Earlier this week, the State’s Attorney released a report which indicated that excessive force was not used in the 2017 shooting that killed a 20-year-old from New Britain.

Today, family members of two teenagers who were shot at by Police, gathered for a news conference to address the report and dash cam video.

“It was horrific,” said Gwen Cordero, the Mother of 18-year-old Noah Young.

The deadly shooting that killed Zoe Dowdell occurred on Dec. 14, 2017 in the area of Chapman Street.

Young and 15-year-old Caleb Tisdol were passengers in a car that matched the description of a car suspected in a string of violent car jackings, according to Police.

Police believed the occupants in the car were armed and represented a significant threat to the community.

While Officers were attempting to stop the car, Dowdell hit at least two Police cruisers and then got stuck.

...

Dowdell drove forward in the general vicinity of several nearby Officers.

Officers on foot drew their guns and started yelling commands at the occupants inside the car.

The vehicle crashed into a nearby pickup truck and according to the report, this is when Officers fired a total of 28 shots in a span of 10 seconds.

Dowdell was shot and killed.

“It sickened me to my stomach,” said Cordero.

Officers found a loaded handgun on the driver’s side floor and a second handgun that was not loaded.

“Shoot them, kill them, do whatever they want to do to them and it’s fine and that’s the message that’s being sent to the black community,” said William Tisdol, the Father of Caleb Tisdol.

Dowdell was an aspiring rapper known as Gangstalicious to his fans.

Yet another “aspiring rapper” to nominate for a Model Citizen award.

If by “them” you mean criminals acting as described in the article, then yes: shoot them; kill them. The “white community” seems to understand these things; why does the “black community” seem to think they should get away with anything and everything?

Because their masters in the Democratic party say they should get away with anything and everything.

“Because their masters in the Democratic party say they should get away with anything and everything.”

There are lots and lots of evil people in our country, endlessly saying and doing evil things, and I can’t think of any way to stop them that wouldn’t anger God.
