Why? Pelican Jul 2013 #3

Because he stalked and murdered a kid who was doing nothing but minding his own business? EOTE Jul 2013 #14

No.. why do you think he would do it again after all the hubbub... Pelican Jul 2013 #18

Because he's already gotten away with it? EOTE Jul 2013 #20

If anything he'll have an incident... Pelican Jul 2013 #25

And that incident could very well happen because no one should feel safe around that thug. EOTE Jul 2013 #26

I know I would be. He'd see me giving him the stink eye and consider that justification to kill me. kestrel91316 Jul 2013 #31

I agree, in Floridah that should be cause to shoot him doc03 Jul 2013 #33
