“Disrespected”
By Mitch Berg
As I pointed out a few weeks back, people who use the word “Disrespect” as a verb are nothing but trouble.
Ripped from the headlines? Proof (with emphasis added):
Aloeng K. Vang, 19, of St. Paul, told police that he shot Jeffrey T. Elling as the victim answered the door of his home in the 1400 block of York Avenue, according to a second-degree murder charge filed Tuesday against Vang in Ramsey County District Court.
The men had argued a short time earlier after Vang allegedly turned onto Elling’s street at a high rate of speed, nearly striking Elling and his girlfriend as they crossed York Avenue. At the time, Vang was headed to a cousin’s house on the same block — a residence where people had driven recklessly before, the charges say.
During the altercation, Elling pushed Vang to the ground, and Vang, who had appeared to be intoxicated, felt disrespected…Initially, Vang, who turned himself in to police at the scene, told authorities he been driving around in an effort to cool off.
He later admitted, however, that he had gone to his house to get a gun, according to the complaint. He rang Elling’s doorbell, hid behind a tree and then fired two shots when Elling answered, Vang told police.
He added he didn’t mean to shoot Elling, only to scare him.
“I should have just whooped [him],” the charges quote Vang as saying.
Once people use the term “disrespect” as a verb, we should just through them in jail to protect whomever they might hurt in the meantime.

Isn’t The Regime’s plan to strike Mrs. Assad’s shoe closet pretty much that same action as Vang took…

Not only do we have the “disrespecting” of someones credibility aka ‘red line’, but also the hiding behind a tree or rather the Sixth Fleet while someone tosses shells at Assad when he answers the bunker door bell.

Is that Vang from the Hampton’s Vangs?

second-degree murder charge
Who is handling this case? Barney Fife? Vang went home to retrieve a MAC10 and then planned a murder!

He told the prosecutor that his original intent was to go home and get a paper bag full of dog feces, some lighter fluid, and a book of matches. He only grabbed the MAC10 after his dog refused to cooperate.

You mean Vang’s own dog disrespected him? Poor puppy. Well then, for sure Vang’s animal cruely charges will far surpass a slap on the wrist he is going to get for a 2nd degree murder conviction. All’s well.

Well put.
An old saying was that if you choose to shoot a person, make sure your shot doesn’t pass through him and accidentally hit a timber wolf.
