No arrests of anyone else in the car indicates that this is a transparent sham excuse, and this cop has no excuse for killing this child.

Yeah, we need to stop the hero worship of cops. Not every cop is a hero, plenty are just violent scum. Or jumpy cowards. Or racist. Or collaborators with the violent, jumpy, cowardly, racist scum. Three of the five bullies in my high school class became cops, which looks like a pattern. And Trump isn’t helping.

Fuck every last “law enforcement officer.” The biggest sham in this country. The only things they “protect and serve” are white people and white supremacy. Fuck them all to hell. I don’t care if your dad, uncle, brother, sister, mother is one of the “good ones,” they’re all complicit in this charade.

IKR? So it never occurred to these “trained” officers to get out of the way of a car that is backing up? Of course not. They have to go straight to deadly force when black people are involved. That seems to be their only option when if it involves us. There will be a big story about this for a while, the cop will…

“If I hadn’t shot, a bystander might have escaped unquestioned.”

I wouldn’t call it “open and shut.” You may have seen a lot more evidence than I have, I suppose. All I have is what I read from a couple of police statements or claims by the prosecutor.

Yes. If someone is killed by the cops you rally around their family members because they are grieving, you don’t need to do a background check before expressing compassion for someone in pain.

Your strawman isn’t subtle, and neither is your racism. Go away.

I’m intrigued!

Um you know when racists read black, gun and violence they can’t wait to dog whistle their hatred and pretend they’re getting away with something.

Don’t worry though, she’s licensed.

Dammit! Now you’ll get to borrow all Victoria Financier’s money at that low, low interest rate and there won’t be any money left for me to borrow! Just goes to show, in this high-speed modern internet economy, you’ve got to move fast.

Seems legit. Sent an email and threw in my SSN, bank account number and routing number to speed things along!!!

Among white people gun nuts...

I really hope the kid has other mentors in his life because the mom sounds like a terrible person who will raise a hot headed child

Among white people, that’s called a “Well-regulated militia.”

Lots of white people used this guy as an excuse that their fox viewing had nothing to do with being racist.

Locking a person in a cage, and denying them water until they die is Murder. Capital “M”. Pre-meditated. Cold-blooded. Sick. Sadism you wouldn’t expect from anyone who wasn’t a serial killer. Civilians get the death penalty for less. Much less.

I’m pretty sure that Sheriff Hootie, Jr. has already moved past scrubbing, & is now depleting his local supply of Clorox bleach. This guy actually hates being a black person. His aura emits a stench that can be seen, like the plume that follows Pepe LePew. Have you seen his posing on Facebook or Instagram? I’d love to…

Ahh yes someone tell me how shutting off water for a week isn’t murder...No explain that to me.
