"Fortson was on a video call with a friend, who described what she heard to his family's legal team...... the airman heard a knock on his apartment door and asked who was there, but received no response. He then heard a second, "very aggressive knock" but did not see anyone when he looked through the peephole.
at this point that Fortson is said to have grown concerned and retrieved his gun, which the lawyer said was legally owned.
As Fortson returned to his living room, the witness said police burst through the door, saw that the resident was armed and shot him six times.
"Roger Fortson was the best America had to offer. He was a patriot. He was a US airman, special ops. He was fighting for our way of life. He was fighting for everybody," .......... but he was black.
WHoops... wrong apartment.
When a nation is awash in guns as the US is, cops are justifiably scared to death of being mowed down in a hail of lead on a house call.
US Policy is such that these senseless murders will increase in direct proportion to the volume of firearms.
