So far we've raised $630 from 30 people for the funeral & burial costs of

"I understand people believe I' just a statistic" At such a young age, he already felt such pain. This is a black boy in
! Believe them when they say: they really don't care, but we must care & must do something to make things better for young Black boys like Antwon Rose.

just, like BELIEVE VICTIMS. Srsly, almost all women are being truthful re: their
#metoo
, almost all black people are being truthful about being targeted by police, 7 assumed guilty of offenses where they, statistically, are much more likely to be victims than culprits.

A respected officer at the University of Pittsburgh just told me that Michael Rosfeld, the cop who shot
#AntwonRose, should've never been allowed to work in law enforcement again after assaulting students at the University - including the son of a chancellor.pic.twitter.com/OGIybREz9m

So he arrested the son of a big wig at pitt and got forced to resign .... isn't it justice for all ...... hey any comment on the fact antwon Rose did a drive by right b4 being pulled over ???.... no comment didn't think so

The jitney driver was released. If that car had been involved, the driver would not have been. Reports of gun residue on Antwon’s hands are false as is the report that video shows him shooting anyone.pic.twitter.com/hhO4Wz7QFj

Ppl (white conservatives) are going 2 say.."well why'd he run!?" He ran because he's seen the reports over the last 13 yrs of his life where police shot
#TamirRice for sitting at a park while being Black. He ran because police have a policy against young black kids 2 shoot 1st -
Ask questions and apply blame last. He ran because there was an aggressive white man w/a gun patrolling a neighborhood he knows nothing about. He ran because he was afraid 4 his life.
#FTP for life!!!!
