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)

If you have all the facts then please list them for me. Because, I’m sorry, I don’t.

Was he reaching for a gun in his car?

We don’t know all the facts yet. If you’re going to be a leader Marianne, start by responding instead of reacting. It’s proper to carefully investigate and uncover the whole truth. Tweets like yours are inflammatory are could even incite more violence.

They are trying to normalize murder.
Replying to @marwilliamson
They feel the system will protect them (and it usually does).

It all boils down to training, or lack there of. American police force is notoriously incompetent relative to other industrialized nations. There is a reason police shootings in America far exceeds all other western nations combined.

So if there was a gun inside the car the police are supposed to what? Let him grab it and start shooting first?
