The antis are no doubt already tallying this as “three more children” killed by gun violence.

All aspiring rappers, too, no doubt. At least at 15 and 16 the chances of them having reproduced are lower, but in that community that’s an iffy bet.

He did a good job taking out the trash, for good.

I think it's quite clear what the teens were doing.

I'm just curious what the homeowner and the two others were doing.

It has occurred to me, and this seems the most likely scenario, that they were in the house asleep when this whole thing started and then to stop the teens from breaking in, they grabbed a gun and stormed out to confront them.

I'm having trouble picturing the three from the home standing there in the front yard at 4 a.m., with a gun, unless in fact, they were waiting for drugs. Which doesn't seem as likely a possible scenario.

I'm not sure what links you're getting info from. Where's it mentioned there was an AR-15? And how could you think "all witnesses were killed" but articles already linked in this thread say there were multiple adults in the front yard.

PS - I'm guessing you question the consistently stated fact the 3 deceased all had masks on, and were there to rob them?

Frankly, any day not Oct 31 that you step on someone else's property with a mask on, you're truly asking to get treated as if you have felonious criminal intent and shot.

how many drug deals you done, Finn?

how many of those drug deals did one of the groups involved not only have a weapon, but approach the deal wearing masks?

if it were 2 groups of felons, then this is the 2nd best possible outcome. 3 removed from committing further crimes, the other group will be tried and convicted of their felonies and do time.

Like someone mentioned, why were there three people standing on the driveway at 4AM with an AR-15? Were the kids delivering drugs to them? Something's off with this story.

This is what part of this online community is made up of unfortunately. The term internet ghetto comes to mind, where people low in compassion prey on those that have it.

Anyone with any compassion for dead minors is a bleeding heart.

And the fact that it's tolerated is confusing to me.

You have your opinion but always seem to demean everyone else's. The guys could have been on a 4-12 or 6 - 2 shift. They stop by at one guys house for a few beers and when the other two go to leave - they continue their conversations walking to their cars. My one who worked 4-12 and his friends did this all the time.

I think it is probably drug related but there are other scenerios and we'll just have to wait and see.

If this was in a blue state, the homeowner would be charged with murder and the dead burglars would be considered victims of gun violence.

I agree..I can remember working 12 hour shifts at a factory and getting home at 3 30 am. You have to wind down to be able to sleep. Besides, their yard, they can be there anytime they want.
