Let's talk about the elephant in the room that nobody wants to talk about.
Why is it whenever a black person dies at the hands of police, Caucasian police in particular, and the investigation doesn't come out the way black people want, almost inevitably they destroy their own neighborhoods? I've been watching this kind of behavior since I was in high school in 1968.
Mexican Americans get shot by police too. Two recent stories:
Regardless of who was right or wrong in the above two incidents, the local Mexican American community isn't going out and destroying their own neighborhoods making an already bad situation much worse.
The fact that the City of Louisville had to prepare for riots, violence and destruction before the findings of their investigation were released says something very disturbing, and at the same time, tragically predictable. This type of behavior seems to be unique to African American communities. Is there a rational explanation for this? Is asking the question forbidden?
Just one month before she died, Breonna was spotted in HER car WITH Jamarcus stopping at 2424 Elliot Avenue. This is the exact same house where Jamarcus was arrested the same early morning as when Breonna was shot. In that house was recovered multiple weapons and drugs.
And there are numerous jail phone calls between Jamarcus and Breonna, and Jamarcus used her phone number and address as contact info.
Contrary to the liars out there, Jamarcus was hardly just an 'ex' boyfriend, he was someone heavy in the drug trade that Breonna continued to associate with and contact on a regular basis.

One of the lies being repeated here is that riots are happening right now, at 5:24 p.m. EDT, in downtown Louisville. Not so - live broadcasts show a few hundred, both black and white, mostly young, peaceful protesters walking away from downtown up Bardstown Road, a major thoroughfare through pleasant older middle-class neighborhoods, lined with trendy restaurants and shops. They seem to be near the Midland Avenue intersection at present.
Police have a heavy presence, very obviously, but if there are any confrontations or violence, it's not appearing on several live videos directly from the scene.
There are the usual signs (and what does that say for our times that such signs are "usual" now??), occasional chants of "Breonna Taylor", "This is what democracy looks like", and "Black lives matter", but it's all verbal and so far, peaceful. Interviews with protesters reveal a great deal of sadness as well as determination for needed change to happen.
Hope the peace continues, and that neither protesters nor police become confrontational.
Are you unaware they have already arrested dozens of protestors? That they have confiscated multiple weapons, including AR-15s? That they have already had to shoot out smoke pellets several times? And that many of those privileged white brats are calling black cops “n—-r� That bricks have been thrown through windows in St. Matthews? That marchers tried to storm Fisher’s neighborhood?
There is a live stream - watch it. It’s been peaceful so far only because they are quickly arresting people.

If it makes you feel any better in Louisville they are throwing bricks at stores in Yuppie Land (St Matthews) tonight.

Nowhere in that link does it say Breonna Taylor was involved in anything beyond putting a car rental in her name and a phone she let him use. Stuff like this is most likely why she broke up with the drug dealer. Women date deadbeats/"badboys" all the time it doesnt mean they are involved with what the deadbeats/badboys do. The only think Glover even mentions about Breonna is "the bank state got Bre address on it". That was about as wild as it got. And Breonna had moved on to date a guy that had none of these issues. He (the drug dealer) even calls the rented car his car, not hers.
make sure you read the link.
again, Breonna Taylor had nothing to do with drugs. Her current boyfriend didn't. Her roommate didn't. The police just wanted some action. This is murder.
Do some research!!!! You people kill me - talking about carp when you haven't done your research. Here's the police report - Breanna was up to it to her ears. She had money she hid in the house for Jamarcus - she received money from him a couple of days before she died.
She was hardly the angel the media tries to portray her as.
Total BS. You didn't read the link. The police have recorded conversations between Taylor and others specifically discussing drugs, money, etc. And did you read about the dead body found in Taylor's rental car? All in the link to the local news source I posted. Read it.
No they don't. And like i said, the rental car was in her name, but he drove it. This stuff is most likely why she stopped messing with this guy. He was/is a jail bird.
None of calls indicate her being involved in anything. It's all one sided hearsay from a drug dealer to his baby mama. In case you didn't figure it out...the drug dealer was lying to the baby mama cuz he was still messing with her. "Naw baby I aint a drug dealer its Breonna." There's a reason she (Breonna Taylor) has no charges. She moved on. She had a whole new boyfriend. The police really had no reason to believe Breonna was still talking to this guy.
And that's if you believe anything the police have to say.
and i'll repeat: Why is their a settlement if the police did nothing illegal?"
Just one month before she died, Breonna was spotted in HER car WITH Jamarcus stopping at 2424 Elliot Avenue. This is the exact same house where Jamarcus was arrested the same early morning as when Breonna was shot. In that house was recovered multiple weapons and drugs.

They don't want facts - as they've been presented the past few months already - they just can't believe the media would lie to them.

You're hopeless. Wake up!!! Taylor was in it up to her neck. Recorded conversations evidence, photo evidence, homicide victim ("an associate") found in her rental car, and all.
nice gig for the cops... $60-$80 an hour to stand around doing nothing.
