Anti-masker murders police officer who was escorting him away from basketball game

 
By Travis Gettys
Published March 01, 2021

A police officer was shot and killed in New Orleans during a dispute over mask requirements at a high school basketball game.

Police said 35-year-old John Shallerhorn tried to enter George Washington Carver High School's gymnasium Friday about 6:15 p.m. for a playoff game against Warren Easton High when he was stopped by an employee who was checking temperatures and enforcing a mask mandate, reported NOLA.com.

Shallerhorn fought with the school employee before Martinus Mitchum, a Tulane University police officer and 2nd City Court deputy constable who was working for the school as a security guard, tried to break up the altercation.

And why again are bullets not taxed at $5,000 per bullet, this is just plain outright ****ed up.............. 

To the family of the officer, this is just beyond sad............. 


Raw story is utter bullshit to begin with... but this takes the cake.

The guy who shot the cop had just robbed someone at gun point....

So I am pretty sure it wasn't really about the mask.
and the shooter



 Rawstory Leaves that picture out of their story...

down plays the armed robbery...


No one on DU mentions the demographics of the shooter...


But they sure do jump in to ban guns and paint him as soon sort of conservative anti-mask type.

1. This junk has to stop. According to the article, the shooter had robbed a man before the shooting.

"Before the shooting, Shallerhorn also robbed a medallion chain at gunpoint from a 39-year-old man sitting in a parked car."

We need to outlaw public toting, and put up metal detectors, etc., everywhere possible.


The Hack89 Prog points out the robbery (and inherently the flaws with so many of the DUmmie proposals:

55. If he is not scared of committing an armed robbery

what law do you think would deter him from carrying a gun in public?

62. Hack, stopping the proliferation of gunz will minimize this. I know you need a bunch of gunz to

find enjoyment in life, but there is a better way.

Every decade gunners delay meaningful gun laws with their whining, puts another 100 million on the streets. And I blame gunners for that.

10. That mask meant that much to him?

Does he think everyone will laugh at him for wearing one? Does it crush his manhood to that degree? Will it render him impotent?

It's just a mask!

64. He **also** committed armed robbery.


The headline conveniently ignores that.


I wonder if any DUmmie will link to the news story that highlights the robbery and has a picture of the shooter....

I somehow doubt it.

Well it appears that one DUpipo posted the twitter story and link with the suspects photo..

I predict that someone asks why they posted that photo and then thread dies.

Bullshit. Criminals and Democrats don't obey laws.

There have been laws that worked to reduce gun crime, but bleeding heart liberals called them racist.

Project Exile was a success, but black criminals were being locked up in federal prisons.

When they talk gun restrictions they forget 2 things. Criminal thugs won’t care. Most of their proposals talk about increasing the cost to own. I can afford it, why don’t they like poor people?

I'm going to go out on a limb here and suggest that your typical armed robber has traditionally been pro-mask - no pandemic necessary.

Our SRO (school resource officer) shares various police reports and Be On The Lookout For with us, and has humorously pointed out a couple of armed robbery suspects who aren't taking advantage of the mask requirements in the stores they are robbing on camera.

Well, I suppose if they were smart, they would have day jobs.
