What Happened To Sin'Zae Reed?

Since Sunday 1/1/2023, there were seven mass shootings in the U.S.

What happens when a Black person shoots a white person?

They obviously go to jail and are judged by the junk food media agitators for having some fault in their life. It is common that the far right wants Black America to condemn the actions of one Black extremist, one Black criminal or one Black politician.

According to the far right: White shooters are mentally ill. Black shooters are unrepentant criminals. Gay shooters are active groomers. Muslim shooters are terrorists. Hispanics and Asians shooters are illegal immigrants. Almost all mass shooters are registered Democrats because they have liked one thing common to the left.

It is amazing that Ohio continues to trend more Republican. The state has a 75% white population, slow growth in six of the state's largest cities. Columbus and Cincinnati are the only areas with population growth. 

Columbus is the second largest Midwestern city after Chicago. It is the largest city with population over 1 million and is the capital of the state.

The Columbus Division of Police is controversial. The police had many high profile police shootings, abuse of power during the George Floyd protests and the plot to set up adult entertainer/activist Stormy Daniels were notable controversies.

Now the Franklin County Prosecutor is facing controversy. They dropped the charges on a white suspect who was accused of murdering Sin'Zae Reed in October 2022.

Prosecutors filed a motion to dismiss the case in Franklin County Municipal Court after the suspect's arrest. At the time, prosecutors said the shooter alleged that he had fired shots at Reed in self-defense. 

Because the autopsy report had not been completed, there was no forensic evidence about the positioning of Reed's wounds to prove or disprove the shooter's claims. There is no statute of limitations for filing a murder charge, and charges could be refiled at a later date. 

Family members and advocates of the 13-year-old who was fatally shot in October at a Columbus Hilltop apartment complex, held a press conference there Sunday to demand authorities charge the man who killed him.

The event at the Wedgewood apartments was held just feet from where police allege 36-year-old shooter, also a resident of the complex, fatally shot Reed.

The shooter was initially charged with Reed's homicide and ordered held on $1 million bond, but charges later were dropped pending further police investigation into the shooter's claim of self-defense in the shooting.

Shooter claims self defense.

Megan Reed, Sin'Zae's mother, said her son will now always be a 13-year-old teenage boy that she can longer hold or hear him speak.

"All I'm asking for is justice for my baby — is that too much to give?" Reed said. "I will never stop until Sin'Zae gets justice, I will forever be his voice."

Reed and others at the press conference called for the immediate re-arrest of the shooter.

Ramon Obey II, president of JUST 614 and event organizer, said he was calling on members of the community to pressure the Franklin County Prosecutor's office to take action.

"This family has had to wait going on 90 days," Obey said. "90 days for a senseless murder."

The Franklin County Prosecutor's office said earlier this week that it has no additional comment on the case at this time because the case is ongoing.

Every community in the United States will eventually have a legacy. A legacy of tragedy. Gun violence, monkeypox and COVID-19 will affect your town, your family and your life. So I don't want to hear that bullshit about how gun reform is taking away your rights to own firearms.

I don't want to hear that protesting against police killing people of color is hate on cops in general. I don't want to hear talk about the coronavirus being a myth.

When you hear folks say "gun rights," what they really mean is that its white privilege. This good guy with a gun nonsense has to end. The cops didn't do nothing when children were shot inside a school. A security guard was shot dead trying to protect shoppers. A cop accidentally shot his own. The good guy who tried to stop a bad guy is outgunned and a part of the rule #3.

Remember #3 means: The "good guy with a gun" better be prepared to die if they want to stop a shooter.

I don't want to hear folks say masks and vaccine mandates impede their freedoms. It prevents a deadly outbreak from spreading. If you want to die from the coronavirus, that's on you. We lost over 1 million people from the coronavirus.

Sin'Zae Reed's mom demands Ohio prosecutors charged the shooter.

I don't want to hear the shit about guns saving lives. Cause a bullet does not have eyes and it's always likely gonna hit a target. These folks seem to not get it. These incidents are a tragic part of American history. Thoughts and prayers and your heart going out to the victims is not enough. It quite frankly is an insult. I am also tired of scapegoating Black on Black crime, Chicago, Baltimore and Democratic mayors for the nation's obsession to be numb to gun violence. You pretty much enable this nonsense by deflecting.

President Joe Biden is trying to curb gun violence. However, he has no support from Republicans. Most Democrats and America are for gun control measures. However the two Democrats in the Senate refuse to change the filibuster rules and its holding us back.

The National Rifle Association is always pushing against it. They will not relinquish from the narrative that guns are not saving lives. The Republicans aided by a fickle junk food media are openly encouraging anarchy and disruption in a desperate attempt for the Republicans to win back Congress and the White House. These agitators are calling for Biden to curb crime but will not help him. They want more guns on the street. It makes no sense.

So in closing, expect more.

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

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