    They were all in a fetal position by the time they read "it's night in Chicago".

    I live in Illinois.
    It’s a good law.
    The intention of the criminals don’t matter - what matters is that their collective actions caused death. Therefore they will be charged and tried for murder.

    You bet. Scared of your formidable ability as a thinker. In fact, all of us conservatives just tremble when you
    appear .. "Oh no, it's that MelKor again! Thousands of facts at his fingertips, effortless rebuttals of our every
    point, quotations from great thinkers, reference to history, command of hundreds of books and academic
    studies to back up his views ... where did he come from? Probably has at least two PhD's and an IQ out
    in the fifth Standard Deviation! What'll we do, oh what'll we do?"

    Hmmm.... you really think so? In Democratic Chicago? With Black Lives Matter? And the Democrats busily making a Martyr of Michael Brown? I think they'll indict the shooter, actually.

    Now c'mon! You're implying that they think Chicago is dangerous for some reason. They'd never think something like that. Why, it's just like a little
    town in Iowa, only bigger.

    I remember Michael Moore, in one of his films, laughing at rightwing stereotypes about the ghetto, being interviewed (during daylight) in Watts in LA. Perfectly safe (surrounded by film crew and who knows what other protection). Maybe he'll go to South Chicago on a Saturday night and do it
    again. Film what happens safely from a drone. I wonder if we could crowd-fund it?

    I think that's sexist. Women are no different from men.

    I think that they are siblings.

    One thing is for and that is that the mob is eager to hang them. The judge has already violated their Constitutional rights.

    "The teens appeared in court Tuesday afternoon and a Lake County judge set bail at $1 million each. They are set to appear in court again on Sept. 5."

    The rule I live by is if I fear for my life I'm going to shoot first and ask questions later. I would rather be judged by 12 than carried by 6.

    Yeah I know, been there, that is why I am against the written law. The civil confiscation laws are pure draconian.

    This is not the first case where this law applied. ;)

    Also, the crime didn’t happen in Chicago.

    Have you ever tried to build an apartment building in California or fight a parking ticket or use the courts to obstruct and resist the federal government ?

    Ever tried to get that taco truck sitting in front of your home to move on or keep finding poop and hypodermic needles on your front porch every morning ?

    Why is that prostitute alway hanging around you when you are gay ?

    Why does a $25 traffic ticket end up costing you $200 ?

    THE VERDICT IS IN—CALIFORNIA’S DICKENSIAN COURTS ARE FAILING US
    Our Clogged Legal System Creates Overcrowded Prisons, Underfunded Schools, Housing Shortages, Water Shortages, Expensive Electric Bills, and Way to Many Illegal Aliens and Gangs.

    He shot him as the group of boys, one with a knife, were advancing towards him. Then they fled,

    That's it, blame the victim, whom you and the rest of the left, would see disarmed. Here in America, we have a right to defend ourselves and protect our property.

    The man didn't shoot the youth for stealing his car. He shot him when the group was advancing on him, one with a knife. In other words, they were about to beat and stab the old man to death for trying to stop them from stealing his car.

    Here's something to read for those of you wondering how a kid might end up like the kid in this story did. Hint: It starts with the parents.
