. . . well, we don't know if they are necessarily innocent, generally, they should have had a trial, shouldn't they? I guess we will never know if they were all innocent now, will we, they's all dead now. Dead folks tell no tales.
The point is, police harassment, police brutality, and violence are more of a threat. . . so far, especially if you happen to be poor, or a minority, than this virus is.
I'm just letting folks know what the facts is.
175 People Have Been Shot and Killed by Police in 2020
yes-----statistically more. Injury and/or death of a policeman is also more
of a threat in poor and minority neighborhoods. Death or injury to ANYONE
living in or walking thru a poor or minority neighborhood is also more of a
threat. A personal anecdote : While a working woman (ie younger) I used
to take a train to my job in an inner city hospital. I walked from the train
station to the hospital where a few times per month my work included
determining "brain death" in persons afflicted with "acute lead poisoning of
the brain" <<< that means a bullet in the head. There was an ONGOING
RECORD MURDER rate there.. One day----I asked a cop "there are so
many murders in that area----why no cops? I walk down _ _ _ __ avenue
every day and never see a cop."" The cop said "you walk down _ _ _ _
avenue ????? I WOULDN'T DRIVE A SQUAD CAR ON THAT STREET!!!!! "
I can't say a blamed him. ALSO---please be aware----bullets have a
nasty habit of hitting bystanders and they also RICOCHET
It has been ruled in the Supreme Court that police are not there to protect the public. They are there to enforce the laws of the elites, and collect revenue for the STATE.
The only role of police, is to make sure the BOOT of authority is firmly pressed down upon the poor, to make sure they get their asses to work, and get their taxes and fees paid to the elites and ruling class.
That is why it is called a POLICE STATE. It does the rulers no good if trained police get themselves killed or harmed in the process. This is also why they do not allow folks with above average IQ's to become enforcers of law, because they might actually question the morality and ethical appropriateness of some laws.
That, is never their role.
Many laws have, since their passage, been borne out to be corrupt and evil, and have since been repealed. However, at the time they were in effect, it was the job of lemming LEO's to carry them out.
This is why it is not safe for the poor or minorities to use 911.
. . . so I don't really want to hear about your propaganda. It is demonstrably false. It is based only on your perceptions.
Police have no duty to protect the poor, only to repress, oppress and unequally lock them up. The law is a rich man's game.
The reason poor neighborhoods are more violent, is because justice must be meted out by those who would see it done, not by the STATE. There is no monetary value in seeing justice done in the neighborhoods of the poor.
