They don't even know his name

Saint Louis police officer Tamarris L. Bohannon, 29, who was shot in the head died Sunday, Aug. 29, 2020 after responding to a shooting on the city's south side.

His name was Tamarris Bohannon. He was 29 years old when killed in the line of duty in St. Louis. He leaves behind a wife and three children.

By all accounts he was a good man and good cop

ST. LOUIS – The family of the St. Louis police officer who was shot and killed wants to make sure he is remembered for his commitment to his community – and more importantly, his family.

“Family was priority. That was on top of his list. It was very important,” Alfred Bohannon said.

Bohannon’s son, Tamarris, was shot Saturday while responding to a call in the Tower Grove South neighborhood.

His family is still in shock over the tragedy.

“It’s been hard. Very difficult. Trying to process, to understand, the loss of a son,” Alfred Bohannon said.

Tamarris Bohannon, 29, graduated from Oakville High School. He married his high school sweetheart and was the father of three children.

You probably don't know his name because he was unimportant to the media. He was less important to Black Lives Matter and Antifa.

The New Orleans Saints don't give a damn about him and neither does the NFL.

On the other hand, they care very much about Jacob Blake. They love Jacob Blake. They worship Jacob Blake.

Jacob Blake needs a 'miracle' to walk after shooting: lawyer

Jacob Blake had a criminal history and an outstanding warrant. From the AP

Online court records indicate Kenosha County prosecutors charged Blake on July 6 with third-degree sexual assault, trespassing and disorderly conduct in connection with domestic abuse. An arrest warrant was issued for Blake the following day.
Also:
Jacob Blake, 24, of Racine, was charged Monday in Racine County Circuit Court with one felony count of resisting arrest causing a soft tissue injury to a police officer and one misdemeanor count each of carrying a concealed weapon, carrying a firearm while intoxicated, endangering safety-use of a dangerous weapon, and disorderly conduct. If convicted, he will face up to 8-1/2 years in prison and/or up to $50,000 in fines.
He had an outstanding warrant for sexual assault. This is that report:

Police were summoned to the girlfriend's residence and tried to apprehend Blake. He once again failed to comply with a proper police order. He fought with the officers and was tasered twice with no effect. Armed with a knife, he then attempted to enter a car having three of his children in it. He was told to drop the knife. He did not.

Now- if you're the police officer, what do you do? You have a split second to make a decision. Blake might have been going into his car to harm one or more of his kids or hold them hostage.

You don't know.

I've seen the argument "Why so many bullets?" yet absolutely no one can tell me exactly how to determine how many are the proper number.

Perhaps you ask him.

Too late, the kids are dead.

Tamarris Bohannon, an American hero. Good men rush toward the sound of danger so that others may live in peace.

In the movies (usually) one bullet kills instantly. Likewise, even if wearing a suit of armor, if you are touched by a sword, you drop and die right away.

Reality is different. There was a recent video of some guy walking down a sidewalk with a hostage, and he had a knife to the throat of the hostage. I think he had just left a library, or something. The cops talked to him nicely and tried to get him to give up, but eventually they saw a chance and they took the shot. Once the hostage was away, they took lots of shots. It took forever for the guy to go down -- it was like Sonny Corleone getting hit at the tollbooth. Sometimes it's like that.

You can bet that the NFL won’t allow any players to Tamarris Bohannon or David Dorn on their helmets.
I almost wish I watched Football so I could boycott them.

White scum murdered him, yet BLM still doesn't think his life matters.

Gorgeous family. How sad. He’s gone, and the scummy guy who took him out will be walking the streets soon, if he already isn’t.
