    Listen. It’s not that I wanted police to shoot him, but that he was arrested, without a scratch, after murdering 10 people, while still armed w/ a handgun & a shotgun, in a trench coat, while hundreds of unarmed, non-violent African Americans are killed by police is a scandal.pic.twitter.com/zmbDFcaVfl

        He was walking around with a black trench coat in 90 degree weather ,and no one thought he looked suspicious enough to call the cops on him

        He wore his trench coat and army boots daily, other students called it "his uniform" So today was no different than any other day for the school.

        Also like many other students. High school kids are full of angst. Many kids dress in all black, wear combat boots and trench coats and would never hurt anyone.

        No, it really doesn't. Thousands of kids dress like this and will go on to be productive citizens. May I ask an honest question @emg318 When was the last time you were in a high school full of students?

        The scandal is not that he lived, but that they died. I know what you're saying.

        Tragic loss of innocent lives all to often when the shooter is white PO are able to exhibit amazing restraint however when you look at the overwhelming number of cases where POC are killed in non threatening situations unarmed it just makes go hmmm 🤔 why is that?
