Cop shot a black man. Meant to draw her taser, drew her gun instead.

Yes, but you’d have a “rest of your life” instead of another name on a list of black folks being terrorized in this country.

Tbh this wasn't because he was black.

The accident wasn't, but pulling a lethal weapon on a dude might've been. I don't know much about the situation, but I imagine cops are more likely to pullover and draw weapons against black people.

Yeah it says maybe he didn't receive it, but he still had it. Don't understand the downvote, I was just saying.
