      Meet #CharlesRoundtree. Just a kid. A teenager. Shot & killed by the San Antonio Police while sitting on the couch watching television. He was unarmed. Non-violent. Broke no laws. Was not a suspect. And then the police covered it up. Tried to at least.pic.twitter.com/0YGGbyn4zR

      The San Antonio Police lied about all of this. It’s 1am in the morning. In less than 9 seconds, the officer knocks on the door, shines his light through it, and then unloads his gun. Nobody was armed. #CharlesRoundtree never made it off the couch. Killed right there.pic.twitter.com/z3UlHwkndk

          I've tried to write a reply multiple times, but I can't...just can't find anything that fits. That is so horrible and cowardly...shoot into someone's house and then run away behind a car. Who does that?

          This. To me, this is the biggest problem. Anyone would be frightened of someone who quietly knocks on your door at night, pushes the door open, and sticks a flashlight at you. They probably thought it was a burglar, have just as much right to self defense at that point as anyone.

          Officer says “let me see your...” and shoots before finishing his own sentence, let alone allowing the victim the chance to respond to it. Is this how you train them @SATXPolice?

          @SATXPolice this is beyond disgusting, this officer must be put on trial for murder and everyone who covered for him either fired or tried in court as well. I’m proud to call SA my home but i don’t feel safe in my community anymore after watching this...
