““We were all in shock,” Sanders said, KHOU reports. “Why would a cop shoot somebody?””

“Why would a cop shoot somebody?”

Let’s all say it now together:

The police are not your friends. Now watch the most dangerous gang in America close ranks, say nothing bad about the murderer and smear the innocent man they murdered.

“RIP my brother. But come on, you can’t deny the experiences of millions based on your personal experiences.”

Man that’s jacked. But I don’t get the minds of black folks like this. Having multiple kinds of friends from different backgrounds shouldn’t make you turn a blind eye to racism whether you experienced it or claimed you have not. That’s just blatant disregard for history and our present struggle.

I can say I haven’t had a bad experience with police, But that does not make them make them all good either, not above being called out and being aware that my experiences don’t negate what has continually happened to other black people and minorities. Maybe he realized that when he was laying there shot. 

RIP my brother. But come on, you can’t deny the experiences of millions based on your personal experiences. “Well they never did anything to ME.” is the most short-sighted, closed-off foolishness.  When people tell you the stove is hot, believe them.

You live by foolishness (in support of the police corruption and bias), you die by the foolishness (by police corruption and bias).

I’m sorry he died, but hardly surprised... No good deed goes unpunished in this world, ESPECIALLY if you are black.

You never mattered to them. To them you were just big, black and scary.

The brother was trying to do the right thing and got tasered and shot for his trouble. That’s fucked up.

Notorious RBG said honor my last wishes, do not fill this seat until after the election. You see what happens when you ignore the wishes of the dead. Like in The Color Purple,

That John Wick quote is why I keep coming back to The Root. Because damn.

“I want to see that nigga at his trial trying to pull a Bill Cosby pretending he’s to sick”

Black lung isn’t a disease you catch. And honestly I’m surprised the guy actually spent enough time down in the mines to get it.

One of my sports-adjacent mutals RT’d some white-supremacist dickweasel trying to tell people how terrible we all are for hoping Trump eats it...

I’m not happy he is sick. I wouldn’t wish this shit on anyone.

I was getting ready to drag Mr. Young. Crisis averted.

To quote one of my favorite fake boxers:

My conscience doesn’t bother me...
