Teen squeegee worker Tavon Scott is found guilty of manslaughter
for shooting dead Timothy Reynolds, 48, after he charged at him
with baseball bat when he tried to wash his car windows aged 14
Tavon Scott shot Timothy Reynolds multiple times in July 22 when
he was 14
He was acquitted of murder but convicted of voluntary manslaughter
. . .
Huh ???
If somebody is about to knock your brains out
with a bat - SHOOT THEM !!! More than enough
justification there ! Deadly weapon is
deadly weapon ! Nutters are nutters.
Now there's PROBABLY more TO this than the
little story mentions. What did Reynolds do
that PROMPTED the ballbat attack ??? I really
doubt somebody just randomly decided to
exterminate a squeegee guy (though maybe a
few THINK about it ...)
In any case, the deadly action seems to have been
initiated by the ballbat guy. DROP charges !
If you're gonna get hyper-violent over a NON-
life-threatening event ... well ... maybe you
should get shot. YOU are the thug. "Justice"
is a matter of BALANCE - proper tit for tat.
This is why we have JUDGES - to hear, think
and JUDGE. The "AI"s ain't gonna be much good
at that. People are too weird.
