Did you even READ the article??!!

He did dumbass, they found it with HIS DNA on it, loaded along with an ankle holster!! But of course, cops planted ALL of this on him while on video, despite his mile long rap sheet for assaulting a cop, his wife, illegal weapons while just serving 6 years in prison! Yup, must be the cops fault!

They are on VIDEO telling him to drop the gun MULTIPLE TIMES!!! So you think it actually HELPS with his wife stating he has a brain injury and just took meds....while he’s holding a gun??!!

“Or hold it when ordered to put it down.”

You’re right. The fact this guy was even on the street with his mile long rap sheet is completely broken.

He did have a gun. Did you not see that part? He had a gun, his wife knew he had a gun. She may not have known he had it on him at the exact time because she couldn’t see it, but she went to the press afterwards and told everyone that he didn’t have one, which was not true.

Right, just like “he was reading a book”, “a gun was planted” and the ankle holster wasn’t his!

You can’t be holding a weapon in your hand in open carry states, dummy.

...the black cop’s gun was taken in for ballistics, not to mention he STATED he shot him and is on VIDEO doing so idiot!

Seriously? You think an ex-con with a record a mile long including assaulting an officer and having a weapon while out on parole...will get his family money?? The same family that recently filed a restraining order against him for assault??!

Hey look everyone, another factually incorrect Anna Merlan story trying to push an agenda! Shocking!

I have to commend you for trying, but maybe you didn’t get the memo. We’ve moved past facts and into feelings territory. The purpose of this blog post is to make readers feel like their indignation is righteous. Be amazed as Anna Merlan magically transforms the blunt Keith Lamont Scott was smoking in his car into a…

No, you AREN’T allowed to “legally hold a gun”, do you actually think that is why open carry means...that people can just walk around with weapons in their hands dummy??!!

He wasn’t reading, this was already disproven. His daughter stated this and wasn’t even at the scene during the incident and no book was found.

I bet the whole “reading a book” with no gun thing will be a lie constantly repeated just like how Mike Brown had his hands up walking away even though it was fully debunked as false. If you need to make up shit to prove a point, you’re just trying to push a false narrative.

What should they do if someone is holding a gun and doesn’t drop it when asked to by a police officer?

In this case, they found a gun. The wife said there wasn’t one, but she was wrong. She also had known he had a gun because she had filed a domestic violence report against him before the incident and said he had one. Having TBI doesn’t mean you are excused from obeying a “drop the gun” order.

A good decision. And your lame use of quotation marks shows how biased you are.

How very surprising. Not.
