    Meh, you seem to be working hard to be geese about this for no reason.Which is going to be the bigger distraction? 'OMFG, somebody just dropped a big chunk of change! Who could it be!' *internet detectives try and busily internet detective* Or 'named celeb makes big donation.' Maybe I just have the wrong newsfeeds, but I haven't heard him making any statements about it.

    I think it's probably more that he has a reputation for making things about himself and has long since burned up all of his benefit of the doubt cards.

    If he does his publicity stunt bullshit with this security guard I'm going to go from disliking him to actively hating him.

    Kanye also failed to fund his mother’s Chicago-based charity while building a new big house with his wifey. They had to take her name, his mother’s name, off the organization because he kept pulling shut. Don’t put your faith in Kanye.

    I’m very sorry to say that there has been another incident very similar to the one in the OP.

    In this case, Emantic Fitzgerald Bradford Jr was shot dead by police as they responded to the shooting of an 18 year old and a 12 year old in a shopping mall in Alabama. He was initially named as the main suspect in the case, as seen here from a local ABC affiliate.


    The police are now saying that Bradford, an active duty service member who was on leave for Thanksgiving and the son of a police officer, does not appear to have been the shooter, as the same ABC station are now reporting.


    And yes, this is what Bradford looked like, from digital magazine The Root.



    The actual shooter remains at large.

    And continuing. General police shootings continue with a 14-year-old boy holding a toy gun. The boy had burglared a car, taken the toy gun from it and ran from the police. Apparently that's enough for you to get shot by the police if you're hispanic. Oh. And the cops initially claimed that they had shot an adult man and that no children were involved. I can tell the difference between a 14-year-old and an adult, why can't the arizona police?

    As for Jemel Roberson. The police are still stalling. Despite every cop wearing bodycameras, even after three months there has been nothing.

    I don't know what the toy gun looked like, but all the police knew was there was a criminal and then they saw a gun. Not sure how this plays into the security guard shooting either.
