ONE-SIDED TRIAL

In all this publicity of the Kim Walker trial, is anyone thinking of
James Hayward? Since the shooting people have called James "scum that
deserved to die."

I knew James, he had a drug problem but he was not a monster who
forced drugs onto others. He was not out patrolling the town looking
for new people to sell drugs to or coercing people into using drugs.

Kim Walker forced his way into James' home and shot him five times
while his [Walker's] daughter watched, and this guy is being called a
hero? I cannot believe the amount of people in society who are saying
that Walker's behavior was justified.

The responsibility has been put solely on James. What about Jadah's
responsibility? She chose to use drugs and to be with James yet she
is portrayed as an innocent little victim.

There were other options for Walker and his daughter, like
intervention that did not include murder. Countless numbers of people
claim they would have done the same as Walker, as any good parent
would but what if James Hayward was your son?
