In yet another case in a rising trend of African-Americans losing their lives over nothing, a man in Las Vegas has been fatally shot. Mohammed Robinson, 31-year-old father of two, got into an altercation with a woman at a McDonalds for apparently failing to hear her request to hold the door open for her.

The woman then complained to her male companion, who promptly drew his weapon and shot Robinson dead.

He leaves behind a girlfriend and his fourteen-year-old daughter, who cannot comprehend why her father has been suddenly taken from her. “My dad would open the door and hold it for the lady but he probably didn’t hear her. I love him. I wish he was still here” mourned Miniya Sampson.

Robinson’s youngest daughter is just three months old and is suffering from a blood sepsis infection.

It was posted earlier today under General News and it got plenty of reaction here on the forum:

4. Yeah about

Door holding etiquette!

That woman and her friend are pieces of shit and both will get away with their behavior that lead to this man losing his life.

These punks always get away with it.

9. That kind of response is exactly the reason why I've stayed away ...

And I'm sorry I stopped by today. Talk about insensitive! They're not missing the point -- they simply don't care. It's easy to joke about the loss of a life when, in one's opinion, the life has no value.

My heart breaks for his family, especially his children.

2. too busy being outraged over a football player not standing for the anthem

to give a shit about this.

but closer to the truth is the shooter in the OP is just the type that would be outraged over the football player.

6. You tell no lies

BTW - the ball player? What has he said that is any different than anything Trump has said? There's one difference though . . .

3. Second story about public execution of

African Americans over nothing. I hope the judge and jury, minimally, lock them up forever. Maybe put the death penalty on the table.

And did he have a permit to carry? Is this why he wanted to carry?

5. Is that why he has a permit to carry?

By the time the case gets done it will be the man who was shot who had the gun and killed himself.

7. "losing their lives over nothing" Not for nothing. Because he was black, and thus seen as worth

less, so much so that normal human behavior which prevents one from murdering your neighbor failed.

It was something. It was being black in a States United under Racism.

8. I've been reading these stories

car accident where the white guy that caused the accident gets out of his car with his assault rifle and shoots the black female driver of the car he hit and kills her while she is standing with her hands raised in the air.

black man going into or coming out of a McDonald's doesn't hear or didn't otherwise deal with a request from a white woman to hold the door open for her... she complains to her boyfriend and he pulls a gun and shoots the black man.

I think these incidents are all created by the current "simmering race war" attitude created by the GOP nomination of Donald Trump. The sheer number of unarmed black men and women being killed by police and not facing any criminal charges and usually not even a loss of job is a symptom. The dismissive attitude or even pro police attitude from many white people over the protests by BLM and black athletes and entertainers is also a symptom.

The election of Barack Obama shattered the thin veil of silent white privilege some 8 years ago... and the resulting reaction has been ugly. They have mainstreamed their racism. Trump is the result. I firmly believe that these people feel empowered to just pull a weapon out and shoot black people because of the candidacy of Donald J. Trump.

I don't know where this ends... but it's not good.
