No one watches the watchmen. And the watchmen do not watch for us.

Everyone knows the decision is wrong, that's why they started boarding the shit up 2 days ago.

They hiding from all the shitheads using these situations to steal things and fuck shit up. Just keep ignoring facts

Well this comment got some retarded replies

Her family got a $12 mill settlement, but that doesn't bring justice. And justice in this case should go straight to the top.
clutchthepearls
The walls in that apartment complex got justice, but not Breonna.
AnonymousBach
Rarely will there be a more just riot.
noctynight
Nothing? Really? Nothing at all? Fucking system is busted man.
Booyakahbooyakah619
Negligence is an insult to her life. I hope this is just the beginning.
Munchman347
Well, they did get reprimanded for shots that entered the White neighbor's apartment, but not the Black neighbor's...
TheLastBeerBender
Am I the only one who sees that a police officer returning fire will never be charged? He should've never been there.
SithElephant
If returning fire is a defence in criminal proceedings at the wrong adress, it should be an automatic acceptance of intent in civil damages.
SithElephant
The PD shouldn't get to argue justified shooting at the same time as wrong address. This should amplify damages as if it was intentional.
backrideup9
I'm confused. Did a sleeping woman unconsciously fire a weapon at the officers? Or did you run out of characters with that thought?
TheLastBeerBender
Boyfriend fired first period cops fired back, carelessly. he should be charged with what he's been charged with and fired like he has been.
macturlock
This this this this!!
bangbang909
I fixed a truck.Found out that i was given the wrong truck info.Still got payed.those leo's were doing what they were told and shit happend.
bangbang909
Are they really the ones to blame? Not the people who gave the bad info?
TheLastBeerBender
They're to blame. (Bad info guys) but the BIGs won't go to jail either. It's no-win for Brionna.
Thatsmykenku
Y’all got any more of them riots?
WitchDoctor666
The only felony charges are for bullets that DIDN'T enter an innocent person. Justice? Hardly. I'm mad AF.
raknor88
Yet, people will be shocked when protests break out over this ruling.

TKBold
Oh, but there were charges. Wanton Endangerment. The WINDOWS got more fucking justice than she did.
Flodos
Whelp. We tried protesting within the system, it officially did not work. Time for guillotines and pitchforks.
FlatPlutoSociety
Burning police stations in Minneapolis got shit done.
Abetterusernamethanyours
I'm Puerto Rican, so I'm partial to the black flag one they plopped in front of the governor's mansion. Star blade, stripe structure
EvilKrikkit
I'm angry. But not surprised.
preparationh67
I'm surprised they went out of their way specifically to charge him with shots that didn't kill her. I expected nothing and still let down.
andychristman2000
Things are going to going to get a lot worse
abacab87
I'm not surprised, because it was friendly fire. And it's a war zone out there, i live in it. i've had 5 dead within 500 feet of my house.
dontknowbuthello
But that’s not the way it should be ?
EvilKrikkit
But it's worse when cops do it. Period.
CityYeti
The police falsified information that was used to receive the warrant. The police said they worked with a postal inspector to find out if
CityYeti
suspicious packages were being sent to her address. It turns out they never worked with any postal inspector, and didn't have the evidence
CityYeti
they claimed they had

starfound
Where did this come from? I'm just curious.
rockyoulikeaHURR
Read the whole thing. It’s all hearsay, but if true I think Kenneth Walker acted reasonably because the police didn’t identify themselves.
pacufish
Definitely, I don't know who wouldn't think their house was being invaded. No matter what, the police needed to be more aware
pacufish
of where they were shooting. It could have just as easily been a child they shot
whitebbwolf
so the investigation showed the cops DID announce themselves & that made it all legal. No matter that the base for that warrant was shite
SithElephant
You may have missed that the charges for shooting into other apartments against the officer were only for the white neighbours apt.
SithElephant
The rounds into the black neighbours attracted no sanction.
hotdudecurator
God damnit. I'm so fucking naive. I honestly thought they would get charged after the outcry. WHAT. THE. FUCK. IS. WRONG. WITH. OUR. COUNTRY
SaintCody
It's because what they did was WRONG, but not ILLEGAL. not at the time it happened.
VresiBerba
Don't shoot at police. Problem solved.
starfound
Sleep shooting I guess. What the fuck is wrong with you?
VresiBerba
Walker opened fire at the police. Nothing is wrong with me, just not being a trigger happy American relying on castle doctrine to save me.
starfound
And the person who didn't died. You don't see an issue there?
VresiBerba
And the person who didn't died? Uh... what? What does that even mean?
ambiencenever
In plainclothes. Unannounced. In their apt. At night.
VresiBerba
Don't shoot at police. Problem solved!
ambiencenever
Whoosh! The point zipped by ya. They didnt know they were police. Or...you're a bot with generated responses.
VresiBerba
I don't give a shit if they knew or not. And speaking of whooshing, the point is; don't fucking shoot AT ALL! But you Americans know ->
hotdudecurator
I'm going to assume you're joking and not a fucking moron
VresiBerba
Joking? No, I'm dead serious; DON'T SHOOT AT POLICE! Seriously, just don't.
hotdudecurator
Fucking moron it is! HE. DIDN'T. KNOW. THEY. WERE. POLICE. WHILE. BREAKING. INTO. HIS. HOUSE. BECAUSE. THEY. DIDN'T. ANNOUNCE. THEMSELVES.
VresiBerba
I DON'T FUCKING CARE! HE FIRED AT POLICE AND THEY FIRED BACK!
shapememory
No-knock warrants should be illegal.
VresiBerba
As should castle doctrine, which is what caused Walker to open fire knowing he's immune no matter who was on the other side of the door.
shapememory
But why? Isn’t it unfair to expect someone to do nothing when their home is invaded? Breonna’s boyfriend was totally justified imho
VresiBerba
Who said anything about doing nothing? There's a hell of a difference from doing nothing to using lethal force. He shot blind, through ->
VresiBerba
-> a door, ffs. If I did that where I live, I would go to prison for the rest of my life, but then again I don't even have a fucking gun.

More than sending someone to jail I wish they would acknowledge that the police actions caused an innocent death.

The boyfriend was a licensed gun owner, someone the NRA usually throws on a pedestal when they protect their homes. In this case: crickets
MoreAshyThanLarry
That gun didn't protect him, it cost him his life.
MaxCliff
I was thinking the exact same thing
SaintCody
Well you're just not seeing it here because gun ownership is generally frowned upon on Imgur. But i will be one. He was in the right.
stanndingtall
I own guns. I'm not a frothing NRA freak, but own them because I know there are bad people in this world and cops aren't on scene in seconds
stanndingtall
But someone busts down my door unannounced they will be met with gunfire.
HypnoJack
NRA stays quiet when cops are involved. Like with Ryan Whitaker.
theairingofgrievances
She was involved in selling drugs from a trap house. She was on the warrant. Look up her calls from her ex from jail. She talks about trap.
Rips4w
And?
LrrrRulerOfThePlanetOmicronPerseiEight
No drugs were found. Which part of that was a death sentence?
LrrrRulerOfThePlanetOmicronPerseiEight
Muting when you can't answer the question. Good form.
SexyKangaroo
So you think she deserved to be killed because of phone calls with her ex? Do potential suspects gets automatically executed now? Dumbass
muckamuckamuck
She dated a bad dude but moved on. I can't believe people think that justifies a homicide
SpammersAreScum
False. She had no record of drug offenses. Her name and address were on the warrant because they expected to find their actual target there.
kirchd
Except they didn’t break the law. They had a legal warrant. She was not in bed but next to him as he shot at cops who DID announce. So....
SpammersAreScum
There's some disagreement as to whether they announced. Neighbors say they didn't.
Rips4w
Got a video? I mean, you obviously do. Just share it with the people youre attempting to persuade.
kirchd
This video society is truly idiotic. If it’s not on video it didn’t happen. Obviously, forensics doesn’t exist.
Rips4w
It's called tangible and damning evidence that cant be falsified. So, what damning forensics are you presenting that proves all you said -
Rips4w
- and isn't provided by the PD trying to save its own ass?
kirchd
I haven’t read the warrant nor seen the forensics report. That being said what do you have besides conjecture to prove otherwise.
LrrrRulerOfThePlanetOmicronPerseiEight
??? Killing people isn't breaking the law???
kirchd
No. When it’s justified
LrrrRulerOfThePlanetOmicronPerseiEight
Enlighten me.
kirchd
I could kill you if you had a knife to my wife. (Justified). I could not kill you if you were eating the last ice cream the store had.
LrrrRulerOfThePlanetOmicronPerseiEight
Good thing that's not what happened then isn't it
ThisAnalrapistneedsANuStart
Murdering people is illegal, but as it stands, if you have a warrant and get shot at, you can return fire with lethal force.
LrrrRulerOfThePlanetOmicronPerseiEight
How many times did she fire?
ThisAnalrapistneedsANuStart
(1) She was near someone who did fire. She wasn’t targeted. Her BF isn’t in the wrong if he didn’t think they were police...
ThisAnalrapistneedsANuStart
(2) and the police aren’t wrong for firing after being shot
LrrrRulerOfThePlanetOmicronPerseiEight
That's called manslaughter.
