      Are you legit victim blaming the dead on a comic about the effects of institutional racism, even in how black kids have a prejudiced introduction to growing up?

      Everyone should teach their kids what to do when they encounter a wild animal but apparently you think that’s enough license to blame them when they get bitten?

      In most countries failure to comply doesn’t carry a death sentence. Maybe I’m mad about that part. And maybe I’m mad because it’s disproportionate for black people. Maybe I’m mad because jogging while black and deaf shouldn’t put you at risk of police violence. Maybe I’m mad because even as a white lady cops look like they’re itching to get violent

          Breona Taylor was asleep when she was shot to death by police, how is it anything but a death sentence? and the worst part is no consequences for MAJOR fuckups like that. show me another profession where killing someone, intentionally or accidentally, doesn’t get you fired with criminal charges, and not just a vacation.

      Resisting arrest is not punishable by death. The cop is not a jury. If you choose to resist, the punishment should be reasonably forceful arrest.

      Also, some of the people you think were resisting arrest were sleep in their apartment. So…?

        So they definitely weren’t resisting a rest.

          Ah, the high risk situation of being called to deal with a man falsely accused of a non-violent crime, and an unruly mob of people keeping their distance and “begging the men with guns and armor not to murder a man in the street”. I can definitely understand why shitty cowards would feel threatened.

          lied about in court

          I’m gonna go with “nah”. He was found guilty, so he’s a guilty murderer.
          I’m shocked a bootlicker like yourself would have such doubts in the system. Or is it because they actually found a cop guilty and you just can’t accept such a travesty? Just think of all the black kids he could have threatened!

          Go to hell.

          I didn’t mention Floyd. The fact you have to put words in my mouth and then argue against them proves that you know you’re wrong.

            Ms Taylor’s killing should make anyone distrust the justice system. I don’t care if she shot first. Middle of the night home invasions are a situation in which one cannot assume reasonable avenues for retreat and if you don’t know it’s the cops why the fuck shouldn’t you be shooting.

            And it’s not like the cops actually help when you’ve actually had a home invasion…

      for every video you have, I’ve got 2 that show people of all colors getting fucked royaly by cops, most often just by hurting their feelings. is a cops thin skin, usually after initiating and talking down to a person, or cussing at them or threatening them, a valid reason for jamming them up or killing them?
