🤔🙄
@Oh No cuz da BIG GUY in da Whitehouse even tho hes not in charge dats whys nuttin bees done are u really that stupid? yea
@gary jameson like when Trump was President and he installed Barr so he could get away with the Russian investigation? He didn’t have Barr to protect him against all these pending criminal investigations in several States anymore.
@Shaunamarie Russia Russia lol ahhhh ur so cute biden china Hillary Russia swallow n spy kamala all pos
@gary jameson “Person, woman, man, camera, TV,”
@Shaunamarie bro
A bad day is getting MURDERED!!!
this is what happens when you have the fox guarding the hen house. Every fox will get a hen.
She is correct, The killer is not the victim.
Nobody said he was!
@Tommy Thompson Watch a video that shows the police chief who spoke to the press about it… you’ll understand.
@Kate D
Didn’t hear “victim” in regard to the murderer.
Got a timestamp?
@Joshua d’Estoville Yeah no kidding he did not use THE WORD victim, he knows how fired that would have gotten him. He doesn’t need to use the word though with the way he was buttering up the sympathy for the ”he had a really bad day guys!” guy terrorist. Trying to evoke sympathy for the murderer is actually ALL he did…
Fat
This is the problem in America no one believes Asians have been in the United States for centuries, not just the last few years
I’m thankful you don’t speak for me.
Wtf? That makes no sense. And that’s not the problem. If anything your length of stay in America is why most people don’t even think of you when discussing minorities. You are basically white to most people.
Asians and Africans have been here before Europeans arrived.
Asian live in america before white come in.
The police officer, should be moved to a desk job, or removed from his job. How can he say with his voice oozing with sympathy that a man who murdered 8 women had a “Bad Day”, Is he then saying that the deceased women had a “Good Day”.
desk job??? try NO job!!! ever!
The captain and the murderer may have matching tattoos.
@wade stanton He did more to stop him than any of you guys criticising him.
@James Spittle no he was only running his racist mouth like you he did nothing to stop or arrest him btw is that your name ” spit” ??? seems appropriate u just another paid troll get a job
If that murdering lunatic just “had a bad day,” then so did John Wilkes Booth!
Filed an official complaint against Capt. Baker, Director of Communications for the Cherokee Sheriff’s Office due to his obvious racism and inability to name it a hate crime (minimally against women) against Asian Americans.
@Oh No a man was also shot by the shooter but you won’t hear about that on liberal propaganda outlets that call themselves “news”.
@Granite Rock ty. I certainly will!
Unless of course, “I’m having a bad day!”
Now everytime I hear someone say that I’ll be reminded of that POS! Ugh!
@ST7A Bad Karma they released his name tonight!!!
Ever hear of having to notify next of kin?
Btw, the gentleman was of latino decent. I guess next you’ll be saying he was here illegally, huh?
@Joan Bowden sorry nice try. Who said anything about names? Way to deflect from the facts and ignore how the press isn’t really mentioning the 3 non Asians that were shot because it doesn’t fit their narrative. Even the head of the FBI has now come out and CLEARLY stated that this is NOT racially motivated. Disingenuously putting words in my mouth won’t change the facts. But you already knew that. That’s why you deflect. You can’t deny the facts I pointed out so instead you just go right to personal attacks and deflecting from my points.
at the very least the police should have completed an investigations before they made these statements defending the killer solely on his words…are killer’s words usually that credible to most police officers?
Yes, not a bad day….
it’s a massacre…
Cop proving he is tone deaf to non white murders
You’re a racist, but don’t let that distract from the fact that Geico can save you 15% or more off car insurance
Thank you Sen. Duckworth.❤️
The cop saying the perp was “having a bad day” is another proven rascist who should be removed from his job.
You’re a racist, but don’t let that distract from the fact that Geico can save you 15% or more off car insurance
🚫 Many Massage parlors just a front for prostitution and perversion. Sad 😞 that people were shot by a mentally ill young man addicted to pornography; pray for the families.
@David R. Stone being mentally ill doesn’t excuse him. I have mental issues that have me barely able to keep from jumping off of the nearest tall object and I’d rather do that than take a life
proven? please expand scoty
@gary jameson It seems it was found that he has shared content like a shirt saying Covid was a Chinese import… anyone who knows history should know very well that you can’t just do that crap because, well for one look what happened to japanese people during and after ww2
The sheriff spokesman was off the wall. Wonder about his background.
He sold China Flu Tshirts on his FB.
Twitter has exposed him as a MAGAt..
Cops gave him the Burger King treatment
That cop is having more than a bad day now. Good.
He needs to lose his job!!
I’ve got two half Black and two Asian grandchildren mixed with my native American heritage. Lord please protect them from the hate.
Don’t believe the lies. Your grandkids will be fine.
@mr love biggest LIE in America you mean. All the hate is focused on straight white folks. Fact.
We have to get out from amongst our oppressors and stick together as a whole with our own people. People don’t want to tell the truth because of WS let’s call it what it is. This has been going on since bible days and we’ve been brainwashed by our oppressors. It doesn’t take a science degrees to figure it out. the Lord is revealing everything but we are in fear if the truth. I believe in the Almighty God. He’s not only warned us he’s now showing us the truth. Scriptures says in the last days what’s going on. 2 Timothy 3:1 I’ll be praying for you and ur family.
It’s their own fault….stop blaming!
@mr love F….you, cuz!
The police force again have proven themselves useless.
brilliantly said, ty both! we should all be horrified by it, and by racism every time it rears its ugly head!
This is definately domestic terrorism. Thank you trump for teaching hate and making it “ok” in the minds of sick and ignorant peoplr.
What makes them any different from most of the users in this comment-section?
This officer is an absolute disgrace and needs to be fired. This was a horrific crime and the officer’s bad day statement was totally inappropriate and unacceptable, we have to hold law enforcement to a higher standard. Sincere condolences for the victims and their families.
This Patriot of an officer is obviously wanting to be president. He thinks he is sucking the big orange turd base like other Republican heroes. He will have to nudge out Ted, Josh, Tom, Linda(sey) and the giant gas bag himself if he runs again. This is some sickness . I guess this is where we all say ” Thoughts and Prayers” and go burn a church or school for the soul of “Murika”! A bad day? Been too many of those in the last 5 years. And before,,,,,
What % of law enforcement is right there with this public servant? More than the average citizen can believe, and by now we can believe a bunch of BS.
The officer didnt rush to judgement and sticks to facts. You? You’re a person that should never be put on a jury.
My bad day usually ends with a long hot shower and a small glass of wine 🍷. Not a killing spree. My heart goes out to the victims and their families 💔
Sometimes 2 or 3 glasses of wine and sleep.
This Police officer should be fired.
