This Sometime Poet

They took his licensed gun before shooting him over 11 times and then claimed he approached them brandishing his gun when video evidence shows he was only recording them when they approached him.

questions pretending to be signs fear, mislabeled “storm” courage, badly dressed there be time, unpacking
