As I watched that all too often tragedies play out in Philadelphia. I was wondering if those guys in blue who were bum rushing those three black guys pulling them out of the car and kicking, hitting and just wantonly beating them were the gang called the crips or that other gang in blue the cops. This is becoming more common than any of us in the black community should be comfortable with. We need to start fixing THIS gang violence which is permeating the black neighborhoods.
With this new beating of course come the stupid comments from those in the dominant community and those fools that love them. It never fails that as soon as a blatantly obvious and grievous wrong is committed on someone from the black race you get a plethora of fools out here who will agree upon one thought; that no matter how wild or out of control the cops that kill or maim that it is somehow the blacks fault.
As I watched the video a lot of people started commenting and here is a few of the things that I read. “this is why we should give our cops RPG’s, just blow the car up and do us all a favor and save us the money of putting them though a trial.. lol” “If they are being pursued by the police, they HOW ARE THEY INNOCENT?!?!?!” “good…fuck those ignorant ass black boys…who cares….they deserve it for what they did…and the others that got away deserve what is coming to them…always gotta ruin this country….” It is a simple matter of support, which was a big theme over at the Brotherpeacemaker recently.
Those ignorant freak’s know damn well that these cops are as guilty as sin. So if blacks can be beaten within inches of their lives then why is that we should care when someone takes that attitude and blows one of their members to the after life? They claim that they were under so much stress due to the fact that a cop had recently been shot. Well maybe the person who shot the cop was under so much stress due to the outrageous number of blacks being beaten, shot, killed and maimed by the cops.
Even if these were the guys who killed the cop, does that now mean that they do not deserve a fair trial to render a verdict as to whether they are guilty or innocent? Is it now up to the cops to not only arrest but then decide upon innocence and then render justice as he or she sees fit? Somehow I am supposed to care when a cop is killed or somehow maligned yet not care when a person of the black race is killed or maligned. I am sorry but that cops life is in no way worth any more or any less than the life of any black person that they decide to dole their brand of justice on.
This is NOT the wild, wild, west where you were able to pull out your “six shooter” and blast a person away if they wronged you or another person. It is interesting that people are fine with this behavior when it is aimed at blacks yet find it deplorable when it is aimed at whites. Just look at the comments when the cops were harassing (not abusing) Brett Darrow, 20 of Missouri. In case you don’t know the case a cop was threatening to arrest Darrow and invent charges in order to do so.
“This cop should spend years in prison for his systematic abuse of power.” “There should be studies done in regard to the sick minds of police.” “He should be fired AND prosecuted.” People had a lot of terrible things to say about the police in “this” situation. But when the situation involves a black person somehow now everyone has so much respect and adoration of the cops or they feel it necessary to talk of how the cops are under so much stress and how difficult their jobs are.
Well wasn’t this cop under so much stress as well, or are cops who deal with blacks the only ones under so much stress? These are the blatant disparities that I am constantly being told don’t exist. People in the black community need to wake up and start realizing that these cops are playing the same role as the lynch mobs of old.
