Racial Double Standard

San Francisco, California - San Francisco security guard will not be charged in fatal shooting of suspected Walgreens shoplifter.

The security guard who shot and killed a suspected shoplifter at a Walgreens in downtown San Francisco will not face criminal charges, the district attorney’s office announced, saying the shooter acted in self-defense.

The district attorney’s office under Brooke Jenkins released surveillance video and a written report Monday regarding Michael Anthony’s fatal shooting of Banko Brown on April 27.

According to the report, the guard said Brown had repeatedly threatened to stab him prior to the shooting. Police did not find a knife in Brown’s possession, the report states, but prosecutors still determined his fear was reasonable.

“Given the totality of the circumstances, including the threat that Anthony believed, and could reasonably believe, the evidence shows that Brown’s shooting was not a criminal act because Anthony acted in lawful self-defense,” the report states. “Thus, Anthony is not criminally liable for the death of Brown.

If this security guard was white, the DA would have charged him the next day and the media would have vilified him. It’s so blatant and obvious. Whites need to prepare for a time when we actually may be hunted down like animals by these BIPOC’s.
