ask yourselves, what is the value of this information of an event that occured 28 years ago, when it has nothing to do with Walter Scott being killed in 2015?

Because white people don't like us and they WILL have a smear campaign no matter what. Of course it's in there nature to try and get this CAC off. All we can do is stay woke and wait. For real we should be getting our collective economic game up, but that ain't happening. We NEED MORE black entrepreneurs so we have the resources to compete with these cacs. Until we can punish them they will do this pathetic shyt to us.
You Win Perfect
bow down
I would've done the same thing. you can't have intelligent conversations with those idiots.
Why do real black ppl even go on fox news?
thanks for the heads up, you guys are very good at sniffing this stuff out, I would have never understood that until you told us
thanks

well go tell that to the cats in denial and want to totally dismiss the "why did he run" part that this case will be centered around
I don't need to, you guys are doing a wonderful job, kudos!

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar: Nothing Less Than an Assassination
April 8, 2015
It just adds another body to the body count
Another day, another black man murdered by police.
The problem is that we’re not all on the same page about what we’re outraged over and what changes we want to take place. Police critics will claim this is another example of systemic police racism. Police defenders will claim that this was just one bad apple. We will hear the same calls for more oversight, the same protests that civilians are interfering in matters they couldn’t possibly understand.
Sign up for THE BRIEF and more view example
African Americans feel like Alex in A Clockwork Orange, forced to watch the same news story playing over and over on some hellish loop: “Unarmed Black Man Killed by Police.” We scream, we try to turn away, but we can’t. There’s always another prone body on the screen.
MORE Man Who Filmed South Carolina Police Shooting Speaks Out
Walter Scott’s killing should inspire less debate than other recent incidents because of the video. Watching the officer shoot an unarmed, nonthreatening man eight times makes it difficult to see this as anything less than an assassination. It sheds no new light. It just adds another body to the body count.
But Walter Scott does not have to be just another tragic name. It is up to us to not let his death be trivialized. If watching this video doesn’t convince holdouts that racism exists, nothing will. Does anyone really think the officer would have shot Scott if he were white? Racism deniers are like climate-change deniers, letting their hopes blind them to the harsh reality of facts and statistics and blood.
Scott’s death illustrates the need to push harder for the police reforms that are already in the works: more training, more intense oversight by civilians, body cameras and a zero-tolerance policy toward police officers who let their personal biases influence their actions. We need to be as relentless as the racism we’re fighting.

Philadelphia Police Commissioner: This Is a Defining Moment for Our Profession
April 9, 2015
Richard Ellis—Getty Images People participate in a rally to protest the death of Walter Scott after he was shot and killed by police officer Michael Slager, outside City Hall on April 8, 2015 in North Charleston, S.C.
Charles Ramsey is the Philadelphia police commissioner.
It takes events like these to force the kind of change that’s necessary
When I walked into work after seeing the horrific video of the shooting in North Charleston, S.C., everyone I saw was just shaking their heads. They knew it was terrible. It’s a terrible tragedy for Walter Scott’s family. And it’s another black mark for police at a time when we can least afford one.
This is a defining moment for our profession. There is a lot of tension that has been boiling beneath the surface for a long time. Tragic as this shooting is, it takes events like these to force the kind of change that’s necessary.
Police officers need to use better judgment. We need to implement more reality-based training programs that allow cops to better prepare for these life-or-death decisions. Every scenario is different — there are times when officers have no time or cause to use non-lethal options — but all cops need to be trained in a range of responses. Sometimes poor tactics put officers in positions where they resort to deadly force that could have been avoided.
The shooting also shows what a powerful and important tool cameras can be. The cell phone video in South Carolina begins only after something drew the witness’s attention to what was happening. If we equipped more officers with body cameras, we could be able to capture every single incidence from beginning to end, allowing the public to get a full picture, not just a partial one.
This is a hard time to be in this business because the majority of cops do their jobs very well. We’ve got 18,000 police departments in America, and the notion that a majority of them are out of control is not accurate. We all need to work toward understanding each other. Whether you’re talking about black lives matter or all lives matter, don’t limit the conversation to shootings that involve police. The majority of homicides are not the result of police shootings. In Philadelphia, more than 80% of our homicide victims are African American — including Officer Robert Wilson III, who was killed in the line of duty on March 5. Those lives matter, too.

More training?
You're not going to retrain centuries of racist muscle memories.
Let's break up the police union. Let's start with that first. let's hold these district attorneys responsible. Let's hold these fukking jurors responsible.

I think we all understand how this works by now, we all get that these cacs will show no compassion in this case and will focus instead on the irrelevant fact that this man ran from a cop....which of course is a crime punishable by death right???
Yall in here trying to act like yall enlightening somebody, we know that the logic and common sense we are using in this thread will be ignored in the court of law when they try to get this cac off for this murder.
