It's always interesting going from thread to thread, seeing which articles get believed fully and which ones make people wait for more evidence.
The amount of assumptions made and outright belief in the written word of the first article is wild. Even more wild after video was posted and an eye witness spoke up on the mother's behalf.
The first article said the mother allegedly texted the son, signaling him. Somehow people in this thread have taken it to mean she texted him saying, "I'm getting attacked, get the strap and murder all involved, I'm your mother and you'll do what I say". When the reality is, it's not even known if she texted him. Not to mention how anyone outside of the mother and son would know that information unless they divulged it. Which if they did, nothing would be alleged.
If y'all are black men, with black mothers who weren't dogshyt, y'all need to do better when it comes to giving the benefit of the doubt. This thread is ugly yet not surprising.
