How did ShootSpeeders so quickly ruin a thread everyone was going to agree with?

That's what he always does. He starts a thread that does have a valid point. Then he follows it up with a racist rant and ruins it. Matthew and Tank do the same thing.

The board was warned you about calling conservatives racist. We are opposed to affirmative action and thus are anti-racist. You liberals are racist since you support AA, the govt mandated persecution of white people and the biggest hate crime in america. THINK

the board is wondering if you are ever going to prove some of the shit you have stated as fact?.....like when you said Obama is the one who sets the postage rates....

The post in question was rambling nonsense. And you expect him to prove other one lol.

What? Do you want to repost that while sober? Talk about irony....lol.

Jury nullification let another vigilante go and i say great. The govt coddles deadly drunk drivers and people are forced to meet out justice themselves.

Texas Man Acquitted of Charges He Shot the Drunk Driver Who Killed His Sons - TIME

aug 27, 2014
David Barajas was acquittedWednesday over charges that he shot and killed a drunk driver who had earlier hit and killed his two sons.

Barajas was on trial for fatally shooting Jose Banda, who drove into Barajas and his 11-and-12-year-old sons while they were pushing a truck that had run out of gas. Barajas survived the incident, but his two young boys were killed. The prosecutors in the case said Barajas went home to get a gun and returned to shoot and kill Banda, the Associated Press reports.

The case was complicated, as there were no witnesses of the shooting, the murder weapon was never recovered, and gun shot residue tests on Barajas came back negative. However, ammunition and a holster for the type of gun that killed Banda were found in Barajas’ home.

The defense, however, argued that there was not enough evidence to tie Barajas to the crime. Barajas may have also had jury sympathy, since he had support from the community in his Houston-area city of Alvin.

You cannot let people take the law into their own hands.

They didn't idiot, they simply gave the verdict that they thought reasonable fair and just.

In the bad old days of imperial King John, juries protected many an innocent person from the unjust laws of a tyrant. They are equally needed now as they were then.

If the authorities really are letting that man slide for taking out who killed his kids, I am rather stunned. You would think that he would be charged for not letting the law decide on what the guy's fate would be for killing that man's kids, but that right there is the reason why I do not blame their dad for taking action. I wouldn't have wanted to see the man end up being just another person who gets away with what they are guilty of if them boys were my kids.

The final authority in this case is the jury and apparently they disagree with you.

What do you mean they disagree with me? Wasn't the man acquitted? Only in a way am I glad that he was if he was. I get why he did what he did, but now a life is over because of his own choice of action and if he is able to live with what he did, that of course is up to him, but what makes him different from the man who killed his kids is that murder was his every intention when killing anyone was not the intention of the guy who killed his kids. Don't get me wrong, to me, that man screwed up royally by driving drunk, but now that he is gone too, he no longer has the ability to live with what he was guilty of. I guess that right there would be my only question for him if he was still alive to answer it. How did he feel about being the reason why two boys are not here anymore?

God bless you and their family always!!!

P.S. I guess that I pretty much have mixed feelings about that man being acquitted for what he did because letting him get away with it may then give everyone else the impression that they too can get away with doing what he did if they were to ever be in his spot. That right there is just it. If one is going to be acquitted for doing such a thing, why not another? Therefore, maybe the father of them boys should be punished in some way for what he did to who took his kids from him especially if he isn't going to be sorry for it and we all know that he isn't going to be. I just can't help but wonder how the family of the man who is now not here anymore feels about him being killed too. Now they too have lost someone.

I love how you post. I disagree with you, but I feel good about it.
