Bryan Malinowski, executive director of Bill and Hillary Clinton National Airport in Little Rock, was fatally wounded in a shootout as ATF agents tried to serve a search warrant at his home.
An executive for the Little Rock, Arkansas, airport who was killed in a shootout with federal agents this week had been under investigation over gun sales, search warrant records unsealed Thursday show.
Bryan Malinowski, 53, who was executive director of Bill and Hillary Clinton National Airport, was shot after he opened fire at federal agents who arrived to serve a warrant Tuesday morning, officials said.
Malinowski died Thursday, his family said. His brother has said he was shot in the head.
You know how in the USA you’re supposedly innocent until PROVEN guilty? Yeah well being shot to death in your own house while being innocent in accordance of the law says you have no rights at all.
He could have been guilty. We don’t know. He was never tried. He was executed in cold blood as an innocent man.
I am usually against gun violence in general but it’s hard to sympathise when you’re the first one to shoot someone. At least that has been the report so far and from what little his family had shared, it is likely the truth. He wasn’t executed but died to his own stupidity based on what we know as of now.
The ATF said that people at Waco and Ruby Ridge shot first too, turns out that was a lie.
We shouldn’t believe a word they say about this case yet, wait for an investigation to take place. For some ungodly reason, they have a track record of fabricating gun charges against people, surrounding their home with armed men, and claiming they were shot at first when stories like this hit the news.
That’s why I said as far as we know for now in multiple places. I am not saying I believe them either, quite the opposite actually. I don’t believe then but I wouldn’t disbelieve them and assume the victim is telling the truth. There are examples of both being wrong but some often make up their mind and blindly trust one party over other. You should always base it on the available information and change your opinion when something new comes to light.
Did Breonna Taylor die for her boyfriends “stupidity”? Police raids are often indistinguishable from a criminal invasion to a groggy target. “What we know right now” doesn’t tell us anything about the actions of the cops leading up to the shooting…
Rednecks fought for the right to shoot an intruder in your house. It doesn’t matter if he was stupid or guilty. He shot someone breaking into his house with his legally acquired weapons while a completely innocent man.
If that’s no longer allowed then let’s make it law. Because now, it’s just hypocrisy
Federal agents executing a search warrant are not “breaking in”. Are you being purposefully stupid or something?
Smart enough to not be a bootlicker.
ACAB. Americans are the stupidest pieces of shit in the world.
That’s rich coming from you, let’s leave it at that. This sound more and more like troll now.
Then maybe don’t start shooting when agents come to your door with a valid search warrant.
You challenge things in court, not with a gun.
That’s the opposite argument every weapon carrying redneck in America uses. You serve justice at the door, not the court.
Serving a no knock at dawn by a paramilitary force is not something that happens in a free democracy.
Fuck these and all police.
