And most shooters and victims in Chicago tend to have an affiliation with one or more gangs. This includes the extended families. What often initially appears random, is not.

The event that precipitated Police response, was a shooting at an SUV. The scattershot picked it up.

I am curious if the people in the SUV who were shot at have surfaced or if they just sped away.

Posts like these are what pisses me off the most. Why are my people pushing this false narrative. I do all these daily as do million of other African Americans and live to tell about it. I have a better chance of being hurt by my own people everyday.

You cherry pick 7 out of 13 million. That’s about 0.00006% of the black population that that’s happened to.

Momma will collect the GoFundMe proceeds now, though
The kid had a long history of going missing for extended periods of time. His mother claims he would sneak out at night while she slept. Sometimes his mother filed a missing persons report. Sometimes not.

Last time his mother saw him was at a family gathering for a dead relative. Not clear when that was. He came and went.

Two days after the shooting the Police asked his mother for a recent photo. She did not make much of it at the time. Hours later, she was asked to come to the morgue. Her good boy was dead.

I have not seen enough video on this one to make a judgement as to what happen. Seems like split second decision had to be made.

This. One second to decide, aim and fire. One second. At night with a suspect they knew probably fired the shots they responded to .

It's not black people pushing this narrative.

It's not white people who are pushing this narrative.

It is the far left that is pushing this narrative. And they don't care that the facts are wrong, it doesn't matter what crime was in the process of being committed ... all that matters is that a person of color was killed by a white cop.

The vast majority of U.K. Police don't carry guns. Cops here are just trigger happy and scared. STOP hiring cowards as police.

Yup. Cops can't avoid situations like this. They make a mistake, they're dead. They make a mistake, they've killed someone.

Sometimes you have to use your best judgement.

he had a flashlight on the kid, the kid turned around with his hands up as he was instructed to do. He can't be shot after that. He just can't. Check my history on these cases here, the narrative of cops hunting black men is BS. But ..you can't reach for a taser and pull a gun instead and shoot someone. And you can't shoot a kid with his hands clearly in the air. He had a bright flashlight on him and he was what, 15 feet away? It's just not good.
