You just say you are out to get some morning coffee. That seems to work...

Why do you think the red truck guy was there at that time of day.

Wasn't it 7 am?

Some of yall are acting like 7 am is the wee hours of the morning and nothing good ever happens at 7 am.
Or they simply refuse to believe that the victims were truly innocent and that the initial description of the shooter was an honest mistake? To them it's unfathomable that a black woman could be out early getting coffee with kids in tow. There has to be another reason that would make the victims partially to blame for what happened to them.

No, it's not unfathomable to most folks here. It's the fact that "get whitey" was instantly brought into the mix that makes everybody question everything, especially when the actual facts come out and mean old evil white devil wasn't even involved in the first place.

And here come the passive aggressive posts about racism because some people dare question the story put out by a known race baiting liar! About time these people showed up.

The knee jerk racialist narrative is tiresome in all its iterations.

I think most people aren't assuming bad things because of race. I think it's just human nature to want these horrific things to be explained away by the victims being somewhat to blame, otherwise it makes it a more scary world where you can simply be out minding your own business and doing nothing wrong and have someone pull up and shoot up your family filled car because of something stupid like mistaking it for another car.

Anyone driving around on the weekend at 7 am is up to no good, especially with children in the car. It's definitely drug related eye roll / SMH

I'm glad the two Bstards we're caught - iconic that suspect #2 was in jail Saturday for drug charges and the first suspect got busted with drugs at the traffic stop. Such winners all the way around.

There's some fair criticism here, and I deserve some of it.

For me, I was upset initially that this looked like a hate crime. I do think there is such a thing as institutional racism, real bias (though not necessarily malicious) in how cops treat blacks, etc. I'm no bleeding heart liberal but I think there are real issues that should be dealt with.

However, when the real story was so wildly different than what had been portrayed it is natural to ask why and wonder if there are nefarious reasons. It was jarring. I did also wonder about their location so far from home on a coffee errand.

But you're right - hopefully this is just an honest case of mistaken identity and they were innocent victims.

This is the kind of scum who makes me question my moral values and rethink death by firing squad.

I view it as replacing evil with death. And the world is immediately a better place when he is gone.

Wow. I can't imagine why anybody would ever think the mom was buying drugs. Must just be racists because she was black.

W&J talked about this on the radio this morning. Apparently mommy knew one (possibly both) of the shooters - were friends on facebook and everything. The morning of the shooting, she took the time after the shooting to go to her facebook page and unfriend him and try to scrub any evidence of a connection.

Not sure if this is their theory or not, but it was supposedly a drug by where momma decided to drive off without paying, and they shot not knowing she had a car full of kids with her.

If all of that proves to be true, Q10, his type, and the media will be sure to not pay attention to those details as hard as possible when this goes to trial.

Do they have facts to back this up? Or just the hearsay that everyone else has? I've yet to see anyone provide any facts to back up all the rumors flying around that everyone seems so certain about.

Don't have a clue, which is why I put the "don't know if this their theory or not" in there.

All sides of this made wrong guesses.

The Sheriff was on TV this weekend explaining it.

It was a mistaken identity. The killers thought it was someone they got into a fight with at a club the night before. The Police found the mom to be innocent of any wrongdoing. Shaun King, as repugnant as he is, was the source of the tip that lead to capture of the killers.

To sum this thread up black on black violence was blamed on whitey? Is that right?

Pretty much. Then as soon as it was discovered another black guy did the shooting the story went away because the race pimps can't make money from black on black violence. They need the white man to get their pay check.

You left out the part where everyone victim shamed the mother because she had her kids out at the wee hour of 7 am.
