about three times as many whites are killed by cops each yr.
Any of them die on video from a knee on the neck?
probably not newsworthy.
Good point. Just because we don’t hear about it, doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen.
The biggest difference is that those killed aren't seen as "good boys who were just getting their lives turned around". They are seen as the schittheads that they are, and their early demise is a positive for society.
That's said, when it's time to kick ass, kick ass hard and make'em bleed if necessary. Once the cuffs are on, you are now responsible for their well-being.
The value of a black life is directly tied to the extent it’s loss can be politically exploited.
That pretty much sums it up right there.
