Crime Ralph Yarl shooting.

[nostradumbass]

So, according to you, old people don't get visitors at 10pm. What time should an old person be able to shoot someone on their porch, no questions asked. And what age is considered old?
If I'm 65, can I shoot someone on my porch after 10pm? What if I'm 70, does that mean I can shoot someone after 9pm? Does the time change the older that person gets?

So according to you, 84 year olds get a lot of late night visitors, or is this some conspiracy where he really invited the guy over to shoot him and everyone is lying to cover up the trap? Not sure what you're arguing, but we already know he wasn't expecting visitors and was already in bed, and nobody is even disputing that.

Not sure which case you're claiming is "no questions asked", but it isn't this one. This one he was taken into custody, questioned and later charged with felonies. so there were quite a lot of "questions asked", including of the neighbors who also said it was odd when he heard a car pull up to the elderly neighbor's house late at night.

A witness was interviewed who stated on April 13, 2023 at approximately 2150 hours they heard an unknown vehicle pull into the driveway of 1100 NE 115th St. The witness thought it was odd for their elderly neighbor to have a visitor this late at night. The witness stated a short time later they heard two to three gunshots from 1100 NE 115th St.

And here's the crime map of the neighborhood with 3 burglaries, about 20 assaults and about 20 thefts just in the last couple months within about half a mile of where this happened.

bingo. this is also backed up by at least a century of studies, entire books, & journalistic efforts. of course the only counter that is ever offered to this is “i or someone i know is christian and not racist, so what now?” which is also false 99% of the time. occasionally, you’ll get a “you REALLY think that?” which also doesn’t refute the data whatsoever. a tasty bit of irony from the “facts over feelings” crowd.

“not only is jesus real, but he was exactly like me” the basis of that of course changes depending on where that story comes from.

Dammit. I almost had a full card.

People in here dumping on others for pushing stereotypes all the while doing the exact same thing by justifying their takes while also pushing stereotypes.

You people never cease to amaze me . . . .

Why is it so important to prove the shooter was racist? He shot a fucking teen. Shouldn't that be the focus of the conversation?

A teen almost died. I don't care about the reasons. I care about justice for that kid. The old man needs to pay a price. That event will haunt that teen for the rest of his life.

It doesn't matter at all if it was racist or not.

America has just suffered a week of utter shame and disgrace. The doorbell shooting, the wrong car shooting, the wrong driveway shooting.

Everyone in the USA and beyond should be rooting for maximum possible sentences for these psychopaths.

You want someone to think twice before they blow your brains out for making a completely harmless mistake in your life? Me too. Precedents must be set, cause it's terrifying.

Because people need to argue on the interwebs.

I checked back into this thread because it balloon'd to 18 pages assuming something new came up. Nothing new has shown up outside of some interview with his grandson. Why is this thread sparking such "debate"?

Because it provides more "ammo" for the foreign gun control contingent to dump all over America . . . gives them a chance to crow about how great they have it compared to us peons in the US.

Little brother syndrome. No one cares what Canadians think.

Well his self loathing corn row wearing Satanist trans activist BLM marching failed abortion of a grandson said old christians are all racists... Truly compelling and not at all suspect.

 

[jefferz]

It’s funny to see all the posters in here attacking the grandson, and white knighting the grandpa.
But yet, which one is facing life in prison.

You're not this dim bro...

You're not this dim bro...

challenge: explain how that statement makes him “dim” without including your own personal opinions.

 

[Poatan Power]

You're full of shit. You stated flat out the kid's hand was on the door handle like it was a fact: "...about skin color and not some old man being negligent about someone with their hand on his doorknob at night". If that's not an assumption, what is it, precisely, when only the murderer says that's what happened?

You put the ass in assumption and I called you on it so get real. You think it was negligence that after that old prick put a bullet in this kid's head that he needed to unload a second round into him as he lay on the ground?

How about addressing the actual point I made? There's nothing ideological about this other than your description of the grandson so kindly GTFO.

I love seeing all these reserve alt accounts show up around times like these and grind themselves to dust. Your trajectory will be fun to watch.

And what's "Oh boy" mean, precisely, do you mind explaining?

go cry somewhere else. The “oh boy” is the virtue signaling contest. And yes I assumed the hand was on the doorknob, but am willing to be wrong. You’re the one assuming racist ideology is why this happened, I’m assuming an old man was negligent because that’s what appears to have happened. I also don’t think the kid did anything wrong even if his hand was on the doorknob.

And there’s nothing wrong with me assuming the hand was on the doorknob. The old man said it was, and that’s why he shot. He said it in the immediate aftermath of the event, not a conjured up story him and his lawyer came up with during a trial.

It’s you creeps that immediately started salivating at the thought of an old white racist man being gifted a black kid to murder. It’s actually fairly far fetched. Try the simple answer first. You’re as bad or worse as the ones assuming the kid was up to no good.

feel free not to @ me unless you’re gonna be logical or even remotely unemotional about this.

These totally non-virtue signaling neutral logicians seem to think the grandson is a key player in the story now because he was interviewed on CNN.

If the prosecutor supplies legitimate evidence that's certainly acceptable... But believing the motherload of failed grandsons ? Hard pass....

LOL I never said any such thing, obviously. Here's what I said.

Crazy that people keep taking the shooter's word for what happened instead of the victim's statement--or just leaving it an open question like a sensible person having no way to verify either way--that he never touched anything on the house but the doorbell.

Thanks for playing. Please try again. I only need one more "misstatement made to cast doubt on the shooter's culpability because reasons" bingo to complete my card.

Anyone can clearly see I'm not the one making assumptions here.

If anyone is virtue signaling here it's you. You still haven't offered an explanation for how it is likely mere negligence when, after he unloaded a round into the kid's head which dropped him to the ground, he decided to try to finish the job with a second shot. But then you didn't address any other of my points either, eh, pissbelt?--lmao @ emotional

I addressed what was relevant and why I said what I said. Name calling and being vapid over some random event is your bag not mine. You're unhinged and angry, and I don't really care if you are, I'm just not gonna engage with you about it. Pissbelt? Yikes man, I hope you never find out my reddit karma. Might hit me where it hurts!

Name calling is not your bag, creep? Try to remember where the name calling started, there's a good lad.

Keep projecting, You made unfounded accusations. You cast ad hominem attacks. You addressed nothing; you dodged.

Ah, Sherdog; it's where irony goes to spawn.
