I think we all know that the situation in some of the crappy American cities is a far cry from the glitz and glamour of Hollywood and New York City that we were sold back in the 90s, but I’m not sure if we could imagine just how bad it is judging by this video.

The video seems to come from downtown St Louis on Monday morning, where some random guy calmly spends about a minute loading his gun in the middle of the street in broad daylight before putting it to the head of a homeless guy and blowing his brains out. It’s obviously a very disturbing video so don’t watch it if you aren’t ready to see someone getting shot in the head.

What the actual fxck is going on there? There’s just so much about the video that is completely messed up, Where is everyone? Why is nobody trying to stop the guy from loading his gun and why are they filming the guy instead? Why is the homeless guy just sitting there waiting for it to happen? What the hell is going on in St Louis?
Some people will say that the video is faked but it’s got around 7 million views at the time of writing and there are enough articles from the city about the police being called out to suggest that it’s 100% real. The suspect has been identified as Deshawn Thomas, who was apparently arguing with the dead man outside a Shell garage earlier in the day; he has now been arrested after trying to hide in a public library.
Imagine he’ll be convicted fairly shorty. What an absolutely mad thing for him to do for seemingly no apparent reason? Well I guess they were having an argument but what the hell are you arguing about to illicit that reaction?
For more of the same, check out this heroic homeless man getting shot dead after saving the life of a woman held hostage. A much better way to go.
