Keep saying people are targeting ALL delivery drivers. DoorDash, Uber, Lyft, GrubHub, Amazon, Postal workers, etc. We’ve been at the times, where you NEED TO BE ARMED. Especially while driving. Those fools just see you as an easy target.

[@My2CentsYall]

The only problem with your statement is he is black. You cant be armed and black in America or the cops will kill you.

[@camronwillis7172]

It's crazy but gotta keep that 🔥 every where ya go

[@sayitaintso7544]

An Amazon driver got the upper hand and took out a would be robber. Most often the robbers get the upper hand. Just couldnt work for delivery companies knowing they have such a big target on their back.

The gas station has security cameras even at the pump. The people that killed this man has to be non-black. If they were black, their descriptions would have been released. The car rental also has GPS on their rental vehicles. These people location shouldn’t be an issue because the car rental company should be cooperating with the police investigation.
