What Happened To Brandon Webber?

American father of two killed by Memphis Police.
I have family in Memphis. They're on my mother's side and they are aware of the problems plaguing Tennessee's largest city. The city has a population of 656,000 residents and has a 64% African American population. The mayor is white. The U.S. Representative is white. A handful of state legislature members are Black and white. The city sits on the Mississippi River and is part of a tri-state region. Arkansas and Mississippi are the states that surround Memphis. The city is a halfway point between Nashville, Birmingham, St. Louis, Jackson and Little Rock.

The junk food media often call violent protests by Black people as riots. Whenever white people are violent after winning (or losing) sporting events, the junk food media calls it stupid (and out of control) silliness.

They often claim the police aren't doing anything to stop unrest. They often say Black leaders will never speak out about violence in the urban centers. It's ridiculous that Black people are told to calm themselves whereas white folks are killing people in mass shootings or causing unrest and no one is telling them to calm themselves.

Fox News, Sinclair Media, The Daily Mail, The Drudge Report, Breitbart, Infowars and The Gateway Pundit are notorious peddlers of white extremism and racial labeling. They seethe on this type of stuff. They use this to recruit more Republicans and white extremists to run for elections.

CNN, ABC, NBC, CBS, PBS, Bloomberg, local media and news print are often following along with the notion that "rioting" is sparked by Black outrage towards police. That's not often the case. If you go back to the last year post of a Black man being harassed by cops after a white person called 911 on him, he knew how Memphis Police got down. A few weeks later a cop was shot and killed. Then of course, Memphis Police are brutal towards people of color.

The junk food media often loves to dramatize these events.

They often dredge up the victim's history with law enforcement, slander family members who speak out against police brutality, call unrest "riots", call them thugs (animals) and unruly, ungodly un-Americans.

Also the far-white picks the blacks out the hat.

Coonservatives like Kevin Jackson, Candace Owens, Diamond & Silk, Jesse Lee Peterson and Larry Elder often pop their ugly heads out of the hole.

They're needed to counter Black outrage.

They shuck and jive. They often single out Barack Obama, Rev. Al Sharpton, Rev. Jesse Jackson, Michelle Obama, Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ), Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) and Black Lives Matter in their word vomit. And yes, they attack Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) for speaking out against police brutality against people of color.
The far-white often see Black people posing with money as a justification for criminality. They often claim cops did their jobs in killing unarmed people of color. They often claim that Black men are natural born criminals.
Amazing that the black coonservatives hate Scott just as much as they hate Obama.

Again, why do I repeat myself. I've said time after time.

GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE THREAT IN THE UNITED STATES.

BAD COPS WILL GET GOOD COPS KILLED.

CONSERVATIVES SAY THAT THERE ARE MORE BLACK CHILDREN LIVING IN SINGLE PARENT HOUSEHOLDS WITHOUT A FATHER. 

WELL THAT'S FUNNY! WHEN THE POLICE SHOOT AN UNARMED MAN, THAT COULD HAVE BEEN THE CHILD'S FATHER.

THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS, THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS. THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS WON'T HEAL THE WOUNDED OR BRING BACK THE DEAD. LOWERING FLAGS, STREET MEMORIALS, MOMENTS OF SILENCE, SAYING "YOUR HEART GOING OUT" AND PRAYER ARE PLATITUDES. THIS IS A MAN-MADE CRISIS. OUR LAWMAKERS ARE NUMB TO GUN VIOLENCE IN THE UNITED STATES. DONALD J. TRUMP, CONGRESS, THE NATIONAL RIFLE ASSOCIATION ARE LILY-LIVERED COWARDS. THEY ENABLE GUN VIOLENCE BY ROLLING BACK LAWS THAT KEEP FIREARMS OUT OF POTENTIAL THREATS TO SOCIETY. FIREARMS KILL 96 PEOPLE A DAY. NO ONE SEEMS TO CARE ABOUT GUN VIOLENCE UNTIL IT HAPPENS TO FALL UPON THEM.

There was unrest in the city of Memphis, Tennessee where cops shot an unarmed man. The junk food media will gladly report that the man had outstanding felony warrants and they saw a weapon was on him. Hell, it's open carry in Tennessee. I guess if a Black man is armed with a firearm in "open carry" in Tennessee, he deserved his fate regardless.

How many white men got away with shooting a killing police officers without being killed?
When there's unrest in the Black community, the junk food media calls it rioting. When white folks cause unrest, it's called unruliness.
Well let's go to California where a sheriff's deputy was shot at point blank range in the head by a Utah man who was considered a risk to his life and others. He was caught without a bullet fired. The deputy was killed. More on that later.

The unrest was sparked by a police killing of 20 year old Brandon Webber.

His girlfriend and mother of his child was pregnant with the second. The trauma led to her going into labor and the stress is getting to the family.

Brandon was a good guy. He was a good father.
The U.S. Marshals and Memphis Police shot and killed Webber outside his family's home.

Webber was shot and killed by officers on Wednesday as they tried to arrest him for outstanding warrants outside his home in the North Memphis neighborhood of Frayser.

Webber leaves behind a two year old son and a newborn daughter. His girlfriend Alorea Hardwick went into labor after this. The junk food media haven't reported on the status of mother or the child.

On social media, the grieving girlfriend sobs as she is going into labor knowing that Brandon will never get that moment of fatherhood and her children will grow up never knowing their father.

Webber had a minor history of non violent crimes. Some were for possession of drug paraphernalia and marijuana.

Shortly before he was shot, he posted on social media that he was sitting in a car, rapping and smoking a blunt. In the video, he noticed police and he laughed and said they would "have to kill me" before the video went dark. The video was removed from social media. However, it may still exist.

The Tennessee Bureau of Investigations said the officers went to the home to arrest him on outstanding warrants. They said that Webber got into a vehicle and tried to flee. They said that he exited with a weapon. Marshals opened fire on him and killing him instantly.

Jaleta Webber said to the junk food media to not tarnish her son's reputation. He was a caring father and had a future. He enrolled in the University of Memphis and had clearly knew his rights given the most recent police shootings of unarmed Black people.





Webber believes that he wasn't a gang banger or a thug. He wanted to get his life together and marry his girlfriend. Yeah, he smoked a few blunts, but it wasn't like he robbed a bank or killed anyone.

As the police were taping off the scene, a group of individuals came through and confronted the Marshals and police. They were angry that the cops killed another Black person.
This was simmering for a while.
They got lit. They decided to react to the killing in fashion.

Cops were pelted with rocks, bricks, bottles, and glass.

Two dozen officers and two journalists were injured during the confrontation. Six officers were taking to the hospital for minor injuries.

Officers decided to cordoned the neighborhood. They threw tear-gas and pepper grenades at the people who were throwing objects.

The Shelby County boys and the city police signaled a '99. The county boys decided break up noise.

Anyway, Gov. Bill Lee, Donald J. Trump, Mike Pence, Sen. Lamar Alexander (R-TN), Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN), the nine U.S. Representatives, Mayor Jim Strickland and local officials are notified and demand immediately calm.

Those involved in violence will likely be arrested for disturbing the peace and physical assault on a police officer. These charges could put the individuals in the iron college for up to ten years.

Those involved are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

The cops and U.S. Marshals involved are in the freezer pending an investigation to whether deadly force was justified.

Yeah, the junk food media will by more sympathetic towards the cops. They will say that he had a weapon. They will say he has a criminal history. They will do everything in their power to paint Brandon as the bad guy and the cops as the good guys.

If there's more unrest, expect the national agitators to throw their two cents in it.

Expect Anderson Cooper, Chris Hayes and others to make a trip to Memphis. Expect Sean "Softball" Hannity to have someone like Lawrence Jones go to Memphis to rile up folks with his coonery.

More developments on the unrest in Memphis if necessary.
