    Sounds like self defense to me.People may look at the ages and consider them kids, but this isn’t 1950 anymore and these kids weren’t there to egg his house.

    Show me the last time someone’s house got egged in retaliation for murder. Isn’t the 1950’s? You’re right. Today, people kill over cell phones.

    That’s right. Why did they have a nigger friend to begin with? Maybe this should be 1950 — or 1930 — when the whole lot of the niggers would have been strung up with rope and there would have been no reperating of the Jew-NAACP stories in the Jew press.

    The moral of the story is, don’t invite ower primates to your house to party. They can’t help the way they behave, it’s in their genes after 20,000 years in the jungle.
