Just because u have a concealed carry permit does not mean u get to pull your pistol out and run thru the mall trying to find the bad guys. That’s a police matter. Doing so will very likely end like this ....tragically

Maybe everyone should read the AG’s report with all of the pictures before commenting.

Anyone with any common sense wouldn’t run towards the police waving a gun just after a shooting. Would you do that?

They killed the good guy with a gun. Then defend it.

Are there no black 'good guys with a gun'? This is a travesty.

This is why kaepernick took a knee.. It's not that hard to grasp...

Go figure.

Let's wait for the bodycam before jumping into conclusions

So another cop gets off scott free, after killing an innocent man?!!! Thugs with guns & a badge. :(

Welcome to Murica

All is Fine and Cool Except for the dead man and his family. Alabama Police Department is Liable.

WTAF? Oh wait the victim is black and it’s Alabama? Never mind

shocker

The 21-year old victim was carrying a gun, and that's why the policeman thought he was the prime suspect of the shooting. I guess it kinda brings down in flame the whole 'only good guys with a gun can stop bads guys with a gun' theory, no ?

*Saves tweet for when the next set of pigs get ambushed and yt ppl crying in street

Of course not.

Misidentified starting to look like its a racially tinged occurrence

Using a weapon as a civilian always has the risk of scaring the police.

The Alabama officer who shot and killed a man fleeing a mall shooting won't be chargedA police officer who killed a bystander fleeing a shooting at the Riverchase Galleria mall near Birmingham in November 'did not commit a crime... and thus will not be criminally charged for his actions,' Alabama's attorney general announced Tuesday. Interesting 🤔 And of course FakeNewsCNN lied about this typical democratic racist! What if a bystander saw an undercover cop running with a gun in the same situation and shot the cop. Would they get the same consideration? doubt it.

Police officer justified in fatal mall shooting of black man: Alabama AGAlabama police officer was justified in killing a legally-armed African-American man while responding to a shooting allegedly committed by someone else at a mall on Thanksgiving night, state attorney general rules. RepMaxineWaters when we get back in office I need you to investigate the Russian money going into the police department starting with the NRA Oh, where is the NRA ? How come they are not looking out for this gun owner? Owning and bearing arms for colonial era white men was about providing a militia for slave owners to guard against slave uprisings as it was about guarding against native Americans on the frontier. But when black people want to own guns? They’re seen as a threat.

Alabama Police Officer Will Not Be Charged In Fatal Shooting Of Mistaken GunmanThe attorney general says the officer was justified because the man was running toward the victim with a firearm. A lawyer for the dead man's family says the police 'feared a black man with a gun.' That’s a f—-ing crime!! Yeah I need to read the report in this case... Something doesn't sit right. Another reason why all LEO should be trained with community policing and de-escalation. While it is terrible he died, he did run towards the shooting while holding a gun. There definitely are cases of an officer's racism ending in a wrongful death, but this was a mistake made in the heat of the moment
