Long story short: A suspected WS male named Ethan Liming and his friends had "toy" guns (which were actually discovered to be pellet / splatter guns) and they decided to ambush, harass and shoot at Black youth minding their business and playing a game of basketball.
Nobody knew what was going on and with Payton Gendron (anti-Black racist Buffalo, NY terrorist shooter) and several other anti-Black racists and WS terrorists running amok, many suspected that Ethan and his friends were literally trying to ambush and murder some Black people who were easy targets.
So the young Black boys, Tyler Stafford, Donovan Jones, Deshawn Stafford Jr. (2 brothers and 1 cousin, who are The Akron Three) who are ages 21 and under, had their fight and flight responses triggered and set on overload. Many ran from danger while these 3 young men heroically tried to stop the shooter Ethan from shooting and also tried to neutralize the threat before they and others got hurt or killed. Not long after, Liming passed away from his injuries generated by the self-defense. The whites and the locals seethed, became outraged and demanded for these 3 young men to be found and arrested for murder and other charges.
The whites and as well as the white media and news sites are painting Ethan Liming out to be a completely helpless, innocent victim and claiming that "he was just being a teenager and didn't do nothing" and that "it was just a toy gun and a prank, not cool man, he was only 17" while painting the 3 young Black men who defended themselves and their community to be "vicious evil thugs and savage criminals."
This is not right at all. These young Black men did not know that they were being so-called "pranked" (shooting at people with guns is not a prank btw, especially during these times). It's safe to say that Ethan Liming's intentions were clearly not as good and as innocent as his family, the police, and whites and making it out to be. Many whites are often insensitive and find sick pleasure in targeting us as well as our suffering as evidenced by the non-Blacks that were caught laughing at the Buffalo shooting. But to them, this is their own "Tamir Rice" situation even though you can't even compare this situation to 12-year-old Tamir Rice, who these very same racist whites wrongfully attacked and heartlessly blamed for causing his very own death. They never even found the alleged toy gun Tamir Rice had and he was still murdered by cops over a freaking rumor by a white male Karen that called 911 on him because Tamir's presence of Blackness and alone was seen as a threat.
I mean seriously, what are people supposed to do to defend themselves and others when you have cowardly cops in Uvalde allowing for kids to be ruthlessly killed? When you have WS anti-Black racists terrorizing and murdering Black people in cold blood inside churches, supermarkets, stores, public places, etc? And when the Supreme Court ruled in 2005 that the police are not actually obligated to risk putting their lives on the line to protect you or the public?
