HI Secret ,

I've just read through the last link that you posted re this story and this stick's out like a sore thumb.

''Amadou Diallo was unarmed, doing nothing wrong, and he was minding his own business,'' Mr. Warner said. ''In the mindset they had, that man was doomed from the minute they saw him.''

Is this the norm these days .? Has nothing been learned from these senseless killings and maiming of people.dunno

pedro27: Two questions for you.

Not being bad but what if it was a white person shot?

Would there be big media and news reports?

People shot to death by U.S. police, by race 2017-2020

Published by Statista Research Department, Aug 6, 2020

Sadly, the trend of fatal police shootings in the United States seems to only be increasing, with a total 558 civilians having been shot, 111 of whom were Black, as of July 29, 2020. In 2018, there were 996 fatal police shootings, and in 2019 this figure increased to 1,004. Additionally, the rate of fatal police shootings among Black Americans was much higher than that for any other ethnicity, standing at 31 fatal shootings per million of the population as of July 2020.

germanspitz: For me personally this isn't about colour ,it's about control in the hands of irresponsible people. I 've just read Secret's post and again it's appalling that a life was snuffed out for no good reason other than "we thought" when actually they didn't think at all.
GS, I respect your opinions, but it's always about color, and they like it that way...

I didn't watch it, I have my own view from what I've seen up to date.

IMO some blacks like to play the race card ''too much'' and are very senetive about it

You asked a question about whites getting killed by police.

Jacob Blake wasn't playing a race card when he got shot in the back Pedro he was attempting to return to his 3 kids waiting for him in his car.. Look at the statistics I posted . It's not about colour it's about statistics and the results are not good.

Thanks Mikey I do try to look at things from every angle but in this instance some in the U.S. Police Force are becoming trigger happy. I've just posted the latest statistics which speaks volumes.handshake

jac_the_gripper: That's a horrific story, Mikey.

Am I right in thinking the trial was 12 years ago?

How is this related to the windows and planters being broken during the recent protest in Knoxville following George Floyd's murder?

How is it related to the shooting of Jacob Blake by police officers?
I could be wrong but I think murder ties it all together same way lynching is tied in. For instance the city of new orleans finally apologized for the lynching of 11 italian-americans in 1891.

He's black so yes I guess you are according to your past posts.

It's not about black or white in my humble opinion it's about unnecessary police brutality .

I agree somewhat. I believe the reaction is unmistaningly about black and white though. wave

How do you think some black people come to be sensitive about their skin colour, or racial prejudice, Pedro?
