New Report Continues to Obfuscate Killing of Duncan Lemp

And that same person will tell you to call a crackhead if you criticize police. But the advice of the gun forum dude is sound; get a gun, become an expert with it, and be your own cop. Anyone paying attention since at least the Parkland shooting knows they...
