I think he is referring to cases like Eric Garner or Philandro Castille.
It helps but we all know white people are more than willing to ignore video evidence to protect supremacy.

I wrote on Deadspin that at minimum, it looks like the accidents you see when the elderly person thinks they are about to hit the brakes, but slam down on the accelerator and crash through a store.

“Video footage is turning out to be a real help for African Americans in this country, whose word is rarely taken as truth.”- uh REALLY????

I was legit excited when I saw the headline just now. Well, by excited I mean there were people out here calling Venus a murderer blah blah you remember. And the whole situation seemed odd to me so to have that doubt supported was a relief.

Glad the video evidence showed up. From every description of the crash the only way it made sense was if Barson’s car was traveling at speed when it entered the intersection, and that’s exactly what happened. The crash was caused by Barson anticipating the light changing and not braking at all as she blew through.…

Also,

Fellow big girl here. If I can’t wear a bra, I won’t wear it. Every time I see a plus size off or no shoulder shirt, my boobs hurt. What if there’s a situation where I have to run from danger? My boobs would be flying everywhere and may hurt a child or small man.

the best part about the highwaisted jean trend is a reprieve from seeing everyone’s goddamned whale tail

Preach. I’m not sitting down and having my waistband hit my (rather small) tits EVER AGAIN!

At least the young, thin, flat-chested demo is getting plenty of flattering options. WON’T SOMEONE THINK OF THE THIN GIRLS??

As another plus size girl, this is my life.

THIS!
Last week I was at my kids elementary school waiting for them and in the office hallway are all the class photos from the entire history of the school - it was built at in the early 1900's so these are A LOT of photos! I went to that school. In the 80's.

Same way we got suckered into wearing asscrack hiphugger plumber’s jeans again - - history repeats itself +people never learn.

what the ever loving fuck? I wear a cardi when I’m chilly. Why would I want the shoulders cut out?

I reject a reality where crimping is back. NO.

This!!!! EVERY TIME I’ve tried to shop in stores or online lately, I am inundated by these fucking off the shoulder garments, and I’m shopping at PLUS SIZE RETAILERS. Like, whoooo theeee fuck in a 22/24 or 3X is going to look cute in some shit that requires an invisible bra? My titties are 42DDD. I need straps, y’all.…

That’ll make a comeback, too, since The Kids are crimping again, I hear. Go ahead and fry your hair, whippersnappers.

One of the very few fun parts about being old is watching the Youts wear all the stupid shit you once thought was cool. The 80s were stupid, and you shouldn’t copy us, kids. Learn from Steph’s Aqua Net Black Lung.

...and how did we get suckered into having mom jeans again? HOW?! Has history taught us nothing?
