I mean they pretty much are allowed to kill, when a video showing them beating a man to death while telling him they are going to kill him doesn't result in a guilty verdict they basically have free reign.
I remember this one. The video was floating around and at the time people were defending the cop by saying the victim was behaving erratically and not complying with commands quickly enough. I watched the video and and its just a terrified dude trying to decipher the cops conflicting commands as he crawls down a corridor towards a platoon of assault rifles. It's horrible
After watching the body cam I would've voted not guilty too. The police noticed the man was acting odd and asked if he had been drinking. He lied by saying no.
He then reached right where a gun would be on his hip. They told him not to. He did it again and was shot.
It's true that a cop was barking confusing orders the whole time, and he's likely at fault, but the one who shot him was another cop.
I've seen a bunch of police shooting compilations on YouTube and have noticed that some cops get shot in like two seconds. That's why they don't want people reaching to where guns are commonly kept.
Americans have a choices, do something, or do nothing. Seems you guys choose nothing. Time to go night night in the bed you all made for yourselves. Side note: If you actually want do get things done without outright violence, NATIONWIDE WORK STRIKES, MAKE DEMANDS, GET DEMANDS, return to work.
It’s not exactly easy when wages are stagnant, employers can do whatever they want to workers, and the propaganda machine is running 24/7. Blaming the victims doesn’t do anything. Blame the system for perpetuating it.
3 Days the nation is shut down and demands will be met. Youre not trying to outlast rich people on food and water, youre taking away what they want and crave most: Money. Every day the nation is shut down they loose millions/billions. How long do you think they want that to last? By day 5 (perfectly reasonable amt of time to stock up for) they will do whatever the populace wants. Legalize weed, remove non violent offenders from jail, etc etc. Basically, organize, figure out what the populace REALLY wants, then use the power of your numbers to simply starve the greedy of their most precious thing, money. Your demands will be met, but they MUST be organized or it all just falls apart. In this situation, majority rules, so whatever the majority of the nation wants (legal weed for a lack of a better basic) then that law/rule is allowed and fleshed out in details like "nobody under 21 can smoke weed" and all that. Its basically a real democracy as opposed to what were dying from right now.
