WTF is your problem? You're the only making sick comments about how you'd like to see this guy get raped in prison or get killed.

You're also the only one making assumptions that the old man MIGHT have a backyard full of dead bodies. (which is not even remotely close to anything we know about this case and seems to be a figment of your deranged mind)

True, the old man killed a person and he deserves whatever the court decides, but you seem to get off on his impending punishment. If you were the victim's wife, maybe I'd understand the sentiment, but you're not.


Judging solely by your comments on this thread, I'd be inclined to think you've got major issues.

I suppose if you keep writing it you'll somehow believe this is true. The old man started the entire incident and finished like the coward that he is. Watch the video - he shot him in seconds. The texter never had a chance. Like 800 other posts state on this thread about the shooter - change seats.

Sure he did. The texter could have changed seats when the old man left. They both could have avoided this whole confrontation.

You just find it painful because it is true (from all evidence presented thus far).

So the guy defending himself should have moved...so he wouldn't be attacked. Good logic I guess, but maybe it had not occurred to him that a grown man would attack him and commit assault and battery over being "told on". I know it would have never occurred to me. Hindsight is typically 20-20.

People like that are always trying to intimidate someone weaker or older. If you let them have their way every time, it would lead to a pretty miserable life. Standing your ground does not usually result in your being assaulted. When it does...you have no choice but to defend yourself or take a beating. Which would you choose?

Change seats or be assaulted...what kind of choice is that?

Obviously, many of the 800 previous posts believed the misrepresentation of the press...that this man was killed over popcorn. Made a great by-line, but was hardly accurate.

He was. 801.

what is accurate and clearly shown in the videos is that the 71 year old man started and then ended the fight with a bullet. The victim was attempting to stand his ground when threatened by the 71 year old man but got murdered instead. Sometimes it doesn't pay to stand your ground i guess. Good thing the 71 year old man is behind bars so he can't continue to be a threat to society.

Another witness statement released yesterday reported the old man said "throw popcorn at me will you I show you " or something to that effect just before he shot him. Clearly he knew he was hit with harmless popcorn and nothing more sinister.

I think I will believe the video and not someone's "memory".
