Us black people brought this on are self. We attack white ,asian each other all the time. We riot,loot,burn,harm and kill for free stuff in the name of the racist BLM. No wonder when a black person shows up to a white home. White people are scared. I'm scared when a black person shows up and I'm BLACK.
This hurts Me 🙆🏾♀️ 😣… My grandkids are Not Safe! Mass shooters, 👮🏻♂️ Gangs, white supremacist🤨, RASIST teachers 🧐..Thugs in our own community 😤… "WHO" Protects Black People in this Country!!!!!! I'm F'n SICK of this 💩!!!!!! WHEN WILL IT 🛑
"Vicarious Trauma" brought on by people nationalizing stories like this (through social media and mainstream media). This is a local news story. Why does the whole nation need to know about it? If the races were reversed or the shooter was also black, it wouldn't get this kind of attention. By focusing solely on incidents where the victim is black and the perp white, it creates the illusion that this is the only way it goes down. There's way more black folks being shot by other black folks as well as black folks killing white folks, but that's not newsworthy because it doesn't play into the racism narrative, and so people don't hear about it. In fact, race isn't even mentioned in other news stories unless the victim is black and the perp is white. The media (including this station) need to stop stoking racial divide.
The NRA and the gun culture crowd need to stop trying to scare everyone into believing that guns are the solution to all your problems (and a demonstration of your level of patriotism…)
don't be racist. it can have an effect on anybody if I'm approaching a house let's say that I'm a Bible salesman? and I get shot at LOL the other day a girl was picking up her sister and got shot at driving into the wrong driveway. the people doing the shooting are maga maniacs.

The people need to prepare for war, these charges must be dropped and this cockeyed DA needs to apologize to mr. Andrew LESTER !!!
White peoples need to protect mr. Andrew Lester’s house from these animals !!! An 85 year old man has a right to defend his house 🏡
Then don't be racist.
