  1. Hopefully the prosecutor goes for the death penalty on this one.

  2. JUDGED BY THE CONTENT OF THEIR CHARACTER NOT BY THE COLOR OF THEIR SKIN 😡 MARTIN LUTHER KING HAD A DREAM THAT'S BECOME OUR NIGHTMARE 😠

  3. As long as good guys have guns, bad guys will get their guns and this will continue to happen.

  4. Surgeon fault for mistreating a kangz

  5. Funny they referenced the shooting at Kroger when the nost recent mass shooting was the one at the " Christian" elementary school where the shooter was a transgender☝️ that tatical response was perfect and of more training value then what they spoke of here…media proganda once again…☝️

  6. Doctors gotta stay strapped these days.

  7. Brazilian butt lift gone wrong?

  8. IT’s Memphis
    Can you guess ????

  9. Jews hiding the suspook
    Like they hide White Genocide

  10. This is what happens when you constantly reward and make excuses for a group of people and their bad behavior instead of giving them severe, lasting consequences.

  11. Medical professionals are procedure repeating non listening idiots so this is to be expected

  12. Take the guns. Period.

  13. Will thoughts and prayers keep guns out of this hospital in the future?

  14. Probably loss a lawsuit the patient deserved.

  15. Slava ukraine! Slava ukraine! more funds and let us join NATO and invoke Article 5. Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦 Slava Ukraine

  16. Everyone STOP!! You need to understand these dr’s aren’t writing pain Rx anymore because the dea has put a stop to it!! I am sorry for the dr but you need to know all of the facts before jumping to conclusions!! Look it up, there’s been several dr’s that have been assaulted because they are saying no to pain meds for their patients!! Pharmacy’s are also getting quotes of how many pain meds they can sell!! Ask someone in the medical field what’s going on with pain meds!!! This is also why so many had turned to fentanyl!!!!!

  17. Now we'll talk more about guns, rather the problem of evil and/or mental illness that plagues our world.

  18. How awful. What a waste of an excellent life by a low life of our society.

  19. Another one of those white supremacists ole sniffy Joe Biden warned us about?

  20. Is another one of those white supremacists ole sniffy Joe warned us about?

  21. Don't we mean "Black Man kills unarmed white man" Why is this not the headline??? This hypocrisy is disgusting already!!!

  22. There needs to be an FBI investigation into the entire Healthcare Industry … Let me guess Doctor didn't take his Black patient seriously because he's Black or Doctor was purposely messing up this man's Insurance Claim because he Black … It's been known to happen … Just this time he just picked the wrong Black Person to do it too…. In prison he'll get all the medical care he need they fix'em right on up , Because you can't collect for a dead prisoners , Right?…

  23. Terribly and completely if not utterly senseless…💔🙏🏾😔 May Dr. Mauk rest in peace always, my upmost sincerest condolences to his loved ones & so forth.

  24. This so sad. Need more mental health in this country. I think he did surgery on my mom. Did awesome work. PRAYERS FOR FAMILY AND FRIENDS!

  25. At a major hospital near me the emergency room has a police sub station on the campus.

  26. This is why our Country is failing. Too many violent mentally ill people, and no place to put them. And the other reason for failure is people constantly suing and mistreating the police.

  27. You are going to feel some pressure

  28. I want to hear the reason.
