Shoots him right in the head. Takes his time and does it in cold blood. People film it but do not intervene. Reverse the races on this and there would be riots in the streets.

Video here...the actual killing is not shown but the lead up and reaction afterwards are.

I don't blame folks for not intervening. The guy had a gun. Intervention likely means you would get shot too.

That's disturbing all by itself but the fact that people stood around filming is even scarier. What the bleep is wrong with people today? smh

St. Louis is the most murderous city in America (of any city with 250,000+ people). Alot of people were scared to intervene. This is why many people are leaving St. Louis proper (and have been leaving over the past 60-65 years).

shooter probably heard vegetable xoe bellowing over and over, insistently and dementedly about 'white supremacy' being a dire threat, and thought he was doing something good.

the attorney general himself stated “The top domestic violence extremist threat we face comes from racially or ethnically motivated violent extremists, specifically those who advocate for the superiority of the white race”

the shooter could have been scared and acted upon the threat.

St. Louis is one of the easiest places to get murdered. And it's been a very murderous city for a very long time, decades.

Just like the woman who was raped on the train in Philly (I believe) a couple years ago. This is where we are as a society today. They all just stood there with their phones while the guy took his time sexually assaulting her. It is disgusting. I've experienced people do this to me in a moment I needed help, just to a much lesser extent.

I had no idea things were that bad there. You never read this sort of thing in the "best places to retire" articles, though.

Still, pretty bad.
