One Of The Last Real Ones To Do It
This entire year has been full of white people not being held accountable by the law.
The only notable person in jail is Diddy and if he was white I bet he would be on bail.

Chat GPT Synopsis
The Hilltop Shootout on September 23, 1989, in Tacoma, Washington, occurred in the Hilltop neighborhood, a predominantly Black, low-income area that faced economic struggles and was associated with gang activity at the time. The incident involved Army Ranger Bill Foulk and 12 of his fellow Rangers, who armed themselves and took defensive positions at Foulk’s house. Foulk had been recording individuals in the neighborhood, claiming he was documenting gang activity, though it remains unclear if those he filmed were involved in any illegal actions. The alleged gang members were never identified or confirmed, and much of the justification for Foulk’s actions was based on unverified assumptions. These tensions came to a head when Foulk invited his armed friends to his home for a barbecue, instructing them to come armed due to his belief that retaliation was imminent. That same day, a shootout occurred, with the Rangers claiming they were attacked by gang members who fired first. Over 300 rounds were exchanged in the conflict, though no one was killed.
The Rangers reported taking defensive positions and using military tactics to protect themselves, but the circumstances raised significant questions. The fact that Foulk had told his friends to bring weapons and prepare for conflict, coupled with their tactical readiness, suggested the Rangers anticipated or even provoked violence. Critics argue the “miraculous” timing of the attack on the very day the Rangers were heavily armed undermines their claims of acting purely in self-defense.
The socioeconomic context of Hilltop also played a crucial role. As a low-income, predominantly Black neighborhood, it was marked by systemic neglect and struggles with gang activity, though most residents were not involved in crime. The Rangers, outsiders to the community, appeared to misunderstand the neighborhood’s dynamics and often assumed criminality based on biases rather than evidence.
Despite these complexities, law enforcement and the military largely sided with the Rangers, framing them as victims protecting themselves from gang violence. This response highlighted systemic biases and the dismissal of the neighborhood’s perspective, leaving unresolved questions about the Rangers’ role in escalating the conflict and the broader racial and economic disparities at play.
Since the incident, Bill Foulk has become a figure within certain far-right talking circles, often cited as an example of civilian resistance to crime and perceived threats. His actions and the shootout have been reinterpreted by some as a defensive stand against what they view as urban crime or even as a symbol of anti-government sentiment, reflecting the broader polarization in how such events are framed politically. This shift in perception has complicated the narrative, making it even more difficult to assess the shootout in an objective light, as Foulk’s legacy continues to be entangled with ideologies that frame him as a hero to some and as a provocateur to others
