Thread2/2
A White male police ofc wearing bullet-proof vest, w/ handgun, taser, pepper spray, & a baton, saying that "feared for his life" of an UNARMED Black man, that was running away??? So #ChristopherSchurr, shot #PatrickLyoya in the back of the head. Police shooting at someone running away is agst law w/ SCOTUS, Tennessee v. Garner. Also, cops are not judge, jury & executioner. Lyoya shld be alive to face charges in a court. Ofc Schurr always had the upper hand & did NOT fear for his life.

Thread 1/2
Attorneys for #PatrickLyoya say there is no evidence that a former #GrandRapids police officer, #ChristopherSchurr, feared for his life before fatally shooting Lyoya a year ago.

Today was the funeral of #TyreNichols. His parents asked for the passing of the #GeorgeFloyd Justice in Policing Act. If #BlackAllies, feel helpless, you can write your representative and urge for its passing. Michiganders: there was a bundle of 12 bipartisan bill introduced in the state senate after #PatrickLyoya. https://bit.ly/3HnVNRv Our Black lawmakers are going to reintroduce those bills https://bit.ly/3DyqYsc. Let your state representative know you support their passage. #BlackMastodon

“Justice is not the prosecution of a singular perpetrator of terror—it is the wholesale indictment of a racist society that naturalizes anti-Black violence as a way of life.”

Police shoot another black man at a Meijer grocery store in Lansing, MI. DeAnthony VanAtten was there to buy food for a cookout with his girlfriend and infant in the car when he was shot several times. Thankfully, he survived. This is in the wake of the police execution of Patrick Lyoya an hour away in Grand Rapids, MI.

.@dananessel @MIAttyGen when are the murder charges coming? #patricklyoya was not a threat and was trying to comply with Schurr's commands when he was assaulted and brutally murdered in broad daylight.

I’m won’t be sharing the video of #PatrickLyoya being shot in the BACK of the head by a Grand Rapids cop while he was on the ground facing away from the cop after a routine traffic stop. But I will share this photo of him. He was a 26yr old Congolese refugee who deserved better https://t.co/saVk0JSuoG

Three shots to the back of the head while face down on the ground is the word. No bodycam yet.
