It is not my fault that your attempt to provide a thought-provoking article was a complete failure.

There are two primary sources who have stated the man's intent: he was motivated to shoot the child out of racial animus.

Even now you carry his water, why?

Now that might be an interesting article: you informing us how you became to the point in your life that you are willing to die on the hill of defending a grown man who shot an unarmed child looking for his younger children.

I think I might be fascinated by such a story. The pity I have for you might even evolve into sympathy.
