Mother of Jordan Davis Says Calling Her Son's Death a "Hate Crime" would "Dishonor Him"
Mother of Jordan Davis Says Calling Her Son's Death a "Hate Crime" would "Dishonor Him"
November 28, 2012 04:00 PM EST
Jordan Davis died during a shooting outside of a gas station on Friday night. His mother, Lucia McBath, says that calling the shooting a "hate crime" would divide people and would be even more of a tragedy. It started when 45-year-old Michael Dunn and his girlfriend pulled up next to Davis and his friends at a gas station, where they stopped to get snacks after shopping on Black Friday, as reported by Heather Crawford at FirstCoastNews. Dunn confronted the teens over their loud music, which led to the shooting. It certainly seems like a case of overkill, as Dunn "shot eight or nine rounds at the car, striking the victim twice and killing him." How devastating for this mother! Dunn reportedly did not realize that anyone was shot during the incident, and he fled the scene, worried that there would be retaliation.

Dunn's attorney said that he was acting in self defense, as he saw one of the teens flash a gun. "What we know is that once all the facts come out, that what really happened is known, it will be very clear that Mr. Dunn acted responsibly and as any other firearms owner would have acted under these same circumstances," says Dunn's attorney, Robin Lemonidis, as reported by Michelle Quesada.
McBath believes that her faith in God will help her get through this time. Jordan Davis' death is a horrific as he was only 17 years old and had his whole life ahead of him. Hopefully the mainstream media will honor her and the memory of her son by not politicizing this tragedy.

Hector 'Macho' Camacho shot
Hector Camacho Shot In Puerto Rico Hector Camacho has been taken to the hospital after being shot.
Updated: November 21, 2012, 2:56 PM ET ESPN.com news services
SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico -- Hector "Macho" Camacho was clinging to life Wednesday after being shot in the face while in a car, with doctors and his family expected to decide whether to remove the former boxing champion from life support. Doctors initially had said the 50-year-old Camacho was in critical but stable condition and expected to survive after he was shot Tuesday night in his hometown of Bayamon. His condition worsened overnight, however, and his heart stopped at one point, said Dr. Ernesto Torres, director of the Centro Medico trauma center in San Juan. "The situation with Macho is very delicate," Torres told reporters during a media briefing on Wednesday. "The prognosis is not good." He said the hospital's team of doctors were trying to determine the boxer's level of brain activity. "We just have to wait to see if Macho gets better. It's a hard battle," friend and former manager Ismael Leandry told The Associated Press. Torres said Camacho's mother, Maria Matias, spent about 20 minutes with her son, one of the most dynamic boxing personalities of his era, and was expected to return for a second visit on Wednesday night. She is expected to decide whether Camacho should be taken off life support based on the results of further tests due Wednesday. Torres said encephalographic tests would determine whether Camacho is brain dead. Torres said Camacho's son, Hector Camacho Jr., is due to arrive in Puerto Rico on Wednesday night. "His mother came and she is devastated," he said. "She knows the prognosis is not at all favorable." A godson, Widniel Adorno, said the family has discussed the possibility of organ donation but no final decision has been made. Camacho was outside Azuquita Liquor Store in a parked Ford Mustang with a friend when he was shot in the face. The friend, identified as 49-year-old Adrian Mojica Moreno, was killed. Police said two assailants fled in an SUV but no arrests have been made and no motive has been disclosed. Mojica Moreno's relationship to Camacho wasn't immediately known, but on Wednesday detective Alex Diaz told ESPN.com that Mojica Moreno had nine bags of cocaine in his possession with an open 10th bag in the vehicle, which was registered to Mojica Moreno. He had been arrested for possession of controlled substances in April, according to Diaz. Camacho was rushed to Centro Medico, where doctors initially said a bullet passed through his jaw and lodged in his shoulder. Torres said the bullet damaged three of the four main arteries in his neck and fractured two vertebrae, which could leave him paralyzed if he were to survive. Mojica Moreno was shot as he got out of the car and tried to flee while Camacho was shot in the passenger's seat. Steve Tannenbaum, who also has represented Camacho in the past, had been told earlier by friends at the hospital that the boxer would survive. "This guy is a cat with nine lives. He's been through so much," he said. "If anybody can pull through it will be him." Friends and family members waited anxiously at the hospital, fondly recalling Camacho's high-energy personality and his powerful skills in the ring. "He was like a little brother who was always getting into trouble," said former featherweight champion Juan Laporte, a fellow Puerto Rican who grew up and trained with Camacho in New York. Camacho has been considered one of the more controversial figures in boxing, but also popular among fans and those who worked in the sport. "The Macho Man was a promoter's dream," renowned promoter Don King told AP. "He excited boxing fans around the world with his inimitable style. He was a nice, amiable guy away from the ring." King had promoted Camacho but was caught off guard by news of the attack on the former champion. "What a tragedy this is," he said. "I'm very sorry for Hector and his family. My prayers go out to him." The fighter's last title bout came against then-welterweight champion Oscar De La Hoya in 1997, a loss by unanimous decision. He last fought in May 2010, losing to Saul Duran. Tannenbaum said they were looking at a possible bout in 2013. "We were talking comeback even though he is 50," he said. "I felt he was capable of it." Camacho was born in Bayamon, one of the cities that make up the San Juan metropolitan area. He left Puerto Rico as a child and grew up mostly in New York's Harlem neighborhood, one of the reasons he later earned the nickname "the Harlem Heckler." He went on to win super lightweight, lightweight and junior welterweight world titles in the 1980s. Camacho has a career record of 79-6-3. Camacho has fought other high-profile bouts in his career against Felix Trinidad, Julio Cesar Chavez and Sugar Ray Leonard. Camacho knocked out Leonard in 1997, ending what was that former champ's final comeback attempt. In recent years, he has divided his time between Puerto Rico and Florida, appearing regularly on Spanish-language television as well as on a reality show called "Es Macho Time!" on YouTube. In San Juan, he had been living in the beach community of Isla Verde, where he would obligingly pose for photos with tourists who recognized him on the street, said former pro boxer Victor "Luvi" Callejas, a neighbor and friend. "We all know what Macho Camacho has done, but in the last couple of months he hasn't been in any trouble," Callejas said as he kept vigil outside the hospital. "He has been taking it easy. He's been upbeat." Drug, alcohol and other problems have trailed Camacho since the prime of his boxing career. He was sentenced in 2007 to seven years in prison for the burglary of a computer store in Mississippi. While arresting him on the burglary charge in January 2005, police also found the drug ecstasy. A judge eventually suspended all but one year of the sentence and gave Camacho probation. He wound up serving two weeks in jail, though, after violating that probation. His wife also filed domestic abuse complaints against him twice before their divorce several years ago. Information from The Associated Press was used in this report.

"Rhythm and Amusement": R. Kelly Sings for Security to Remove Fan from Crowd
One of the most popular R&B singers in history, R. Kelly, had to kick one of his fans out of a recent concert. The way he went about removing the fan, who was becoming rowdy, is very interesting. Instead of telling security to remove the fan, Kelly sang for security guards to remove the fan from the venue. The entire incident was caught on video too.
The show took place this past weekend at the Nokia Theater in Downtown Los Angeles. During the concert, Kelly saw two female fans getting physical with each other in the crowd. A source told TMZ that one of the women took the other woman’s seat and that the two came within inches of trading punches during the incident.
We have embedded the video in this post for you to enjoy and it is difficult to tell what Kelly says after he sings for security to come to remove the woman. You can kind of tell that Kelly barked some orders at the security team in the theater and even used some choice words all while keeping his tune.
The security guards finally realized what was going on and responded to the area of the crowd that needed attention. The woman was then escorted from the building.

The HuffPost Pollster tracking model created by Stanford political scientist Simon Jackman, which combines all available national and statewide polling data, finds that if polls fall within the historical ranges of polling accuracy, Obama stands a 91 percent chance of victory.
The remaining questions about the polling data are whether the final averages prove to be as collectively accurate as in past elections or whether some systematic error in the swing state surveys is concealing a hidden Romney advantage that will reveal itself when the votes are counted. There is also, perhaps, the issue of whether all voters will be allowed to cast ballots and whether all of their votes will be counted.
Nationally, 10 more pollsters reported their final results on Monday or Tuesday. The final round of national polls, including those released over the weekend, all show the race falling well within the typical random sampling error for a single national survey, with margins ranging from a 1 percentage-point Romney edge to a 4 point Obama advantage.
When the Pollster tracking model combines all of the data into an estimate of the national popular vote, it now shows Obama holding a roughly 1.5 point advantage over Romney (48.1 to 46.7 percent), the best showing for Obama since just before the first presidential debate in October (the model will revise one more time on Tuesday morning to catch the last handful of final polls, and this article will be updated accordingly).
Given the late deluge of data, the model says that Obama's narrow national advantage is statistically meaningful and does not result from random chance. When historical patterns of polling accuracy are factored in, the model now gives Obama a 75 percent chance of winning the national popular vote.
Far more importantly, the final polls show Obama maintaining his advantage in the critical battleground states. In Ohio, which continues to be the most important tipping point state in the race to win 270 electoral votes, 13 of the final 14 surveys show Obama nominally ahead, with one showing a tie.
But the polls also give Obama narrower but statistically meaningful advantages of roughly 2.5 points in Iowa and nearly 2 points in New Hampshire, Virginia and Colorado. If Obama wins in all of the states where he is leading, his electoral vote total would rise to 303 electoral votes.
Romney holds a statistically significant lead in North Carolina, which when combined with other states where he leads by larger margins, would bring his electoral vote total to 206.
In the final hours, Florida remains a true tossup, with the two candidates separated by a half a percentage point (48.4 to 47.9 percent). With typical patterns of polling accuracy factored in, the chances of Obama's tiny advantages translating into a Florida victory as of this writing are just 59 percent -- barely better than a coin toss.
A list of the final round of Florida's polls illustrates the pattern. Seven give Romney a nominal advantage, six give the edge to Obama and three show an exact tie.
As Simon Jackman explains separately, the question of how to best predict the electoral college outcome is tricky because of uncertainty about Florida. As shown in the graphic below, the model predicts several different electoral vote scenarios as most likely. If Obama wins every state in which the model currently shows him ahead (including the non-significant margin in Florida), he would win a total of 332 electoral votes, which is also the model's median estimate.
