Story around the office cooler here at my office in Lafayette is that these boys were trying to go meet some friends. Rumor had it that they were not trying to break into any vehicles at all, but one of them knew the house and the brother of the shooter. He also knew that beer was kept in an outdoor fridge, thus they were trying to score some suds.
If that is the case, how tradgic for all involved! - Hell, even I was trying to score some suds at 15. On another note, WTH is LPD charging this guy with 1st degree anyway. That does not seem like the right charge along with 2 counts attempted 1st degree. I didn't go to law school, or sleep at a Holiday Inn last night, but seems like manslaughter is more appropiate. |

Anyway, back on topic, I'm sure the charges will be reduced somewhat. I'd also bet that this young man will likely spend many years in prison for this. Is that right or wrong, I can't say. I don't know what all happened. Bad deal, either way. |

Just my opinion but I don't feel the shooter deserves to be locked up at all if they were breaking into his truck. I understand that he was wrong for firing shots off at a fleeing truck but to wrongs don't make a right.

Seth is going down. And he should. There was no threat, he shouldve never pulled the gun out much less pulled the trigger

...and as a side note...more fuel in the fire on the side of firearm opponents.

Did they release the names of the kids that were shot yet?

Also, this is what happens when you dont get help from police, people take matters into their own hands. Cars broken in to 4-5 times. Dont hear back from police on any of them. You arm yourself and try and fix the situation.
Not saying this is in any why the police's fault at all. |

The kid be charged with 1 st degree murder in this case is exactly why we have so many criminals in today's world. They pay no consequences but yet the victim who fights back gets charged. Just another shinning example of what America has become!

I don't think violence is right, but I think everyone should be allowed to defend themselves and their possessions. If it really was his third or fourth time getting his vehicle broken into, I would have done the same thing. And I think his sister is just going to make things worse.

Lets see.....One minor shot dead, two other minors wounded and the likelihood that the shooter will spend most of his life in jail.
and some of you think that this was justified? Justified over what? Beer, maybe a cell phone...or whatever. Get a license# and turn them perps over to the police. So many young lives that have been destroyed here...shooting them as they were running away was not the right answer. |

I will agree with Reefman to a point but it is sad that this happened but its also sad that even if he caught them red handed and held them till police got there they would have just been released to their parents who evidently ain't doin a good job in the first place. I know this probably will turn out unjustified and the shooter will end up doin time and no the punishment for theft shouldn't be death but if they prove these kids were breaking into his truck then they should be beat on public TV and it be shown in every school of America that this is the punishment.
I had a 4wheeler stolen and my buddies horse stolen by some "miss guided" kids that cost us both money and time lost just to have them turned back over to their parents.... where's the justices in that, they should everyone of them be tried along with their parents and then anyone found guilty at the least beat and put on TV. When we began dealing REAL justice to kids and adults for crimes I bet people will think twice. |

I would venture to guess the young man that squeezed the trigger is thinking the same right now. Too bad because, really, I can see his frustration but, in that, you have to learn self control. To me, that's the most important aspect of responsible gun ownership.

I used to have the attitude of " if you take my things or try to take my things , it's your azz". Well now a days I have a lot to lose if I go shoot someone trying to take my stuff. The only time I'd shoot is if someone was inside my home and I felt mine or my families life was threatened. The last thing I want is some thug democrats family trying to sue me because they wanted to steal from me to buy crack.... I will let the police handle it
