    “Breonna Taylor Was Asleep.” Yes, she was asleep the night/morning of the shooting. No, she was not asleep when she was shot.

    She was gravely wronged, and what happened is entirely inexcusable. However, statements that confuse people on the facts of the situation do not help the cause.

    Edit: It seems my memory was faulty, per Walker’s statement, they were watching a movie in bed when police came to the door.

      like he said:

      getting your door kicked in by a gang of cops about to shoot you to death tends to wake a person up

          Simple. It’s some of the worst behavior on reddit, on a garbage sub full of garbage people.

          Basically someone who loves it when cops murder black people for them is like “It’s totally an awful thing that this happened, but” and then launch into a defense of whatever racist piece of shit is the topic of discussion.

          Too bad that shit can’t stay on reddit where shit belongs.
