He wasn't a drug dealer. He was a legal gun owner who got his house broken into at night by police officers. "Who knocked", after they realized they'd killed the wrong person...
Do you have a link to prove he was not a drug dealer? The reports I have read said he was. However, as I said before, the no-knock raid should not have happened. Heck, if he was a drug dealer, he might have thought he was defending himself from someone in that world.
This is what I think stinks about the whole thing. He was the drug dealer and according to reports she did not let him bring drugs into her house. She ends up losing her life for it, while he is likely to get a big settlement from the city and keep living his life. Yes, she was playing with fire for even going with a drug dealer, but she did not deserve to lose her life over this. It seems unfair that she lost her life and he (the drug dealer) lives to likely pimp more drugs on the black community.
Jamarcus Glover was the drug dealer. Kenneth Walker was the one in the apartment with Breonna on the night of the raid. The evidence does seem to point to Breonna receiving packages at her house containing drugs used to supply Glover’s trap houses as well as handling the money made via the drug dealing from Glover’s business. Walker was not involved with that operation. I agree that Breonna didn’t deserve to lose her life over this. No one does over drugs. It was a terrible series of events.

You need to reread who your quoting said.
Drug Dealer is not the same as Shooter. Drug Dealer was her Ex-Boyfriend who was never there and already in custody. His name is Jamarcus Glover.
Shooter was her current boyfriend, who is a legal gun owner. Kenneth Walker.
How many media outlets mention that when cops broke into Breonna Taylor's apartment, her boyfriend started SHOOTING AT THEM from the completely dark apartment, injuring one?
I haven't heard ONE "news" outlet mention that. Especially when they are showing some protest outraged that Taylor got shot. Her boyfriend in the apartment opened fire on the police, and the police fired back, just as they are always trained to do, continuing to fire until the threat against them was stopped.
Were the cops supposed to NOT return fire, even as somebody was shooting at them?
This important fact puts a whole different light on what happened. Breonna's tragic death was not a murder, it was an accident. The cops were doing what they HAD to do.
But it suits the agenda of somebody, to keep pretending it was just a bunch of trigger-happy cops randomly opening fire on a black girl. So we keep getting distorted reporting pretending she was murdered, while never mentioning that somebody in the apartment opened fire on the cops first, thus forcing the cops (yes, forcing) to shoot back into the apartment.
literally every news story says this and the shooter was justified the situation isn't straight forwward but it isn't that complicated.
Breanna Taylor was completely innocent. Her only problem was dating someone who was a drug dealer, which incriminates her (at least the police are trying to absolve themselves by incriminating her) but for all we know he could have been hiding it and that's the reason they broke up. I have a strong doubt believing a first responder, EMT willingly dates a drug dealer but humans are weird creatures.

Never mind, I found an article that states her "current boyfriend" was not a drug dealer (her earlier boyfriend was) My mistake. Good for her that she dumped her earlier drug dealer boyfriend. Sad she had to go like this. I hope Kenneth gets a nice payday. Police need to do a better job verifying information before knocking on doors especially like this! According to the article, she had been dating her new boyfriend for FOUR YEARS. I know someone who worked in data quality for police, and this person said the departments sometimes do a horrible job keeping their data up to date.

Breanna was still involved with Glover up until the raid, not likely as a girlfriend but had some involvement in his business.
Source? I am getting so tired of not knowing what to believe as every news source tells "their" story and not the facts. Many times they leave things "out" to fit their story. It's BS.
Well...I'd care a little. But I wouldn't hold anyone in the home criminally responsible. No knock warrants are insanely abused. They should be a rare exception, not a regular occurrence.
how many times do i have to say, it wasn't No-knock.
that was a media lie. we all believed it. I believed it. I hate the idea of no-knock. they should be against the law.
this wasn't a no-knock warrant.
