There does not really need to be examples. If you want to be treated like blacks are today, then you need the history of blacks in the yesterdays. If blacks had the history of being treated equally as whites, a white police officer killing a black man would not be a racial story today, just police abuse. What has made this a racial story is the long history of racism from whites society upon blacks. You can't live with that history. Actions create reactions, however. This is the America that is the consequence of past white America and what they did.
If you have a problem with reactions being different for blacks and whites....then take it up with Grand ma and Grand pa or maybe even mom and pops and their racial attitudes. This is the world they left you. This is your inheritance.
I was asking for examples of black cops shooting whites, and the outcomes. Not a history lesson from Clarance X, lol. But what you seem to be saying here is that because of history, we must assume that any instance of white cops and black arrestees must be due to racism.
I would say the police officer who killed the man is responsible for the riots, and to a point, he certainly is... But police officers overstep their bounds all too often and kill people unnecessarily, and people usually don't riot, destroy their own neighborhood, etc. It only seems to happen when it's a white cop killing a black male, and the media proceeds to latch onto the story and blast it in everyone's face day after day, hour after hour. It's as if this is the exact response the media is hoping for, since it leads to even juicier stories for them to report on.
When white or black cops kill white males, the news media typically ignores it, or gives it very little coverage. I have seen some very obvious examples of this happening, like the case of Daniel Shaver. This story should have received just as much attention.
As usual you are mostly speaking nonsense, but that Daniel Shaver video was more scarring that any other video I seen, that kid was trying to comply with the conflicting orders from that cop, who was demanding this kid play error free twister even though he was clearly drunk. The media covered pretty well.
voters in minneapolis elected a democrat mayor, city council and state governor. the police chief and at least two of the four floyd arresting officers were minorities.
When was the last time we saw a video of a white guy killed by excess force by the police? If you can't see the pattern here then you are part of the problem.
"A video of the shooting, captured on the body camera of a third officer and shown several times during the trial, shows Few raising his hands out the window of the Kia Sportage during the shooting.
"He shot 14 times while my hands were in the air," Few said Friday morning while addressing the court. "He just kept shooting."
Likely the cops were afraid he had a weapon and that they could lose their own lives and were not about to let him make any sudden move. To put their knee on anyone's neck is unacceptable and uncalled for regardless of their race, gender etc. It isn't about race.
The leftist media and leftist instigators will use any tragedy to push an political agenda.
Sorry, that lie don't fly. When a leftist will support PP who sells aborted baby parts and are okay with that baby being aborted in the first place, I hardly think anyone believes they give a damn about some adult human's abuse. They just have to grab at any opportunity they can to be noisy and get noticed.
Agree, and it was horrible, but it was white people who did not agree and fought to change the laws (along with some brave AA). Where I draw the line is that justifying the clown show we are seeing in Minnesota. Unless your immediate safety at large is under threat by the government, then there is no excuse for the violence we are seeing. It is a shallow mind that thinks everything that happens on the streets with police is racially motivated.
Huh? That was front page news when it happened and the cop was charged and got 12 years.
You guys just make up anything to feel like victims?
