“Don’t Crash; Don’t Shoot”

Too soon for Grandma to start cashing in?

Where’s his elementary school photo already?

[I want the USA back]

Killing justified. BLUE lives matter.

[hal ogen]

Good shooting , Officer. Civilization thanks you.

By “working-class” do they mean “Amish”?

Sounds like not enough have been arrested yet; I’d work over the group who likely fed the fires for hours on social media for inciting a riot. Repeat until stupidity ends.

[freedomjusticeruleoflaw]

Armed officers..... Armed? Duh

[Former Proud Canadian]

I guess this “community” would rather not have fugitives arrested. Ok.

Passion Anderson, a 34-year-old student, drove her 13-year-old son to the scene early Thursday, after protesters had gone and the scene had calmed down. She grew up in Memphis, but left to Ohio before moving in November to the Frayser neighborhood, a mostly low- to middle-income area north of downtown.

Anderson said she worries about her son’s safety every day.

“I just want him to see this, know what’s going on, to be conscious,” she said from the driver’s seat of her car, with her son in the passenger seat. “I fear for him all the time.”

Doggedly determined not to learn the essential lessons.

Why was I not surprised by the content of the article?

Is this the neighborhood affectionately known as Little Mogadishu?

Suicide by cop.

I lived in Memphis for 16 months - about 20 years ago. I quite liked it.

I thought I saw every part of the city, but never visited Frayser. Probably zero reason to go there....

When will cops learn that tomorrow is another day and you don’t have to get the guy today?

“McAlister did not say how many marshals fired or how many times the man was shot.”

In that he is dead, it would appear he was sufficiently shot. The cost to society of responding to the riot is likely less than the cost of the deceased incarceration and trial and subsequent incarceration.

I’ve driven in every state in the union except five on the east coast. I visited Memphis 8 years ago. That is one city to which I will never return. What a pit.

[Bayan]

Time to use lethal force on these mobs. They do this because they know they can get away with it.

"Mah boy, he was a good boy. He dindu nuffin!"

Three arrested and 25 officers injured. This should be turned around with 25 rioters hospitalized and three officers given medals for valor.

"Shortly before he was shot on Wednesday, Webber posted a live video on Facebook that showed him in a car, rapping and apparently smoking a marijuana cigarette. In the video, he looked out the window and said he saw police. With a laugh, he looked directly into the camera and said the officers would 'have to kill me.'"

DONE.
