3 Teens Killed As A Result Of Prank Gone Wrong

[harmonica]

..the kids are to blame, not the homeowner ...no prank--no deaths ..I'd vote not guilty

At the end of the day, how bad is ringing a person's door bell and then taking off? How the homeowner responded only kept the "game" going and now look at what has happened. Don't be surprised if the homeowner is labeled more of a perpetrator compared to the kids in the eyes of the authorities when the homeowner is without a doubt guilty of more than what the kids are guilty of. If the kids had to pay, why not the homeowner as well in some way when they are now guilty of worse?

God bless you and the families of the victims always!!!

P.S. My only other question is does the homeowner have any remorse for the role that they decided to play?

..actions have reactions and consequences ...how would you like it if one of your family members were scrared from some '''prank''?

ok, now I get your logic. Pranks are fine unless somebody gets scared, and if the prankster actually scares somebody, then the prankster should be killed.

.....as stated---you cause shit you are going to get shit back.....they went out of their way to start shit .....

Simply a tragic tragic story.....basically 6 California teens were having a sleepover -- and they dared one of the teens to either jump in the pool or go play a long time childhood prank known as ding dong ditch...so they hop in a 2002 Honda Prius and go out looking for the right house to prank...unfortunately they picked the wrong house...

"Once there, one of the boys got out of the car, rang the doorbell, and ran back to the Prius, authorities said. Anurag Chandra, a 42-year-old Corona resident and owner of the house, then allegedly got into his 2019 Infinity Q50 and began chasing the teens’ car, the DA’s office said. ..the man allegedly ran his vehicle into theirs, forcing it off the road in Temescal Valley, about 60 miles southeast of Los Angeles -- The teens' Prius then collided with a tree, killing three 16-year-old boys: Drake Ruiz, Daniel Hawkins, and Jacob Ivascu."

Now most of us played pranks as kids -- this may have included the ding dong prank, wrapping toilet paper around homes, egging cars, etc -- and most of the times, adults would handle it by giving the kids a stern talking and then going and telling the parents of those kids...what this guy did was absolutely over the top -- these boys didn't damage your property, they didn't try to break in your house -- but you hop in your car and take actions that resulted in these boys losing their life? Luckily this guy was arrested, charged with three counts of murder and three counts of attempted murder -- and he faces the death penalty when convicted....

For some ten years my home was a target of daily, school day kids' pranks.
Fostered by benign neglect & passive approval of their parents.
Yes I talked to the families.
Lucky for me I am not a gun owner!

A PRANK IS BETWEEN FRIENDS.
A quality lost on this current situation and mine!

Yes I called police and requested coverage any school day
at a time kids attack. Over years they were always "too busy"

I bet this was not the first incident for the accused killer
as kid's victim.

While that is sad, it is not an excuse for getting into your car, chasing them down, running them off the road and killing them.

Just saying knowing if these kids regularly "pranked" him,

Like White On Hindu​

would be of interest to me -
Having been chronically pranked myself for not
being Catholic.

GET IT OR NOT! ​

Wow! Really? According to you then, ringing the doorbell of the wrong house Is punishable by death. That is some messed up thinking dude.

..just like Laquan McDonald and all these punks bastards--they are starting crap/committing crimes that INITIATE the problem --so they have SOME blame also

Having your doorbell rung is scary?

..when we were in high school, we stole Drive In speakers and hung them on our teacher's door...he said his wife was scared of people messing around out there--so yes--for some

Only question is intentional or by accident...............Killing them for a door bell prank............Nah...........that's over the top for me.

Sounds like it looked very like an attempted home invasion. We have those around here --- usually blacks --- and you definitely don't want to give home invaders a chance to get inside. If they get in, you are dead.

I bet it really pisses you off that the kids who died are white kids huh?

But fret not....you are in luck....the guy who killed them is kind of black looking.....

Now back to your racist circle jerk

KIND OF BLACK LOOKING???

That so doesn't count. The name doesn't sound black; is he or isn't he?

 

[Circe]

are you going to run down the Jehova's Witnesses every time they ring your door bell?

Great idea! That would really solve the problem.

No, just kidding, because there haven't been Jehovah's Witnesses OR those damn scary Mormons in their black suits for ---- really, more than a decade now.

Probably because people finally started to shoot at them because of all the home invasions and druggies and burglaries going on! So they stopped with the religious crap, thank God.

It took me YEARS before I figured out -- I didn't have to open my door! Just because some loser religious creeps or salesmen are knocking on it, I don't have to deal with them. Eventually, they'll go away. It was like a revelation.

We use to do that in the early 70's only we called it N!@@er knocking.
We'd then hide so we could see their reaction.

The thread parent presents as black, so were these black kids? Is it some kind of hostile black game like "knock out"? If they were black that would DEFINITELY up the fear and anger ratio of the homeowner. I would view such an attack late at night as very threatening ----- frankly, they would do well to get off my land reaaallll quick, because I would shoot.

I wouldn't drive after them, though, and I would call the police PDQ.

Look at the link.
It was a bunch of white bread kids. That they were driving a Prius would be the first clue.
How old are you? I wouldnt freak out about this prank at all because it was popular when I was a kid and I'd recognize it for what it was....a prank.

No, the kid (adult, 18: he was driving) who did the interview was clearly black. I looked up the original article. I don't know what the other two survivors were. No photos of them.

The kid driving was a mexican or south American.

Did you look at the photo, or just the name? There's a lot of black in there, clearly.

Brazil, maybe. Apparently they cross a lot there.

He was driving. I'm blaming him.

I looked at the photo he could be mixed no doubt.
Had a buddy from Costa Rica that looked a lot like him.
Like I said earlier though. We Ni@@er knocked a lot as a kid in the early 70's and this kinda shit never happened since it was a known prank.
Add an immigrant that doesnt understand the prank and he may see it as threatening.

..the kids are to blame, not the homeowner ...no prank--no deaths ..I'd vote not guilty

The only thing that the kids are guilty of is ringing the guy's doorbell and if they only rang it one time, since when does anyone deserve to die for doing such a thing? If the guy is that easily paranoid over something like that, perhaps he needs to be in the padded cell area of the nearest mental facility.

God bless you and the families of the victims always!!!

Some friends and I did the ding-and-ditch prank once as teens. The guy came after us firing a gun.

He must have been a bad shot.

 

[tigerred59]

Times are changing and its up to parents to educate kids on this newness of guns and the potential for their use. This guy however did go overboard, he should have called the cops or just let the shit go. Ppl are to quick to harm fellow human beings out of anger...ie Trump world

I agree, call the cops or just let the shit go..Geezzus

Because he only used a car....if he had used a gun to kill those kids he should have gotten the death penalty.

Of course, some creep has to come into the thread to sow partisan divisions on a thread that has nothing to do with politics. Booooo!

You've been gone a while, my dear. That's pretty much the new normal around here.
