I should be asleep, but I’m going to rant instead.
When a black persons murders someone in cold blood, if they are identified and caught, they are charged, arrested usually indicted, brought to trial, and usually found guilty.
And that’s what we’re asking for when a police officer commits murder: that same process, using the same standards. Ordinary equality before the law. Justice.
I can not fathom why that is so goddamned difficult for right-wingers to comprehend.
Blacks don't kill blacks because they're black. Whites don't kill whites because they're white. Blacks don't kill whites because they're white. Whites kill blacks because they're black. Read that again.
Animals kill other animals to eat, to protect territory, for breeding rights. They don't kill just to kill. Humans kill humans just because they can...but humans are the more evolved???? The more I know people the more I like animals.
I am well aware that some animals kill and engage in behaviors for their enjoyment...not every behavior is purely for survival. House cats kill for sport. Dolphins have sex for pleasure and have homosexual encounters for the same reasons.
There are exceptions to every rule, and I am fully aware of them. Just as I'm sure somewhere in the world a black person has killed a white person because they were white...this is a generalization to cover the rule, rather than the exceptions, and I hope the point is received rather than it being missed to point out the exceptions that I went ahead and acknowledged will exist if you look for them.
