I'm white, and all through my childhood I was told: if you ever carry a gun you are more likely to be shot than thanked after at any incident. No one stops to ask which armed person is a good guy. Anyone with a gun and no uniform = bad guy. The guy should have put his gun away the second saw police. Clearly he was not hiding, and was BRANDISHING a gun,,
Run them all over! Hey get out da way! get out da way!
Stop Black Violence !!! Stop Black Racism !!!
I wanna how all these motherfuckers have time to protest…don't they have fucken jobs or are they getting paid by George soros
he was probably just trying to help or protect himself
whats up with this shoot first ask question later mentality
Not angry at the shooter that is responsible for all this but at the police. Great logic. He had a gun at the scene of a shooting. It was a reasonable mistake. Wait until they find the shooter and be angry at him.
Gun Control is a joke…
They need to protect themselves from people that get paid to protect them
This is what passing gear is handy for.
For the people who are saying he had a gun out. Whats the point of owning a gun if you cannot protect yourself with it?
They need to hurry up and release the footage so people stop the "he was trying to help" narrative.
Dear protesters, i appreciate y’all but if I’m ever on the highway and y’all come to shut it down I’m running y’all over.
Okay….does anyone still think, WE don't need Jesus? Friends, please change for the better now…God didn’t let the rebel ANGELS off the hook, but jailed them in hell till Judgment Day. Neither did he let the ancient ungodly world off. He wiped it out with a flood, rescuing only eight people—Noah, the sole voice of righteousness, was one of them. 6-8 God decreed destruction for the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah. A mound of ashes was all that was left—grim warning to anyone bent on an ungodly life. But that good man Lot, driven nearly out of his mind by the sexual filth and perversity, was rescued. Surrounded by moral rot day after day after day, that righteous man was in constant torment. 9 So God knows how to rescue the godly from evil trials. And he knows how to hold the feet of the wicked to the fire until Judgment Day. Don’t put GOD off any longer, it is not worth going to hell, talk to him today! This is just a warning so that you have time to change. Love ya.
To those of you who say that he shouldn't have had his gun out, let me say this to you. Alabama is an open carry state. Multiple people were reported having their guns drawn during the shooting, including EBJ, yet he was the only one shot by police. The police could have assumed multiple shooters, but the fact remains that the officer chose to shoot one black guy with his gun drawn versus the several white guys with their guns drawn (without apprehending the real shooter). EBJ wasn't shot just because he had a gun, but because he was black and he had a gun. I do commend the Hoover Police Department for stepping up and taking some accountability for this wrong, as most police departments try to shamefully dehumanize the victim(s) of a police shooting. While I wouldn't condone a highway blocking protest for other issues, I can't blame them for doing this. Lawmakers and law enforcement avoid holding police officers accountable for shootings because of re-election politics and racial bias. It's sad that people have to resort to such drastic measures in order to make some change in their communities and hold those accountable.
So, let’s have teachers protect our kids with guns at schools. Oh wait, what a chit idea.
that shooting was no accident
I would have loved to be on that highway driving a Big Truck
That’s why I rather protect myself
Don’t shut down the damn highway
The police force in the USA in the last 10 years have murdered more innocent people than from 1975 to 2007. 867 murders by police in 2018 this year so far, it's insane.
maybe they should get out of the fucking road it doesn't do anything productive
Oh well . One less to break into my house or steal my car. Good riddance
Let's stop killings by making thousands of people lose pay and waste gas
Lol
America has no place for heros, though feel very sorry for this good soldier trying to do a good deed, though this situation got misunderstood by the officer due to discrimination.
It sounds like a accident I will wait for more details before I judge to harshly because something is missing here in the details.
Government subsidies to private businesses… Venezuela Venezuela Venezuela corporate welfare!! Venezuela, Cuba right Trump supporters? 😂😂😂😂
Fuck them all
Why so many dislikes?
Police officers need to be help accountable when shit like this happens, do they not?
It’s like people don’t like commander fox who killed Fives
Was Jesus a racist? Your new Jesus is!! Please stop worshipping the man in the oval!!
Out with the good guy with a gun theory
Changing the world one pissed off late motorist at a time.
So outraged they will go shut down a road to outage someone else.. glad to see that’s what they are teaching snow flakes these days

AMERIKKKA IS A SHITHOLE COUNTRY TOO!!🇺🇸😈😈🆗✌😎
I am a Trump supporter and I think that this is a unjustified shooting.Another example of the attitude that people are not allowed to defend themselves or others.That is why in this case I side with the protesters.Even though I don't agree with the tactic of blocking traffic.
Wait, he was a good gun with a gun
Looks like some people about to get run over. I would bump them and then drive off. Blocking highways is illegal.
Demographics Matter
I guess if this is Justified then cop should just open fire on any car they pull over that has an NRA sticker on it.
Have to see the body cam footage to tell if there were any signs of aggression on behalf of the man who was shot.
I think there is a little more to this story people
