Interesting. You demand that the issue be discussed based upon facts, and then promptly create information, that has not been in the news, nor alluded to by anything other than RW types. The facts of the case as I understand it.
A long running dispute between neighbors. Not uncommon. YouTube is full of videos of neighborhood Karens losing their minds over anything.
On the day of the shooting. The kids who were playing in a lot next door to Karens house, crossed over the corner of her yard. There was a big court case in Texas where people had the right to cut the corner on private property to reach state property. Normally there are routes put in called Easements. A road or trail through property, say yours, which you must leave accessible to others. Sometimes these are used for utilities, as one example. You own the land, but they get to use it.
The woman in question threw something, and struck the foot of one of the children. That is assault. I’ve seen conflicting reports on if the shooter took something inside. However, thrown object is a near certainty.
Susan Louise Lorincz, 58, who is white, was arrested on charges of manslaughter with a firearm, culpable negligence, battery and two counts of assault in the death of Ajike Owens, a Black mother of four.

Ok, so the facts are a neighborhood feud. Ok. The Shooter threw something at a child. Let’s be honest. If it was your child you would demand to know why your kid was struck. If it was justified, you might side with the person doing the striking, if not, you would demand at the very least an apology wouldn’t you?
Neighbors who were talked to by the Police, and Press, none of them said the kids were a problem. Including White People who were interviewed.
Lauren Smith, 40, lives across the street from where the shooting happened. She was on her porch that day and saw one of Owens’ young sons pacing, and yelling, “They shot my mama, they shot my mama.”
She ran toward the house, and started chest compressions until a rescue crew arrived. She said there wasn’t an altercation and that Owens didn’t have a weapon.
“She was angry all the time that the children were playing out there,” Smith said. “She would say nasty things to them. Just nasty.” Smith, who is white, described the neighborhood is family friendly.
The shooting took place through a closed door. The person who was shot was unarmed. A closed and locked door separated them. It is hard to claim self defense when the baddie can’t actually get to you isn’t it?
So the problem appears to be the Shooter. The problem in the neighborhood anyway.
So going by the facts that we have so far. And I readily admit there may be more to come, I’d have to continue with my earlier statements. This shooting was not justified. Not in any way, shape, or form.
Now, using the facts that are available, explain your position that it was a good thing.
