While I don't recall the circumstances of this shooting and I'm sure it happened in the heat of the moment, the lost of a young man by shooting by those, sworn to protect the people.

Before condemning "those sworn to protect the people" for his death it could be wise to check "the circumstances of this shooting".

As reported in the article and previously: "In late September, police arrested a 28 year old man on attempted murder charges for allegedly shooting the 15 year old in the neck at the August rally."

Gee mate, you might want to to a bit of research before claiming you are "sure" of something.

You just made that all up.

It was a good story from Jason though.

Loosely based on a true story.

Looser than a loose thing that's come loose.

Absolutely appalling that although some young person has lost their life certain posters have resorted to off topic bickering. Sad state of mind some people
