Unreal. On the news they showed flags at half mass. If it was for him, then I just know that this country really needs to burn.

After everything I read today on what was said at the funeral and what was said before the funeral, I wish I had taken the job overseas.

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.

Drug dealers that resist arrest and are justifiable killed by law enforcement are not "martyrs."

Where did you get that Criminal History?

Well, he was a good kid, he didn't deserve this, etc...
Basically ignored his criminal history and the fact that he may have resisted arrest prior to being shot. Same old really as in all BLM events, the history of those deceased is irrelevant to what happened to them.

Yes, people always sell CDs in the hood at 2:00 am. That's definitely the product he was selling. There was no way he was selling something else.
He was also selling CDs on April 5th of this year when he was arrested for having marijuana and ecstasy on his person and in the vicinity of the CDs

Martyr a person who is killed because of their religious or other beliefs.
What was "his religion or other beliefs"? Crime? He may be a victim. He may be a symbol. He may be useful to the cause.He may be a convenient fit for an existing Narrative. He may be a cautionary tale. But he's not a martyr.

He's not a martyr. I think he's a statistic.

No. He's a worthless POS career criminal that may very well have killed those 2 cops if he'd had the chance. But he's dead now so he's no longer a threat to the innocent people of BR.
ETA: You should strongly consider deleting those friends from Facebook. They are idiots.
