Two men are dead after police say they were impersonating officers at a southeast Houston home overnight.

The homeowner told police the two men said they were police and claimed they were at the home to serve a warrant.

[The homeowner] became suspicious, because, you know, they have a ring camera too, and the suspects were saying they had a warrant, but it was just two people and they’re masked up and no police cars, no lights or anything like that," said Lt. Khan with HPD.

At some point, police said the men shot at the homeowner through the door, prompting the homeowner to return fire.

The homeowner was not hurt in the gunfire, but the two men were both hit and pronounced dead at the scene.

    Exactly, I defended myself against a bully in school and the fucking school admin called the police on me. Fuck everyone involved with that school admin. ACAB.

    I was like 17, I was not born in this country.

    I was so lucky that my mother naturalized as a US Citizen (edit: because Child Citizenship Act automatically made me a Citizen so I don’t have to do Naturalization myself), because imagine having to explain to the USCIS Natualization officer about the arrest record. Because they ask about all arrests, as in: any that ever happened, including those that did not result in convictions, or even crimes that were sealed expunged, or pardoned. They can see those records so lying is pointless (and they could retroactively revoke any immigration benefits obtained when they find out in the future).

    “Innocent until proven guilty” yea right, totally. If you are white and citizen at birth, maybe, cuz otherwise they can fuck over your life, tell you to go to a country you’ve never been in for a decade.

    Fuck CCP for ruining my birth country. Fuck USCIS, fuck ICE, fuck conservatives. So many adversaries I have to deal with in this fucked up universe.

      Yep, I defended myself against an intellectually disabled bully who bit me randomly, the teachers high fived him, and I got suspended for the day. I was super young at the time, but I still remember it vividly, and now that I’m older I’m lucky that it wasn’t worse and that they didn’t try calling the police on me at the time even though I was only defending myself but it was still a fucked up situation regardless.
