This is the kind of crap that will give fodder to the anti gun crowd....
http://www.foxnews.com/us/2012/11/30/shooting-florida-17-year-old-at-gas-station-draws-comparisons-to-trayvon-martin/?test=latestnews The fatal shooting of a Florida teenager who was listening to loud music in a car a week ago has drawn comparisons to the Trayvon Martin case, but the differences are significant. Unlike the Martin case, there were several witnesses to this shooting and there was no scuffle before 17-year-old Jordan Davis was shot to death. And notably, the man accused of firing into the car was arrested a day later. Michael David Dunn is charged with murder and attempted murder in the Nov. 23 shooting at a Jacksonville, Fla., gas station. The 45-year-old Dunn parked beside the sport utility vehicle occupied by Davis and three other young men and told them to turn the music down, police said. Dunn exchanged words with Davis, who was in the back seat, and started firing. He later told police he felt threatened. His attorney has said Dunn saw a gun and shot in self-defense, perhaps laying the ground work for a case under Florida's "stand your ground" law. Police said they didn't find a weapon in the SUV with the young men, and Ron Davis said he doesn't believe Dunn's claim that he saw a gun. He thinks Dunn is searching for an explanation.

Was it moved? Did anyone leave the scene etc....Hard to tell from that article....and I think the other poster was talking about posting full length articles without permission....dunno, I seem to think those restrictions went away.... |

The father is a moron: "Law enforcement should be the only people who should have guns on the street," he said. "That's what's killing our kids more than anything." What are his facts? I'm pretty sure automobiles, alcohol, and drugs kill kids more than anything. Typical lib-tard thinking the Police and Military will keep you safe 24/7. |
I don't know enough detail to say good or bad shoot (was there a shotgun pointed at him or not?) but I know that had an old white guy been beaten to death by four black youths it would not have even made the evening news much less received a salute from the local fire department Just saying
If the guy shot into the car simply because he was pissed off then he should spend the rest of his life in prison. |

Yeah, because what the father of the kid who got shot believes is SOOOOOO important when deciding whether or not it was a good shoot. |

Cops said there was no gun and he fled the scene and did not contact police. Unless the cops are lying or someone tampered with the evidence this guy is in big trouble. Im sure the station has video...we will see. I hope it was a good shoot but the actions of the shooter following the shoot do not bode well. |

Oh yeah, the rest of the evidence seems to point the the shooter being in major trouble. I was just curious why the article would include the "opinion" of the father. I mean really, what's the point in including that?
