This is what's wrong with this administration. Why is his bail only $500 ??? Throw away the key, clean up the streets... Make it safe again for the normal people...

500 dollars bond and dude couldnt bail out? Lmfao

[@ChrisR2020]

I mean, I probably wouldn't be able to either, not with these prices at the grocery store. I got kids to feed.

[@greatmartini1]

He is a liberal which probably means he is unemployed. But it is weird that he can afford a weapon, ammunition, and other items but can't afford bail.

[@jlo7770]

[@ChrisR2020]

@greatmartini1 Let's get one thing clear, it doesn't just mean he is unemployed, it means he has a career of a criminal nature.

[@WE3LSC1937]

$500, SERIOUSLY???

[@lcfflc3887]

For what? Who was playing who?

[@t.c.2776]

Carrying a concealed firearm "illegally" near the RNC after one assassination attempt has been made... THEY want him to make bail and DISAPPEAR... Kamala may even be the one paying his bail like she did with all those "peaceful" RIOTERS...Now, if that was a white man that did that near the DNC... he's already be classified as a domestic terrorists and buried in a dark solitary confinement cell in a CIA Black Ops site in some foreign country...

[@pitchforkpeasant6219]

Clearly the left wanted him out. Guess they didnt think about how their tax increases have affected poor people too

low or no bond amounts shows you they are complicit in allowing this crime to surge

Standard milwaukee criminal walked into the wrong neighborhood. Doubt he had any interest in the RNC, just walked right into police hq 😆

[@srvntlilly]

$500?! Course they didn't have proof of where he was going. But why would he be in that specific area, otherwise?

[@DOR8421]

i came here to say this. i dont know what to think. they might get a search warrant.

[@kgreggbruce1552]

Because

[@jlo7770]

It's an ak pistol, a mask, gloves, spray paint. He was doing hood shit and didn't know what was going on. Idk wtf a "large tactical backpack" is but I'd assume he was just up to some normal illegal Milwaukee hood stuff. I'd be shocked if he was up to doing anything other than commiting black on black crime.

[@mikerilling6515]

There’s that spider haircut again

[@mikerilling6515]

“ tactical backpack” 😂😂😂😂 Homie doesn’t have a clue about what he’s talking about 😂😂

[@GarrysFerrone]

I wonder if the guy who had the weapon purchased it legally and had a permit to carry You never hear that when the weapon is illegal

Remember there were about 400 police at Uvalde before they finally went in against one untrained teenager.

[@pitchforkpeasant6219]

The police chief there is known as a huge democrat. Huge Beto supporter. The cops were ordered to “hold position”. Media left out the fact that the uvalde shooter was trans too

[@oldmangreywolf6892]

So many gun crimes in a city "fully protected" by gun laws.

[@carlnicodemus2993]

Why is this the 1st I've ever heard of this. I look at news everyday

[@Bigtimefithing]

I live in Milwaukee too! Wrong narrative! It wasn't a white trump supporter

[@Rascals357]

Daamn a black dude sheeesh!!

[@imhereforitall9218]

It's an open carry state so but for the dumb mask which a lot of young urban people wear which is ill advised they probably would not have stopped him. Just dumb walking there dressed like that. Clearly he was not up to anything nefarious regarding the RNC because with all that he was wearing he would have been better off carrying a sign saying stop me please. Should be charged for being an idiot.

[@andreastw3638]

Wtf.... the alarm is still high... u stil want go in?? 😂😂

When democracy is under threat,especially an assassination attempt on a candidate, we're gonna be hyper aware of ANY and ALL suspicious activities.

[@alexanderrahl7034]

You make an excellent point. He didn't immediately teleport yo the event, so I mean... there's really reason to believe that he might be on his way to anything nefarious. What, just because the event was hosting a former U.S president who just survived an assassination attempt? AND because the dude had a ski mask, a Scream mask, an AK and a single mag, walking in the direction of the convention? I mean come onnnnnn Folks totally be overacting 🙄🙄🙄 So are your ancestors smiling on your ability to recognize danger, or are they disappointed? Lol
