A journalist and advocate who rose from homelessness and addiction to serve as a spokesperson for Philadelphia’s most vulnerable was shot and killed at his home early Monday, police said.
Josh Kruger, 39, was shot seven times at about 1:30 a.m. and collapsed in the street after seeking help, police said. He was pronounced dead at a hospital a short time later. Police believe the door to his Point Breeze home was unlocked or the shooter knew how to get in, The Philadelphia Inquirer reported. No arrests have been made and no weapons have been recovered, they said.
Authorities haven’t spoken publicly about the circumstances surrounding the killing.
It isn’t xenophobia We’re not afraid of Americans we’re just sick of America’s complete refusal to improve even marginally, because “oh no not the constitution”.
the issue is assuming that every american wants this. lumping all of us in with the weirdos who shoot up innocent people when we want that to change.
you want a revolution? fantastic. tell me. how do I start that? one person using a cheap smartphone to reply to a forum on. working a minimum wage job because that’s all I can do right now.
I take issue with people pretending that every american is a school shooter or a redneck. we are all just normal people. the violence you see on your headlines want to grab your attention with vitriol towards a country.
never solving the problem. if anything, making the issue worse. not better. it just separates the human issues and forces anger towards something that buys clicks.
