Did any of you boys see the latest insult to Erik's memory by a jerk so-called reporter by the name Mike Blasky?
"Erik Scott, 38, was killed July 10, 2010, after brandishing a pistol in front of the Summerlin Costco on a busy Saturday afternoon.
Scott, a successful medical device salesman and graduate of the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, brought controversy to the suburbs.
“There’s no part of the community that’s immune from this type of situation,” said Cal Potter, an attorney who frequently sues police.
Scott’s father led an aggressive campaign against the department, paying for billboards, holding vigils and generally casting doubt at the officers who shot his son.
It helped that Scott was white and his family was wealthy; Cole was poor and black.
As details about Scott’s shooting slowly filtered out, the public discovered that he had been heavily intoxicated on prescription drugs, armed with two handguns, and hostile to Costco security officers before police were called. After he refused police commands and reached for his holster, three officers shot him seven times."
LIES AND IRRESPONSIBLE REPORTING ABOUT ERIK and you gun-totin' Constitutionalists should be pissed.
I'll be covering this article on my radio show tomorrow, June 21.
It seems the only way to get "justice" is to be killed if you're Black and unarmed. If you're White and/or armed, you're ******. Where was the NRA on this? How utterly disgusting.
