Baseball Player Killed Because Kids "Were Bored"
http://espn.go.com/college-sports/story/_/id/9583091/baseball-player-killed-kids-were-bored
An Australian man attending an Oklahoma college on a baseball scholarship was shot and killed in what police described Monday as a random act of violence by three "bored" teenagers who decided to kill someone for the fun of it.
Christopher Lane, 22, of Melbourne, was found dead Friday while visiting the town of Duncan, where his girlfriend and her family live. Three boys, ages 15, 16, and 17, are in custody and face a court appearance Tuesday afternoon.
Duncan Police Chief Danny Ford said Monday a woman called 911 after she saw Lane stagger across the road and fall to the ground in the south-central Oklahoma town of about 24,000 residents. Ford said Lane, who was staying with his girlfriend and her family in Duncan, had jogged past a home where the three boys were staying. He said the shooting appeared to be completely random.
...
"They saw Christopher go by, and one of them said: 'There's our target,'" Ford said. "The boy who has talked to us said: 'We were bored and didn't have anything to do, so we decided to kill somebody.'"
WTF?

2. Gotta wonder about the background of these kids.....
I'm telling you, these guys were likely either abused as kids(or grew up in homes where physical violence and/or other malevolence was common), or are mentally ill, or even both!....that's usually the problem with people like this, as this stuff just does not happen with normal kids who grew up with good families(no matter if materially "spoiled" or not).
Rest in peace, Chris Lane......you died too young.

47. Thugs
Or they might have been thugs. A lot more of them going around shooting people in this country than gun nuts.

53. I thought I'd read on DU by a member in the gun control group that
"Thugs" was a "dog whistle" term. I am not jumping on you for using it but do you believe "thugs" to be a dog whistle term?

52. Ever been to a picnic where everyone brought their dog?
Individually, cute puppies. Together, an out of control wolf-pack.
Dog whistles are often heard by libs.

It took three replies to make excuses for the animals.
^Assumes that all people in Oklahoma are white. :lmao:
How racist. Comparing black kids to animals. :-)

They looks like thugs.

I'm surprised that the race apologists on Skins's island haven't shown up yet.
But I expect they will.
Part of the problem of us watching them is their unwillingness to be themselves. We're in a better position than are they to be honest of what they would really like to say.

I remember the day the news first broke about poor lil Trayvon.They will all swear up and down race played no role. This is all while Oprah, now one of the zombies for owebuma is insisting that the Zimmerman case was all about race, even though everyone involved said it wasn't. Who are you going to believe the libs or your own lying ears and eyes ?
I think the wife-abandoning sparkling old dude was the first, and the bitter old Vermontese cali primitive only minutes behind, to make it into a racial issue.
95. I don't see this as a gun case
other than they should not have had access to guns. They were underage and obviously unfit to use them. I think this is one of those situations where idle teens behave in incomprehensibly horrific ways. It's the way they described their motivation for killing the man that is so awful. "we were bored" and thought it would be "fun." It's chilling.
..The PhDD chimes in..
Now we know where she draws the line. It seems gun cases only involve creepy-ass crackas and White Hispanics as the shooter. When the shooter is a black kid who picked a mark out at random and killed him because of 'boredom' and then dances at the police station in joy over it, it suddenly isn't.
I'm guessing she is pegging this as a mental health issue instead. I can't help but to wonder if the PhDD had the same diagnosis over a few other shootings where the perp was obviously disturbed, yet also a cracka-ass-honky ? -Giffords, The movie theater, Newtown ? All obviously mental, yet white ?
Somehow, I doubt it.
I don't give a flying fig if they had a bad childhood, if they wet their bed, or if they are straight out thugs. Death sentence for all. Lack of accountability is ruining this country and I am damn sick and tired of it.Me too, and I'm not going to take it anymore !

122. Sometimes it is best to call a spade a spade.
That being said, I knew plenty of white thugs growing up in Bridgeport in Chicago. I went to high school with the thugs that beat up Lenard Clark.
Wander through one of their pic threads and you will understand why they can hear "Dog Whistles":lmao: :rotf: :cheersmate:

These evil freaks should be executed in a slow and painful death. :argh:
Ol' Vlad Dracul's method would work here, IMHO.
Like it. I also like exposing them to nuclear radiation.
And the thing that gets me the most, if it had been 3 white kids that shot a black jogger they would be SO UPSET! Why aren't they upset now? It's the same thing!
No, it's not the same thing. It's not news. It's a dog-bites-man deal.
People are only interested when it's man-bites-dog.
No one is interested when savages act like savages. It's expected of them, so it's boring.

He was a foreigner, they used a gun, and it's ****ing Oklahoma.

36. Depends how racist the OK justice system is
do you think they will miss an opportunity to put three black men in prison?
Ya don't say. :whistling:I wonder why "Ace" hasn't been called out?

According to one of the websites reporting the crime, the killers were either active members of the Crips street gang, or at least aspiring members, and had been "Troublemakers" and "Bullies" with "No parental supervision" for some time before the shooting.
In plain English, they were indeed thugs in every sense of the word, and products of modern liberal parenting.
How long do you think it will be before some DUmmy says something along the lines of, "The unjust verdict in the George Zimmerman trial left African- Americans all over the country feeling angry and desiring justice. These three upstanding young men undoubtedly felt that way, in addition to the centuries of oppression their people suffered at the hands of white men, and viewed Mr. Lane as the embodiment of their ancestors' white oppressors, so they struck out in righteous anger at him to deal a blow against injustice. Surely, as a society defined by equality and social justice, we can't punish them for that, can we? btw, anyone who thinks they're guilty is a racist."?

No, it's not the same thing. It's not news. It's a dog-bites-man deal.That's the attitude that makes libs so racist. The soft racism of low expectations, and the hard racism of low standards.

So, you're saying that they shouldn't pay for their crime?The racist system forced the 3 angels to put a bullet into an innocent man's back.

Seems to have a whole lot less to do with them being bored, than with being wannabee gangstas, the way I read the stories.
Teenagers, oldest one was white,Not so sure.
Not so sure.I've noticed that. To me, I don't care if the low-lifes were green.
If 0bama had a son, he could look like the one they called "white".
Teenagers, oldest one was white, you're a ****ing idiot...
No, there weren't any white kids there! If Zimmerman couldn't be Hispanic I'll be damned if the white community has to accept that half breed!I wonder if this might be obumaz son.

They almost killed a Black teenager, Christopher Johnson, after they killed Chris Lane.

Then we would be hearing it throughout the media that a white kid killed an African American because of racism. Also the old racist Jackson would be calling for a bunch of things to happen. That would have fit the narrative.It would be a more ironic twist if one or more of the perpetrators was white so that the case could be "Zimmermanned" better. That way an even more unsubstantiated claim of racism could be asserted, just like in the Zimmerman case. I would love to see that shoved down Oprah's throat now that she is making all kinds of unsubstantiated claims about racism lately. The absurdity is palpable.
As to the one kid being white, looks like his father was black, mother white (remind you of anyone) and he hung with the black kids (aka gangs).
I read the DUmmie responses at the DUmp and the last post was about another killing just for fun.....DUmmies are a sick bunch and liberalism raises a bunch of sick kids.

DUmmies are criminals and violent.Don't forget innately racist.

Have you ever noticed, it's almost never the other way around?
I wonder why that is.
Another murder by Obama sons and a daughter. ****ing hoodrats.
