Current Events > 21 y/o Black Soldier KILLED at an Alabama Mall was NOT THE SHOOTER!!

(+) Yeah! (+)

The 21 y/o Black Man killed at an Alabama Mall Shooting was NOT the gunman as the REAL SHOOTER is still on the LOOSE...and the officer that shot and killed him is now on LEAVE!!

Emantic Fitzgerald Bradford Jr, the son of a Birmingham cop as a member of the US Army and was shot dead by officers while they responding to reports of an active shooter at Riverchase Galleria mall on Thanksgiving Day

An 18 y/o boy was shot twice after getting into a fight with a gunman and a 12 y/o girl was also injured when struck by a bullet

On Friday evening, new evidence showed that Emantic may have been involved with the 18 y/o and at least one other individual but he did not fire the rounds that hit the victim

Investigators said that several epople were involved in the original fight that broke out at 930pm as it's unclear if he was trying to break up the altercation or if he was involved

Emantic was holding a gun when he was running from the scene and a uniformed officer shot and killed him where his body was found lying in a pool of blood from footage obtained.

Evidence suggests the real gunman is still at large as a weapon was later recovered at Santa's Village.

The video showed people frantically shouting for customers to leave as one person shouted "Everybody out!"

His devastated mother, Cynthia Kenniebrew Bradford hopes to clear her son's name writing "sick lies all around" and said "To lose a mom and dad was a terrible thang, but to lose an innocent child is beyond words. My heart is so heavy right now. RIP EJ"

Both victims that were shot were taken to hospital and is expected to sruvive. The mother of the 12 y/o said her daughter didn't realize she was in pain from her back until she started bleeding and said that her daughter is brave and positive who will recover.

The officer that killed EJ is put on administrative leave while an investigation is conducted.

It was unclear if it was a mass shooting considering black friday was the day after but it re-opened by 6am

Alabama is an open-carry state that allows residents to freely carry guns in public

Do you still support "open-carry guns" in Public?

EJ - Deceased

Of course.

And the NRA will say nothing.

How is the open carry law responsible for his death? If he had a gun and they didn't have open carry would he have been arrested instead? Funny how so many mass shooters kill a lot of people and even have a shoot out with police but end up being captured, but this suspect had to be shot. I wonder if there was a warning issued or if he just shot him?

Cops are so scared of black people, it's ridiculous.

That doesn't mean brandish it when there's cops around though.

...how does that in any way change how the cops are going to react when they approach a live fire situation? when they enter an area responding to an active shooter they're trained to shoot when they see someone with a gun.
---

You think they shot any of the other people that were likely open carrying? That's the point.
---

Open carry never made sense to me. I get it's easier to get your gun but wouldn't you want it hidden?

Well in an open carry state maybe they shouldn't be trained to shoot someone when they see a gun? Because that would cause lots of problems.

if we're making assumptions then mine is that i doubt others were dumb enough to play rambo instead of running the fuck away. its the sad fact that arming untrained civilians and expecting they're not going to make stupid decisions during life threatening situations is apparently a staunchly defended right in this country.

Where are you getting that he was playing Rambo? It's not an assumption that they didn't shoot anyone else. And by the way, he was running away from the scene. You gonna make up some more bullshit?

and if all cops were bulletproof and omnipotent i would agree with you.

pulling your gun during a shooting event like this is playing rambo. also

the cops just straight up murdered this dude. he was the son of a cop and a member of the military, basically the exact person you actually want carrying a gun in public and they shot him for no reason, just like they did to the security guard that prevented a mass shooting
---

monkmith posted...

Ah, so we're selectively interpreting what happened, much like how you neglected to read that he was running away from the shooting.

Look, if you want to spit on a corpse, I'll just stop being a party to that, but keep your vile attitude away from me.

Being military too is gonna start some shit. You know there are people sifting his background to look for any stain to justify the shooting

Proves even further that the "good guy with a gun" is a myth.

One things for sure tho: that family is gonna get one helluva settlement. Still not worth a human life, but maybe inspire these police to reexamine their training.

Right after the cop murdered the armed security who had subdued the suspect at a night club in Chicago. With bystanders screaming at the cop "he's the guard, he subdued him".

Systemic racism is a fucking problem and anyone who doesn't believe that is either deluding themselves or is intellectually dishonest.

That's what intellectually dishonest is. Racists are dishonest people as they have to hide their true nature in the shadows, lest people actually know how disgusting and vile they truly are.

They do get charged occasionally. You have to get a jury that will fucking convict them.

Except for all the times someone was stopped from carrying out a crime thanks to someone carrying.

But don't let that stop your shitposting.

a huge part of the problem is the prosecutors that occasionally charge these cops don't actually try and get them convicted. if they brought the same energy and effort into convicting these scumbags as they do for anything else we would see results.

in these obvious cases of murder/manslaughter the prosecutors need to charge these people and charge them with the appropriate crime while actually trying to secure a conviction

The guy was running around holding a gun during an active shooting. You can cry your little eyes out that the most likely consequence of doing that happened, but I don't waste tears over idiots.

you mean a trained professional was prepared to act in a way to try and save lives? he obviously wasnt an incompetent, cowardly buffoon like the human scum that murdered him

Open carry is the dumbest shit ever. It can freak people out to see a dude walking down the street with a rifle. Also, it's completely pointless. Singles you out like a wack a mole chump.

This post can't be serious.

That's sad.

Ok now I am certain any black good guy with a gun needs to wear something that identifies them to the police as this is now less then a month after a heroic security guard was also killed by what seems to be racist police.

The security guard even had others saying he is a guard, he subdued the bad guy yet a cop still killed him. Now we had a soldier, a USA soldier who was tryimg to stop a bad guy and he gets killed too ?! This guy was the son of a police officer, and a soldier, this is the guy you want in this situation fighting off a shooter which he seemed to have done and some racist cop still killed him.

Police need to serious learn target identification, like the scene in MIB 1 where J is the only intelligent person actually looking at the situation instead of just going guns blazing in the test scenario.

I want you to picture yourself as a witness to an active shooting. Cops haven't arrived yet, won't for several minutes. Guy with military experience tactically stops the shooter. In a state where open carry is legal.

Is he still an idiot?

the general idea is they shouldnt just open fire without cause. if they are too dumb to make that distinction they are too dumb to be a cop

According to him he should have just done nothing and never try to stop him. Open carry is still stupid, but that's completely irrelevant to this story.
