Prestoff 04/13/18 8:14:48 PM #151:	CableZL posted... According to this from the local news coverage, the kid was indeed heading in the correct general direction of his school. He probably just turned down a street, felt like he wasn't heading exactly in the right direction any more, and decided to ask some people for help. If he walked relatively straight from where he missed the bus in this photo, he would have been cutting through some woods. Not hard to see how he thought he was lost. Thanks for this, I admit I was part of the "he doesn't know how to get to his school?" crowd, but that picture puts everything into context. He was on the correct path and wanted to verify if he was going the right way to the school. Even then, there's absolutely no justification for this kid to be shot at. I mean if the couple gets away with such shit like this, surely the government won't have a problem of me doing this to every Jehovah Witness or Seventh Day Adventist that goes to my front door. --- It's what all true warriors strive for! <cite>Prestoff posted [p:899612994] in Black teen...

I know during my high school days the route the bus took to go to my high school involved the highway where it wouldn't take pedestrians so you couldn't use that route to walk to school.

My sister has a terrible sense of direction; despite having been driven some place several times, she herself had no idea how to drive herself there after getting her license & car.

The victim in this matter, a 14-year-old child, indicated what had happened to the police and his version did bear out on that video, he said. The video was taken from Zeiglers home security system. Zeigler attempted to give an account of the events Friday at his court appearance which was via video from the county jail. Theres a lot more to the story than whats being told and I believe that will come out in court, he told Judge Julie Nicholson. I was in bed yesterday morning and my wife came screaming and crying. ...

monkeysRfunny 04/14/18 9:35:38 AM #200:	I knew how to get to my high school, and I moved during my Junior year. Although that was before Google maps, so I guess kids had a better sense of direction. But does this mean that the kid didn't have a computer at home to map out a route first? Or on the off chance that he didn't, couldn't he have asked a neighbor before departing, or gone into some store to ask someone for directions if he didn't think of that beforehand? Shooting at a kid is stupid, don't get me wrong. But knocking on a random stranger's door is the last thing I would do if I'm lost considering the other alternatives. --- The story of your fighting is a poem of two words: you suck. <cite>monkeysRfunny posted [p:899636868] in Black teen...
