They have latched onto him. The Free Press Summer Fest here in Houston booked him to perform a few years ago. There was an outcry, but the trust fund douchebag who ran it at the time, Omar Afra, didn’t give a shit.

“The shooting of a white Australian is likely to provoke a very different public and police response than the many, many killings of unarmed black Americans by police in the last few years.”
Have you ever been to either of those sites? What kind of articles do you think they’ve been posting for the last eight years? Constructive criticism? Good God. But by all means please continue being “that guy”.
Body cams that can be turned off by the wearer are pretty fucking pointless.
