Toronto Sun Retracts Joe Warmington Column On ‘Gang Culture’ That Quoted Fake Drake Lyrics

Yeah i'm on the fence with this one as far as protesting so far... her mother admitted she was trying to put netting on the balcony for weeks prior to this incident which suggests she perceived a risk of suicide. there's no clarity here of what really happened. the cops botched the call regardless because they were brought into aid the family and secure her.

Why are we not hearing about body cams? If the police were the only ones in her room when she fell. A body cam should have caught that. A police officer also immediately lied to the mother and said that she was at the neighbours house then said she was on the ground immediately after the mother asked him again.

The situations is tough but I can't pin it as police brutality yet when it might be police incompetence. That's a major difference. One is murder and the other is a failure to secure/aid someone in crisis. Overall the police still have to answer because they have an established pattern in the city of botching mental health related crisis calls involving Black men. We can't forget the dude that was shot in his mothers house in Brampton.

'He was already on the floor': Family looks for answers after Ontario man shot dead by police

Yeah feel the same way. Sounds like a domestic call that went bad. That would also explain why the cops seperated her from her family, if they were responding to a call of a fight. Possible cops could have restrained her better and botched that - both ways hope the family gets closure.


Toronto Police dont have bodycams yet. The Chief has been asking for them, but I think their introduction was delay to end of the year or something along those lines.

I read the comment and its misinformed not racist.

He spoke out of place about something he doesn't understand but he's not a racist just an idealist. Photo Will is cool and anyone that knows him would tell you that.. People have reached out and educated him. His words amount to basically choosing to ignore racism which doesn't account for systematic oppression.
