What Happened To Micheal Jones?

Mississippi man was murdered in Bessemer, Alabama after he traveled to meet a seller of an iPhone.

No good deed goes unpunished. Unfortunately a Mississippi man was lured to his death in suburban Birmingham, Alabama on a promise of a used phone.

The shooting of Micheal Jones was shoved to the side because of the high profile incidents involving Black men and women in the United States.

Not to mention the many incident in the United States where gun violence reached a peak in St. Louis, Kansas City, Chicago, Cleveland and Baltimore. Memorial Day weekend in these communities are the most dangerous for some who live in an area where poverty, blight and lack of resources. It hurts people of color. African Americans, Native Americans and non-white Hispanics who live with a family member who speaks Spanish often are facing hardships.

The United States officially surpassed the 100,000 confirmed deaths from the COVID-19 pandemic. I stated that we have over 115,000 deaths and nearly 3 million people affect by the coronavirus.

Tensions are rising in Minneapolis. The Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan area is experiencing another night of unrest. The far-right are not upset that George Floyd was killed by the law. They're upset that folks vandalized and stole out of Target store in the city. Okay, they're more concerned about getting haircuts and complaining about you wearing mask in public.

After the police used mace and rubber bullets on Black Lives Matter protesters, the anger boiled to this. Also we've heard news a business owner shot a man allegedly caught stealing during the unrest.

We're coming into the Long Hot Summer. This election year is going to be a nailbiter. Donald J. Trump just needs to win Wisconsin and Florida to secure a second term. He has a 52% chance of winning reelection.

Now, the family members of Micheal Jones said he didn't deserve this fate.

His body was found in the brush of this abandoned property.

His heartbroken wife knew that her husband was brave and confident that this transaction was going to quick. She felt like she could have went with him to at least be there. Bethie Jones and nearly dozens of his relatives drove to Bessemer, a suburb of Birmingham to place a floral cross at the are where he was killed.

"The bottom line, this was entrapment," said Martha Salone, the sister-in-law to Micheal. "This was Micheal's trusting. It's like a wounded animal. He was all alone."

Jones, 45 went missing last Wednesday after leaving work in Mississippi. His body was discovered on Friday at a vacant home in Bessemer. He left work in the early morning.

Jones lived in Columbus, Mississippi about a 1 hour and 45 minute drive to Birmingham.

He worked at the Steel Dynamics/Severstal. He was supposed to return back to work at 6pm on Wednesday night. The family tracked his phone to Tuscaloosa, and then Bessemer.

They found out the grim news when he didn't return calls. He was on the social media app Letgo to buy an iPhone 11 from a guy.

The body was found by the family. His vehicle was found a few blocks down in the city.

Micheal was devoted to his wife Bethie and God.

The Alabama Bureau of Investigation, Jefferson County Sheriff and Bessemer Police are calling this a first-degree murder. They said the terrorist(s) lured the victim to a specific location in the city for a transaction. The intentions were to rob the victim. I am guessing that he put up a fight and the terrorist(s) shot him. They took his properties and left in his vehicle. They ended up ditching the vehicle and took off into the city.

The criminal charges will be murder, homicide with intent of theft, kidnapping and grand theft auto.

In the state of Alabama, you can get the DEATH card if convicted.

Jones leaves behind a 21-year old daughter and 18-year old son.



Brother-in-law Joshua Tatum said that Micheal was like a good hearted man.

"My prayer was let us find Micheal to bring him home," he said. I wanted him alive, but we wanted to find his body. Now he's heading back to Mississippi. They lured him in. They went down on the price, made him come here and they did what they wanted to do. If I had been Micheal, ti wouldn't have went down. I would told him to turn around."

Joshua added "He was a good husband to our sister. He was a friendly guy. He'd always help you out if you needed something. You called him and he'd be there as soon as he got off work. He didn't not deserve this. This was wrong. This was a family man. He didn't do dope. He didn't drink or hang out at clubs or go to casinos. He was a churchgoing man. An usher at church. He was a giver. To take his life was uncalled for. We all are hurting. He was a godly person."

For a suburban community of 28,000, Bessemer has 15 homicides this year alone.

Justice For Michael .
As God Gives me strength, I’m not going to EVER give up. We WILL find out who did this to Michael!!!
My husband Was a Child of the King and  this WILL BE SOLVED!!!
NEVER GIVING UP.

Nonetheless the opinion, the fact matters. What happened and what should of not happened!

The status quo of the gun culture. Now is not the time to talk about gun violence!

If there were more security guards and more civilians (aka the good guy) with a gun.......

They learn how to use firearms from watching (or listening) to gangsta rap.

They watch violent movies.

They don't have fathers or mothers in their lives and it results in them committing criminal acts.

Look at his history with police....

Blah, blah, blah....

Micheal leaves behind a wife, son, daughter and many family members.

Moments of silence, street memorials, naming of public places, saying "Your heart goes out to...," lowering of flags and hashtags are platitudes. They are a huge waste of time. It's a man-made crisis created by a lazy ass government. They are enabling this. Donald J. Trump, Congress and the National Rifle Association are a bunch of lily-livered cowards. They are numb to gun violence.

The "good guy" with a firearm is the most dangerous person to have a firearm. Matter of fact, the NICE GUYS are often the ones who are spurned by society. Bad relationships, losing your job, jealousy over promotions, family feuds and racism are typical NICE GUY issues.

NICE GUYS ARE THE MOST DANGEROUS INDIVIDUALS WITH A FIREARM.

THE NICE GUY GETS SPURNED BY SOCIETY. THEY TAKE REVENGE ON SOCIETY.

RESTRAINING ORDERS ARE JUST A PIECE OF PAPER. THEY WILL NOT (I REPEAT) STOP A "MAD" INDIVIDUAL FROM OBTAINING A FIREARM.

Don't you just want to scream!?

Scream in the faces of these damn lawmakers whenever they offer their "thoughts and prayers" to every fucking mass shooting in the United States. They will offer their condolences and say a word vomit how they sympathize with the deceased. Some here will tell us that "now isn't the time to talk." Others will say that "the NRA has too much influence on gun laws."

We will talk about this for a few days and then we're off to another controversy. The next controversy would either be something done by Trump, a politician, an entertainer or we will experience another mass shooting. The next mass shooting will be even worse than the last one.

I repeat myself over and over again! I use the same old copy and paste. I hear the same trolls saying that there's nothing we can do. I keep hearing "concern" trolls telling us that it's their own fault for their own deaths. I hear the same old talking points about "good guys with guns" and "god's given rights."

Every time these folks offer "thoughts and prayers," "their condolences," "their hearts going out to," and "their apologies," they are not sincere. For every naming of a road, park, bench, building and holiday, it won't matter to the community. For every time they lower flags, offer moments of silence and candlelight vigils, we just offer "feel good-isms."

The website Officer Down is a memorial to those who were killed in the line of duty. Those who don't get their names mentioned in the junk food media. Also the website the National Gun Violence Memorial also keeps record of the many individuals killed by gun violence.

We have mass shootings in the United States everyday. We are the only country in the world that continues to do nothing about this. Donald J. Trump, Congress, the National Rifle Association and agitators in the junk food media have moved on from dealing with this. They're too busy sniping over partisan blame games. With Trump being impeached while in office, he's unlikely to focus on gun violence.

Trump and lawmakers elected to federal office made politics extremely toxic. It's not just the fault of our dear leader and lawmakers, but relentless agitators on the 24/7 cable news channels. They are profiting off division and divisiveness. The internet is also a problem. It's is a breeding ground for potential mass shooters. Facebook, Twitter, Google and other social media outlets have been "ground zero" for disinformation, partisan threats and social activism. Incels and social outcasts find their outlets on sites that inspire them to cause harm to their fellow human beings.

It never happens in your community.......! Until it does! Every community in the United States will eventually have a legacy. A legacy of tragedy. Gun violence will affect your town, your family and your life. So I don't want to hear that bullshit about how "guns save lives." They don't. The only thing that survives a gun shooting is the gun.

FOR EVERY BAD COP, THERE WILL BE A DEAD COP!

I DON'T BELIEVE EVERYTHING ON THE INTERNET OR THE COP'S VERSION.

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

THERE IS NO GOD!

GOD IS NOT FIXING THIS!

We haven't forgotten about the many mass shootings in the United States. COVID-19 doesn't stop individuals from picking up firearms and killing others.

The terrorist is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

Please do not use the services of (Jeffery) Shaun King. He is not a member of Black Lives Matter. He often exploits the pain of the Black community for his charity scams.
