Manslaughter? No. Self Defense? No. If you feel threatened by someone, leave the area immediately. If you leave and come back with a gun, you intented to kill or do harm. Its murder. Not saying this is the case here since I dont know all the details.

Self defense??? Did this lawyer buy his degree at the local Check Cashing joint??? WTF?

tragic….black on black crime…..

they love to see us kill each other and we sure keep them entertained

If he did it then just give him the gas face and be done with it.

Heh, that’s what I was thinking.

* Both people directly involved come into LAX on a flight from Georgia

* Fight on the plane (instigated by shooter or associate of shooter (i.e. “false beef”))

* Various witness reports saying that shooter was female but person apprehended was male and actually *went back* to the airport with alleged weapon still in possession. Why not drive the rental car out of the area, drop that whip off at any of a thousand cat rental drop-off spots and then be up back to Georgia? Why not ditch the weapon? Much better chances of success in court if a weapon could not be found.

* Who wants to bet that the person arrested is not the shooter? Just the weed carrier who will walk later once it’s shown that there is no evidence that he is the shooter.

@Whodunnit?
Now you have me thinking… Things that make you go hmm!?!?!

Much better chances of success in court if a weapon could not be found. i think not good idia

GOOD. I’m glad that the man who ended Dolla’s life is now in custody. They need to book him on the first bus to the big state pen, and make sure at his hearing that he gets life without any chance of parole. He needs to be severly punished for what he did. I don’t care how many of y’all sit up and talk negatively about Dolla. He still didn’t deserve to have his life taken away. Especially at 21 years old. A gun should have never came into the picture PERIOD. That just goes to show that that man didn’t have any real balls or he would have handled the situation more so as a man. Now Dolla is gone. I know he’s probably smiling down, glad that his murderer has been caught. It’s sad that he had all of his dreams and future plans taken away all over a girl or whatever the brawl was about. Rest in Peace Dolla. We Miss you, you may be gone but never ever forgotten.

THERE’S A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BLACK FOLKS AND NICCAS

NICCAS ARE THE ONES KILLING ONE ANOTHER AND COMMITTING ALL THESE DAMN CRIMES

BLACK FOLKS ARE WORKING HARD, MAKING AN HONEST LIVING AND DOING THE BEST THEY CAN-WE HAVE OUR FAULTS BUT MOST GOOD BLACK FOLKS WOULD NEVER KILL SOMEONE UNLESS IT WAS TO PROTECT THEMSELVES OR THEIR FAMILY

I AINT CLAIMING THESE NICCAS-I’M JUST CALLING THEM EXACTLY WHAT THEY ARE-I’M SICK OF THEM TARNISHING THE REPUTATION OF GOOD BLACK PEOPLE

LOCK THEY AZZEZ UP AND THROW AWAY THE KEY BETTER YET SEND THEIR AZZEZ TO THE WAR IN IRAQ LET’S SEE HOW GANGSTA THEIR AZZES ARE THERE

It ain’t even about that. LMAO @ Black Friday saying the murder suspect had “a good credit score” and that he “just graduated from college.” This dude was doing some grimy business on the side, especially if he was packin’ a gun and had some still unknown female on his back the whole time leading up to the murder. There is NO EXCUSE for this man to have brought a gun into the situation and feel that he had to literally pull the trigger and kill Dolla. I don’t buy that “self defense” line of crap that the media is trying to feed to people, to make it seem like the whole thing generated from Dolla. I strongly strongly doubt it. Dolla was just standing there waiting on his limo to pick him up after he had just got done shopping for new gear. He was supposed to go work on his debut album. I think that the murder suspect had a lot of hatred in his heart, especially if he had enough nerve to catch Dolla and his friend off guard and shoot him dead in broad daylight. He had to have been holding some type of grudge or something in his heart for him, and thought that it was time to punch Dolla’s clock in. He needs to get the ultimate prison sentence or punishment for what he’s done. Because no matter how hard he tries to apologize to people, that will NOT bring Dolla back. He’s gone forever, his life, his dreams. Everything he could have been was taken from him. You could tell by most of his interviews that he wasn’t no bad person. Yes he had flaws, but he was only human..every human being has flaws and insecurities within themselves. Even though he had to do some illegal things to support his family, at least when he was able to get signed and start making a living a more positive way..he took good care of them. He even said when he got his very first paycheck after he got signed that he bought his mom a car. So does that sound like a “gangbanger, thug” to you? Nobody can sit up and criticize this man for what he did when he was alive, because if you look in the mirror and think about everything you’ve done in your lifetime there are gonna be things that were negative that you wouldn’t want people to remember..but when you’re dead and gone somebody will be more than likely to bring it up. Nobody on here can call him out these names because think of what people could label you as when you’re dead and gone. People out here could label you a thug, or controversial, or worthless or something of that calibre. Don’t ever underestimate that. Dolla chose music over runnin’ the streets, at least he made it past his 18th birthday. Because half the kids who come from the hood who sell drugs just to support their family and get enough money for education usually end up getting murdered before their 18. Even though he was just 21 when he was murdered, he was getting on the right path to a better future. And that I respect. He didn’t wanna keep livin in the hood, he didn’t wanna be one of those people who was in trouble or in a gang..so he chose to rap instead. He was on his way to something big, it’s just ashame that someone would wanna take that all away from him over a fight that could have just been blown off. Huh, he’s pleading self defense?!?! He needs to rethink that. I’m not the only one who isn’t gonna buy into him shooting Dolla in self defense crap.

IF HE MADE OUT OF THE BATHROOM TO GET A GUN-HE OBVIOUSLY WASN’T IN TOO MUCH DANGER-CAUSE IF SOMEONE WAS THREATENING YOUR AZZ AND MEANT IT YOU WOULD HAVE NEVER MADE IT OUT THE BATHROOM

AND SECONDLY-ONCE HE MADE IT OUT HE HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO LEAVE OR CALL THE POLICE IF HE FEARED FOR HIS LIFE-LIKE ANOTHER POSTER SAID

STOP JUSTIFYING KILLING-I DON’T GIVE A DAMN ABOUT HIS GPA AND THAT NICCA WAS THAT SMART/INTELLIGENT HE WOULD HAVE HANDLED THE SITUATION MUCH DIFFERENTLY

MAD THUGZ AND DOPE BOYS GO TO COLLEGE AND DO QUITE WELL-HELL THEIR BUSINESS MEN!

PEOPLE GET IT TWISTED THESE NICCAS ARE VERY SMART THEY ELUDE THE POLICE, MAKE ALOT OF MONEY TAX FREE-THEY ARE FAR FROM DUMMIES, GOING TO SCHOOL IS A HUSTLE ALSO, MANY OF THEM USE THEIR SCHOOL REFUND CHECKS AND LOANS TO FUND THEIR “BUSINESS”-STOP PLAYIN

@intensemocha I wanna cosign everything you just said. That dude BlackFriday is the one who made this irrelevant statement about his “good credit score” and that “he just graduated from college.” I mean who cares? Obvliously he kept digging himself into the situation and actually WANTED to finish it..because if he was really supposed to be firing in “self defense” then he would have just like intensemocha said, ran out of the bathroom and got to the nearest telephone and called the police. But instead he turned around and him and some girl FOLLOWED DOLLA all the way to the mall, just so he could catch him out in the parking lot and shoot him. So now he’s gonna have to face the consequences which aren’t gonna be looking too bright for him especially if prosecutors get more evidence than they do now to get him put away. A man got killed Monday just because some man who “just graduated from college” didn’t wanna use his brain and get out of the situation..but instead he wanted to be the one to have the last say in it. And for that very reason Dolla is no longer here to share his gift with the world.

@Tha Cool Chick & intensemocha:

LMAO. Im glad you two aren’t judges and hope they never call you for jury duty. Stop pretending that you know what happened cause you don’t. I don’t either but I know the things I DO know don’t add up. I brought up his credit score and graduation because it gives us insight into his character. And everybody who carries a gun is not into something grimey. Why the hell would you say something that stupid? You think the state liscensed him to carry a gun so he could carry out his “grimminess”? No!. He had to have a good reason to have it in order to be allowed to have it. We just don’t know what it is yet.

Time will tell though, the facts will come out. Like I said before, from the outside looking in, it seems more probable that he killed boy in self defense. We just have to wait for the details and not try to make them up.
