Leonard Allen Cure resisted arrest during a traffic stop, authorities say. He'd gotten $817,000 in compensation in August from Florida, where he'd been behind bars.

A man who spent more than 16 years in prison in Florida on a wrongful conviction was shot and killed Monday by a sheriff’s deputy in Georgia during a traffic stop, authorities and representatives said.

Leonard Allen Cure, 53, was identified by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation, which is reviewing the shooting.

      Aren’t we mostly software developers and general tech nerds here? Maybe we could make some sort of statement, or impact using those skills?

        Those are actually spook accounts and this is not the first time they tried to forum slide when people talk about revolution.

        Do NOT engage with them at all. Don’t say anything to them. Just downvote the hell out of them and ignore them because they want people to argue so they can forum slide

          Forum slide? That doesn’t even remotely apply to this situation, unless I’m misunderstanding you somehow.

          They’re just making fun of you because your comment has a very Navy SEAL confirmed badass copypasta feel to it. Feels over reals.
