When
#DannyRayThomas was finally released from prison, he was, as you can imagine, just a hollow shell of his best self. The guilt, pain, and anger were overwhelming. He fought to recover - and tried hard. Damn hard. Every single day. I spoke to people who knew him. Valiant.Show this thread
So, last Thursday, when bystanders & onlookers saw a very random, confused man stumbling through the streets of Houston with his pants down, the laughed nervously. He needed an ambulance. He needed so much love & healing. Instead, he got a cop.https://twitter.com/RobDownenChron/status/977387735504904192 …

What’s more disturbing to watch is people filming and laughing at a person who obviously needs help ether than trying 2 help. The rest is the new norm I guess, a black individual in distress equates to killing him. Everyday I wonder the same thing; WTH is happening to us.

My first thought too. Mental illness is never to be laughed at.

Sadly it’s become the norm, film it to post so you can get likes. It’s disgusting.

Can a person with concealed carry ever step in and defend someone in this situation? Or to defend themselves? Unjust police shootings look like "tyrannical government" to me. Or is that only a piece of rhetoric for gun advocates.

American cops are cowards, killing unarmed peoples dose not make you brave. Cops have zero respect for citizens they're supposed to serve.

Oh my! Nobody bothered to check what was wrong with him. Police just see a black man behaving like that, identify him as a threat and shoot him?

Fear and lack of training dealing with emotional disturbed people.

I didn't know having your pants down was an executable offense. To be fair to the critics, they will say
#DannyRayThomas was not complying with the officers orders. Also not an executable offense. When are we going to change this USA.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

The more I hear about this story the more it sounds like a suicide by cop and the police involved should’ve seen signs of that. He was distraught, and talking to himself. The man was walking through the streets half dressed, that should’ve been the first clue
