QuoteAn autopsy report on a 19-year-old woman, who was shot and killed on a front porch in Detroit, determined that she was shot in the face, and a medical examiner ruled her death a homicide Monday.
Renisha McBride was shot on Nov. 2 with "no evidence of close range discharge," according to a report released by the Wayne County Medical Examiner.
McBride's family said that she had gotten into a car accident and was shot by a man whose house she approached in an attempt to seek help. The external portion of the autopsy report said McBride's clothing was wet.
interesting enough so far, but WAIT!
QuoteThe 54-year-old homeowner's lawyer, Cheryl Carpenter, told The Detroit News that her client woke up in the middle of the night fearing someone was trying to break into his house.
Because home intruders knock on the door. Especially when they are 19 year old girls who weigh 90 pounds soaking wet.
The victim was Black. The shooter is not.
Wait for it...
Wait for it...
QuoteProsecutors told the Associated Press they're investigating further to determine whether or not to charge the 54-year-old man.
So now you know who the dangerous people in Detroit are. 54 year old bigots and a legal system that has to investigate whether or not shooting a 19 year old girl in the face for knocking on your door for help is something that charges should be filed over.
This is going to make the Florida business look clean and above-board, mark my words.
So fucking fucked up. Poor fucking kid.

Yeah, and I can't wait to hear the "stand your ground" pricks start defending this shit.
It's unmitigated bullshit. Shooting someone for knocking on your door while black is murder, plain and simple. Shooting a soaking-wet 19-year-old-girl is impossible to justify.

So was shooting a young man for going to the store, if you think about it.
Within a week, we'll hear about how this young lady was a thug of some kind, on account of she tried marijuana.

Yep. Guaranteed. She was
black, after all. But this isn't a race issue, of course, and we should stop trying to turn it into one like bad people; he would have shot a little white girl in the face too. Naturally.
Halloween at this dudes house must be fucking carnage! :eek:
Given the demographics in Detroit, I wouldn't like to be there if the guy walks. After the scale of the Trayvon marches I'd expect this guy to get nailed to the wall ASAP to try and keep that shit quiet.
Kind of expecting Zimmerman to show up in this soon too. Fucker's been useless at keeping a low profile and there must be a dozen news outlets begging for a soundbite.
The news report I read this morning made it clear they are charging the fuckwit. His claim was that he "accidentally" discharged (in her face). The tone of the article made it sound as if they're mulling over slapping the moron with a charge for base stupidity or pance wetting racism.
STAND YOUR GROUND!
She totally was asking for it! She knows this is OUR neighborhood. You think the shooter will commit suicide?
