BREAKING: 18-year-old suspect apprehended in brutal murder of Brooklyn far-left activist
Post Millennial ^ | Oct 5, 2023 | Staff

Posted on 10/05/2023 8:53:45 AM PDT by Red Badger

Dowling was wearing the same clothes as the suspect in the video when police executed a search warrant.

On Thursday, the man suspected of brutally murdering 32-year-old Brooklyn activist Ryan Carson was apprehended by police and taken into custody.

Brian Dowling, 18, allegedly stabbed Carson to death while he and his girlfriend were waiting for the bus.

According to the New York Post, after Dowling was named as a suspect, police executed a search warrant at a home on Lafayette Avenue and Malcolm X Boulevard, near where the beloved activist was killed.

When authorities arrived, they discovered Dowling in the home wearing the same clothing as the man in footage of the incident. They also recovered a knife, though it has not been determined whether it was the murder weapon.

This is a breaking story and will be updated.

Have they started a GoFundMe Account yet?.................

Yes...and it's obnoxious and self righteous.

Hi everyone. We are a collective of Ryan's close friends, reeling from a brutal loss. We are asking for your help on behalf of his partner in easing the burden and stress of this horrifying situation so that we can have space and time to grieve, and remember Ryan. Immediate needs are to offset the costs of working class people taking time off of work to properly mourn. If you Google 'Ryan Carson', you'll hear (and now see) about the tragedy that struck on early Monday morning. But if you look past the breaking news, you'll see news on his legislative victories, you'll probably find his social media accounts filled with thoughts and memories, and you'll find collections of his artistic works to date. We hope you may find his thoughts on mutual aid, his works of advocacy, and understand that his radical principles of community care, justice, and dismantling an individualized profit-centered way of life are worth carrying forward in our own communities. It is this time of remembrance and healing that will allow for reflection; we thank you in advance for any material support you can provide. In pain and gratitude, Ryan's Friends

“beloved”? The guy was a Klantifa supporter. I’m glad he’s taking a dirt nap. I hope they all do.

Yes, and he was “beloved”! The newly ubiquitous click-bait adjective.

"In addition to being an activist, Carson was a published poet."

So basically, this guy was a 32-year-old 1960s reject who did nothing but smoke pot and agitate for a living.

I am sure someone will miss him.

I set up a GoFundMe for Ryan too. Here is my discription:

Hi everyone. I couldn’t pick Ryan out of a lineup of other circus clowns. But, I have established a GoFundMe in his honor.

If you will just ship $32 (that is just $1 for every year he lived) to me I will assure you that you will feel better about yourself. And I will feel better about my bank account.

RIP Jim...I mean Ryan.

I've searched and searched but can't manage to find a sympathetic nerve for the victim but I'm all for ridding the world of the perp as a basic service to mankind.
