I agree with this. It wasn't right. Why was Alton Sterling allowed to be free? This was a man with a lengthy criminal record. Take away the fact that he was selling illegal bootleg CDs and DVDs for a moment. He was a convicted sex offender and had a gun on his possession while resisting arrest.

Records show that Sterling was a registered sex offender with a lengthy criminal record that included convictions for weapons offenses, confrontations with police officers, property crimes, and domestic violence and other batteries.

Black people (especially these in power in Baton Rouge) want to demonize the police, white people, and thriving businesses all while asking for help to progress their cause? It's moronic. North Baton Rouge, and areas like Cortana used to be a thriving area, once the blacks moved in, business goes down, crime goes up, and smart people get the hell out. I'm so sick of hearing this bs. How bout stop killing each other? How bout stop having 7 children on welfare and buying the new Jordan's or iPhone that comes out. How bout just stop making your bad decisions my problem.

Trump's campaign hasn't published a social justice manifesto which they plan to use as a road map to get back at whitey. So, shitty comparison, bro.
