Homeless black man recorded while being choked to death on New York Subway (trigger warning) #jordanneely

It doesn't matter if he had been arrested a hundred times before his death. That ex-marine didn't know all of this information at that time. Cacs use the criminal record tactics to justify killing black men. I wish black people would stop falling for the okey-doke.

What's he doing?

I feel like some social commentators don't give Republicans the same energy they give Democrats. These people have so much smoke for Dems, but never offer solutions or alternatives.

The shyt is mind boggling to me

That the response from a lot of these folks...are...he was arrested 44 times

How does being arrested 44 times translate to "Well...might as well choke him to death since no one else is going to do something about this guy"

Jordan Neely Just Needed Some Help | Defector

You only get the one life. I keep thinking about that. A 30-year-old black man named Jordan Neely died on a New York City subway train on Tuesday. He was upset, yelling, possibly in the midst of a mental health crisis, and then a white man came over and put him in a chokehold and […]

defector.com

"He was hungry and thirsty and tired and upset. He was experiencing a whole stack of separate crises piled onto each other. He walked into a crowded subway car carrying those crises; one of the people there decided that the problem, in that situation, wasn't that Jordan Neely was hungry or thirsty or tired, or that he was in obvious distress, but rather that on top of those other things he was also breathing, and killed him. Somebody else took their phone out and recorded it. That was Jordan Neely's whole and only life. It ended when he walked into a room full of people, homeless and hungry and thirsty and tired, and they helped themselves to his silence."

I am being patient but these fukks better arrest that marine.

if he was arrested 44 times, that shows that his crimes were mostly not serious enough to keep him and they had custody of a mentally ill man that many times and did nothing to help stabilize him

I hope justice is served.

I just got updated on this story and watched the video about sick of these hero as Cac's

 

[Neuromancer]

I'm ashamed of this city. Vigilantism is now ok?

 

[I Really Mean It]

Great video until he got political. I see what he's doing.

but, this can’t be separated from the context of political inaction when it comes to black grief.

fukk him. Lawyers aren't making a statement like this if it wasn't at the very least manslaughter.

Hope he rots in jail.

Biden needs to step in, this is some bullshyt

I can always find the people who grew up in po'dunk ass backwoods towns.

You see a dozen of cacs and brehs like this on the subway everyday, B. In any and every major city. It's part of the experience. Don't make eye contact. Mind your business. And let him get his shyt off.

This cac was a fish outta water, country boy in the big city (like a bunch of naive nikkas in this thread), forgot he wasn't in Iraq and wanted to be a super hero here at home. HOPE HE ROTS IN PRISON.

Edit: He should have known better.

I agree with you
