A decree issued by Interim Police Director Michael Rallings to go 30 days without killing failed when a man was shot and killed Tuesday afternoon.
The shooting happened near the intersection of East Raines Road and Airways Boulevard. The victim was first reported as being in extremely critical condition, but doctor's later announced that he did not survive his injuries.
Monday afternoon, Interim Police Director Michael Rallings asked protesters to help him by agreeing to a 30 day moratorium on killing. That moratorium did not last 24 hours.

Dollars to doughnuts a record number of murders occurs in those 30 days.
Well it kind of proved the point. They can’t even kumbaya.
I wonder what happened to that sick child who was blocked by the protestors from being taken to the Emergency Room.
I don’t know anything about the Rallings guy. Is he even a cop? What an absolutely imbecilic thing to do.
So, what is he going to do, now that asking nicely didn’t work?
Horrible grammar. This guy is a director? Sloppy language, sloppy thinking.
A valient effort on the part of the CoP. Now a lesson learned. #BLM are useless and not at all tied into the community.
3 days tops
I predict there will be a murder in Memphis before midnight this Saturday.
I'm reminded of the "Take back the night" movement (against rape). The people listening and agreeing that stopping that particular class of crime are not the same people who are out committing the crime. And those who commit the crime are not likely to be swayed by some plea to take back the night or to stop senseless killing.
And they say the cops are the problem??
Yeah, 30 days is too long, like a drunk, one day at a time, just one day.
Is this from the Onion?
Just say Feelz Goodz slogans and everything will be fine?
Another affirmative-action “leader” foisted on the public by the left. Similar to what we have in the White House.
Those killed on Tuesday afternoon don’t count. But, if chooses, one can see the police focus shift from protecting the public to the siding with the criminals. Not only there, but through the entire spectrum of the “protests”. As innocent people injured and the police do nothing.
They didn’t make 24 hrs as you posted, that is followed by
