The race on the deceased didn’t matter it was the behavior which got him shot and it is documented in pictures. The cop that shop him was the one being aimed at. God help the other cop with the Taser if it had been a real gun. What a good guy but dead just the same.
Obama could put an end to this if he just took the time to say “Tragic incident, disturbed man threatened police with cylindrical device and refused their orders. Police have a right to defend themselves. Let’s watch the evidence as it comes out before getting ourselves in more trouble”. Instead he encourages continued disrespect of authority by giving credence to the discredited claims of BLM.
That being said, I can certainly understand the edginess for both police and black citizens. This situation is just going to get worse.

Here is my email to my assembly member:
Dear Assemblymember Weber
Im writing to express my opposition to the anti-2nd amendment bills currently being considered in the house and senate.
Im opposed to assembly bills 48, 187, and 760. These bills will raise taxes and reduce the availability of ammunition to California citizens. This will reduce the ability to train with firearms, hunt, target shoot, protect my family, and otherwise infringe on my 2nd amendment rights as guaranteed in the U.S. Bill of Rights.
Im opposed to AB231 to further restrict firearm storage in my own home.
There is no reason for these misguided bills since firearm crimes have not increased, but have decreased steadily for many years, while gun availability has risen significantly. The implementation costs are also not affordable to a cash strapped, overtaxed, and financially declining state. As with all these anti-bill of rights laws, you are penalizing law abiding Americans and creating criminals where there were none. Meanwhile violent criminals and gangs that commit gun crimes are emboldened and unaffected by the laws.
