I don't think that race had anything to do with it, nor do i think that the shooter is necessarily a bad person. It's instances like this that make me think twice about owning a gun. When you make that purchase, you are responsible for the destruction that you cause with it... I don't really trust myself or my fiance with a gun which is why I opt for non lethal options like bear-spray plus a baseball bat.

Baseball bats are definitely lethal.

That's true, but it would take a "bigger" accident to kill someone with a bat than with a gun.

It's pretty close to impossible to accidentally kill someone with a baseball bat.

it's a fairly simple tool and you seem like a capable person. I advocate keeping at least one close by and chambered as both an insurance policy and primarily a provider of meat. if you change your mind go with a good one with a track record of safety and reliability whose basic operation, care and maintenance you learn to know well. a vast majority of accidents like this one (not taking for granted that it might have been a psychopath who saw once in a lifetime chance to kill and get away with it and maybe even counter sue the state) result from operator error and are due to intoxication and or incompetence. pretty avoidable if you ask me. cub scout points for the bear spray that can be some effective shit.

people who have been dying of late, is people thought as intruders, but weren't. lets just be clear, and concise here. alot more of that then Trayvon Martin's been happening.

now that's just playing devils advocate. someone could have easily been popped dead from being hit in the head. someone who was standing up not ducking, like an idiot.

No you misunderstand. He said if the chick had been white and the guy who shot her was black, race wouldn't have even been mentioned. And that's probably true, unfortunately.

And those kids in CT deserved to die and I'm glad they're dead. I am glad that the survivors will have to "live with it" too. hahaha
It's about time Americans get a taste of their own medicine they dish out via drone strikes and shock 'n awe. Karma is a bitch. lol

Her BAC level was nearly 3 times the legal limit almost 3 hours after the accident.
There were several 911 calls about her before she got herself shot but again typical "urban" fuck the police im not taking responbility for my actions attitude is what got her killed.
Quote:
McBride had been involved in traffic accident more than two hours before she was shot, according to Detroit police. Just before 1 a.m. Nov. 2, a witness called 911 to say a woman was speeding down a street, hit a parked vehicle, got out of her car and left.
She later returned to the scene but left again before police arrived, according to a second 911 call. It is unclear where McBride was for the two hours after she left accident scene.
-------------------- I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
