‘Family Demands Answers’
The Other McCain ^ | 1 Aug 2026 | Robert Stacy McCain

Posted on 08/01/2026 7:31:42 PM PDT by Rummyfan

Say hello to Bryan Axel Ramirez Gomez and, while you’re at it, go ahead and say good-bye, because young Mr. Gomez shuffled off this mortal coil in February, after deciding to start a shootout with police in Elkhart, Indiana, which lasted only three seconds. What do you notice about the photo of Gomez? Does that jersey signify that he was a fan of the Chicago White Sox? Well, Elkhart is only 112 miles from Chicago, and I suppose it’s possible that Gomez was a White Sox fan, but a quick Google search indicates that wearing White Sox regalia is common among certain gangs affiliated with the Crips. Just had to point this out.

That was the headline from WNDU-TV, the NBC-owned affiliate in South Bend, about 20 miles from Elkhart, two days after the shooting...

This kind of story — “Family Demands Answers” — has become a media cliché in recent years. Anytime someone gets killed by cops, there is automatically the insinuation that the cops did something wrong, and the media promote this narrative. Simple question: Why did the family want to get Indiana State Police to take over the case? Was there any reason to suspect bias on the part of county prosecutor Vicki Becker, whose office was in charge of investigating the officer-involved shooting?

“Superior marksmanship by cops may seem like an unfair advantage to criminals who lose shootouts, but it’s not brutality.”

AMF. Good riddance. The gene pool improved just a little bit, world peace is aided and world hunger decreased. More similar work is needed.

Parents everywhere, don’t raise stupid children. They will be better off for your effort.

In a better world the 'press' would be asking 'what the hell's wrong with the parents of these criminals??
