Family of Ma'Khia Bryant speaks out after teen is killed by Columbus police
NBC via Yahoo ^ | April 22nd, 2021 | Minyvonne Burke

The family of Ma'Khia Bryant, whom police fatally shot while responding to a 911 call, remembered the teen as a "beautiful" and "sweet" girl and questioned why a Columbus, Ohio, officer shot her.

Don Bryant, a cousin of Ma'Khia's mother, said he was tuned into the Derek Chauvin trial when he learned that Ma'Khia, who was 16, had been killed. He immediately called her mother, Paula Bryant.

"It was chaotic. Nobody deserves that," he said Wednesday. "Who could expect something like this to happen in their family?"

Paula Bryant said: "Ma'Khia was a sweet little girl. She didn't deserve what happened to her."

That was my first thought. Apparently they think the girl in pink deserved to be stabbed.

I would agree....either Ma’Khia or the pink-suit girl were doomed to die that day. You can pick either one at random, but it was just going to happen.

I would be curious to know what the pink-suit girl had said to aggravate the situation...but we’ll probably never know that part of the story.

Now a second video (on Rumble) has come out, from a neighbor’s security camera across the street.

It shows the officer arrive, and try to apprehend her when she knocked the first gal down. She evaded him, and ran at Pinkie with the knife, and grabbed Pinkie with her free hand, and started to stab. As she was running, the officer drew, and as she grabbed Pinkie, he rapid-fired 4 shots.

Again, the knife is clearly visible.

From what I read, and who knows for sure, but the article said it was an argument over who is supposed to clean the house, or something like that. It’s not worth it, whatever the cause.

How much extortion (no riots) money do they want?

What is Sharpton’s cut? Anyone seen Jesse’s ambulance yet? Where’s that slimebag lawyer Crump? Oh, I forgot to look in the gutter. My bad!

#9. Ma’Khia’s eyelash salon would feature “fresh-cut” eyelashes.

I’d like to know when Pinkie is going to publicly thank the cop for saving her life.

I can’t believe they’re not burying this story after the video came out. Are they just so emboldened they think they can foist this fraud on us?

After the "election", why should the doubt it?

As Dennis Prager says “truth is not a left wing value”.
