kid was. It is going to be hard for him to see the good out there.
The perp is an idiot beyond all means. Anyone trying to defend the perp is just as bad.
It is like you sad. The kid didn't deserve to be shot. And no one can point to anything this kid actually did to deserve being shot. For that reason, some people are asking "why doesn't he know how to get to his own school", as if trying to probe for a reason to justify him getting shot at. I suspect some persons deep down wanted that kid to be shot, and have no empathy.
There is still racism, albeit not as bad as in the past, but it still exists. It's not just whites being prejudiced against blacks either. It is a two way street.
