Notice how it ignores the message behind black lives matter which is exactly what they're talking about:

Yes, all lives do matter, that's a given. No one disputes that. The only reason is called a racist phrase is because people who adopt this phrase refuse to look at the overwhelming evidence of the claims by BLM and instead insist that their claims are invalid The argument being made concerning the message of black lives matter is that while everyone holds this value (all lives matter) to be true, the value fails when concerning the criminal justice system and the African American community.

This is what police do is they ask "can I get and ID" people idiotically don't give them any and run away police chase them down (they are criminals at this point) and then they do something stupid and it gets them killed that's what happens 90% of the time.

I wonder how many reports have been falsified in the past, or even politicized? As we have seen in the past four years, you can politicize anything and stretch and skew the truth to fit your agenda. Hell Jim Jordan is an artist at such things. It's too bad police cams aren't always recording either...I wonder how often African Americans get harassed by racist police. Or for that matter, how many police refuse to help African Americans because of their color when they are reporting racial harassment?

Or, in the case of Elijah McLain, he was immediately set upon by the police for simply walking down the street with a plastic bag. They instantly restrained him. Died minutes later due to chemical restraint.

It is not uncommon to see police assaulting people when it isn't warranted. Running away from the police does not warrant the death penalty unless you are signaling that you are a very dangerous threat to nearby citizens. If you're just running, it is illegal for the police to shoot you; police are not given a free reign to kill at a whim.

Sorry, not sorry.

Carotid chokehold is not a chemical restraint.

A police officer even threatened McLain that he would get his dog out of the car to bite him even as McLain was apologizing, trying to cooperate, in spite of his disability, and the panic that resulted from it.

The medicine is what finished him off. Which was complicated by his rapid heart rate, high blood pressure and flight response from adrenaline. He would not have needed to be chemically restrained if the officers attacked him on sight. (Which they did.) Nine seconds into the stop when he wasn't doing anything wrong. Except "Be suspicious."

They inhumanely restrained him and terrified him to reach this condition.

I was wrong, the coroner said he died due to physical exertion and...

... wait for it...

a narrow coronary artery...

The whole time, he was being compliant not showing any violence. THe kid was autistic and had no idea what was going on. If the police did some... you know, policing... they would have deducted that he was nuerodiverse. If they had walked with him, he would have told them everything he wanted to know. He didn't run, he just walked, slowly at that.

Yet the carotid hold is what killed him.

The medicine just made it impossible to recover him, I imagine.

No, you don't go to medical school. You take medical classes. There's a difference. Thanks for playing though. I volunteered at a firestation nearly 10 years ago, then went on to be an EMT, then took classes for Medical Assisting.

No, firefighters don't take "Medical School." You don't take pharmacology for being a firefighter. I took Anatomy and Physiology classes, Pharmacology classes, and many others that aren't related to this topic directly, but are related to the medical field.

"Okay I understand that but good parents weather or not they have mental diseases teach their kids to comply with police"

In theory yes. If the police had calmly approached him, that might have gone differently.

But he had d many factors resulting in his panic response, number one: over simulation, lights, multiple strangers approaching him. Number two, they were interfering with his rupturing. Number three, they assumed he was nuerotypical. Number four, they never tried to de-escalate. Number five, autistic people don't like being touched by other people; It makes them panic.

All because they saw a black kid with a ski mask. Caller said he had a gun. He never did. Police did no policing. Just thuggery. Change my mind.

No, because they aren't an organization, they are a movement. They don't know who anyone is. And by the time the violence is instigated, it's too late to capture on phone to see who started it. People unite together to share this message, I would be surprised if someone knew 1% of the protesters at a large gathering like we saw last year.

A crime?

What crime calls for the immediate death of a suspect?

I guess it's "innocent until proven guilty (but only if you're white." huh?

Greene was pulled over for an unspecified traffic violation. (what traffic violation is cause enough for immediate execution?)

He fled because he was afraid of who pulled him over.

They chased him.

Forced him from the road.

Pulled him from his car. (no guns or weapons were found).

Beat him to death.

And then tried to cover it up.

1 up, 4y,
1 reply
Yes. He died of a heart attack. Follow that up with some critical thinking:

- Had the police approached him and actually assessed him, would restraints have been called for? No. He simply kept walking at the pace they found him walking. He didn't speed up, he didn't slow down.

- If no restraint had been used, would there have been a need to use Ketamine on Elijah? No.

- Was there any crime that Elijah committed to warrant being arrested in the first place? No.

- What's worse, is that these officers later went near the memorial site of Elijah McLain and re-enacted the scene, mocking him by repeating the chokehold against eachother, texted the picture to friends captioning "Ha ha."

Do you want continue to defend the indefensible?

"Police were called to someone who looks like they would be an armed robber how do you think they would approach him?"

A fair point to be sure, yet after they checked him, they not once ever sought to de escalate the situation, they did the exact opposite. This was all because he was a poor helpless black kid who died from an over zealous police force, and paranoid white dog who assumed he had a gun simply because he was walking in a totally non suspicious way, not trying to hide himself. He walked for half a mile from the store before police got to him. Dispatch never reported shots fired, never started that he was engaging in dangerous activity. They had to stop in the middle of the street because they almost missed him as he was unassuming.

But by all means keep defending over zealots police who resorted to violence rather than to actually use critical thinking skills, or even observational skills. Don't bother watching that video I sent you.

NYPost is a tabloid. Taking it for "Facts" is a fools errand. I suggest finding new material.

Khan-Cullors said in a prepared statement she has been paid a total of $120,000 from the organization since 2013 for acting as spokesperson and “political education work,” but she has not been paid since 2019.

Khan-Cullors pointed out the myriad jobs she has held. She has two book deals, including authorship of a New York Times best-selling memoir. The Los Angeles Times reported last year that Khan-Cullors signed a production deal with Warner Brothers “to develop scripted dramas and comedies, docuseries and animated programming for children, young adults and families.”

Khan-Cullors also noted that she is a public speaker, owns a gallery, has a deal with YouTube and teaches at a private liberal arts college in Arizona.

The claim that Black Lives Matter co-founder Patrisse Khan-Cullors bought four luxury homes is MISSING CONTEXT, because without additional information it could be misleading. While some social media users suggested that the purchases were evidence that Khan-Cullors had been enriched by the movement, our research revealed no evidence that Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation funds were used to purchase property. Khan-Cullors has held several other jobs in addition to her work as the organization’s volunteer executive director, including writing a memoir and developing content for Warner Brothers.
