That’s not fair. Fox News is also abusive.
TL/DR: Fox News is a hypocritical, lying piece of shit, and Bill O’Reilly is a hypocritical, lying, abusive piece of shit.
Think she would have done that with a white guy?
She thought he was a car thief why, now? Because he’s black and has no right to a car of his own?
“An investigation by the Evanston Police Department found the use of force justified, but the department has made changes to prevent police takedowns of subjects during an arrest.”
So, all it takes is an anonymous tip to get the cops to take action on whatever claim you make? Can I call 911 and report a crazed middle age man with a red toupee has broken into the white house?
The cops followed the rules...but they are now changing the rules...WTF?
Not shitty training, finely honed racism.
“An investigation by the Evanston Police Department found the use of force justified...” In other words, the police investigated themselves and found out they did nothing wrong. The fact that the victim had his own dashcam may have saved his life and his public record. I’m posting this video on my FB as we speak so my…
I mean, yeah. It might take some time to get up to the level of insanity that the Russian videos have, but I believe in American Exceptionalism.
The cops press the false charges to protect themselves. It also fits the general narrative that the victim is complicit in his own harm.
Here’s what always gets me. Once the cops find out it’s his own car and that he really wasn’t resisting (but of course they’ll say he was), why would they continue to press charges? That’s such troll behavior.
Evanston is no small town. It directly borders Chicago, is the home to Northwestern, and has a sizeable minority population. It’s also very polar city- most of the minority population is very poor and the white population is fairly wealthy. So, the cops tend to treat brown people as criminals and white people as…
The cops are assholes for sure, but a lot of blame needs to be put on Blake Murphy too. She says she didn’t mean for any of this to happen and that she didn’t mean to racially profile Mr. Crosby. And then to follow the car and the police to the scene of the incident WTF was she thinking would happen?!
Fuck. The guy pulls over immediately raises his hands and 6 guys jump all over him. Shitty small town cops with shitty training let adrenaline take over.
I think it would be a good idea for all African American to have dash-cams, and maybe interior cams too, in their cars that upload to the Cloud constantly.
Dashcams are important.* If you can get one that can link to a cellphone for upload to the cloud, even better.
Get off the couch, tie your shoes.
Apparently, “did you or your staff collude with Russia to undermine our electoral process” was not a question that warranted follow-up when he decided not to answer. Way to go, media.
