..read on another web site that the shooter used an SKS. Anyone got verification of it?...
The buttstock on the rifle that he was photographed carrying butt up on his murderous day looked like an AK47. But only about 3” of it was visible.it looked like there was an AK style indentation or groove in the middle of the stock front to back on the buttstoc side. But, I’m not sure.
No, the guy in the picture wearing camo and having a rifle slung over his shoulder is NOT NOT NOT the shooter Micha Johnson.
The camo man in the parade picture was black protester Mark Hughes who was exercising his 2nd amendment right to open carry during the protest. The police contacted him and found he was completely unconnected to the assassination of white policemen.
This is just an overreaction by an ignorant MSM that doesn’t know it is legal to open carry in Texas.
Micah Johnson was the racist black assassin.
Mark Hughes was a black protester open carrying his rifle.
When I first saw the picture of Mark Hughes called a suspect, I was PRETTY DAM SURE that an assassin hell bent on murdering as many white police officers as possible, would very likely not be so idiotic as to telegraph that to police. You can be DEAD SURE that everywhere Mark Hughes went carrying that rifle, that there were 2 or 3 officers bird dogging him the entire way. There is no way he could have mounted a secret high position to begin assassinating white police with 2 or 3 officers watching every step he made.
