“Why didn’t they use a taser?” said his father, Walter Wallace Sr.
“His mother was trying to diffuse the situation,” he said. He said his son struggles with mental health issues and is on medication.
“He has mental issues. Why you have to gun him down?”
Walter Wallace Jr., 27, a twin, father, and son, was shot 10 times by police, said his father, Walter Wallace Sr.

Another night of unrest in this country because of blood spilt on a Philadelphia Street by police. After using the summer to do so little to address police violence @atlcouncil will decide Monday whether to expand police power, knowing they have not even meaningfully examined it.
the people tasked with keeping the public safe are granted near immunity to kill. on saturday, they killed a fleeing 19-year-old. it is at least the 81st police shooting in GA this year. policing is violence. it cannot be reformed. jackerion jackson, RIP. https://t.co/A69Fvi8jN9
