Nobody just gets shot for nothing.....

Weird, if Black Lives Matter so much, why are they killing each other. This is the cultural enrichment from the multicultural society. Guns, knives, violence, drug dealing. Sound like any other countries in the world where they originally came from no matter what generation!

Another shooting in the constituancy of DawnButlerBrent. But she's more worried about BAME persons being stopped

And sky are happy to give maximum time to a lady who was stopped as a passenger in london i really do hate the way sky news reports

A tragedy, this is why London needs stop & search. We must support & show respect to the police officers working these streets. DawnButlerBrent will be hard pushed to blame stop & search on racism as white british only make up 17% of the community.

Can’t they build a wall around the lawless hell hole that was once known as London

BLM want to defund police. remember one of their core beliefs!! Stop and search is a must to try and stem the senseless violence. But Sky and Labour mps like Dawn Butler are happy to criticise and undermine the police at every opportunity making their job is almost impossible.

This needs to stop...to many precious lives gone...💔

Ah... We the homosapiens..Where is the brain with the neocortex that makes us reason our acts? He had a life before him, a family to smile with, friends to chat with..Speechless, I ponder, did we even deserve to be homosapiens?

London has become the absolute pit of this country. May he RIP.

Far too many guns floating around in this country, if we remember, Cameron was supposed to be using more police intel and beefed up border checks - but was it 2 or 3 weeks later he cut both security services, police and border patrol budgets.This one lies directly at Tory hq

Hey News_Snuggsy Great picture used here to make the victim seem like the perpetrator The comments section below will be full of heartlessness towards him now You like all your colleagues who report in this way will get your day of judgement......

Do BlackLivesMatterUK in this case or this just another...

Always senseless until the true story comes out. I bet this is another Trident crime
