Zone1 Tony Timpa: Say His Name!

And you are ignoring the stats. There is NO way that police dealing with 50 million people, many thugs and druggies, can not have a dozen or so of these instances. Do you demand the same of medical professionals? There are a LOT more mistakes in hospitals that cost people their lives.
You can sue doctors, doctors lose their license to practice everyday, but cops murder folks the taxpayer pays for it and the cops goes on doing what he is doing.

I guess I'm failing to see how it is you not knowing that you need to look at results per capita makes a mockery of me. Are you suggesting ignorance is bliss?
 
What is amazing is that an entire country was subjected to violence and arson for months on end because a black ex-felon high on drugs had his neck kneeled on until he was dead, and yet when the SAME thing happened to a white man, with no criminal record, this thread garnered just 11 replies - and 99% of the country never even heard of this case.

We need to stop valuing black lives over white lives.
This has to be one of the dumbest post of all time. Black folks in the history of this country have NEVER been given the amount of Justice that white folks have.

We are not talking about history. We are talking about NOW, and the unequal application of justice. If a white kills one black, his trial is televised to make him suffer further. If a black mows down a parade of whites, killing half a dozen, nobody even can recall his name.

Super lame mutha always leaves out facts, don't he?

I am talking about now and what you are saying is garbage.

For one the black person is going to be arrested that day, where the white person will go home and eat dinner with the family that night and might be arrested and charged 2 or 3 months later.

Your argument is trash if you think the Justice System works for black folks over white folks, it was created to work for you.

Hey super lame mutha, when I worked in prison why were there so many whites locked up?
 
How many have heard of this man?

He was killed by police in the same manner that George Floyd was, with police kneeling on his neck (for 14 minutes). Where was his state funeral? Where are the moments of silence for him? Where is the statue in his honor? Why wasn’t the trial of the police covered, if there indeed was a trial?

Oh right. He wasn’t a black thug, high on drugs. He was a white, college-educated man suffering from schizophrenia.

It‘s time for our country to value the lives of whites as much as blacks. This case is a blatant example as to how more is made of a black being killed than a white, even when the white is a more responsible person.

so that torture is bad? Where is your buddy Protectionist to claim there is no law against that?

Where were white lives matter? Huh? Whites just let this man die and did nothing about it. Stop crying, because white lives have always mattered the most. So where was the outrage from the white community? Maybe if people like you spent less time lying to yourself about black favoritism or black crime and paid more attention to your community you would not be here whining about a police murder that happened 7 years ago.

And how do you know the white man was more responsible? Did your bias tell you?

So take some of that responsibility those like you bark about all the time. Stop supporting and excusing police killings.
 
So you’re saying blacks should be outraged only when there’s wrongdoing against blacks, and whites should care only when it’s about a white?

As far as protests by whites - or anyone - nobody ever heard of it. The Floyd case was national news. So why was it a nothingburger burger when it happened to a white?
No, but whites do have a responsibility to speak out for their community and it doesn't look like it was done here.
 
Yes, but why was there national outrage, for months on end, with BLM instigating massive violence and property destruction and assaults and arson, in dozens of cities, for months on end, when a black man with a criminal record was the victim - and there wasn’t even a peep when a white, college-educated victim with no record suffered the same fate? Nobody even heard of the white guy, but statues were erected to George Floyd and a his funeral was that usually reserved for a head of state.

Clearly, a white college graduate isn’t seen as worthy of life as a black thug.
Where were the white protesters Lisa? They could show up to Ferguson and other places with all lives matter signs, so where were they when this white dude was killed?

The entire country was not subjected to jack squat except white extremists starting violence and blacks getting blamed for it by nitwits such as you.

The man waa killed years before Geprge Floyd and whites like you were too busy making excuses defending police killing of blacks to do anything. There was no white Amaud Arbery or Brionna Taylor, before this killing either.

On July 17, 2016, Annalisa Merelli wrote an article on the quartz.com website titled, “More black people were killed by US police in 2015 than were lynched in the worst year of Jim Crow.” The title speaks for itself. Take a look at some of the facts she presents:

According to the historic record “Lynchings, white and negroes” kept by Alabama’s Tuskegee University, a total of 2,911 black Americans were lynched between 1890 and 1965, when the so-called Jim Crow laws were enforced. Beginning in the 1890s, these racist laws segregated black Americans in several states until about 1965. During this time, black Americans were often victims of unspeakable violence, and infamous extrajudicial lynchings.”

“On an average, 39 black people were lynched per year under Jim Crow. In 1892, the worst year, 161 black Americans were lynched.”

“More than a century later, the numbers have hardly improved. In 2015, 258 black people were killed by US police, representing over 26% of deaths.”

“For 2016, the trend seems similar. As of July 7, US police have shot dead 509 people this year, of whom 123 were black.”

“Even counting only the deaths of black people who were unarmed, the results are staggering. A conservative count puts that death toll at 38, right in line with the average during Jim Crow.”


This was not happening to whites. So before you start crying your sad sorry "woe is me, I'm white" stuff, go look at some facts.

This has nothing to do with this country valuing black lives over whites. This is about white racism so deep that some whites don't pay attention to the problems in their own community just to try getting the most draconian policies possible enacted against communities of colot.
