Sorry Mick, but to Progressives, the men you mentioned aren't considered "real" blacks.

Pretty weird, I know.

He made points with lefties when he went against George Bush. Not sure where he is now with them.

I have not seen one case where a black man got killed by the police or community watch where the person who was killed did not do something to cause the incident. When the police say stop then you should stop. When they stop you in your car; stay in your car or obey their order to get out. Do not assault a police officer.
Levar Jones didn't die, but he was shot and wounded.

Innocent victim of another police shooting calls for bodycams after traffic cop opened fire | Daily Mail Online

Levar Jones was shot and wounded by police officer in Columbia, South Carolina, when he was stopped and told to produce a license
He reached for his wallet and state trooper Sean Groubert opened fire, hitting him in the stomach

Levar Jones, 36, has no criminal record and was on his way home from his job at a Subway café.
John Crawford III

John Crawford, 22, was shot and killed by a police officer at a Walmart in Beavercreek, Ohio. There did not appear to be a confrontation with the police, and Crawford was unarmed — he had been holding a toy BB gun.

Akai Gurley

Akai Gurley, 28, was shot and killed by a police officer while walking in a dimly lit New York City public housing stairwell with his girlfriend. Gurley, who was unarmed, was pronounced dead at a hospital. New York Police Department Commissioner Bill Bratton called the shooting an “accidental discharge.”

Many of the others who were killed were mentally ill - being mentally ill should not be a death sentence. Others were scared and running away.

If he ran for POTUS, he'd have my vote (the WMD thing notwithstanding). The question is whether he would run as a Republican or Democrat. Condy is a no.
