Donte Shannon, 26, died Wednesday
RACINE, Wis. —
About 100 people marched to the Racine Police Department and City Hall
on Friday, two days after a fatal police shooting. Donte Shannon, 26,
was shot to death near 14th Street and Park Avenue after police said he
ran from a traffic stop, then pointed a handgun at officers.
The march began with a prayer by Donte Shannon's aunt.
"God that you would bring justice, Lord God. There's no need for
people to be slaughtered like animals, God," Norma Johnson said as she
addressed the marchers.
The group marched to the Racine Police Department, which under state law has handed the investigation of the shooting over to the Wisconsin Department of Justice.
"We want some understanding," said Donte Shannon's father, Nakia Shannon. "We want justice served this time, because we are knowing that people here in Wisconsin do not get it and we want it."
Police in an unmarked car pulled Donte Shannon over Wednesday because police said his vehicle didn't have a front plate. Police said Donte Shannon ran, and after a brief chase, they said he pointed a gun at them, and they shot him.
Donte Shannon's father said doctors told him his son was shot six times.
"My son was only 120 pounds, 5-feet-4 inches, and they shot him six times. It don't take six bullets to stop no 120-pound young man. Regardless, if he ran or whatever, it's not necessary," he said.
The march moved to City Hall where the crowd wanted to talk to Mayor Cory Mason but was told he was in Madison for the day, and they dispersed after about 30 minutes.
Donte Shannon has three felony drug possession convictions, and has been convicted four times for resisting or obstructing an officer. His father pointed out Wednesday that his son didn't have any history of violent crime.
Racine police said the unmarked squad car didn't have a dashboard camera, unlike the marked squad cars. Racine police officers aren't equipped with body cameras.
The Racine police chief and mayor will meet with the Department of Justice on Monday in Madison to discuss the shooting. A news conference is planned afterward.

Yesterday, the Journal Times was reporting 250 people marching on City Hall. Today they are saying 200. And this, from WISN Channel 12, says 100. Tomorrow, it will be down to 50.
Where is any video evidence/proof?
Pics of the crowd?
Pics of the sit in at Racine City Hall?
How convenient that Racine Mayor Cory Mason slipped out the back window and was unavailable!
OK - the video shows 50 - 100.
Shit - Pulled over by the Man for not having a FRONT PLATE! WTF?????
Hell yeah - that's hassling!
Here in TN I don't have a front plate because it's NOT a Fascist Police State - they save $$$ and only issue ONE plate - for the rear!
So I be driving every day illegal in WI!
FUK DA POLICE - and their Politician Overlords who use them as Revenue Officers for the State!

Turn off your TV and end the Programming!

LOL! - so No Tangible Evidence - AGAIN!
Just the Cops words against a dumb worthless Nigger - and that is what the paper claims - cuz he was using NON-PRESCRIPTION Drugs - and didn't want to be hassled by Cops for what amounts to nothing but acting as a Revenue Officer to enrich Mayor Cory Mason and his wife, Rebecca, by entangling them in some BULLSHIT minor "ORDINANCE VIOLATION"
Driving while Black without a Front License Plate -
Wake the fuck up ORBS!

Racine's Niggers got a valid complaint!
DRUGS aren't the Problem -
They are the SYMPTOM of the Problem.
Your Masters - Cory and Rebecca Mason are the Problem.
The NIGGERS are right.
Get off your high Horse and HATE.
Take a trip to your drugdealer.
Seems to me that the Chinese Government might have a legitimate complaint against the US Government for invading some space without proper authority and ID - so should China Nuke the USA?
Beijing Outraged As US Warship Sails Within 12 Miles Of Contested Island
The new year is barely three weeks old and already the US Navy’s “freedom of navigation” operations are eliciting furious threats of retaliation from the Chinese military.
Since President Donald Trump took office one year ago, the Navy and Air Force have increasingly sought to test the Chinese military response in the Pacific by sailing or flying within a certain perimeter - usually 12 miles - of one of China’s disputed territorial holdings in the South China Sea, according to RT.
In the latest clash, the USS Hopper missile destroyer sailed within 12 nautical miles of Huangyan Dao, a tiny island claimed by China, on Jan. 17.

Racine Police Department outraged as a Nigger drives without a front plate.
What's the difference?
China can actually shoot back (with Nukes) and has credible deterrence.
Dumb Niggers in Racine at best only got a small caliber pistol and are fair game.
Consider the following:
Should it be any Surprise – that the Mayor demands that his Police act as Revenue Officers and are required to generate $2M+ in “activity” by hassling, harassing, intimidating, inspecting any and all activity which is subject to micro-managing by unaccountable Bureaucrats in offices of Profit and Trust? The costs may be monetized – but the costs in human terms is staggering!
So – the Probable cause for initiating a traffic stop and accusing a person of being a criminal wasn’t displaying a front license plate. While former Mayor John Dickert claimed to have fired an Embezzler employed by City of Racine – but that person was never identified, and the City was not only sued, but agreed to pay John Dickert’s legal expenses of over $100,000?!
Would you like to be painted Black?
