A GoFundMe set up by his cousin includes this note:
Brandon is leaving behind 4 kids that will grow up fatherless because MPD and the U.S Marshals made a mistake. They must be held accountable. If you know Brandon you know all he wanted was to be the best father he could for his children.

".... Officers said they saw Webber get into a vehicle and that he then proceed[ed] to ram task force vehicles several times before exiting with a weapon. Marshals then opened fire on Webber. He died at the scene...."

Sounds like your normal, red-blooded American kid who was doing nuffin' wrong and the police decided to just kilt him for no reason. /s/

Glock and a big roll of bills. Man was in the drug business and probably making good money at it. Probably the reason for the Federal indictments.

“Where, oh where, does a 20 year old yout, with no visible means of income, get that much pure cash???”

The lemonade stand was very productive last year. Hot summers in Memphis.

“And what was he using the gun for??”

Lemonade stands are notorious for attracting Riff-raff. Just for self defense.

“A GoFundMe set up by his cousin.”

So what, the guy’s a thug. But we can learn something here. Blacks will stick together no matter what the facts are if they believe there was injustice done to one of their own. Like or not, this gives them power to effect the change they want. We also see this with the gay movement.

It’s too bad that conservatives espousing liberty are pretty much doormats.

He wasn’t very circumspect in running his business. Probably what caused him to get multiply indicted.

Look like the new corvette.

He went from having 1 kid to the GoFund saying he had 4. Guess he couldn’t keep track of the ho’s.

These guys also refer to themselves as “entrepreneurs”. = that’s ghetto code for drug dealer.

If Red Buttons were alive, he’d point out
the unfairness of honoring this feral animal
when the Boston shooter didn’t even get a dinner.
