OKLAHOMA CITY (Reuters) - Three teenage boys were charged in the killing of an Australian university student in Oklahoma "for the fun of it," prosecutors said on Tuesday

Christopher Lane, of Melbourne, was found dead of a gunshot wound on Friday, according to police in Duncan, Oklahoma, about 80 miles south of Oklahoma City.

Charged with first-degree murder are Chancey Allen Luna, 16, and James Francis Edwards Jr., 15. Michael Dewayne Jones, 17, who allegedly drove the vehicle carrying the other suspects, was charged with use of a vehicle in the discharge of a weapon and accessory to murder after the fact, according to the Stephens County District Attorney's office.

Police said Jones named Luna as the gunman.

Lane was out jogging during a visit to his girlfriend and her family in Duncan on Friday, when he was shot in the back, police said. He attended East Central University in Ada, Oklahoma, where he was on a baseball scholarship.

According to police, Jones admitted that the teens decided to kill someone "for the fun of it."

Children these days are being brought up in a world in which human life holds very little value, and the pursuit of immediate pleasure reigns supreme.

Exactly. If that were the case we'd be enjoying 24/7 Trayvon-style media coverage. I haven't heard the president weighing in on this one yet either.

One kids fat sister blames society for not "doing enough" with kids today. Gag me.
One kids dad thinks his son has no idea what he did. I think HE's to stupid to understand/denial.

...and the Austrailians as a group, we're told, are blaming the guns (mission accomplished - no need for the boy king to chime in now).

I agree with Taps idea, but I think the event should be televised.

Unfortunately, the EPA would never allow it. There'd be too much air pollution.

One of three teens charged in the 'thill kill' of an Australian college student in Oklahoma last week has previously posted racist tweets on his Twitter account, according to a report.

The Daily Caller reported that the tweets belonged to James Francis Edwards, 15. One tweet from his account reads, "90% of white ppl are nasty. #HATE THEM." Another post read, "Ayeee I knocced out 5 woods since Zimmerman court!:)"

The Daily Caller's report noted that 'woods' is used as a derogatory term for white people.


Edwards and friend Chancey Allen Luna, 16, were both charged with first-degree murder as adults Tuesday and are being held without bond in the town of Duncan, which is about 30 miles southwest of Oklahoma City. (more like 80 miles)
Bond was set at $1 million for 17-year-old Michael Jones, who allegedly drove the vehicle carrying the other suspects. He was charged with the use of a vehicle in the discharge of a weapon and accessory to murder after the fact. Jones is considered a youthful offender but will be tried in adult court.

Jones named Luna as the gunman, police said.

Police Chief Dan Ford said the victim, Chris Lane, 22, appeared to have been chosen at random, saying in a variety of media interviews since Friday's killing that one suspect told officers that he and other boys were bored and that they followed Lane and killed him for "the fun of it."

Lane was on a baseball scholarship at East Central University in Ada, Okla., and was in Duncan, Okla., visiting his girlfriend when he was shot and killed. Some bystanders tried to perform CPR on Lane, but he was unconscious and stopped breathing before an ambulance arrived.

Lane's killing has attracted international attention about a month after George Zimmerman, a community watch organizer who fatally shot an unarmed black teen, was acquitted by a Florida jury in a racially charged case.

Rev. Jesse Jackson said in a tweet Wednesday that he was "praying for the family of Chris Lane. This senseless violence is frowned upon and the justice system must prevail."

Prosecutor Jason Hicks called the boys "thugs" in court, saying Luna was sitting in the rear seat of a car when he pulled the trigger on a .22 caliber revolver and shot Lane once in the back. Hicks said Jones was driving the vehicle and Edwards was in the passenger seat.

Edwards has had run-ins with the law previously and had been in court Friday, the day of the killing, to sign documents related to his juvenile probation.

Peter Lane, meanwhile, told Australian media there was no explanation for his son's death.

"It is heartless and to try to understand it is a short way to insanity," he said

It was a racially motivated crime and makes no sense. One of them tweeted "90% of white ppl are nasty. #HATETHEM."

Yes, the homegrown black negro definitely but the latino negro and the white(?) may still only be going through a rapper anti- white peckerwood faze.

Can't we just celebrate their racist ethnic diversity?Anxious

Apparently, hood wannabes knock out only "wood".
Using "pecker" is questionable and cracker sounds edible.

Bingo!!!! Where's Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, and the NAACP screaming for a Federal investigation into the Hate Crime that evidence supports?? Where's the riots and protests for racial justice?? Oh that's right… that type of justice only constitutes attention when it's another race committing a crime against them. But not when they commit a blatant murder against another or one of their own.

HUGE double-standard. Another example of the black community pursuing/promoting racial discrimination only when it benefits them, instead of them looking at their own culture.

'Boredom' was not the reason behind Chris Lane's murder
By Dr. Keith Ablow

The mischaracterization of the alleged violence by Chancey Luna, Michael Jones and James Edwards began when one of the trio claimed they had hunted down and shot dead Australian Chris Lane because they were “bored.”

The statement is so devoid of humanity and so headline-ready that the media seized upon it as a literal and complete explanation for why these three accused killers acted so inhumanely.

But the statement is a smokescreen. Boredom—of the kind sane people experience—had nothing, whatsoever, to do with Lane’s death and explains nothing about how it happened.

When normal people are bored, they go to the movies, go shopping or skateboarding or take a drive to the beach. Only when people are severely psychologically disordered do they think up murder as an antidote to boredom. Only when extraordinarily disordered patterns of thought, feeling or perception fill one’s mind does the vacuum of boredom draw someone to the idea of using a gun to shoot a stranger in the head.

Chancey Luna, Michael Jones and James Edwards, if guilty, are not normal. So we should not be surprised, nor take at face value, the self-report that they killed out of boredom, because that excuse emerges from a person who is psychologically shattered and unaware enough to pump a bullet into another man’s skull.

So why would these three allegedly do this if it had nothing to do with boredom? Probably because Chris Lane, a strong man running the streets on a bright day, was as good a symbol as any of what they had lost: their humanity. They had lost the capacity to feel for others. They could not perceive the suffering of Lane during his death, nor of his family members after his death. They had lost that singular, defining human quality called empathy.

My 20 years as a forensic psychiatrist tell me that, in all three cases, it will be found that traumatic life events, perhaps coupled with head trauma, drug use and disordered brain chemistry from birth, left these young men detached from their own thoughts and feelings – and those of others. I would venture that on August 16, 2013, more than one of Chris Lane’s assailants was, for all intents and purposes, psychologically dead.

That’s why one of the three alleged assailants said they killed because they were “bored”—because his very disordered mind was like an echo chamber that allowed his feelings of being annihilated, dehumanized and dead to boomerang back to him as an impulse to kill

So, I guess in today's upside down world, the killers are the real victims here. I've heard that massive amounts of high amp electricity, coursing through their bodies, tend to permanently cure these types of psychological disorders.

if they were really bored, they should do what Rick normally does when he's bored: rub one out while watching videos of Idi Amin Jr. on the podium...



(The upside is that at least he's stopped doing that with promo pictures of Nancy Pelosi.)

So I would venture that in the very near future all three should become, for all intents and purposes, clinically dead.
