  • Some of the people commenting could really hush........ If you don't know what really happen please take a seat. The man did what he had to do to protect his family. Why is no one talking about the innocent children that was in the house when Shaquone and his squad shot thru the house? Why is no one talking about the fact that these guys nearly kill this man's daughter. Thank God she only got grazed, if she had moved she would have gotten that bullet..... If it was your family what would you do? You told your mother you were going Bayland...... How the hell Bayland get in St. Joseph?? Stupzzzzzz!! At the end of the day he got what he deserved. What were you doing trying to pull off the man's front door?? You live there?? I don't feel for you.....I guess this is what happens when you're trying to live what you see on TV. Stop interfering with people whom you've never met in your life!!!!! You might just get a surprise!!!!!

  • Those whom we elect to represent us should represent instead of passing the buck. It is time that the law be enforced in all areas.
    We really need to be proactive instead of being reactive.
    The criminals are having a field day. It appears we will soon be ruled by the criminals because they seem to have all the rights.
    I have said it before, and will continue to say, it is my opinion this country is crying out for radical changes. Stop treating the criminals with kid gloves. They seem to have no respect for God nor man.
    Let's take back our COUNTRY.
