I watched a couple of epis of GLOW - it was not good. Mercifully I now have wifi and have started watching Justified on Prime TV. Much more in keeping with ne and my people, other than the fact that IT WAS FILMED IN CALI-FREAKIN-FORNIA!!!

"Relatives Of Killed 17-Year-Old Home Invader: How Else Is He 'Gonna Get His Money'?"

I heard about this story on Rush yesterday...
Relatives of a teenaged home invader who was killed by a homeowner while seemingly exiting the home he had broken into are asking observers to consider the mentality of children “raised in the hood.”
17-year-old Trevon Johnson was shot and killed after the 54-year-old woman homeowner was alerted to his crime via a home surveillance system. After arriving at her home, she witnessed Johnson exiting a window of her house. There was then a confrontation in which Johnson was shot once. Police arrived on the scene within seconds and applied CPR. After being rushed to the hospital, Johnson was pronounced dead.
Seemingly justifying her relative’s commission of burglary...
“You have to understand, you have to look at it from a child's point of view that was raised in the hood. How he gonna get his money to have clothes to go to school?" asked Harris.
"I don't care if she have her gun license, her rights, or any of that,” said Harris. “That is way beyond law. Way beyond."
Speaking of what she described as Johnson’s bright future, Harris said her cousin loved education and learning.
"He was not supposed to die like this. He had a future ahead of him. Trevon had goals. He was very big on education. He loved going to school. He loved learning,” added Harris.
