Y’all really sharing false information that the Texas shooter was trans… the fact y’all so ready to try to make the lgbtq+ community a target, completely unwarranted, is disgusting not even gonna lie.
#JusticeForAmirLocke Officers executed a no knock warrant at 6:00 AM, where Amir Locke was sleeping on the couch. Literally wrapped in a blanket. Amir was murdered within 10 seconds of police entering the apartment. #BlackLivesMatter#NoJusticeNoPeace
Footage of the #RonaldGreene arrest and murder has been released. Louisiana State Troopers lied & said that he died in a car accident. They left out the part where they tortured him to death. If you haven't seen it this is a hard one to watch family. #PostRacialAmerica
We must remember that True justice is George Floyd being able to return home to his daughter. While I am happy with the verdict, and pleased there will be some level of justice, I am also aware that there are so many other names that did not receive the same courtesy.
In two weeks, police in Chicago, Honolulu, and Minneapolis have shot and killed:
Adam Toledo, 13
Travon Chadwell, 18
Anthony Alvarez, 22
Iremamber Sykap, 16
Daunte Wright, 20
All Black and brown boys. Killed by a police state that is irredeemable, let alone capable of reform.
the government has No problem deploying military force against Black Citizens but hesitated when it comes to White terrorists storming the Capitol building.
Capitol Police were told not to use aggressive tactics against Jan. 6 rioters, reports @nytimes. An army official also opposed using the National Guard:
"We don't like the optics."
This week, up to 1,000 National Guard were deployed to MN after police killed #DaunteWright.
The "warrant" on #DaunteWright was over unpaid fines for 2 minor misdemeanors — one a marijuana case — totaling $346. He pled guilty, filed for deferred payment and they were sent to collections DURING A PANDEMIC. Then he was pulled over for car air fresheners and killed over it.
Shortly before the lunch recess, the prosecution played video of what Dr. Tobin believes is final moment of #GeorgeFloyd's life.
"You can see his eyes, he's conscious and then, you see that he isn't...and that's the moment the life goes out of his body." #DerekChauvinTrial
MOMENTS AGO: Dr. Martin Tobin on fentanyl & #GeorgeFloyd cause of death. Tobin says a victim of a fentanyl OD goes into a coma. Prosecutor: Was Mr. Floyd ever in a coma? No." #DerekChauvinTrial
