Carol M. Swain asks:

I am appalled no one important seems to be concerned about the legal rights and protection of #AndrewLester, the 84-year-old man who shot what he thought was an intruder and immediately called 911. If he had wanted to kill #RalphYarl, I believe he would have fired more bullets.

"I would like knowledgeable people from Kansas City to tell us what is being done to protect Mr. Lester and to ensure him a fair trial. Does he have a reputable law firm representing him and are the police protecting his home?"

Tim adds:

Amen! This thing smells to me. Lester clearly felt threatened. Indeed he would have fired more bullets had he been trying to kill the kid (and then dragged him inside so the castle doctrine would apply.) Almost all of the public infomration is coming from the boy and the boy's attorney - Benjamin Crump, the race hustling sleazebag who shows up whenever there is a shooting and who represented both the Brown family in Ferguson and Trayvon Martin's family.And they keep calling this kid an "honor student" which is reminiscent of the Bonfire of the Vanities. I suspect they are using an old picture of him, too, to make him look younger. They need another racial outrage to get the blacks back on the Democrat plantation and to hidesome vicious assaults by blacks on whites recently. Victim status must always be refreshed. So they are going to make a scapegoat out of this old guy, and he'll have little legal protection.
