CNN has been airing the headline non stop of 'white man shoots black teen'


As of early today CNN has aired this over 60 times and what is going on in Chicago only 8 times.

See my previous post. I think we're going to have to use the Wayback Machine to find the original news reports, which doubtless say that he ENTERED THE HOUSE before he was shot... Now all we hear, over and over, is "ringing the wrong doorbell".


Listening to Crowder today he said that the police report of the older man said that he answered the door and a man roughly 6 foot was pulling on his outer glass door. This startled him and he became scared he was trying to get in, so he shot two quick shots through the door and the person ran off. The Old guy immediately called the police for further help.

This doesn't say the man was 100% right in his actions, but it does ring a level of reality as to what may have happened.

a reply to: TruthThinker According to the police the old guy said the guy was pulling at the exterior door handle. Lester did call 911 from his home phone right after he fired the shots. Yarl told the cops he didn't touch the exterior screen door but the finger prints on the front door weren't the home owners. This article has the probable cause statement form by the police in it. The cops want an interview with Yarl but apparently at least until yesterday his mother isn't returning their calls.

If I ring someone's doorbell, and they don't answer, I open their screen door and knock. He thought he was at the right house. A house occupied by people his parents and siblings knew.

That's not "standing your ground."

That's shooting first and checking later. Perhaps it was a bad neighborhood. Who knows, but he ought to be charged.

All this assuming there are no significant details left out.

sometimes called "line in the sand" or "no duty to retreat" law, provides that people may use deadly force when they reasonably believe it to be necessary to defend against certain violent crimes.



Sure, but I wasn't aware ringing a doorbell is a violent crime to defend yourself against.


i bet he won't be ringing any door bells himself, anytime soon remember the last time?

on the other hand, a couple pulled into a driveway to turn around and the home owner shot the girl dead in the passenger seat.

but she was white so won't hear much about it.

Fair enough.

If im 80, live alone and sleep with a firearm handy, having my doorbell ring after 10pm would make me grab it too. And if I then hear my storm door opening, assume the worst.

I wonder why the sibling and parents both know where the actual house is, but not the teen who went to pick them up.

Once again, not saying the man was 100% in the right, but you are 84 and you open the door to see a young man pulling on your outer door and so you think he is coming in and you fire two quick shots and call the police. So the guy thought he was at the right house and the old man thought he was coming in... Both can be a 100% correct statement.

BTW if I ring a doorbell I stand back and wait...

I think the teen was one street off, something like 1st place vs 1st street. Regardless, I was raised to respect other people's homes and not attempt to open their door, even a storm door, the only exception being a friend that was basically family and it was established that I could just walk in. Obviously the teen didn't have that kind of familiarity with the house if he went to the wrong one. Sure the old guy may have been paranoid, but he also may have experienced a break-in or something similar which caused him to be on edge.

I used to live in a neighborhood where something similar happened. It was around 9:00pm and my neighbor heard loud knocking at his door, and he's already had drug addicts snooping around his yard. So he grabbed a can of bear mace and slowly opened the door, the stranger tried to barge in, so my neighbor kicked the door closed and knocked the guy back, then opened the door back up and unloaded the bear mace on him. Cops found the guy 20 minutes later down the alley way with another homeowner holding a shotgun to his head because he tried the same thing. Turns out the guy was drunk and on acid and was trying to get back to his friends house which he couldn't find. Lucky he didn't get killed.

Yeah crap happens if you're not careful and don't think. This is why parents have a responsibility to raise their children to be responsible and respectful. The teenager would not have been shot if he had that mindset and didn't try and let himself in a house which he wasn't familiar with.

People trying to turn this into a race thing, or dumping all over the old guy for a mistake, really need to lay of the msm propaganda and social media.

geezus, I don't have enough popcorn for this one.

Love how ATS just jumps the gun these days and everyone has an opinion before anyone knows anything.

Well done peeps.

One day many of you might actually shut the fudge up until you ave some actual facts. But I doubt it.


Man, the state of this site these days.

I certainly mentioned it here and it's all over news and social media. However no one is complaining about showing old cheerleading pics or questioning whether she was planning on robbing the place. Notice you didn't mention that she "wouldn't be pulling in any driveways soon" either.

Just happened again in Texas where a cheerleader was shot after she attempted to get in the wrong car in a parking lot thinking it was hers. She quickly got back into the other car with her friend, but the guy came over and shot her. She appears mixed though, so you might complain about her photo and what she was really doing instead of it being a mistake.

And now people are complaining that the gofund me for the 20 year old girls' funeral expenses did not receive as much as the fund for the boys' medical expenses. And that's due to reverse racism.

Man, the state of this site these days.


I have noticed this vitriolic change.

I know it is by design. I just don’t know if it is the lifting of the veil and people’s true hearts and minds are being opened and displayed, or if this is the way they have always been but now they feel empowered to let their freak flags fly because, they know they can get support on the internet.

Not just ATS but the majority of the forums have become cesspools for depravity, hatred, and the spewing of divisive ideology. Tools for the system.

There are very few places to go for a sharing of ideas where you don’t have to agree but you do have to have to show respect. It is getting worse here because you cannot consume this much poison without becoming sick.

Maybe ….. but I do think rational, honest people are pretty frustrated by seeing forums flooded with blatant lying and childish nonsense. Not to mention the most reprehensible beliefs paraded around loud and proud, without a modicum of shame. Quite a few threads right now are nothing but various characters spouting a bunch of foolishness that a normal ten year old wouldn’t be seen saying. It gets old.

Could possibly be described as a fear crime and not a hate crime. There is a difference even if both are based on ignorance.

What you are seeing is AI run amok at the bidding of those that would divide us. I've seen a surge in racist rants and hate speech and its being done to justify a crack down in free speech which will only serve the NWO/ WEF /Deep State manipulators. They want free speech banned, guns confiscated, people divided and believing that only an all powerful authoritarian world government can bring people together and keep them safe.
Bots suck ass.
