    Did Antonio already KNOW that, and deliberately omit that information? Hmmmm.........

    Atleast KLAS 8 News Web Page described the victim as a Hispanic male.

    I would wager that this was "all male action"...

    Odd choice of words- "male". Why not the usual "Man dies in shooting"? Was there some question as to the actual gender or age of the victim?

    I must say this is the most demonstrative story I have seen in a while. Excellent verbiage Antonio, you will be going places. It was hilarious you said "Male" instead of the typical cover-up. Wait a minute, why did you say "Male" instead of describing the victim? What does the subject look like?

    The annual race between homicides and traffic fatalities is on!
