This is an absolute disgrace!! I'm so sorry that Roger had this happen to him!! He should still be here today!! I'm going to be completely honest. The majority of my family are police officers, but that doesn't stop me from being scared of the police myself. It isn't always about the color issue. I'm a white female, and trust me, I have had my own issues with law enforcement, which I did absolutely nothing to deserve what had happened to me. They were white and African American officers. I absolutely do believe alot of these officers take the "law" into their own hands. I'm not trying to make this about me. Please understand that. I will pray that Roger gets the justice he deserves!! Thank you, Roger, for serving for our country!! You truly were a stand-up man!!🫡🙏🏻💜🙏🏻

Just because they say police and you know they have no reason to be there, in today's society why wouldn't you be wise to be safe, wasn't he trained to take precautions at all times and not give anyone the benefit of the doubt, no one earns my trust and I can't see you, the officer should have shown he was a police officer, even then I'm not just to open my door, and there's nothing going on inside my residence. That's called TRIGGER HAPPY. THAT'S IT AND THAT'S ALL, it's certainly not about a dollar. God be with this family.

It is not legal to have a handgun in a position that could kill the police officer. The move from a safe handgun position to a firing position would have taken 1 or 2 seconds at most. Why in the name of common sense would the airman have a handgun to the door ? It's disgusting that you decided to be a civil rights Savior. Why are you trying to play god ?

If there was a 911 call, the person who called should be identified. The leasing office person if employee or not is accountable for speaking on what she was not certain on other than what she had heard. She is fully accountable for the running of her mouth on an innocent person. The deputy who stated all was hearsay by a fourth party (whoever he meant) should also be held accountable. And, the deputy’s actions in heading toward an apartment without verification of a 911 call of where the call was from or on whom it was on was intentional negligence. He overused his authority and title thereby making the egregious decision to go to the apartment he was directed to by the leasing office female without verifying its call via dispatch first. He, with full and intentional malice, and going by what he was told by the leasing office female already had hate on his way toward the apartment intentionally and without thought executed the innocent victim who was in his own home with his own registered weapon; never pointed at the deputy; without his finger on the trigger; of no opposing threat to the deputy; with a calm demeanor; obeyed his order; knew not why the deputy was there before his demise; is executed in cold blood just because the deputy decided to do so way before he had even arrived at the door. The deputy’s demeanor as he knocks and stepping away from the door shows his mental thoughts of a possible weapon on the other side of the door. This was his thought. And, if he saw a gun, he was going to shoot. He shot not once for what would have been lie #1: Felt threatened, but he shot him six times. This amount of shots is intentional malice with hateful forethought. My condolences to the family. It is heartfelt. I do not know the family nor Mr. Fortson, but I felt the pain. There should be no administrative leave. That deputy should be in jail as should be the leasing office female and whoever called, if there was a 911 call at all. The deputy should go to jail for life. No amount of money will bring back this young man ever. 😢🙏🏼

Cops "are equal opportunity" for harming citizens. All need CSPOA Constitution training, or Hillsdale College's free online Constitution class for LEO's, or Abiyah Israel's We The People training. Better screening needed. Kids and elderly are routinely cuffed supposedly for cops' safety. I do not believe this is about racism, but it may be a neighbor weaponizing the cops. The courts also are corrupt. Reprobate takes kids from good parents based on the "hot tip."

He actually said "step outside" and then started shooting. That part took me aback. I had to play it numerous times and then I holy sh*t, this cop crapped his pants and realized he should have given the command 1st before he started to treat the person like a fish in a barrel and unloaded lead into his torso. It was almost like his actions were working faster than his brain. Almost like it was pre-meditated or he was ready for a potential confrontation because of the nature of the call? Was the officer's gun already unholstered. Some are saying there was a click which could have meant the officer was unholstering his weapon when the door opened. Then if that is the case that would mean he actually started shooting as soon as he unholstered his weapon. He immediately thought the person was a threat it seems. Also, can we address the sheriff's claim they in fact had the correct apartment? So why is there no more discussion about that because the guy as it appears was there by himself.

Then i realized he was already shooting before he gave his command. I can almost wonder the shock of the serviceman when he was being shot not just once multiple times and I am almost 100% sure the officer knew he had effed up. Oddly enough or not apparently the serviceman's phone was still rolling and the she caught some audio from the cop that may not put him in the best light. I am wondering as well did the officer immediately call for medical or did he try to offer medical assistance at all? I do not recall any discussion of that? Either way it is all effed up no matter how you cut it.

This mother is one of the most powerful speakers. I have ever heardon't worry about not having fancy words. Ma'am, you brought me to tears with your simple ones. My son was the same. Always doing the right thing and helping out and went into the Marines after graduating high school so he could help me. I can't imagine your pain and frustration. At the way society treats black men, especially young black men of such good high caliber. I have cried with you and said so many prayers and will continue to do so. Thank you for standing and bearing witness for your son. And standing up against corruption. When you told them that they could come to your son's funeral when they told the truth and cleared the air. I cheered out loud for you. Every child deserves a mother as strong as you and as loving and tenacious!! Keep being you keep staying strong and inspiring the rest of us and make God continue to bless you much love from a marine mom in Vermont.

I was in the US Army for 11 years. They teach you about hostile intents, pointing a weapon toward and individual and hostile threats, pointing and shooting at an individual. That's why you see Roger holding the weapon pointed down with his finger off the trigger. Roger was never a threat to the officer. How easy is it to say drop your weapon instead of shooting someone six times!!!

The officer knocked on the door and then moved away from the peephole, so that the officer can bait the citizen to go and retrieve a weapon. Because the citizen not knowing who was at the door banging hysterically.. This young man was a dedicated soldier of the United States that the officer baited. This was murder because the officer knew exactly the outcome of his actions. We love and cherish our law enforcement however when you deliberately cause an act of confusion over the powerless you are as guilty as the people you are coming to arrest..

He didn't wait for his backup. I'm a dispatcher in a large city and some of our veteran cops become complacent and do things like this as well. I had an officer go to a domestic violence call to serve a protection from abuse order without telling me where he was going. He came over the air screaming and hollering asking for back up because he had gotten into a fight with the male in the home, was assaulted, his taser had been deployed but he missed and the male was able to flee the scene before I could get other officers there. And what made it even worse is that the officer didn't know what floor of the apartment building he was on. I thought he was still at the district and was confused as to where to send him help. Needless to say, he got lucky that day because it could've gone worse.

Tragic..., just Damn tragic. I am retired Air Force, my husband is retired Army..., we have two sons who are medically retired from the Army after returning from Iraq. Our youngest is currently serving in the Navy near Ft. Walton..., Eglin Air Force Base, in Florida. This hits home even closer because SrA Folson was at a base next to it. As a Black Woman..., who has raised these men along with my husband...., know ALL to well... we are "Without Sanctuary!!!" I pray justice is served, and America wakes up!!!!!!! #NOMORE!!!!!

Well they aren’t , believe me the apt complex don’t want that because we don’t know what was exactly reported and if the person Said they think it’s coming from this apt as opposed to they are certain then that’s liability to the complex and ole s them up for a law suit. They want to cover their tracks

As a retired veteran, the actions against Roger truly sickens me. There are actually people out here asking why the young man brought 'heat' with him to his front door. I'm thinking to myself - holy crap this is what us military guys commonly do when someone is beating on our house door and we don't hear a voice. Beating on doors and saying 'this is the police' is one of the top methods that home invaders currently use in metro areas throughout America. Roger never pointed his lawfully owned weapon towards the deputy. The deputy failed to use basic interpersonal skills to gain an understanding if he was at the right or wrong apartment after Roger opened his apartment door. Its as if the cop went through a mental 2 point biased checklist when Roger opened the door: #1 - is this a black man...Yeup, #2 - does he have a weapon in his hand....Yeup. The deputy immediately stared firing at Roger after his two-question, bias mental checklist met the 'YES' requirement. The deputy failed to ask Roger to place his weapon down so they could talk before he hauled off 6 rounds into Roger. This was plain murder. That deputy saw a black man with a gun and thought - 'I'm gonna get this black dude' F- it. That deputy owes a life term for what he did and I wish my brothers with the AFOSI happy hunting on their investigation into the shooting.

All True American Patriots needs to take a stand. This ain’t just a civilian, this was a young man that was currently serving his country and exercising his 2A. This is scary. Americans no longer can feel safe in their own home even with a LEGAL firearm. This goes beyond the color of your skin, race, ethnicity or gender. This can happen to anyone at anytime and any place. May God bless his soul and and his family with the strength to recover from this tragic incident.
