An anti-violence activist who spray-painted “no shoot zone” in hundreds of spots in Baltimore, Maryland, was shot on Wednesday.
48-year-old Tyree Moorehead was shot in an incident in East Baltimore around the corner from his residence.
Moorehead was initially taken to a hospital, but he left later that day and walked back to his home to accost the police that were searching his residence.
Video from the bizarre scene showed that he was still in medical scrubs and a hairnet when he arrived and told reporters he was upset that he couldn’t feed his birds inside the home.
“I was shot three times. Bullet went through my jaw and my neck, and one is still in my back,” said Moorehead to a reporter from WJZ-TV.
He told another reporter that he wasn’t discharged but had just walked out of the hospital.
Moorehead’s neighbors told WJZ that he is very aggressive and has regularly antagonized them. He also said that police had been searching his home for three days.
He was then picked up by paramedics and taken back to the hospital.In 2019, Moorehead helped organize a community effort to buy clothes and toys for two children who had been shot and he spray-painted “no shoot zone” at the scene of the crime. He told a WMAR-TV reporter that he had been convicted for being a shooter and that made him the perfect activist to advocate against gun violence.”I can look them in the eyes and say, ‘Homie, I was shooting, too.’ But, what I didn’t have was a me back then,” he explained at the time.Moorehead has spray-painted about two hundred of the “no shoot zone” messages across Baltimore, sometimes marking where a previous shooting has already occurred.Statistics from the city say that there have been 179 homicides thus far recorded, making it on pace to […]
Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
