If the article is to be believed, it might depend on the neighborhood and what they are watching for.

What is not something "to be believed"?

I don’t understand your question.

You think maybe they were on the lookout for a crazy person with a gun who would shoot at them for no reason?

What???!!

 

[PeachyKeane]

What???!!

Do you think maybe they were on the lookout for a crazy person with a gun who was just going to shoot at them for no reason?

The homeowners who are part of the neighborhood watch?

The homeowners who are part of the neighborhood watch?

Yes.

 

[Hammster]

Yes.

I don’t know. Do you?

Are you imagining that they might be on the lookout for a crazy person with a gun who was just going to shoot at them for no reason?

I don’t understand your question.

If the article is to be believed implies something may be false, what are you saying that may be false?

No.

I have no idea what may be false. I assume it’s true, but without the official report, we may be missing something.

I know I just assume the black kid was trying to rob them.

My mistake, Zeigler's wife called the cops because they thought he was robbing them.

It's the only reasonable explanation.

I’m not sure why you’d assume that. Seems racist.

Mmhmm, shouldn't the police reviewing the homeowner's surveillance video, making an arrest, and telling news agencies what the homeowner did was wrong and they will pursue the harshest charges possible be enough?

Most likely, yes.

Is there a more likely explanation? Why else would this wholesome white couple start shooting at him?

You’re the one who said you’d assume he was there to rob. Why would you assume that?

 

[PeachyKeane]

There's no other plausible explanation.

 

[Hammster]

There's no other plausible explanation.

I hope a black kid never knocks on your door.
