A few days ago, news of a 16-year-old boy who got shot in the head for ringing the wrong doorbell when asked to go pick up his cousins went viral. The young boy identified as Ralph Yarl was said to have wronged the doorbell of an 85-year-old man in Kansas in the United States, the man upon opening his door fatally shot young Ralph Yarl in the head which almost ended his life, however after he was rushed to the hospital, doctors were able to revive him and he survived from his wounds.
In a piece of new news going viral, the 85-year-old man is said to be a Trump supporter who has been radicalized by racist conservative views in recent years according to his grandson. News agencies quickly picked up these assertions and they began going viral all over social media. Media news agency @raphousetv posted on their official Twitter handle and users trooped to the comments section to share their opinions. Others commented that idea of sharing his political stands was not needed. The old man is currently in police custody and may be facing jail time if found guilty.
A few of the opinions left under the post by users are highlighted below;

for the external door knob”.
What's your take on the issue? Should the old man be charged and jailed? Was his actions right? Did young Yarl deserve that? Let us know in the comments.
