thegeorgeyoung They didn’t give AF about his ass either. Smh

What the hell, 12 hours!? No excuse foe any of them. Someone is shot foolishness should stop and help should be gotten for the victim. People on both sides need to grow up. whitesagainstwhiteracist

Can someone please explain to me why anyone was even out when the city have a dusk to dawn curfew. Everyone who was out should have been arrested.

RayMuzyka Framing is everything. He was in the crowd that fired upon them. Should they not respond and not fire back?

Good news everyone! The evidence that would have proven the cops right weren't turn on. Their body cameras weren't turn on. The thing that would prove the cops right wasn't turn on.

RayMuzyka 'Died in a police killing'? WTF is that supposed to mean? Is this an English-language publication? SPEAK IT THEN. Put the words together. Police killed him. He didn't 'die in a police killing'. THEY FUCKING MURDERED HIM.

Mowracer84 Many restaurants in many cities feed police for free, not out of appreciation, but out of fear of what will happen if they don't.

Sad day

Never do something nice for terrorist cops, which is all cops. Theyll kill you anyway.

US crimes against humanity for the whole world to see.

A civilised country? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
