led to the shooting. Officials also say many of the
witnesses were not cooperating. President Trump threatening land strikes in

his thoughts on the shooting of Renee Good by a

in his own words, when it was time for Trump
to serve in the military, he did what rich white
boys do. Ventura said what happened to Good did not

need to happen, and he called it murder. He said
America is a third world country now, and he would
know because he spent seventeen months in Southeast Asia while
