La calma è la virtù dei forti

We learned that a giant mass protest that shuts down large streets of major cities will be met with cops on their best behavior if the protests are made up of “regular” white people. We are shown that most news organizations reported favorably and used positive rhetoric (for the most part) and nice photos of families protesting together. It was viewed in a very kind light, which is the opposite of what most major (BLM for example) protests get. 

A Seattle police officer who fatally shot a pregnant mother of four told detectives he considered giving up his stun gun for months.

When the battery for Officer Jason Anderson’s Taser finally died about two weeks before his deadly encounter with Charleena Lyles, he stashed the busted tool inside his locker and failed to have the battery replaced, according to transcripts through the Seattle Police Department’s Force Investigation Team on Friday.

Needless to say that if he had this stun gun with him that day, Chaleena could be alive today. Her kids would have to watch their mother die and her unborn baby could eventually see this world. She called the police for help, yet eneded up shot by two police officers, who decided not to take a taser with them because “ it took up too much ‘real estate’ ”.And they will never pay for her senseless death.
