Mississippi woman was called a "black bitch" by a white server after he handed her a receipt.
A woman order food from an Oxford, Mississippi restaurant and ended up getting more than the bill. She was called a Black bitch by one of the servers and it appeared on her receipt.
This employee at this Mississippi restaurant thought it was funny to call a customer a bitch.
Alexia Washington was eating at Who Dat's on Friday. She ordered food and was horrified that receipt had that offensive slur on it.
Washington said that she immediately reported this to the manager who made the employee apologize.
However she was disturbed by the actions and decided to make an example out of him.
She posted on social media slamming what she believes is outright racism in the era of Donald J. Trump. A person who embellishes the negatives of America itself.
"I didn't have any type of hostility. He didn't have any hostility with me.
Her friend Jake Smith (under Jakez Smith) posted this on social media.
Washington had posted her response online but had to scrub it after she got racist remarks and death threats.
It went viral and it forced the owner of Who Dat's, Wylie Coleman to formally apologize. He also said that the employee in question was fired out the cannon.
"I seek justice for this hate crime and I will no longer remain silent," Washington wrote. "I’ve lived in Oxford for 5 years and I’m still having to deal with this type of ignorance. I’m not a rude or hateful person. I was not rude when I was at this establishment and was greeted with this kind of service. I will not stand for it."
Coleman said "the employee responsible did not represent us as a business or personality. We do not feel this way about women or condone any racial identifier. We feel identities of sex & race should be communicated in a formal & professional manner in every place of business & we feel like it is most important to have employees that already have that professionalism behind closed doors.
"There is no justice to this immediately & we will respond to everyone in time." the post continued. "We apologize about this situation and will grow from it."
Mississauga woman was accused by an Old Navy employee of theft.
A woman in Canada was accosted by a cashier at an Old Navy. This happened at Mississauga, Ontario. The city of Mississauga has a population of 859,000 residents.
The Square One Shopping Centre is one of the largest shopping plazas in Ontario.
Lisa Calderon posted footage on Facebook of her interaction with an Old Navy employee at the mall.
She was confronted by Stephanie who accused her of shoplifting out of the store. She grabbed Lisa's wrist and refused to let her go after Stephanie claimed she didn't pay for a top she was wearing.
Calderon gets riled up and says she will press charges if the worker didn't let go.
The worker asked her, "Did you pay for this shirt at Old Navy, the tag is still on it."
Calderon repeatedly told the worker she didn't steal the item. She then records the encounter and soon security comes. Security along with the manager calm the situation.
Eventually, Calderon agreed to return to Old Navy, where the manager apologized and admitted the employee had no right to put her hands on Calderon.
Canadian woman calls the law on a Black woman she accused of shoplifting.
"I would've been more calm and understanding if she didn't accuse me first, and would've been happy to show my receipt, especially because I voiced my racial profile complaint to the employee before I left the store," said Calderon.
"This needs to stop, [this worker] had no right to aggressively lay her hands on me and accuse me of stealing a $13 dollar top, had she not done that, this situation would've ended quietly."
The worker was fired out the cannon and Old Navy swiftly apologized for the encounter.
Even in Canada, women of color are under attack. It's not just here in the United States. White people continue to use their privilege to undermine people of color.
Donald J. Trump is not just a problem in the United States but in Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom and France. Everything he does affects everyone.
Thoughts and prayers, thoughts and prayers. Thoughts and prayers won't heal the wounded or bring back the dead. Memorials, street graffiti, lowering of flags, saying "your heart goes out to," moments of silence and prayers are platitudes. This is a man-made crisis. Our lawmakers are numb to gun violence. Donald J. Trump, Congress and the National Rifle Association are a bunch of lily-livered cowards. They continue to enable gun violence by allowing potential threats to obtain firearms. No one should live in fear of a mass shooting. You're not safe in government buildings, nightclubs, schools, universities, churches, mosques, synagogues, the workplace, places of interest and the home.
GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE THREAT IN THE UNITED STATES.
There was a shooting inside a California Costco. Three people were shot. One of the victims died.
The terrorist was arrested. Assuming the terrorist is white.
Lt. Jeff Edwards of the Corona police said the terrorist was immediately released to the public.
The shooting stemmed from an argument inside the Costco. The relationship between the victims and the terrorist was unknown.
Another mass shooting in the United States. This happened in Corona, California. The shooter was caught. Who actually takes the blame? (Expect trolls to pick the dumbest answers)
The incident is not believed to be a domestic dispute. Police aren't looking for anyone else in this latest mass shooting. Officers found that four people were down inside the Costco. The suspect, the killed shopper and two other shoppers. The person killed wasn't identified until the family notification.
Three lives were affected by a mass shooter.
Some folks were upset that Costco had emergency doors that wouldn't open. Some were trying to flee the store. A witness said that he and his girlfriend heard four shots and tried to escape through the exits but the emergency door couldn't open. Costco had no comment on the matter other than ensuring that those injured are in their "thoughts."
This type of stuff happens everyday.
Donald J. Trump, Mike Pence, Gov. Gavin Newsom, Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA), Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA), the 53 U.S. Representatives of California will do their usual thoughts and prayers.
They will offer their condolences and say a word vomit. 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. If this happened at a school or a nightclub, this would drive agitators to the scene to do sympathy/survivor stories.
Gun violence is an everyday thing in the United States. We need to change the norm. We need to vote out the status quo. Republicans and Democrats who are embolden by the gun lobby and special interest groups need to be booted out. I mean they really need to be booted out.
Phoenix Metro Police officers point their guns at an unarmed Black family.
BE WARNED THE IMAGES AND VIDEO FOOTAGE ARE GRAPHIC.
Yeah, this is disturbing. It's really bad for the Phoenix Metro Police. They are seriously doing damage control after two of their cops telling a man and his pregnant girlfriend to get the fuck out their car or he'll put a fucking cap in their head.
Oh, yeah!
BAD COPS WILL GET GOOD COPS KILLED. GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE THREAT IN THE UNITED STATES.
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.
Dravon Ames and Iesha Harper are filing a $10 million lawsuit against the law agency after two of their officers used excessive force and threatened to shoot them in an escalating encounter caught on camera.
Ames, 22 and Harper, 24 were pulled over by the law near 36th and Roosevelt Streets on May 29.
They allege the cops pointed a gun at their children, threatened them and physically harmed Ames and their daughter all because the child took a doll from a dollar store.
Another angle of the incident filmed by a different resident of the apartment complex where Ames and his pregnant fiancee were dropping off their kids with a babysitter show a Phoenix police officer trying to yank the child from the mother's arms. pic.twitter.com/pTb07lZAXD
The Phoenix Police Department is investigating after an officer was caught on cell phone video sweeping a man's leg after handcuffing him, while another officer pointed a gun at a pregnant mother and her two daughters. https://t.co/Xpq1pIloNcpic.twitter.com/1NWOULXdFW
The encounter was filmed by numerous shoppers. They were shocked to hear cops deliberately threaten death on a woman and her children.
Ames said the video begins about 10 minutes after the law stopped them.
The couple said it all stemmed from an anonymous call to the law that their toddler stole a doll from a Family Dollar store----something the family says was an accident.
Ames said that they were dropping off their daughter at the babysitter's apartment when the unknown cop stopped them. Ames claimed the officers didn't use his lights or sirens. The daughters were 4 and 1 years old.
"Next thing you know, a police officer .... comes up, open the door, banging on the window wiht a gun, saying he's gonna shoot us in the face, telling us to get out the car," said Ames in a presser.
One cop identified as Meyers was on camera saying "You're going to get fucking shot!" The notice of claim says the officer basically saying "I'm going to put a cap in your ass!"
The cop then goes to the back side driver's door. He couldn't open it because it was malfunctioning and then he bangs on the window and threatens Harper who says she was pregnant.
The moment the cop slams Dravon Ames to the cruiser and forcing him to spread.
The second officer comes up and then threatens Ames. He then slams Ames on the pavement. As he got back up, the cop then told him to spread his legs and continuously yelled at him.
This has gotten the attention of the Arizona Bureau of Investigation and possibly the U.S. Justice Department. Given that the law won't release their names out of fear for their safety, they are immediately placed in the freezer pending an investigation into whether justifiable force was necessary.
The couple have filed a civil rights lawsuit against the police department and it's also coincidence that some of the Phoenix Metro Police officers are under review for termination. Some of them were accused of sharing racist bullshit on social media.
Insults towards Muslims, immigrants, Black people, Barack Obama, LGBTQ and pro-Trump memes were caught on some of these dirty cops pages.
We are under fire. We are under attack. Black women are being treated like this is infuriating. We need to change the norm. Get this straight, I won't shed a tear or send thoughts and prayers to those killed by gun violence.
We need police reform.
We need gun control.
We need a president and Congress that changes the status quo. Seriously, we need it.
A Black U.S. Service Agent sues two U.S. Park Police Officers who detained illegally.
BAD COPS WILL GET GOOD COPS KILLED.
Even people of color in law enforcement are being targeted.
U.S. Secret Service Officer Nathaniel Hicks was stopped on duty in July 2015 by the U.S. Park Service Police. Hicks, who is Black, filed a lawsuit claiming he was unlawfully detained by the two white officers.
His lawsuit says it appears the officers singled him out because of his race.
U.S. District Judge Paul Grimm, a Barack Obama appointed judge ruled on Monday that a jury can decide whether Gerald Ferreyra and Brian Phillips violated Hicks' constitutional right to be free from an unreasonable seizure.
Hicks said he did nothing wrong when he was approached by the two U.S. Park Police officers in July 2015. He told the officers that he was a Secret Service agent and he was waiting to accompany a cabinet secretary's motorcade.
"I said, 'Whoa, whoa!' I'm a Secret Service special agent," Hicks said in the lawsuit.
The U.S. Park Police supervisor told Hicks that he was free to go between 40 and 60 minutes after Ferreyra first detained him.
Trump trips to his private residences cost the U.S. Secret Service millions.
Ferreyra pointed his firearm at Hicks.
Hicks claimed that Ferreyra and Phillips both yelled at him, talked to him in a degrading manner, and wouldn't let him leave even after he showed his Secret Service credentials.
He was assigned as an agent to protect then-Homeland Secretary Jeh Johnson.
Hicks is a 20-year veteran of the U.S. Secret Service.
The judge ruled the defendant may be held liable for the second stop, as well. Hicks' suit seeks an unspecified compensatory and punitive damages.
Even if you're an African American member of law enforcement, you're just treated like a criminal. Black law enforcement officers know that the "blue wall of silence" is "no snitching."
They can't all be shucking and jiving like David Clarke.
You may remember David Clarke, Jr., the bombastic former sheriff of Milwaukee County, Wisconsin.
He was hoping to get a job with Donald J. Trump as the Homeland Security chief. Alas, he's too tainted by Russian influence to get that job. Now he's no longer a fixture on Fox News and he's been fired by BlazeTV. He at least still trolls on the internet as some kind of "rock star".
A lousy coonservative who couldn't butter them biscuits.
White House top brass are really concerned with the wife of Trump critic George Conway.
Former pollster turned White House Adviser Kellyanne Conway is under fire. Federal officials had enough of her utter stupidity. They warned her many times to stop. She ignored them and now she's at verge of being fired out the cannon.
A federal agency is recommending that the White House removes her from federal service. She said that she's violated the Hatch Act on numerous occasions.
The U.S. Office of Special Counsel said that Conway continuously "disparages Democratic candidates while speaking in her official capacity during television interviews and on social media."
Special counsel Henry Kerner wrote in a letter to Donald J. Trump on Thursday that his office's investigative report found that Conway was a "repeat offender" of the Hatch Act.
Trump and Kellyanne Conway.
"Ms. Conway's violations, if left unpunished, would send a message to all federal employees that they need not abide by the Hatch Act's restrictions. Her actions thus erode the principal foundation of our democratic system -- the rule of law. If Ms. Conway were any federal employee, her multiple violations of the law would almost certainly result in her removal from her federal position. Never has the U.S. Office of Special Counsel had to issue mulitple reports to [Donald J. Trump] concerning Hatch Act violations by the same individual."
Trump so far shrugged the notion and has so far supported Conway.
White House officials aren't above the law. It seems like it's not just Conway. But also social media director Dan Scavino and former U.N. ambassador Nikki Haley, Melania Trump's spokeswoman Stephanie Grisham and at least another half dozen Trump White House staffers who committed violations under the Hatch Act.
Conway is truly a moron at heart. She's a failed comedian who became a political huckster.
She supported Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) during his ill-fated presidential run. She was applaud by Trump at first. But when Trump got rid of convicted felon Paul Manafort, he hired her as his campaign manager and former Breitbart chief Steve Bannon (an avowed white extremist) chief strategist.
Congratulations to head coach Nick Nurse, Kawhi Leonard, Danny Green, Fred VanVleet and Siakam Pascal. This is the first NBA Championship in the team's franchise history.
The 2019 NBA Championship goes to T-DOT.
The Toronto Raptors in NBA franchise history becomes the champions.
They defeated the Golden State Warriors in Game 6 in an epic shootout. The loss of Kevin Durant and Klay Thompson hurt the Warriors. They were hoping for a third consecutive title.
The Raptors will be honored in Toronto. They will meet Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and some might meet Donald J. Trump.
The biggest superfan of the Raptors is rapper Drake. He made an appearance at Scotiabank Arena's Jurassic Park.
The Raptors were hoping to take it to Game 7. They wanted to win in Canada. It's all good though....they managed to beat a team that is was heavily favored to win.
The Toronto Raptors are now a force to be reckoned with.
The dumbest White House press secretary Sarah Sanders is out.
Uh, okay!
The most dumbest White House Press Secretary in modern history is exiting at the end of the month.
Sarah Huckabee Sanders is exiting the White House after two years. Donald J. Trump fires her out the cannon. What she's telling the junk food media, she's looking forward to be with family.
Trump called her "extraordinary" and a "wonderful" White House Press Secretary.
After 3 1/2 years, our wonderful Sarah Huckabee Sanders will be leaving the White House at the end of the month and going home to the Great State of Arkansas....
....She is a very special person with extraordinary talents, who has done an incredible job! I hope she decides to run for Governor of Arkansas - she would be fantastic. Sarah, thank you for a job well done!
He even suggested that she should follow her father's footsteps and run for governor of Arkansas.
Her father is that bonehead Mike Huckabee.
Sanders often clashed with the junk food media and rarely held daily briefings. She came off as the most inept of press secretaries.
She praised Trump in her closing statements and also shared her thoughts about working for this old dickhead.
I am blessed and forever grateful to @realDonaldTrump for the opportunity to serve and proud of everything he’s accomplished. I love the President and my job. The most important job I’ll ever have is being a mom to my kids and it’s time for us to go home. Thank you Mr. President! https://t.co/wHNnq06AMg
Trump appeared with Sanders and reality television/celebrity agitator Kim Kardashian West in the celebration of her departure.
On her political future, Sanders declined to answer questions about whether she's had conversations about a potential campaign.
All hands on deck.
Sanders was on the 2016 Trump campaign’s communications team. She was a deputy press secretary when Trump took office before she succeeded Sean Spicer as press secretary in July 2017.
The press secretary faced criticism for giving answers from the White House podium that were misleading or contradicted what the president’s public comments. In one notable episode, she claimed after former FBI Director James Comey's firing that "countless" agents within the bureau had lost confidence in him. Special counsel Robert Mueller's report on his Russia investigation released in May contradicted her characterization.
Sanders told reporters Thursday that she didn't regret not holding more press briefings.
She will not be missed among Washington, DC reporters.
This year, the press secretary largely disappeared from the job's traditional role as the public face of the administration. She last held a press briefing on March 11, 94 days ago.
Sanders' departure continues a tumultuous run for a White House communications shop that has a difficult task in controlling the message of a freewheeling president. The White House currently has no communications director. Five people have held the job in the roughly 2½ years of Trump’s presidency — most recently former Fox News executive Bill Shine.
Trump would gladly use foreign influence to win an election.
In an interview with George Stephanopoulos, Donald J. Trump, America's oldest and most dumbest leader of the free world, the imbecile said he wouldn't mind if foreign influence meddled in the 2020 election if it helped him win reelection.
ABC News had access to the imbecile. Stephanopoulos questioned the possibility of foreign governments such as Russia and China putting a thumb on the scale for a candidate.
Trump basically dismissed the notion and said that he welcomed the information.
EXCLUSIVE: Pres. Trump tells @GStephanopoulos he wouldn't necessarily alert the FBI if approached by foreign figures with information on his 2020 opponent: "It’s not an interference. They have information. I think I’d take it." https://t.co/yWRxMOaFqWpic.twitter.com/qwLw53s5yc
Trump presented a hypothetical situation in which “somebody comes up and says, ‘Hey, I have information on your opponent.’ Do you call the FBI?” The president went on to say, “I don’t think in my whole life I’ve ever called the FBI” and, “Give me a break. Life doesn’t work that way.”
When Stephanopoulos challenged Trump, saying that the FBI director believes a person presented with potentially stolen information should call the agency, the president responded, “The FBI director is wrong.”
This is what Trump said. The far-white can't save him. They'll just use the old Hillary Clinton excuse
In a clip circulated on Twitter, Stephanopoulos pushed back on Trump’s insistence to take the information over calling federal authorities, but Trump held firm, saying a person could “do both.”
“There’s nothing wrong with listening,” Trump said in a video from inside the Oval Office.
When Stephanopoulos suggested a transaction of that kind could constitute election interference, the president disagreed.
“It’s not interference. They have information. I think I’d take it. If I thought there was something wrong, I’d go maybe to the FBI,” Trump said.
Do you think its right for President Donald Trump to take foreign information about an opponent? (Expect trolls to pick the dumbest answer)
Trump defended his remarks in a two-part tweet Thursday morning. “I meet and talk to ‘foreign governments’ every day,” Trump said, noting that he had spoken to numerous world leaders during his recent trip to Europe — including “the Prince of Whales.” Trump fixed the spelling of the tweet a few minutes later.
....call the FBI about these calls and meetings? How ridiculous! I would never be trusted again. With that being said, my full answer is rarely played by the Fake News Media. They purposely leave out the part that matters.
The taped comments come on the same day Donald Trump Jr., testified before the Senate Intelligence Committee in a closed door hearing. Members were expected to grill him on his meeting with a Russian lawyer linked to the Kremlin at Trump Tower in Manhattan on June 2016. That lawyer claimed to have damaging information about Hillary Clinton, the then-presumptive Democratic presidential nominee.
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.
A 10-year old American boy was detained by Utah police at gunpoint.
Salt Lake City boy was approached by the law at gunpoint. The cops mistaken a 10-year old boy as a grown ass man. The boy has special needs and his adoptive mother is angry. She wants the Woods Cross Police to do an investigation into the actions of its officers.
DJ Hrubes was playing outside his grandmother's yard when a Woods Cross Police officer pulled a gun on him. His mother Jerri claimed at a news conference that her son was playing in the lawn of his grandmother when this cop told him to put his hands in the air and he told DJ to get on the ground.
DJ, is a Black boy who has mild autism wasn't even aware of what cops were doing at the time.
Jerri said that she raced outside her mother's house and screamed at the officer.
"What are you doing? This is a 10-year old child!"
The cop ignored her concerns and decided to get into his vehicle and left. He would later return to apologize.
The Woods Cross Police immediately went into damage control blaming the situation on an active situation where they had bad knowledge. They claimed that the 10-year old boy matched the description of two armed suspects.
The spokesman for the agency, Lt. Adam Osoro said that the officer pulled out his gun after the child ran to the side of the house. After getting closer, the officer realized he got the wrong individual and left.
Osoro said the cop acted "appropriately."
Jerri Hrubes and DJ were clearly upset over encounter.
The incident happened when police were called to a disturbance of a reckless driver possibly shooting a firearm at other cars. Officers located the vehicle and initiated a high speed chase and the two individuals would exit the vehicle and flee.
One of the suspect was caught.
Jerri Hrubes said that the officers came back the next day to apologize and DJ did give them a hug.
However, she wants the cops to do a review on the actions. She doesn't want the cop fired but she does want accountability. She is considering legal actions in the matter.
"As a white mother to a black son, I don't feel safe in West Bountiful anymore," Hrubes said. "That changed after yesterday. I do not feel that he is safe. He has not left my sight. It just doens't feel like it used to."
She later added, "I support all police officers. I see good in them. But, I do not supporting putting a child of 10 years old at gunpoint with no explanation.... Does he look like he's 30? Does he look like he's 18, no?
