When, Oh When, Will You White People Put an End to This Shit?!

Suspect being arrested for alleged forgery:

Watch the video!!!!

Where’s the resistance?

Where’s the threat of bodily harm?

The video is 10 minutes long.

(Apparently, I can only post the link because of the graphic nature of the content….More white folks cowardice and denial if you ask me…)

Is it difficult to watch an unarmed  person being murdered for that length of time?

Consider having to live with the apprehension and fear of this kind of treatment at the hands of people whose job is supposed to be “to protect and serve” for a lifetime which , in my case, is 73 years thus far…

Here’s the reaction of the Minneapolis mayor:

If this behavior is not an element of police training or acceptable professional comportment then, who ordered the ‘code red’?

The four cops involved in this incident, including the perpetrator, were immediately and summarily dismissed from the Minneapolis Police Department.

Quelle Surprise!

Big deal…

Let’s see how long it takes for arrests and indictments…

Let’s see how they fare in the hands of the prosecutorial authorities and the criminal justice system….

I repeat:

“If social justice is to be achieved it won’t be because black and brown people persuaded or convinced conflicted and ambivalent white people of anything at all.

It will be because white people make the case to reluctant and recalcitrant white folks that a just society and more perfect union isn’t about bestowing the benefits of freedom on black and brown people at the expense of white people, it’s about “liberty and justice for all”.
