Is Alton Sterling really a martyr?

I had a few Facebook friends go to Alton Sterling's funeral today and each of them posted that he was a martyr. I've heard of other people referring to him as a martyr as well. How exactly is he a martyr? I'm just curious if anyone on the OT can explain.

He's not a martyr. a victim maybe, but not a martyr. It's stupid people using words they for which they don't know the meaning.

By definition no. He didn't die for his beliefs.

Martyr? Seriously? He was an armed criminal resisting arrest and not for the 1st time. This is a farce!

Good to know.
Now I know to ignore everything you post.

I don't think your facebook friends know what a martyr is.
Posted on 7/15/16 at 6:52 pm to trom83
Because he can no longer molest children?
Posted on 7/15/16 at 6:54 pm to trom83
If he's considered a modern day martyr, society is more screwed up than I thought.
Posted on 7/15/16 at 6:55 pm to trom83
Not a martyr worth celebrating
Posted on 7/15/16 at 6:59 pm to trom83
No. He's a offender, a lifetime one at that.

Your friends are shitty.

He's is not a martyr, he's a convicted felon who illegally had a gun, couldn't follow orders and put his destiny into the hands of the police, and therefore he lost control of the situation. If he was anything, he was a teacher, he taught all of us that even though you may be right, you comply and live to fight another day. I'm in no way saying he was right.
