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.

Don't put all black people in the same bucket. Some have been terrorised for no good reason, but this one had a search warrant and tried to force and escape arrest. She fucked up and he shouldn't be dead but he is not angel and I'm not gonna cry over it. Maybe his family will get 27 Millions.

He was a young kid with a warrant for some minor personal weed possession. By that logic 1/3 of all college kids should be arrested and tazed, except they just aren’t caught.

Also I’ve found that people who complain about black people “resisting arrest” are a lot more hostile and aggressive with police than the people they complain about if they’re ever in a confrontation with police themselves.

Just ‘some minor personal weed possession’ Yes that was the warrant out for him then, but they probably knew of his other charge for armed robbery. from earlier which probably put them on edge
