More State Sanctioned Murder

[spicysista]

The next time someone suggests, tongue in cheek or not, that more African Americans need to walk around with guns......remember this story. The "gun" was a cellphone this time. It has been a wallet in other incidents. The rules are always different for us. That's just how the country was founded. Sadly, it continues to be the modus operandi.

2. Thank you for this post.

I wish Killer Mike and those that listen to him would realize this reality. They love to talk about how all we need is a gun. Then magically the police will stop murdering us.

3. Spot on, rouge emissary.

Too much precious blood has already been spilled. I am not for doing anything that would provide them with a "reason" to take another Black life. John Crawford and Tamir only had toy guns.........in an open carry state.........and look what happened to them. It's almost too much. Smdh.

4. Yeap, just having a toy gun is enough to get you shot.

That makes it a justifiable shooting in some people's eyes. Because who could tell a toy gun from a real one in a few seconds. Which is why there are a lot of people that shouldn't be police.
