Meek Mill Slams Coverage of UnitedHealthcare CEO’s Murder While Gun Violence Runs Rampant

Meek Mill is never one to mince words on X. He shared his thoughts on Wednesday (Dec. 11) regarding the rampant gun violence in America while pressing the media for being hung up on the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, who was shot and killed in New York City earlier this month.

“100 kids get murdered in my hood the press stuck on one CEO,” he began. “I will never get it! When somebody put me to the challenge I’ll collect 1000 guns off Philadelphia street without snitching just helping clean my community! I ain’t come this far for off games! Only pain and growth.”

Meek continued: “Rip to that CEO too his life matters too! Never over looking the life of a human unless they’re a danger to society and I don’t know anything about no healthcare ceos except ‘CINQCARE’ because they are for us!!!!!”

The Dream Chasers boss then turned his attention to gun violence and revealed he was stopped from launching a program to get 1,000 guns off the street. Meek also voiced his frustration at being harassed by authorities over obtaining guns to protect himself when traveling.

“Guns are for sale by the boatload in the streets, I choose to buy from the store legally and still getting harrased like I’m buying guns for people,” he added. “Y’all don’t even want me protecting me and my family legally! Racism lurking in my home state!”

The Philly native questioned why police allegedly continue to investigate his gun ownership across his home state of Pennsylvania, and Meek believes a racist motive could be at play.

“Old white men pursing young black men need to be monitored,” Meek penned. “Because I will never lay down again…. I already had cops say I pointed firearms at them and had to live as a felon for years and I knew that wasn’t my character! They tortured me already!”

Since his release from prison in 2018, Meek has done plenty of work when it comes to reforming the criminal justice system and transforming the parole and probation system in his role as co-chair of the Reform Alliance.
