Police always release videos of them killing black people on Fridays, because that’s when the least people will see them.

In the PR profession, this is called “throwing it out with the trash.”

Every thing about Ta'Kiya Young's death is an example of why we must rethink law enforcement and public safety. The American system isn't broken, it's working as intended and that intention always was to protect property of the wealthy and to control, through terror, Black people.

Remember the stupid Titan sub? It imploded because it wasn't a sphere. There were no fixes that would have saved it. It was a bad design. Same here.

Reasonable force? This is murder, pure and simple. How could anyone possibly do this? Judging by the existing level of gun violence I doubt it’s even big news in America, but if more riots ensue it definitely wouldn’t suprise me.

I just saw the video of the trigger happy cop who killed and her unborn child. It's so wrong on so many levels, and even though he did everything wrong, appears his actions are being mitigated because she drove forward at 2mph toward him. If he can get away with a "fear of his life" defence. America is more insane than even I thought it was.
