Typical NPR coverage. They could have said: National Guard troops fatally shoot an armed man in downtown Memphis but that wouldn't give the impression that they shot an unarmed man, which is what they want you to think.

“...just before 4 am local time when they saw “an armed male carrying a handgun.” The man — identified by the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation as 20-year-old Tyrin Johnson...”

Da Yute shoulda stayed holed up in his Jomama’s basement that time of day.

Now we’ll all have to live that down.

Like the one lesbian woman who tried to hit an agent with the vehicle but then was shot and the one man who carried three extra magazines for his weapon and confronted agents on the sidewalk and was shot.

Spanberger and the next woke female socialist candidate (name?) winning said “Americans have been killed by the occupation force of these dangerous invaders.” Yeah, TWO, who put themselves in harm’s way while defying orders to get back.
They make it sound like agents sprayed crowds with automatic weapons and bazookas. BS.

What happened next was not immediately clear.

Note to Tyrone, or Malik, or Da’Quavious, or whatever the hell his name is… Don’t point your gun at a national guard detachment.

a man who was armed with a handgun ...

Next time, leave the gun and take the cannoli.

Interesting to know if the NG deployment has resulted in a reduction of crime - especially murders - might be a net positive.

If you don’t want to get killed don’t point your gun at law enforcement. By the way your gun is supposed to be HOLSTERED unless you intend to use it.
I assume the damn Democrats are up in arms and intend to prosecute to make an example why we should never, Ever defend our.

Sounds like a legitimate shoot to me. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. When do the riots start?

Let me guess, Tyrin is another relative of Obeyme.

Let's see.

Black NG shot a black dude.

Black NG shot a white dude.

IF it had been white NGs shooting a black dude that'd be the headline.

Memphis police said the man had "turned toward NG members with his weapon" before the National Guard soldiers fired their weapons and struck him.

Justifiable shooting. Case closed, except the msm will twist and turn the facts until even I will think that the National Guard are the bad guys.

Sounds like they are at least qualified with their individual weapons.

Memphis has one of the highest violent crime rates in the country

Yet NPR doesn't bother to report every time a black kills another black - only a cop or Guardsman.
