A police officer in Minnesota fatally shot a young man pulled over for a traffic violation in the city of Brooklyn Center, near where a police officer is on trial in the death of George Floyd. nyti.ms/3d7NYRW

Someone need to tell people in high positions to stop reacting out of emotion without details and without statistics.

They don't care, Marianne. They're too busy trying to save a collapsing capitalist system, which will require more police brutality to keep us in line anyway.

While i fully agree the constant killing of (black) people by a police that uses way too much violence is an incredibly important issue, its a bit disingenuous to phrase it like this because as far as we know there was a warrant for his arrest and he led them on a chase.

It’s an obvious campaign to normalize it, and that’s just one “prong,” so to speak. Another is to dance. What, you say? Go take a look at the BLM co-founder. It all adds up to nausea.

I am heart sick. We all need to pray for change.

Tell me the data without emotions. You think it’s a high number because media manipulate emotions for their profit. Of course any unjustified death is too much, but it’s not just one race, and it’s a relatively small number vs population.

@marwilliamson, we’re policed by officers WHO DO NOT LIVE IN OR KNOW citizens in the communities where they serve as law enforcement, have NO EXPERIENCE IN DEALING WITH YOUNG BLACK MALES, and DON’T RECEIVE ENOUGH TRAINING IN THE PROPER USE OF LETHAL FORCE.
