Home invasion shooting?

It will be interesting to see how this plays out. I will have close information as time goes on. I’ve dealt with the deceased a LOT in the past. My kid’s school is within sight of the shooting scene.

Thankfully, I have training in Queens today.

They say not in his nature time will tell or maybe just another misguided youth

I find it amusing when you read the comments sections of these stories. There's always people saying the deceased was a sweet kid or hard worker who would never do such things. If this holds true as the story leads and he was breaking into the home, I'll be interested to see if the DA presses charges on the homeowner if he legally owned the firearm. NY's messed up laws and all......

And this will go down as a school shooting, somehow.

Where in queens, Im stationed in astoria for a while.

From the article:

“He was a 19-year-old trying to find himself," she said."

Not quite "turning his life around" but close. At 4 AM he found himself screwing with the wrong guy.

Why is the homeowner in custody if no charges have been filed?

Fuck the both of them then.
In really hate that people are rioting over unworthy scum like this, like in Memphis. It is an injustice of the highest order, particularly when victims that are deserving of this martyrdom fade into forgotten obscurity.

Wouldn't being a drug dealer make him a felon?
Felons are barred from ownership of firearms are they not? Why are regular citizens put to the screws when criminals are not?

He would have had to have been convicted of something previously, which is unclear in the thread, at least.

But can you be a felon if you haven't yet been convicted?

If he is a known dealer why hasn't he been charged and convicted of such.
To be clear I am an advocate of of making very little illegal but punishing that which is extremely harshly, draconian even.
I despise that criminals are allowed to operate while others look the other way.

Knowing, and proving, can be 2 very different things.

He lied on the 4473.

Just got the final word.

Apparently he was a weed dealer. Arrested for the weed and the shotgun and another gun, both modified so technically “firearms” in NYS. But he’s not being charged with the homicide. Done deal.
