See that is where you are wrong. I do know the details and I know that Steve had to be put in medical isolation due to the injuries he sustained. I also know that your nephew kept coming even after the gun was pulled. I am very sorry for your families loss please don't get me wrong on that but there is a time to stop fighting and that time was long past.

NO, I did NOT forget that my nephew was in a physical altercation with that "man". But what you don't know, that I do, is that after that "man" physically beat him down to the floor and "won" the fight, he did not call police first instead of point blank killing him.I had to look at his badly battered face and body at his wake. If that "man" really felt that "threatened" he could have simply held him at bay with his gun until police arrived instead of excercising his "natural killer instincts". Simple manners of that kind could have been resolved in a much easier way...many lives were affected by this, including that of his unborn child, but I suppose these are the ways of ill- tempered men. My nephew would have handled things more "manly", than this coward with a gun...Besides you know none of the specifics in the case.This article does not justify what really happened...you must really believe everything you read. Tsk.Tsk.

Did you forget that your nephew beat that man? Your nephew was the one who would not back down! It sounds to me like he only defended his own life!

Your comment was insensitive to members of my family...and I'm sure you would not be saying this to the faces of those who are mourning his loss.My nephew was killed by a coward and your smart-butt comments are rude and ignorant.

So, this is what you call tourism, right?
