:::I disagree with Gaijin42 - this action is overdue, and thank you. I am not a fan at all of full protection, but it has become impossible to get people to actually discuss issues, so I think it was warranted. This is an article about an event, not a biography, and the addition of extraneous details are out of line, as is the use of two "person" infoboxes.  One thing flows from the other - we are not writing biographies here, so details unrelated to the shooting should not be there. A history of arrest, racial profiling, violent behavior would be relevant, but the reason the victim was suspended from school has no relevance. /
