Wow, what a piece of shit. I'm glad he get to rot behind bars.

How can anyone feel good after shooting a kid? That guy's remorseless.

How can anyone shoot anyone leaving thier home after making a wrong turn. There was no threat here. Nothing to "defend". He got what he deserved. Should feel extreme shame. Worst part is he still had better aim than cops.
