Police shot and killed a Black man in his front yard outside of his home
He tried to rob a bank with a gun. The story keeps changing. The gun keeps moving. The gun may not have even been real. The family knows the details. The police don't care.
The man was mentally ill. He did have a long criminal record of mostly petty crimes. But, he didn't kill anyone.
Edward Russell, Jr was tried, convicted, and executed outside of the court of law with no judges and no jury of his peers. It was all outside of his home on the front lawn by police. And after, by commentators on social media.
If it was their blood, I'm sure it'd be a different story. We never understand that pain until we go through it.
