As a fellow veteran, I am deeply saddened and troubled to hear about the senseless killing of Senior Airman Roger Fortson by police in Florida. Airman Fortson bravely served our country, only to lose his life needlessly to police violence here at home. It fills me with grief to see yet another Black servicemember, who dedicated his life to our nation, die in this way.
Incidents like this are a sobering reminder that even those who wear the uniform are not immune to the systemic racism and injustice that continues to plague policing in America. It shows how far we still have to go to root out bias and brutality in law enforcement, and to ensure that every person, regardless of the color of their skin, can expect fair treatment and due process.
My heart goes out to Airman Fortson's family, friends and fellow Airmen as they cope with this devastating loss. I stand with them in mourning and in the continued call for meaningful reform, increased accountability, and justice. Senior Airman Fortson's service and sacrifice will not be forgotten. We must honor his memory by working to build a society where tragedies like this no longer occur, and where every person's life, dignity and humanity is equally valued and protected.
I saw most the body cam. 1. He was under the influence of alcohol. 2. He held a Glock in his right hand as he stood behind apt. #4001, Listening as the Deputy banging repeatedly, he WAS YELLING “Police, Open Your Door! OPEN THE DOOR! (The apt manager called the police because neighbors were reporting that he was having an argument with someone and this had been going on for a long time. Someone went over to his apartment. I’m not sure if it was a person selling something, but when he opened the door, he threatened them it all on the body camera, so when that person went down to the office, he notified the manager that something was wrong with that guy. Therefore the manager called the sheriffs department to go up and do a welfare check and make sure that the young man and his woman friend were OK. The part where the shooting happened was deleted so the investigators from different jurisdictions would have a fresh opinion, because they would be the only ones to see the actual shooting and watch CAUSED the deputy to feel like he was about to be shot by this airman. I noticed the young man appeared to be concerned and Disoriented. Of COURSE HERE COMES THE RACE BATING LAWYERS…… GOING TO spin another false narrative and try for that “Ghetto Lotto” jackpot. Especially that slow talking “Kingfish” Amos and Andy lawyer Big Ben Clunk! “Lawd how’ Mercy Baby! What you gonna get ? what you gonna get? Hold out ya’ hand because you ain’t gettin chit!
@@daveshondel5108 You racist fart! You are part of the problem of this country!! RACISM is so deeply grained within you that by the end of your comment, you could no longer hold it in! You had to close out with your RACIST RANT! Be careful....what your heart is merciless towards one person, very well may be the fate that lies up the road for you or your loved ones.
@@daveshondel5108The CoLoNiZeR fAuX narrative that you spew
That's a lie the officer was at the wrong apartment that's #1 The officer then knocked at his door and then hid so he couldn't see him in plain view in the peep hole #3 he had the right to bear arms legally and the gun was pointed down not at the officer.. So your loud and wrong kids@daveshondel5108
@@daveshondel5108 don’t know what body cam your sour cream munching behind saw but the officer was wrong and at the wrong house.
I am very grateful for the body camera because for far too long we have heard,
“We we’re just doing our job” but Thank God for the Body Cam Evidence. As a Mother/ Military Mother, I know that God will give you strength to get through. You raised an Amazing son and I thank you again. You are in Great hands with Pastor and New Birth Church, God is Able to carry you through! Trust Jesus!
Rev. Dr. Jamal Bryant crossed over as the Voice of Black America today! I am blessed to be his contemporary cohort, comrade in his prophetic voice, speaking Truth to Power!
It’s been a long while since I step into a church or listened to a pastor. Today!!!! Pastor spoke to my soul and he has gained my attention
I agree. He left no crumbs! I'm so THANKFUL for this fearless son of the most high!
I agree! Praise the Lord.
God is standing by his side and your side momma
My good God!!!! Pastor Jamal Bryant was the voice for the Black American people in this moment!! He spoke so eloquently. Thank you, Pastor, Dr. Jamal Bryant for those much-needed words. 🙏🏾 My utmost and sincerest condolences to this family. May the Lord God bless justice to be served unto the family of Senior Airman Roger Fortson.
We Salute You Airman Roger Forston🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 May You Rest in Peace🕊🕊🕊
Thank you Roger for your dedication to your country. This should have never happened to you young man. You were willing to give your life for your country if need be, but your own country via police officers, took your life away due to a senseless, idiotic, and lack of training that should have never come to the point of murder. You did not die in vain, your country stands behind you and your family, and the majority of US citizens stand behind you and will demand JUSTICE. God bless you, God bless your family including your Military family, and may God grant you permission to enter his Kingdom. We mourn yet celebrate your young life. God's Speed Brother... God's Speed.😢
My deepest condolences to the family and colleagues of Senior Airman Roger Forston. May you Sleep In Peace with your Lord and Savior 🙏🏾❤️🕊️🕊️🕊️ Precious Lord comfort his family. ❤
I salute you Senior Airman Roger Fortson🧎🏿♀️Rest In Peace🙏🏿
I am so Godly proud of Dr. Jamal Bryant's sermon. This is one of the best and successful, great provoking sermons ever spoken at a funeral
🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
I said the exact same thing... He preached.
The eulogy Pastor preached today, yes Lawd
On 5/19/24 Rep. Jasmine Crockett “Changed My Mind” … We will VOTE. Enough of these HATE CRIMES. Why do you think the Sherriff ask the person 3 times until she told him where the black man lived? We honor you for your service Roger Fortson…Thank You…God’s got it now.
Please remember one thing before you go to the election booth in November 2024...Vote "policy" over party...The Democratic Party and the Republican Party have both been very tepid when it comes real policing and criminal justice reform in this country...In fact...after nearly four years...the George Floyd Policing Reform Act is still languishing in committee and not one executive order has come from the White House to force change in this area...Support "individual" candidates who will be dedicated into putting in the necessary hard work to spark and enact critical and long needed change in this area regardless of political party affiliation...We need more new "grass-roots" candidates who are not corrupted by the same structural status-quo system in Washington DC...
RIP Roger ,you fought a good fight 😢
This one hit hard.My son and Roger played Baseball together at NcNair High School .My HEART go out to the family 😢❤❤
