Sunday: “Yesterday [Price] noticed a man assaulting a woman and he intervened. When police arrived, I’m told, he raised his hands and attempted to explain what was going on. Police fired tasers at him and when his body convulsed from the electrical current, they ‘perceived a threat’ and shot him to death.” On Monday, he appeared near the site of the shooting with Price’s family, and

Jonathan Price exemplified a life and worldview shaped by a most disgraceful and shameful ethos. Devoid of a sense of humanity and accountability for the very oppressed group of people whom he originated from. If anything, his case serves as an example of sheer disgrace and irony
Thank you Rangers
Why would a baseball team be involved in law enforcement?
ClimateAxnNow Defund the Police fire the Nationalists it's not hard to find who they are creeps are everywhere
Oh god, not again. Another good black man gunned down by a white policeman. Jonathan Price was protecting a woman from abuse? And was killed for that?
He resisted arrest.... end of discussion. Cop was justified. stopresistingarrest
Still not enough, why are the police so poorly trained?
🤦🏿♂️ If we have the mans face, name and picture , do we really need to say 'A black man' Media and their trigger words.
The world could use a little good news right now
You know where this goes. Not guilty or light sentence but keep all his benefits.
all bad apples

Charging him quickly so we forget about Jonathan won’t work but ok. We know how this will end.
I'm so done with the police
This seems real.
That cop needs to face first degree murder charges now!
Is there a video?
His poor mother, so sad. “Nope, not this time. ‘He resisted arrest, just comply with the cops’.. Nope that one doesn’t work this time either. This was purely an act of racism. Period. So, for all of you that think this is all bullshit, you need to check yourselves.”
Whats crazier is he was blue lives matter and if you do nothing wrong youll be ok person
It just gets worse and worse.
