Protesters demonstrated outside the home of Washington, D.C., Mayor
Muriel Bowser after an 18-year-old black man was shot and killed by
police.
Deon Kay was shot and killed by an officer
on Wednesday afternoon after he pulled out a gun while running from
officers, according to the police. Protesters gathered in the area
almost immediately after the shooting in Southeast D.C
.
Protests also took place overnight outside of the Seventh
District police station Wednesday and early Thursday morning until
demonstrators shifted to Bowser's home.
"If we don't get no justice, you don't get no sleep," the demonstrators chanted outside Bowser's home.
"I'm a black person living in this city. I'm tired of
seeing people like me get murdered. I'm tired of the mayor not being
accountable for it. I'm tired of, like, [police Chief] Peter Newsham and
his gang of killer cops that are terrorizing the city," one protester
said, according to a report from NBC 4.
Officers surrounded the Seventh District station and maintained a line to protect the building when the protesters gathered.
Many protesters demanded to see the body camera footage from the
shooting, but it is not clear when that footage will be released. Some
of the protesters also called for Newsham to be fired or resign from his
position.
EDITOR'S NOTE: DC police released the body cam footage and it clearly shows Kay facing the cops and holding a semi-automatic pistol in his right hand.
It was also revealed that Kay was a 'validated gang member.'
But never mind, the poor gangbanger had his life taken by Newsham's gang of killer cops that are terrorizing the city.

The BLM psychopaths don't care about right or wrong, legal or not legal. They care about Black and non-Black. They are a political movement trying to destroy America and using racial leverage to do it.
