"Taco Bell Shooting Victim was Holding Leash, Not Weapon Victim's sister calling for shooter's arrest Updated: Wednesday, 04 Apr 2012, 5:12 PM MST Published : Wednesday, 04 Apr 2012, 3:38 PM MST LAVEEN - Police are saying more about a shooting at a Taco Bell Tuesday night in which one man died. They're also identifying the victim as 29-year-old Daniel Adkins. About 7:30 p.m., a 22-year-old man and his girlfriend ordered food at the Taco Bell drive-thru and were told to pull up while their order was prepared. At the same time, Adkins stepped around a corner into the path of the vehicle and angry words were exchanged between he and the driver. They got into an altercation and Adkins was shot once by the driver. He died at the scene. The driver, a 22-year-old black male, called police but has not been arrested. At first, the couple claimed that Adkins had a metal pipe that he swung at them -- but it turns out he was holding a dog leash with his yellow lab on the other end. Family members want that driver arrested, but he's claiming self-defense. "He needs to be behind bars. I'll never see my brother again," says sister Marina Reyes. "If he felt that my brother was threatening him, he could have easily just rolled up the window and called the cops.""

"Shot 'straight in the heart' The confrontation that would catapult two more families into the middle of the lethal force debate began as the sun dipped below the horizon in Laveen, Arizona, a suburb southwest of Phoenix. It was April 3 -- 37 days after Martin's death in Florida. Daniel Adkins Jr. walked past Taco Bell's drive-thru just as a 22-year-old man pulled around in his SUV to pick up his order. Sitting in the passenger seat was his pregnant fiancée. CNN is withholding the shooter's name because he has not been charged with a crime. A police report describes how the deadly confrontation unfolded. The driver slammed on the brakes, just missing Adkins. The two men exchanged words. The shooter told police that Adkins "air swung" his hands in the direction of the SUV, but acknowledged he never hit him or his vehicle. Still, he said, he was afraid of what Adkins might do with the weapon he believed he was carrying. Although a weapon was never found, the shooter described it as a 3-foot metal pipe or bat. 'Stand Your Ground' law under fire When Adkins lifted his hands in the air again, the driver drew his Smith and Wesson .40-caliber handgun from his sweatpants. He pointed the barrel at Adkins and racked the slide of the gun, putting a bullet in the chamber. Then he pulled the trigger. Struck in the chest, Adkins fell to the ground, face first, clutching Lady's leash. The lab stayed at her master's side, even as the life drained out of him. The shooter pulled around to the front of the Taco Bell as his fiancée called 911. He told police he had no choice but to shoot. He said he couldn't drive away from Adkins because the dog was in the way and he "thought he had no other options," according to the police report. While the shooter said he did not believe Adkins would have killed him and his fiancée had he not fired, he also said he feared Adkins was trying to hurt him."

I mean, WTF.

You could have stayed in your god damn car and waited on the cops.

This is ENTIRELY different than the Zimmerman case.

There was obviously some kind of physical altercation that caused Trayvon to be shot for whatever reason.

This guy was in the safety of his own car, the other guy was not armed, only swung at his car in the AIR, and the guy just hops out and shoots him.

Now this is a fucking outrage.


The fact that nobody is even talking about this, should be all the evidence that the entire reason anybody cared about the Zimmerman case was because of race.

don't be such a jealous girlfriend tacolu

seriously, join the club. i'll even spot you $50 on http://www.sharebuilder.com
you get these $5 free trades over time and i have a shit load saved up. dude it's easy. i started with barely over $1k on my first acct. that account is sitting at just over 4k now. yeh that one took over 6 years of work... but you just keep investing in things you feel are important and can make a profit. i have investments in tech (apple among them), energy(even solar firms, i love solar and think its obviously going to kill oil someday and i'm banking a lot on it), and even tesla and their electric cars. we aren't all billionaires. but if you start taking the streets chanting and trying to raise taxes on capital gains and other profits and threaten our way of life it really really gets on our nerves

i'm sure you'd understand

but yeh i'm just a white, racist, fox news, religious, homo-phobe constantly paranoid about everything around me so make sure you don't pay attn to any of this.

you just don't like to admit that the $x i have on the market right now is actually translating into paychecks going to some other family making brilliant products that are shaping our society that we all have a hand in! the beauty of it is i can pull it out at a decent rate and take care of myself when i'm in a jam. kind of like the opposite of a credit card. instead of negative money in a bank it's positive liquid that you don't owe shit too.

but that goes against your way of thinking. b/c of our 'superior' plane you shove us into, we automagically owe you everything. thanks.


oh this isn't my day job. i work as hard as the rest of you assholes, and get 95% of all my cash from slaving away daily like the rest of you. but i dont randomly believe my tuition should be free and some schmucks should just have to front the bill for every lazy asshole in this world. it breeds laziness. and i hate lazy people more than about anything. so yeh. maybe that explains it.

you know how pryderi hates conservatives for some random reason? i'm the same way with lazy assholes who refuse to get shit done.




also i really fucking want this car:


OMG NO WAI. A CONSERVATARD WANTING THAT? NAW MANG

OH and the best part is i have a plan to get one. i put around 5k into tesla and figured 'what the fuck', and that i'd let it grow until i decide i have enough to finance one or buy it. yeh it hasn't grown too much, but it HAS grown. so basically i'm building my own tesla, and fuck you if you dont have the same drive to do the same and want to tear down or tax the system to hell that makes this shit possible.
