Road rage? WTF is wrong with society now? Hope the police beat the everliving shite out of this a-hole. He's changed Will's kid lives forever.

So you wreck into someone and get pissed off enough to shoot them because YOU wrecked into them? Makes sense

Wasn't he shot in the driver's seat?

I don't know what they could do about a road rage incident. Nor the dysfunction that is pervasive in many families that leads to uncivilized individuals.
All they can do along with the DA and courts is tighten up to catch these folks and make sure offenders don't get out to do it again.
Which for new orleans would accomplish a great deal in some respects.

Except he was shot in the driver's seat from everything I've read.
Damn shame.

If it was road rage it could be possible it was self-defense and the guy took off. I only mention this because the guy who did the shooting was the one who caused the accident and why would the person who caused an accident start a fight and shoot people? If he had been the one that was crashed into I would get it but if you hit someone why would you feel the need to assault the person you ran into, ya know?

Stand your ground law is used as defense.
Any body want to lay down a premature line on this being the scenario?
Smith was killed in the driver's seat of his vehicle and his wife was shot while in the passenger's seat. Your theory isn't looking too hot.

And it seems like his wife was in the passenger seat and PT was in the back seat? The perp would've had to walk straight up to the driver's window to do that

Post last page said an altercation happened between the two before he was shot.
Smith may have gotten back in to call cops or get insurance, whatever.
I'm saying the shooter will try to lay out this scenario.

This makes my heart sick to see this. He was a fantastic representative of the New Orleans Saints. And now his kids are going to grow up without a dad. Depressing.
Road Rage is a powerful fricking thing and not something to take a chance on. It's why cruise control and disciplined and focused driving is your friend.

Exactly, this wasn't a "scared white boy" that walked toward confrontation. It was a limp dicked tPOS that had to prove how gangster he was.

Why? He didn't need to bring race into it but we all know things like this don't happen to white players in white neighborhoods so there is no need to ban him.
No, they typically don't. But using it as a soap box is also BS--just as much as if Obama uses Sandyhook as a stump for gun control--there's no need for the politicking.
As for the area, my friend lived there for a year on St Mary's. We never had any problems. It wasn't the best area. Maybe it's because the neighborhood collectively thought, "damn, those must be some crazy fricking white boy's." Regardless, I never felt insecure walking around those streets.
even so, I hope it was just a random act as opposed to a Steve McNair type situation. RIP. Terrible news.

If that were the case (which it isnt)
1) The guy could've stayed in his Hummer
2) If he was in enough danger to shoot someone, he could've just popped it into reverse and left

I would like to think that having MPs posted everywhere/ patrolling constantly would help deter something like this.
They would definitely be on scene faster than a NOLA cop

Whoever did this is going to get murdered tomorrow morning in OPP

Tough thread to read through, OP to up to present. Nothing to add but thoughts and prayers to the family. What a sad story. What a mess.
