Violent clashes between police and protesters broke out in the streets of a working-class Memphis neighborhood after a 20-year-old black man was shot dead by U.S. Marshals during an attempted arrest in his family's front yard.

The violent clashes broke out after Brandon Webber was shot and killed by officers on Wednesday night as they tried to arrest him for outstanding felony warrants outside his home in Frayser in North Memphis.

The Tennessee Bureau of Investigations said officers went to the home at about 7pm to look for Webber who had outstanding felony warrants.

So, being a former honor student, a father of 2 and being enrolled at the University of Memphis doesn't cancel out felony warrants then? Why would the deceased pull a gun? Did the LEOs not announce? Sigh. Another aspiring 'wrapper' gettin' ready for college dead at the hands of the evil po-po.

So, were those kids in the home with him?
Was he really their father or just simply their manufacturer.

Deceptive headline, again. They weren’t seeking to arrest him for his student transcript and fatherhood, but for his felony warrants. An honest dealer would have had that bit prominently in its headline, and the other bits in the article, rather than the other way around.

:: He was “father of at least two” kids ::

Media trying to get ahead of the Candace Owens/#Blexit/#walkaway response about absent father’s in the black household.

Since the Obama cancer has been excised from our nation - we haven’t had cities burning in race riots. Quite an accomplishment considering how the media portrays President Trump as ‘divisive’ and worse.

Perhaps we could alleviate their sourness toward us after our Declaration of Independence by offering England and Wales statehood? Scotland can be expected to have another referendum to separate from the UK once Brexit is a reality (and unite with the EU).

Yeah. This is sort of like proclaiming Adolph Hitler was a wounded war veteran Factually, this is true. He even rode that shtick to garner quite a few votes in the Chancellor election.

I believe the correct term is baby daddy.

Kids will be better off without the influence of that thug in their life. He wouldn’t have been there for his kids. He’d been carrying on his crimes, more breeding, or locked in prison. They won’t miss anything.

Per Heavy.com looks like he’s got a record. Multiple minor traffic offenses, drugs charges, and a weapons offense.

Still can’t find anything on what the latest was for.
