Find it hard to believe a 54 year old businessman could "pull" Joe McKnight out of his vehicle. Pro football players are substantially stronger than the average bear. Guess we'll have to wait for the whole story. So sad. If he's holding a gun on McKnight, then McKnight probably figured his best chance was to go along with Gasser and get out of the car while continuing to apologize and trying to reason with him. Besides, if McKnight and Gasser are out of the car other people can see what is happening and call the police to try to talk Gasser down. If Joe McKnight refused to get out of the car, Gasser might well have shot him on the spot for refusing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King P Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Hate to break it to you guys, but McKnight was the victim of a hate crime not road rage. Which is what I suspected the more I heard about this. CJ Mordock@CJMordock The sentence in LA for 2nd degree murder is life. Any hate crime enhancement is an additional 5 years to run consecutive. #RonaldGasser CJ Mordock @CJMordock 2h2 hours ago The sentence in LA for 2nd degree murder is life.

It's falling down the list fast. First the retired saint earlier in the year, then the big shootout earlier this week, and now this horrible story. Place is a sh*t hole.

jetophile Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Heard about this last night. That's terrible. People are nuts. Poor guy, RIP. If this was indeed a hate crime, it makes the shooter an even bigger dirtbag. Sheese. We'll find out more soon, I'm sure. I just hope cooler heads prevail. None of this sh!t even seems to get better.

Except that it's not a deterrent, brings the family no peace and DNA has exonerated many death row inmates convicted on flimsy evidence, would be unconstitutional and cost the taxpayers more money. other than that it's a good idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really sorry for your loss, that is absolutely awful and I cannot imagine how terrible that is. But do we really need more race baiting in this country?? Its bad enough our media does it at every chance they get, do we really need to do it here? I come to places to get away from things like that, not get more of it.

A white guy killed an UNARMED black guy, who, according to witnesses was apologizing, and, guess what, no charges were filed. The guy is out on his own. To suggest that this is baiting when a man was killed is absurd, don't you think? I mean, sure, it might be baiting to you, but I'm a black man, in the f*cking crosshairs of loonies all over this country. It's very scary to me.

Thats not what I am talking about, I am talking about you making statements that whites who kill people are nuts but blacks who kill people are criminals. That is classic race baiting. I have no idea the details of what happened, regardless, its a horrible tragedy, and I hope that justice is served. What I have read is no charges were filed "YET" and that there still may be. Its very scary to me how this country is being pulled apart and racial tensions are at a higher level than they have been for 50 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
