Pretty intelligent looking fellow right there. He looks the least bit worried about attempted murder charges

Well, after reading that, I'll just take a knee from now on, and blame racism and the police.

I bet he was at the VFW SHOOTING at post 10159 ?

So 5 people shot in this altercation and 2 more elsewhere?
7 shootings in the 'Bury in 2 days?
What crime?

This article doesn't make sense because it says Holmes is in custody and they are looking for the person of interest in the picture yet the picture shows Holmes' name.

It's white people's fault. All the oppression blacks have undergone causes them to shoot eachother, for some reason.

What an upstanding pillar of our community! If Obama had a son, he would look just like Troy Holmes.

Where are all the so called black leaders in this community?? Instead of blaming everyone else for your problems except that the black community and families are failing these kids and do something about it instead of this social media grandstanding and blaming Trump for everything. Look I'm a 55y/o white male and if Donald trump can walk around with whatever that is on his head and think he looks good we All know how f'd up he must be

Mary Ashanti....oh Mary Ashanti....where are you? Calling Mary Ashanti. *crickets*. Typical “minority leader”. Never says a word when black folks shoot up the community and other black folks but is the first one giving out quotes and face time on the news of a white person “oppresses” black culture. Mary is a fraud. If you want to clean up the community and stop the violence, you can’t cherry pick events. Step your stupid azz up and come out strong against these hoodlums in our community. OWN your race and the associated problems caused by them. Quit being a victim when it’s convenient.
