I guess the Wilson's Liquor store shooting set a precedence. (Actually I am aware of several similar cases in the past, but that one is probably the most identifiable in recent years. ) Both cases involve young black males, both case have 2 subjects trying to rob and elderly person, Wilson was black and Jackson is white, Wilson was a store owner being robbed on the way to his car and Jackson was in his home with his wife. There is a huge difference between a home invasion/robbery and a street robbery. There is a huge difference in the mentality of protecting your money and possibly your life and protecting the sanctity of the home and family and your life.

Wilson was praised by local activists. I wonder when they will come out in support of Jackson? You can't have your cake and eat it too Louis....
