A man was gunned down because kids were bored and had a gun???
I am beginning to change my mind about gun ownership. But not about people working so they won't be BORED.
What kind of world is this becoming?

I wish it were a new trend, but it is not and your concern about the media is well founded.
This death and the motivation behind it deserves as much scrutiny as other cases but this death will not get it. It will be a minor story for a day or so and then go away. Do not be swayed by outrage because mostly it is politically motivated.
This deserves as much discussion as recent big news killings but it will not even touch it...no political gain to be had.
