So when millions of us have seen with our own eyes the execution of unarmed black men, can someone explain how any policeman still feels permitted to do dastardly deeds like what was done to Jacob Blake tonight? (And don’t dare anyone say that we don’t have all the facts yet)

I also don't want to hear any statement that starts with what Jacob "should have" done.

Another "innocent victim" pulling out a gun on police while being arrested gets shot.

Someone tricked me into watching the video repeatedly to try and spot the gun the cops are yelling at him to drop as he walks around the front of the vehicle. Who brings a gun to a girl fight? The video is inconclusive. A gun would have spatters. Only forensics could prove it.

Execution??? The guy is alive. It was this mans actions that has him in this situation.
Replying to @marwilliamson
I can't believe it's legal. I'd shut them down. Defund the police. Absolutely.

Marianne preach love and peace don't encourage this madness!

Why don't we try an experiment? Give social workers one week to replace police day and night in cities with protests and see if America is peaceful and normal life is restored?
Replying to @marwilliamson
We don’t have all the facts. Dude could have been reaching for a gun

You feel ok having the man being arrested forcibly reach in his car? How do you know he’s not getting a gun? It’s convenient to write this fm the comforts of your home instead of facing the harsh realities of arresting an uncooperative, sometimes violent criminal.
Replying to @marwilliamson
It pleases me to see that you have withheld making a rush to judgement before all of the facts are in.
