Missouri man fatally shoots his mother at home after mistaking her for intruder
Jaylen Johnson charged with manslaughter after shooting death of his mother at their home’s back door in St Louis suburb
A 25-year-old Missouri man says he mistook his mother for an intruder before shooting her to death at their home’s back door.
Prosecutors have charged Jaylen Johnson with manslaughter and armed criminal action in connection with the shooting death on Thursday of his mother, Monica McNichols-Johnson.
McNichols-Johnson’s shooting death came less than a year after another shooting in Missouri saw Ralph Yarl, then 16, get shot on 13 April by 84-year-old Andrew Lester after ringing the wrong doorbell while picking up his siblings.
You're viewing part of a thread.
I'm not the one judging the value of their life. They are. What's the matter with you, could you see something bad happening to you? Is this a risk you've took?
So you deem yourself judge, jury and executioner?
You truly live in a lawless shithole if you think like that.
You're not listening. Stay the fuck out of peoples houses, you deserve everything you get, and it ain't the person lives there decided that, you did. "lawless shithole" sounds more like a place you can break n enter with near impunity.

We have a functional justice system where I live. Guilt and punishment is established in court in a fair trial, not by a random redneck with a gun. I know this must be a novel concept for you but I ensure you it is the civilized way to do it.
So, what you're saying is that you value a person's right to break into your home and do whatever they please far more than you value your person, your family and all of your property, because they might hypothetically be punished at some later date. I just hope if someone breaks into your home they're just looking for something to steal they can turn quick for drug money and not looking to do you and yours harm.
Your redneck with a gun scenario in the US is answered by the castle doctrine - the basic premise is that if someone is invading your home you hold the right to use deadly force to stop them. It's well known here, and it's not like you just accidentally do a home invasion. Stay out of other people's homes uninvited and it's not a problem.
What i’m saying is that a human life has more value than your worthless crap.

What scary is that you don’t see how fucking insane this is. Here (the Netherlands), you are only allowed to use ‘proportional violence’ in such cases. Go look up some crime statistics and compare which country is safer.

If someone enters your home in a place operating under the castle doctrine, then they're making the decision that your worthless crap is worth risking their life over. It's not like people just accidentally a home invasion.

Crime in the US is weird. "Which country is safer" is a bad metric because most of the US is as safe or safer, but certain parts are extremely dangerous. Like there are individual neighborhoods in Chicago that have 17x as many homicides per year as the capitol city of my state and more homicides per year than my hometown has had total since the Civil War. Most of the other big urban metros have similar areas.

So if your neighbour, who happens to have early stage undiagnosed dementia, wanders into your home you think it's a perfectly reasonable response to simply murder them? And no, this is not a hypothetical scenario. Plenty of people who found out they had dementia when they wandered somewhere they shouldn't be while in a state of confusion.
Why is your first reaction to fear for your life? What happend that made you so afraid? Or are you just a coward in general?
You're a thief or thief adjacent, and either don't understand the difference between correlation and causation or are hoping we don't.
You’re just a psycho who can’t wait to kill someone using self defense as an excuse.
Hope it's you when that happens.
Yes officer, this post right here.
Cmon. Break in to someone's house.
