    They never come out and stay silence every time one of them commits hate crime.

    It's time to get tough with this same old crooked system...
  • Nothing will change as long as qualified immunity is still in place . Vote 💙

    Weird how they only seem to care when they can try to claim "waycism".....but ignore all the much worse activity in their own community. We aren't buying this crap anymore. The cop was arrested and is being charged like he should be. All these professional victims need to go home.

    Why don't you do that in Chicago? Philadelphia? And other assorted....
  • The question i have is why she threatened the cops in Jesus name with boiling hot water, if you watch the video in slow mo, before she got shot she threw the pot at the officer, and the officers where nice to her before the incident happened

    There are good Law Enforcement Officers that actually: Serve and Protect Good Citizens. I will not allow the actions of One Law Enforcement Officer to turn me against all Law Enforcement Officers. I feel that : The Officer "in the video" should have made sure the Citizen was not in danger , then left the house immediately to avoid confrontation. Please do not use this incident to start the rioting, looting and stealing before the elections.

    The deputy is 100% innocent. He feared for his life.
