This is a VERY good family and the police damn sure better leave them alone and not harass them in any manner. You’ve got to take care of your own when they are in trouble. These folks did what needed to be done.

Exactly why decent, law abiding black people need the 2d Amendment as much as everybody else.

At least the kidnapper died doing what he loved.
