I mean, it happens at least weekly somewhere in the country…a cop that shouldn’t be a cop, overly fearful (cowardly, one might say) and sure that his authority extends to shooting people just because the cop isn’t feeling safe (“Officer Safety!!!”) …. (and because they believe that “Qualified Immunity” covers all of their actions) shoots and possibly kills someone, somewhere in the country, when circumstances indicate otherwise….
It isn’t always a black person and a white cop, but when it is, that makes it “Special” somehow.
Even more so when it is an election year.…Then it gets sensationalized in the press.
Someone is riling up the black people in Chicago (and, apparently, other large cities) over this.
Thing is, few, if any, of the people attending the protests even know where this happened or any of the details…all they know is that a white cop shot a black woman….(it was a bad shoot, and the cop should NEVER have been a cop, having been kicked out of something like 6 other police departments, and the cop is now charged with murder).
The details do not matter to most of these people, the fact that the cop is charged with murder doesn’t matter, the fact that black people kill each other at a rate that is easily 30 times that of cops (all cops, not just white ones) doesn’t matter. All that matters to the people being agitated is that it was a white cop and a black woman. That’s the headline part of every story, and that’s ail they hear. Not “Cop charged with murder after bad shooting”. Nope,,,, Not “Cop charged with murder after shooting woman”….Nope…..What they headline is “WHITE Cops shoots BLACK woman”!!. And that is all that maters to them Black person…White cop does something wrong…. Discrimination. .
Of course the DNC types some across as sympathetic and promise to help, but for 4 generations (that I have observed) they’ve not done so. They ignore the black people 3 years out of 4…you’d think the black folks would get wise, but they never seem to do so.
The DNC need the black people riled up so they can present themselves as the saviors of black people and get them angry enough to vote (and vote DNC) . ….and things like this provide a perfect vehicle to rile ’em up.
And it works.
Blacks kill each other at a higher rate, but that doesn’t matter…white cop kills black is all that matters.
Right on time for the election. Remeber, this sort of shit happens every day, or at least every week across america.
