Also don’t be black, and don’t be seen by the police, don’t play with toys or eat candy. it is very easy to admonish to “Stay in school” and “don’t hang out with criminals” How nice it it to have the privilege to think these things will stop you being shot by the police simply for having the wrong skin color.
Actually, cops walking the beat and meeting the people IS the best move to saving ALL lives that matter. Isolation in their cars, and increasing emphasis on armored vehicles and high capacity firearms for police during the “Bush push”, and other right-wing plans, are responsible for much of the danger, and damage to police agencies reputations, and practices.
The funny thing is the MAJORITY of the cops aren’t shooting black people….the majority of the black people are being shot by black people. The latter never makes the news. It’s more sensational to expoes the cops
In fact, what you have described is the militarization of the police that both Obama and Clinton have opposed.-I don’t recall them really opposing them. I mean as in actively stopping it. Obama did do something about in his last year. Trying to shine up the things he let fester.
The biracial shootings on the news have all the markings of false flags. It’s not like the media covers black-on-black or white-on-white crime, even though both are more common, because they don’t further the media’s narrative.

Well, stay in school, don’t hang out with criminals, and don’t engage in criminal activity, and you’re well on your way…..
