Looks like that stereotype fits many cultures, hence your orange former leader Con Don with 34 Felonies and a proven liable S. Asslt case he lost by taking something from a woman.... of course🙄 just abusive and corrupt But As you said at this point some things aren't just stereotypes anymore😄
LoL not the member of the insurrectionist, mass shooter, colonizing and DOMESTIC terrorism culture pointing fingers😂😂😂 Privilege is a POWERFUL drug! So powerful it BLINDS😂🤦🏽♀️ #gofigure
What's crazy is that In his interview with the news earlier he said that if someone pulled a gun out on him he could take it from them and kill them from his jrotc training. I thought he was just talking 😮
Days later I’m finally actually listening to the news and realizing this guy being interviewed is not a witness, he is the suspect Every time I saw this story The volume was low so i didnt know the whole story… I just saw clips of the high speed bus chase
❤He was at Americasmart in building 3 when the shooting was going on at the Food Court across from building 1, two woman were shoot in the leg, both are fine. He then started talking like he witnessed the shooting, but he wasn’t even in the Food Court, after the interview is probably when he jumped on the bus. I have friends that work in all 3 buildings downtown Atlanta, who told me about him. 🙏🏾🥰🙏🏾
I'm almost certain he wasn't carrying a legal gun. Now if more people carried, maybe the threat could've been stopped. An armed society is a polite society.
He wasn't carrying a gun. Someone pulled a gun on him and he took it away, just like he said he would do in a hypothetical situation he mentioned in a news interview an hour prior his own incident. Just so happened, he got into an argument t on the bus..somebody pulled a gun and he overpowered him and took it🤷🏿♂️ might've had a case if he didn't in turn hijack the whole bus full of people🤦🏿♂️
Are you sure? What are the chances of him getting a lesser penalty base on health conditions. I think the law is setup against good citizens, very weird.
Sir you have a daughter, and I highly doubt you are making that much more than minimum wage driving a commuter bus. This situation was hardly worth dying over. As you see the gentleman that pulled the gun is the one that died and now his children are mourning him. All of this was senseless.
I don’t disagree with most of what you’re saying but I doubt he’s making minimum wage. I live in St. Louis, Missouri. Small city, lower wages, but also lower cost of living.The median income is $52,000-56,000 here. Our city bus drivers start around $50,000. I doubt St. Louis is over paying anyone. My sister just started driving the bus. That’s how I know.
In 1981, the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (OBRA) was approved by the National Congress and signed into law by President Reagan. It included provisions that repealed most of the MHSA (Mental Health Systems Act), discontinuing federal funding and the support for community mental health centers established under the MHSA. This caused thousands of mentally ill people to be let out on the streets and to this day mentally ill people make up the majority of the homeless population in America.
I just watched Speed a few weeks ago. It never gets old. Dennis Hopper was one of the greats! TMZ has already contacted Hawthorne James, the actor that played the bus driver in the movie.
Uh, so no one is going to ask WHY Ernest Byrd had a gun on a commuter bus? If he didn't have a gun he would still be alive today. He had his own weapon used against him. IF that was his own registered, permitted, licensed, open carry handgun. Idk Georgia laws on carrying a firearm, but I would be very interested in that part of the story.
Condolences and sympathy to Mr. Byrd’s family. I’m a Ride Gwinnett commuter also, though I ride another route. I was really shaken when I saw the news and realized it was a GC commuter bus that it happened on. I was talking to my bus driver about it this morning. He’s still driving, and I’m still riding, though.
We left Chicago when our youngest was 6 months oldold, who is my seven year old now. I can’t imagine the pain that that baby and his family are enduring.
Wow that's crazy it almost sounds like shooting that took place months ago on the NYC subway transit with person taking their own gun and shooting them with it smh
So the hijacker got into it with a bus passenger who pulled out a gun but the person who had the gun pulled on him took it away from him and shot him with his own gun,sounds like self defense....he might not had been charged if he hadn't hijacked the bus.
@@RurbanWalker but he's didn't pull a gun first nor did he have a gun,they said it was an argument, I'm not defending the hijacking and terrorizing the bus driver,other passengers and those motorists, I'm just saying what do you expect if someone pulls a gun on you, I know I'll fight for my life.
@@teresacollins9218 so do you really believe (19 aŕrests) Greer was minding his own business on the bus when this (now dead) passenger just randomly decided to pull a gun on him?
That comment "it's happening all over the world", is probably what triggered it: to go from one shooting to having a gun pulled on him, pushed him OTT.
So a man with no weapon shoots and kills a man with a weapon. Sounds like self defense to me. The kidnapping/hijacking was where he went wrong. Also the bus drivers daughter is delusional
The suspect says he suffers from Bipolar disorder but was cognizant enough to keep the gun on the bus driver and then pretend to be a passenger/victim when the police stopped the bus. Really??
The victim was killed by his own gun. NYC subway riders shot by his own gun. If No one has a gun legally or not in these two cases there will be no injuries or death. Guns are the problem not mental health issues. Legal firearms or not there will be always serious injuries or death.

we have regressed to lawlessness, but the law now favors criminalizing the people who are just trying to do the right thing.

I thought the gun belonged to the other passenger and he overtook him. Shot him with his own gun and held the people hostage.

You got killed with your own gun
Tells me he pulled out his weapon on the suspect & I think this is a strong case of self defense
Laid down his life.. for his fellow man
How was he even OUT with that many priors!?🤦🏽♀️
Could have been small things that got dropped down to misdemeanors in some cases. You know the media likes to inflate reality for their stories
So a man with no weapon shoots and kills a man with a weapon. Sounds like self defense to me. The kidnapping/hijacking was where he went wrong. Also the bus drivers daughter is delusional
Tell the Truth NBC, he was in a manic phase
How did the police stop the bus?
see THE GAUNTLET c1977
The suspect says he suffers from Bipolar disorder but was cognizant enough to keep the gun on the bus driver and then pretend to be a passenger/victim when the police stopped the bus. Really??
Just another reason to stay away from Atlanta. This place is filled with demons.

Sounds like self defense if the “victim” pulled out a gun over an alteration

He drew the gun as he was too close to the suspects or tried to do a quick draw and he lost.
Wasn't that the plot for the movie Speed, the bus is not allowed to slow down or stop?
He was at 2 shootings with no gun
Be ready to meet Jesus,
we don’t know when our time is but with the time we do have,
make sure we are standing with the right stance in Christ Jesus

So, the victim pulled a firearm, got his weapon taken then got shot? He could have possibly beat that case had he not panicked and hi-jacked the bus.
