Meh, you pretty much went straight to Trump with George’s murder. That’s on you making the President a part of this, but I won’t hold it against you either. It’s election season and I get it.
Well if you can’t see the difference of making a point about the type of person that would support him, and not Trump himself. Guess I didn’t explain it well enough.
When a popular highschool jock becomes a cop, he loses all of his friends within the first 5 years.
Right now, departments the nation over are scooping up as many combat veterans as possible. Their war-habits are destroying reputations in all areas of civilian law enforcement.
They can’t keep this up. “White America” is beginning to take “your” side in strides with regards to the god-awful people being paid to lord over unarmed civilians.
I don’t get what that one cop (especially) had in his head. He heard the crowd. He knew he was being recorded. But the knee stayed on the neck. Even if the initial action was to restrain and control a resisting suspect, at some point his choice to keep the knee there became a deliberate decision to harm the guy.
I think that is one of the worse parts of the video. His face. Devoid of emotion. It does look like he enjoyed it. That’s what power in the wrong hands looks like.
I just saw a clip on the news. The cop kneeling on him has at least one hand in his pants pocket. Who do you know that kneels on a moveable object and puts a hand in their pocket?
At this point, I don’t know his motives or background to state whether this was based on race or not. Personally I don’t care. This is a ridiculous murder for no damn reason. It could be any guy or gal in that position.
