It's back!
Camping While Black:
"On May 26, Jessica and Franklin Richardson decided to take their dog to Starkville, Mississippi’s Oktibbeha County Lake to enjoy the long Memorial Day weekend and have a picnic.
But what was supposed to be a relaxing day quickly turned ugly when a white campground manager approached the young black couple while holding a gun and told them they were trespassing on private property and needed to leave immediately.
The incident was captured in a now-viral video recorded by Jessica Richardson and posted to Facebook on Sunday afternoon. In the video, the campground manager, an unnamed older white woman, can be seen holding a gun at her side as she tells the couple that they need to have a reservation to use the land near the lake."

And here is where this already bizarre case takes an even more bizarre turn. Someone called the police and said that there is a man with a gun that he won’t relinquish but conveniently forgot to mention that the man with the gun is a uniformed deputy sheriff!Larry David was once being heckled, long before any success. Heckler says "I'm taking my dog over to fuck your mother, weekly." Larry responds "I hate to tell you this, but your dog isn't liking it."Comment

More proof some people see black before they see anything else, including blue. Thank goodness that didn't escalate as is so often the case. You pull a gun on an armed officer, most times, someone ends up dead.Originally posted by Teenwolf View PostComment

Defense tried to use the Castle Doctrine because she thought she was in her own apartment and the jury rejected it.
Good to hear that Dallas won't be burning today and good for the family of Jean to get some closure here, although it is never enough.Comment

Perhaps it didn't have anything to do with that at all. And, it likely didn't have anything to do with him being black and testifying in a trial against a cop.Originally posted by DMT View Post
Brown was also scheduled to testify in another murder trial where he was shot and another man was killed. I'm not sure why that nugget wasn't included in the original article.
From the linked article:
Almost a year before he testified at Guyger's trial, Brown was wounded in a shooting at a Dallas strip club that left another man dead, police said.
Brown believed he was the target in that November 23 shooting and felt there were "still people out there who wanted to do him harm," said attorney S. Lee Merritt, who represents Brown's family.Comment

Once upon a Time in DFW...……..
Same ol story.
Another White cop killing a Black citizen who was doing nothing but existing in their own residence.
If I whisper my wicked marching orders into the ether with no regard to where or how they may bear fruit, I am blameless should a broken spirit carry those orders out upon the innocent, for it was not my hand that took the action merely my lips which let slip their darkest wish. ~Daniel Devereaux 2011
