He wadn’ no crinimal. He wuza good kid

People who wouldn’t recognize truth if it reached up and slapped them upside the head.

Background: Three men rob a convenience store in Reading, Pa.

“The armed men took cash, cigarettes and lottery tickets before exiting the store. Outside they were confronted by the concerned citizen who told them not to move and that he was calling police.

“Adams said a struggle ensued and the suspects took out their weapons. The citizen, however, was also armed and fired at the suspects.

“The suspects were both shot in the chest and died at the scene.

“Police took the armed citizen in for questioning, but after reviewing video of the incident and speaking with a number of witnesses, authorities released the man.

“Adams said the shooter was very cooperative. The man had a license to carry, and since he was threatened at gunpoint, no charges are expected to be filed.”

Police later arrested the driver of the get-away car and charged him with second-degree murder.

Relatives of the dead yoots:

“Further, family members are calling for justice for the two dead criminals, you know the guys who were shot after they pulled their guns out first when they were confronted by a good guy.

“’It’s not fair,’ said Virginia Medina, mother of 24-year-old William Medina, who police said robbed Krick’s Korner store alongside 18-year-old Robert De Carr on Monday.

“The two men were shot and killed by a private citizen while leaving the store, and family members want to see charges pressed.

“’[William] had no right to lose his life over something that man could have called the police for,’ said Medina. ‘He took the law into his own hands and walked away scot-free.’

“’How about if people just start running around here, policing the city on their own? How much worse is it going to get?’ said Peter Ratel, Medina’s cousin.

“The family members said they are hurt by comments suggesting the alleged robbers were ‘thugs.’

“According to Medina, William was ‘no big hard criminal’ and was rather a family-man who loved his young daughter.

“Robert De Carr was described similarly by his sister, Taylor De Carr.

“’My brother was a good kid,’ she told 69 News.”

(It just isn’t fair that a young man who was not a big time criminal, a man who loved his daughter, should be shot after (1) pulling a gun to rob a store; and, (2) pulling his gun again when a citizen tried to stop the criminals. No, it’s just not fair.)
