GUNS DON'T KILL PEOPLE, OR DO THEY?

Al Sharpton should be by soon claiming that it was the vests fault and probably made by a white owned company.

Al's busy at the moment -- in NYC addressing the alleged racially-motivated choke-hold deaths at the hands of NYPD. Plus, I think he'd be satisfied with the charges on this one.

Mitchell (pictured below) was a married man with a baby. A married man with a baby, in his basement with two friends, getting drunk and stoned, and playing games with loaded guns -- taping it all as it went down.



Baltimore City State's Attorney's Office spokesman Mark Cheshire told Baltimore Sun city prosecutors sought the second-degree murder charge, but the court commissioner imposed an additional first-degree charge.

I'm sorry Mitchell died as a result of a stupid risky stunt. Sorry for him, his wife, his baby, his brother... But, I think Ramiro is being overcharged.

He's also facing a handgun charge -- that might have something to do with pushing for first-degree murder, but I agree with the prosecutors not the court commissioner. Mitchell chose to take the inherent risk in serving as a bullet target and invited himself to be shot at (even bragged about it in the video). Bad gamble. At most, Ramiro should be charged with second degree murder, in my opinion, based on what's been released.
