    Bro, you’re not going to get anywhere with “it’s the law!”. We know that, clearly, we’re saying it’s fucking stupid. Yes rico, though I think most people would agree.

    We have a law that’s lesser and used in states without felony murder called negligent homicide, that’s literally what the article is about… It’s what we’re talking about and have been the entire time …

    Yeah that isn’t a thing, the jury doesn’t care when it comes to felony murder because that isn’t an aspect of it, that’s the point.

    No they had been on a string of robberies, I haven’t seen reference to a violent robbery aside from the one the officers interrupted which only turned violent once the police arrived. So yes context matters, agreed.

      Okay well stealing gun isnt a felony, so no felony murder. Almost like theres limitations to the law. The issue I take with this post is the example used is deceptive. If this was meant to be an honest debate then they wouldnt leave out so many details. I even disagree with applying felony murder in some cases, but this isnt one of them.

      When I said it was settled logic I meant the basis of it hasnt changed for a while. I don’t really see how people don’t understand that people can act as a group.

      The person this post is about surely deserves some time in prison for what happened. Even if it was just the home invasion charge he could have gotten 20 years. This person will be in prison for a long time for multiple crimes besides this one.

        Yes it is, what are you talking about, depending on the firearm it’s a federal crime. They didn’t leave it details, you haven’t read them. This one case you didn’t bother to read about is the one that didn’t sit well with ya, good to know.

        I don’t care, you bullshit excuse is the same shit that enabled shit like Jim Crow and the thirteenth amendment not actually banning slavery.

        They deserve a punishment for the crime they knowingly participated in, yes. It wasn’t home invasion, neither home was occupied. In fact iirc the house the shooting happened in was abandoned at the time. Sure, so let’s pile on a bullshit charge to a 15 yr old, totally sane and logical huh?

                Talking down to me only works if you were right once this whole time and ya ain’t been.

                Try that before the dipshit attitude.

                    Again, the attitude only works if you’ve been right at all. Being the lippy dumb guy who can’t be bothered to read the article but insists on spewing his shitty hypocritical fucking opinion isn’t a good look Internet stranger.
