  1. The world watches shaking our heads at blatant disregard for human lives, shameful shameful shameful

    1. @Ash Roskell so in America is all about shooting, shooting, shooting and shooting….where are your brains and mouths. Did you leave them somewhere….

    2. @Zaynab bint Al-Harith England does not jail people for saying mean things. Great Britain does. And not for saying mean things but people are arrested and charged, and prosecuted for making statements designed to increase hate between individuals or groups of individuals. This situation is better than, for instance having communities becoming increasingly violent towards each other. Sort of being better, doing better. My main issue is with your use of England, we are ( still maybe ) a United Kingdom., so I presume those statements are made with an extensive personal experience of the nations mentioned by yourself.

    3. Look at the border! Democrats don’t care about anything but themselves! Selfish hateful immature people.

    4. @andy young
      This statement ” I disagree with Sahih Bukhari 5134″ could send me to prison.

      But it’s funny how the application to “increasing hate” is focused on one group and not others.

      For instance, the statement “I support Surah 9:29 and everything else inside that book”, they give you a PhD

    5. @Ash Roskell though I agree, it isn’t about one case, it is the fact a white guy can walk near a school armed with to the teeth and nothing happens, while a black guy on a traffic stop gets shot,

  2. It’s heartbreaking. I will keep marching because its all I can do, but I will be there to stand beside you, and if a cop pulls a gun with no need, it won’t be you my friend, it will be me. I will stand in front, knowing you have my back.

    1. @BidenHarris: MAD Magazine’s Person Of The Year Stop looking for attention cause your mom doesn’t love you. Noone here cares about you either. Kick rocks loser.

    2. @BidenHarris: MAD Magazine’s Person Of The Year so you think it’s OK to sexualize someone for the sake of arguing? You realize it’s not ok to treat people, no matter their color, that way.

    3. @Cosmo Flow I take it that you woudn’t take a bullet for me like the OP would

    4. @Kristin Johnson Well if you’re going to put words in my mouth, I’m inclined to forget the whole thing!

  3. All out assault on black Americans in this country. Point blank.. keep your family close and protect yourselves

    1. @DreToo Dope Tony Timpa. Go ahead look for yourself. It was worse than Saint Floyd, but his family didn’t get 27 mil, and the cops didn’t get charged…

    2. @Polar Opposite I literally teach anti racism in schools. Try again with your gas lighting bigotry.

    3. @Cosmo Flow if you are truly a teacher then you would know these numbers are accurate. A simple punch of a few keys and you can fact check them yourself and yet you call them BS. You are the exact kind of teacher we do not need. One who spreads agenda and not facts or truth.

  4. There are still thousands of Chauvins in police departments across America. Some of them are police chiefs. Some of the Chauvins are mayors and governots. There is much work needed to Make America Just – for the very first time.

    1. @Greg Orchard Maybe not but he had plenty of complaints against him for police brutality so it was probably only a matter of time.

  5. I once saw a documentary about policing called “Police Academy” where a police officer made machine gun and helicopter sound effects with his mouth to deescalate a riot. But cops just want to be gun-happy like Tackleberry these days. They need to go get a drink down at the Blue Oyster and chill the f out

    1. That will b like them falling right into a trap. Do you think they are that slow? They will pretend to get it together and conspire against the community while bling siding the original ostrich group.

    2. Yep, the cult can only ever respond one way to being disciplined in any way, and that is to escalate the behaviour that got them into trouble in the first place. The Mobster Lobster will be loving the fact that these black kids are being hunted…

    3. @Euphorics Global You give them too much credit! They aren’t that smart. Your slang is like you’re real close to those people. Well, white folks mainly are anyway so..

    4. @Tasty Bait That will only help if the police turn against the elite then we’re in civil war.. The military can easily disarm the police though.

  6. It’s abhorrent, when will the US citizens swear off from violence and not condone and worship it anymore?

  7. I’m no longer waiting for the stimulus check because I earn $24,230 every 14-16 days recently got myself a new ride

    1. I meet Mr David for the first time at a conference in manchester I invested £25,000 and traded in one month making close to £143,670

    2. I’m from UK I and my colleague gave him a try and it has been a good returns of our investment, thanks Expert David

    3. Seeing Alot of success stories, he must be honest and trustworthy for people to talk this good about him

    4. Two words: Bernie Madoff! Be careful who you invest with. If its too good to be true its probably is.

    1. Because they felt they did nothing wrong. Bet the girl who was being attacked was glad to see the police. I wouldn’t say that this killing was necessary, but I will not be protesting for the knife weilder. Black people need to stop hurting one another.

    1. Its not just the polices fault it goes much bigger. This can not be put just on the police. Its the community, the people, the police the system. When america stops putting the fous on one area and looks at what’s really going on then you can start to fix everything.

  8. call me an idealist, but there should be minor threats that can be handled by the police w/o involving a firearm
