Vigilantism takes another life as a #Black kid’s shot & killed, again.
Fact: In #DC use of force for self defense’s only OK when person believes they’re in imminent danger of bodily harm but shooter left his home to confront the boy
Fact: Said use of force must be proportional to threat, but the boy was shot multiple times
Fact: #KaronBlake was 13 years old & the shooter should be arrested #BLM

CW: violence, injustice
"I didn't know you could just kill somebody over property damage. That's just crazy."
A man shot and killed 13-year-old Karon Blake in NE DC this past weekend while the kid was apparently breaking into some cars, and that man has not been charged with a crime. As Karon's grandfather said (the quote above), that's just crazy.

[Edited: Contee just said at a 6pm press conference the shooter is a Black man who is not a cop, I'm shook]
DC folks and comrades everywhere, a 13-year-old child was murdered this past Saturday by a w̶h̶i̶t̶e̶ vigilante who has not been brought into custody and is currently facing *zero charges*.
Please support #KaronBlake's mother's GoFundMe for her child's funeral costs, and as usual tell MPD to go fuck themselves and quit their fake piggy jobs whenever you get the chance
