Bike thief gets shot....

Dude steals a bike and bike owner shoots him. Advocate writes article about how virtuous and wonderful the bike thief was. No discussion about the dude who got his bike stolen. Not saying he should have shot the guy...but why is the paper spinning articles about how wonderful the thief was??? Sheesh.

Stealing a bike is shitty thug behavior, no excuse for that. However, I don't think chasing down someone who stole your bike, shooting them in the head and leaving them on the street to die is a proportionate response.

Welp, someone's going to go to jail for a long time over a bike.

True...and he should. But I dont get glorifying a bike thief either.

I was going to post this yesterday and then realized no one here would be surprised at The Advocate publishing this piece. Not to be cruel but a thief was killed and thebcrime victim has been charged with 2nd degree murder. Something is wrong here.
Especially the family saying how the shooter should have just called the police and let the crime happen. These are the same people who don’t think the police should ever chase criminals either.

Is this what NBR has become? Seems like something one would say if living in South Central Los Angeles, not Baton Rouge....

Most newspapers won't publish articles admonishing the dead.
Also included in the headline is...
which is definitely true and part of the point.

Why do teenage boys steal girl’s bikes? It always fascinates me to see it when I’m

Correct, he should have shot him in the guts and enjoyed a much longer show.
all thieves need killing.

that was the last bike he ever stole....

If there’s a lesson to be learned from this it’s to truly ride it like you stole it.
The bike owner was tired of watching “Gone with the Schwinn”?

I just dislike how the alternative of not stealing someone's bike is never discussed.
Stupid to shoot someone in the head over taking your bike though.
