I would like to see, on national TV, a bunch of parents of both black and white 18 year old young men. And hear how all of them feel about their own child if he were stealing cigars to make blunts out of, beating and threatening Oliver Minority shop owners, then when asked however rudely to get out of the road, reaching into a police car and attempting to smash the cop’s face, plus either reach for the gun or try and prevent the officer from getting his own gun out.
I personally would feel like my son, and I have a son almost that age, DESERVED to be shot. Maybe killed. And I love my son. No one, not even “my baby” is above the law. My son did not control his behavior enough to be treated with respect and make it into a court of law. I teach my kids to be extremely respectful of law enforcement. They have guns. They deal with the scum of the earth every day. Don’t Anger them.
I am aghast that anyone else feels differently. I could not care less what race.
Correction: older minority shop owner
