Another white male gunned down in the prime of his life . When will being white and young stop being a crime

Dillon Taylor, 20 years old, was executed by the Salt Lake City Police around 7pm, Monday night for failing to comply with officers orders. The young man was reportedly wearing headphones and likely couldn’t hear the officers.

Taylor, his brother, and cousin were at 7-Eleven in South Salt Lake City when cops began searching the area for a suspect who was allegedly waving a gun in the general vicinity.

When the three young men exited the convenience store they were surrounded by officers and ordered to show their hands. Two of the men stopped and complied, Dillon Taylor, listening to music, seemingly did not hear the officers and kept walking until he was savagely gunned down by at least one officer.

Three officers are reportedly on paid vacations, but it is still unclear how many officers fired at Taylor or how many times he was shot before his death.

“They were obviously upset their friend had been shot and kept screaming for him to wake up, and he never did. He died in the parking lot, they were saying he did not have a gun, and they were very upset because of that.” a witness told KSL.

Jerrail Taylor (brother) and Adam Thayne were both taken into custody and questioned through out the night. Both young men maintain he was unarmed and simply went to pull up his pants when shots were fired. Both men were released and no arrests were made.

paid vacations. ffs.

That's one of the perks of being a murderer when you're a cop.

There needs to be a protest or something.

At the risk of vilifying the person in this case.. 20 years old, two felony convictions, and threatened to shoot a witness to one of his previous robberies... He wrote this on his facebook:

"I feel my time is coming soon, my nightmares are telling me. im gonna have warrants out for my arrest soon. ALL my family has turned and snitched on me. ill die before I go do a lot of time in a cell, I feel like god cant even save me on this one ... this time coming its me and the demons im fighting."

I'll wait before jumping to any conclusions on this one...

Exactly. Seems hating on cops is the cool thing to do on VJ.

But the Police State and all. That's NB's schtick here as of late. He's feverishly searching the internetz for anything that supports his police state paranoia. Can't you play along just a little? Coming in with friggin' facts and shite? He doesn't do facts. Why do you do this to him?
