Well did the kid show the gun (and/or point it) or not? I guess the jury thought he did? If he didn't, then frick the store owner. If he did, then bravo to the store owner.
You’re part of the problem

It is completely illogical to assume the store owner shot the kid if he never knew the kid was carrying a firearm
Exactly and how many times has he encountered young black shoplifters and not shot them? Probably hundreds.
Reality is that the prosecution overcharged. Consensus seems to be that if they had gone for manslaughter they could have gotten a verdict and possibly a 30 year sentence.

And why tf does a 14 year old have a gun?
That's the true problem here but cultcha doesn't ever seem to want to address that.

How could the prosecution possibly make that claim?
The same way they proclaimed Trayvon Martin was "in fear" too.

Not familiar with the case, but how did the prosecutors know whether the deceased pointed his gun or not?
Check out what the prosecution team looked like, bottom of the picture. That’s why

If this happened once every two weeks, there would be far less of "this happened"!!!

The store owner claimed the 14-year-old pointed the gun at his son. The prosecutors say that never happened.

Don’t care about the details. Anytime one of these goes down it’s a plus for society.

Why was he carrying a gun? Why is he roaming town by himself? Where were his parents?
This is the natural consequence of popping out kids that you don't plan to raise. If you don't hold your kids accountable when they're 5, someone will hold them accountable when they're 15.
Save your courtroom tears, mama. You failed your son, and you have no one to blame but yourself.

Should he have been shot, probably not but prosecutors overcharged the Asian store owner and the jury basically told prosecutors to f-off.
That makes sense, because based on stout's post, I didn't understand how the guy was found not guilty.

Its also today's culture in the US. Afraid to shoot a black person for anything, even if your loved ones are threatened for fear of just this.....3 years in prison.
Blacks know this and makes them incredibly bold, heck even if they are caught they wont serve anytime and if someone tries to shoot me, we gonna burn the place down, bankrupt you and send you to prison.

I keep reading "was shot in the back" was he or not. If he was wouldnt the report say "a coroner found the boy was shot in the back". So was he or wasnt he?

Hell no, he was shot in the forehead.

the prosecution is saying that the kid had a gun but never brandished it... Chow is saying the kid pulled the gun on his son.
In other words, the thugling did in fact brandish the gun unless the prosecution proves beyond a reasonable doubt that he didn’t. Which they didn’t.

Because he is part of the 2% of 13%.

Let's ignore the obvious question, why does a 14 year old have a handgun walking around in public?

BTW ... prosecutors went for the jugular. That's why they lost this case.
That 14 year old was no saint.
Did "fatigue" possibly be partially or wholly responsible for this verdict? Perhaps, public sentiment is turning?

Kid was armed, prosecutors over charged.
Sentiment seems to be that Chow would have been convicted of a lesser charge.
