    In just a few hours Jemel Roberson will be laid to rest in Chicago. He was a good guy with a gun - killed by police after stopping a mass shooting. What's clear is that when conservatives say we need more "good guys with guns" they mean good white guys with guns.https://twitter.com/shaunking/status/1066317381302132736 …

    My God. American police just killed another "good guy with a gun." Emantic Fitzgerald Bradford Jr., better known as EJ, the son of a police officer, was an active duty officer for the Army, home for Thanksgiving. Murdered by police yesterday in a mall shooting in Alabama. pic.twitter.com/xHsiOPUD5y

        Gun control needs to start with law enforcement. They go out unjustly murder someone & are not held accountable. These are human lives taken that can’t be returned all because a cop felt some type of way. They can’t keep allowing them to get away without critical consequences.

        It seems like all of these people should have been told to always carry a WHITE flag with them to hold up after saving the day. So unfortunate it seems to be to shot first ask questions later, hard for a white Canadian male to grasp this horror

        This one fills me with anger and heart break. Jemel Roberson was killed by cops while he was an on duty security guard, a hero doing his job protecting the public from a mass shooter. Good guy w/a gun murdered by rogue cops with guns. Police reform NOW!!!

        When they started discussion of arming teachers (which, as a teacher, I say is extremely stupid), my argument has been to ask, what will happen the first time a middle eastern, black, or latino teacher pulls out a gun to protect others? The police will shoot them first.

        In Amerikkka today any strong black man or woman is seen as an threat to the imperialistic and racist system of the colonial powers reinforced by the media to give black and POC an bad name and image at what point do we say enough is enough

        The United States was founded on racism and genocide. There has never been a proper accounting so the myth of America being founded on freedom persists.

        Im not sure what they mean. Bad things happen when guns come out. USA has no moral guide but violence against its own citizens. Sow. Reap. Stop.

        There was a news story, Philadelphia area , of a cops stop of a 🚗, a white man gets out with a gun, opens 🔥@ the cop, shoots out the cops windshield & continues firing. That guy shooting @ the cop was taken alive. Sadly it would not have ended that way 4 a black man.
