Another old white racist planning to use the Stand Your Ground defense. New Orleans appears to be the new epicenter for it.
 
Best running back in America coming out of high school and the elusive hero of the book, Meat Market.

Terrible shame.

"A source at the scene told The Times-Picayune that she saw McKnight apologizing to the visibly agitated assailant at an intersection in Terrytown, Louisiana. The assailant, who was yelling, shot McKnight, proceeded to stand over him and yell “I told you don’t you f**k with me,” then shot him again."

Jesus.
 
Unreal.

I was driving to a game tonight and was in a mini-road rage incident. Guy wouldn't let me merge over. Kept pushing up, pushing up. I fell back but after he pulled ahead, he was out his window yelling at me.

It's one space. Just ... let it go. It's hard. It's ridiculous. But there are a lot of assholes out there and you never know who's packing.
 
I'm not a good driver (you all know that I'm sure) and I'm probably just very lucky I haven't been involved in more accidents, but for God's sake, it's only driving.

There was one time when a woman pulling out of a driveway threatened to shoot me because she thought I came a little too close to her. I didn't hit her so I don't know what her problem was. I certainly didn't try to hit her. Another time, I cut off a guy (not on purpose) and the guy pulled about 200 yards in front of me, backed up at me at speed and stopped just short of hitting me, I guess, to prove that it doesn't matter what I meant to do, it matters what I did.

Why can't people let no-harm, no-foul situations go?

ChrisLong would like to know your race, for the purpose of dinner-time discussions.
 
The cops let him walk free. So maybe we're missing something? Yes, I think we are. But let's immediately make this a black-white thing, with an eye witness -- who are always reliable and with no vested interest, racial or otherwise -- basically saying he pulled a Terminator-like quote before pumping an additional round into McKnight....

Sure
 
I mean, even if it was self-defense (which goes against all the eye-witness accounts and the fact that McKnight was unarmed), I'm not sure I like a system where you can walk out of jail less than 24 hours after killing another person. Should be more red tape than that.

Yeah, this raises some red flags.

What??

How long should you remain in jail for a justified killing?
 
Overnight might be good. People get held in jail overnight for ****in unpaid parking tickets.
