Where’s Black Lives Matter? Pregnant St. Louis woman shot to death on her front porch in front of toddler
Law Enforcement Today ^ | September 27, 2020 | Mitch McKinley

ST. LOUIS, MO – Rahmeisha Smith had not told anyone in her family that she was pregnant. She was planning to surprise the father. She wrote it all down on a box she was going to use as part of that surprise.

Family members of Smith discovered the box.

“We went in her house to search through her stuff she wrote down on a box it was going to be a surprise for the child’s father she didn’t tell the family she didn’t tell anybody,” said one of her sisters.

It turns out that it was a secret she never got to share. She was shot and killed on her front porch last Thursday.

According to another of her sisters, Kita Dickson:

“She was shot in the shoulder, back and four to the head. Do y’all know what y’all did to us? Do y’all know what y’all did?”

As reported by KSDK 5, the local NBC affiliate, the 24-year-old mother was found unresponsive on her front porch by detectives investigating the shooting.

Dickson said that Smith’s 2-year-old daughter was right beside her when she was found.

“I have to look at my niece that keeps saying where mommy? Where mommy? How we goin explain this to a 2-year-old, where mommy at.” said Dickson.

Relatives want to know what neighbors may have seen.

“It ain’t no snitching when its my loved one. So, I don’t care, like literally, please? It’s not another unsolved murder that’s going to get pushed under the rug like all these murders and nothing getting solved. What y’all waiting on? For them to keep going by and shooting innocent people?” said Dickson.

Neighbors who spoke with the station would not go on camera. They said that Smith was sitting on her porch when they heard shots ring out.

Police have very little to go on at this point.

Was the father also her husband? Not clear.

I would think he’s going to be visited by the detectives shortly.

Not random shooting, but given the world today she may have been a random target.

“It ain’t no snitching when its my loved one. So, I don’t care, like literally, please?....”

But it is snitching when it’s somebody else?

Got it.

This shows how much of a joke BLM. This happens everyday in many inner cities. Yet BLM ignores it ever happens. Good ay to eliminate one’s responsibilitie to the woman and the child.

Four head shots seem like it was close range. Wonder if the father of the first child is the same as father of the second child?

"She was planning to surprise the father" "...it was going to be a surprise for the child’s father" Pretty clear to me. Father ≠ Husband.

Another guess: This father is not the father of her two year old.

Perhaps the father found out she was pregnant before she thought the father knew? No real evidence to support that except ... this sounds like a hit. And who hits a random woman?

They willingly kill blacks and the media willingly ignores the killings as long as there’s no Whitey or no cop to blame.

This is a murder the black community should be outraged about. A pregnant mother shot down while sitting on her porch with her 2 year old daughter. She wasn't a criminal resisting arrest and fighting with the police. She was shot at least six times with her daughter right next to her. Blm will remain silent because the race of the killer isn't part of their false narrative. Black people are being murdered everyday in their neighborhoods and their killers are black.

“They willingly kill blacks and the media willingly ignores the killings as long as there’s no Whitey or no cop to blame.”

It’s that simple.

If black lives mattered, witnesses would be heroes, not snitches.

If black lives mattered, the solve rate for black murder victims in Chicago would be a lot higher than 20%.

If black lives mattered, murders in the US would drop by half.

Democrat run cities where the power structure encourages rioting and the Democrat Party indirectly encourages attacks on police. The voters will never change their shooting gallery cage. They don’t like it but they are more comfortable with it than with the thought that they might be governed by a party that doesn’t promise them free stuff and doesn’t encourage them to get their Reparations. We are coexisting with a barbarian population that does not have the benefit of a real tribal structure. It is better that some cities cater to them as that concentrates them away from more civilized cities. In those cities it becomes rule by the baddest.

Well per this excerpt nobody knew she was pregnant, so if that’s true then that was not the motive.
