of course not. but if stealing parts or entire cars, and then threatening or attacking someone who caught or interrupted him, then perhaps yes he may have set his own death in motion. but none of us seem to know what actually happened so it's all speculation at this point.
****No, of course not, if they were just out at 0400 - but you left out a detail or two...
Engaging in purported criminal behavior at 0400 does increase someone's odds of facing consequences, sometimes severe, and yes in this example I am blaming the "victim".
He should not be dead, and he would likely not have been dead if he had not made some very bad decisions that day. Crime doesn't always pay, and it looks like that kid paid a big price for his alleged criminal behavior.
This is as much dignity I'm giving your response...
A man looked out his window and saw a yute walking around. He checked his watch and said “by golly, it’s 0400!!!…I’ll kill that rat bastard!!!” Then he shot him.
Is this what you think happened?

I don't think it is possible to not have a major civil disturbance . They can try to influence the When. , but the IF has already left the building .
That’s how I read it in the papers…
Hand’s up don’t shoot.
Ice Tea and Skittles in a hoodie.
I can’t breath,
Crime does not pay, period.****No, of course not, if they were just out at 0400 - but you left out a detail or two...

That's the message that needs to be sent to all "youts"
Bernie Madoff got his in the end, and his family, and so on.
A youngster is better off schlepping for decades with honest work than going for the criminal brass ring. That message is lacking from parents and family for more than a few. Sad.
There are a lot of examples of hard work paying off:
Look at the president, he...
Look at Pelosi she,...
Hunter Biden...
LOL, regardless; hard work does pay off and criminal acts are the road to ruin.
That message, really needs to be pushed out.

Applicable DC code section:
24-2340. Issuance or Denial.
2340.1 The Chief shall issue a license to carry a concealed pistol or provide a written denial of the application within a reasonable time after receiving a completed application. A reasonable period of time shall normally be within ninety (90) days; however, the time may be extended by the Chief for an additional ninety (90) days where there is good cause for additional time to complete the investigation and the applicant is so notified in writing.
We’ll see if they go that route…

I had a personal story to add but it was long and at the end of the day the gist was when my car was vandalized :
The police came, took a report, and told me 'juvenile crime is not a priority'. I asked some questions that I feel foreshadowed what the homeowner in the shooting incident must have felt.. I asked 'how can I detain the individual if I he returns to carry out his threat?'. Answer : You cannot citizens arrest a juvenile. If you're attacked by the juvenile you cannot use 'pepperspray-mace-taser-stungun-nightstick-pr24-batton- [i asked]. You cannot handcuff [plastic or traditional], hogtie, restrain-using-wrestling or impede the retreat of that individual. DC says you can ONLY CALL 911 ... So in the midst of confrontation if it goes bad, according to the female patrol officer, you are the problem because

Truly daft to compare the TM incident to this incident. Freedom includes the freedom to make daft statements.
The comparison was with the idiotic and biased portrayal by the media. Not with any details of the actual cases.
Daft?? Try to be kind.
I’m sensitive.
Note to self:
If you don’t want to die, don’t steal cars
Got it
If you don’t want to die, don’t steal cars
Got it
And as a civilized society we evolved and realized that was wrong…
Depends on the definition of evolve.
Recidivism rates were very low back then.
Recidivism rates were very low back then.
Only one segment evolved and is now realizing that was wrong...
