When will the carnage end? Another unarmed black man, Akiel Denkins, 24, lost his life Monday when police in Raleigh, NC shot him in the back as he was fleeing arrest.
Denkins’ family members say witnesses told them Denkins was unarmed and fleeing for his life when he was shot in the back SEVEN TIMES.
About 300 peaceful protestors took to the streets Monday near where Denkins was gunned down like an animal. Police reported no incidents of violence. But that will change once CNN and the other hate mongers arrive on the scene to agitate the crowd for ratings.
A memorial was erected to the young man whose life was stolen. A Gofundme account was set up to help pay funeral expenses. So far, $525 has been raised toward a goal of $10,000.
Police chief Cassandra Deck-Brown, who is black, released this statement: “Our thoughts and our prayers go out to all involved in today’s incident.”
It should not be illegal in this great country to run for your life from the gang in blue.
The punishment should not be death for running away from cops!
There has been a steady uptick in this sort of racist police violence on black people since President Obama was elected. Call the White House and demand that Obama do something!
RIP brother.
can you imagine what will happen if that 2nd Generation Klansman gets into office?!?!
Sandra not sure if you heard about another police shooting in Montgomery Alabama. Officer shot and killed a man right outside of his home and as usual he was unarmed. This is really starting to scare me, although there are some good cops they’re seemingly being out numbered by the bad SOB’s.
Said what I had to say downstairs about my city. This is my part of Raleigh too. Dub11 middle school she will be attending next year is walking distance from the scene. RIP Akiel. All I can muster.
It’s starting to scare me too especially for ALL the black males I know including my sons. Even us females.
We need to teach our black sons that it’s safer to just stop, than to run from the cops. If you run, that just gives them an excuse to kill you.
Of course they can kill you too when you’re not running, but running just makes some of these racist trigger-happy cops feel more justified in shooting at you.
Why do these black men keep trying to resist arrest when they know how trigger happy these cops are? They’re literally giving them reasons to shoot them. R.I.P to the guy, but I can’t say I feel too bad for him.
would you feel bad for him if it was your own brother?
I agree he shouldnt have been running, but just because he was wrong for running doesnt mean he should get the death sentence.
In 2016 why are black men still running and resisting arrest when they know police are shooting to kill?? There needs to be new police mandates to instruct when lethal force is necessary.
.. like Sandra Bland.
arrested for no reason.
dead for no reason.
Unfortunately, we will have to really teach them not to run. Don’t say anything until they read you your rights, don’t sign anything and first and foremost, GET A LAWYER!
OMG HE LOOKS JUST LIKE BIG KRIT! I’M READING THAT CNN STORY FROM DOWNSTAIRS RIGHT NAH!
If it was my brother, he wouldn’t have been in such a situation in the first place. He certainly would’ve had enough common sense to not run. While obviously I do not agree that running from the police warrants a bullet in the back, you can’t give these police any sort of excuse to shoot you. This man brought it on himself.
Exactly! I’m like my God. I don’t play with cops at all after an encounter I had with one some years ago. This guy ran out in front of me and the cop pulled over. I was clearly upset and he treated me like crap. I had never in life been made to feel that way in my life knowingly. From that moment on I don’t look at them the same.
No reason at all except DWB (driving while black) I used to think these sort of things only happen in the south but they are growing more abundantly all over. This must stop they can’t keep killing us like this. It makes me so sad
Side Note! Good Lawd! Now that is a face that only a mother could love. I know she a cop and all but is she allergic to a little make-up! Did she not know she was on TV?
If they do we’re domed!

@sandrarose All this!!!^^^
It does NOT matter if they run or stay. Some would rather take their chances.
Exactly. They are killing Blacks even if they do NOT run or make a scene.
You never ever know what situations life will bring to you. But it is much easier to say what you would do unless you are in that situation yourself. Hopefully your brother will never go through that.
Dismissive. You do not know what someone would do in this situation. You have no idea if the cop was already being abusive and the young man was fleeing from abuse out of fight or flight.
Im interested in how Cassandra Deck-Brown is going to spin this since her OWN 24 year old damn son has a rap sheet including some of the SAME charges the dead had. Resisting arrest. Drug charges. This coulda been her own son. I want her fugly ass off my TV screen and internets ASAP if all she has to say is sorry. Our bad.
If this kind of stuff is going on while we have Obama as president, how much worse would it get if we get Donald Trump as president?
Sandra you do realize that it is not Obama who should do something but instead the Justice Department right?
All of those police wanted to boycott a pop singer’s concert because their feelings were hurt by her super bowl show of 5 minutes, but none, and I mean none of them boycott themselves for killing innocent men, women, and children or police brutality of their own people. As usual their priorities are fked up.
But he can put pressure on them. The president sets the tone and can use his influence to get results.
The same Raleigh police that shot this man are the same ones who voted in this city to boycott Beyonce’s May concert last week.
They’re already in, you just don’t see them as easily. Why do you think the po-po are able to get away with this in every city USA.
Wow. That’s bananas!
Walter Scott in SC was behind on his child support and they’re saying that might have been why he ran from that cop. He ended up dying as a result of that.. shot in the back.
People run for all kinds of reasons, but these cops are trained and know that if the person is not armed you DONT shoot at them!!…. but they still do it.
That’s murder in my book.
Well, I’m sure she has a nice personality.
Oh its coming. David’s own record about to be brung up soon. She better find the right words about her officer killing folk. “This is sad” aint it.
http://wncn.com/2015/07/13/previous-arrests-for-raleigh-police-chiefs-son-included-drug-charges/
“They killed my son for no reason,” a distraught Byrd said. “Everybody out here said he was running, didn’t have a gun, (was) trying to jump a fence (to flee police), and that officer shot my son seven times. For what? For nothing.”
Akiel Denkins, who had an outstanding warrant.
Denkins had been convicted three times on drug offenses, according to the state Department of Public Safety. There were pending charges against him from last fall of possession with intent to distribute cocaine and probation violations.
A gun was found “in close proximity to” the dead man, the chief said. Police have not said whether the gun belonged to Denkins, or whether he threatened the officer.
“Initially it is known that a firearm was located in close proximity to the deceased suspect,” said Deck-Brown. “That weapon, along with all other elements available at the scene will be processed.”
According to the Department of Public Safety, Denkins was on probation for drug charges at the time of his death.
For every action, there is a reaction. And as a safety precaution
PLEASE DO NOT RUN FROM THE POLICE !
For $137,000 US American dollars you would think her big wide ass would do better.
You’re very stupid.
You need to view the arrest of the guy in Seattle a week or so ago.
He was on the passenger side of the vehicle and after he exited the car the cops came up behind him and told him to put his hands up which he did.
Then he proceeded to lie face down on the ground and then the cops shot him.
The guy was 6’2 250 and it was a tight space but the cops said that he pulled a gun. Uh where would he have gotten a gun that neither one of the cops saw and how would he have gotten it out when he was pinned between the cops and the vehicle?
Don’t believe everything you hear.
Eric Garner didnt run.
But he still died.
Unless you’re pointing a gun at the police here in the UK, you will NOT get shot. You can run all you like they’ll chase you until they get tired (which is pretty quick ?) and call for backup chasing you. We are not allowed guns over here it’s the law but it seems the police in general are too trigger/ violence happy smh. Watch them say he had a gun etc which is probably bull. R.I.P young man.
Edit: what happened to tasers? They don’t taser folks anymore? Especially unarmed people
Oh so you’re one of those self-righteous Negroes.
I was like you until l had an eye-opening experience in high school and then another with a cop about four years ago.
Smh….some people will say he shouldn’t have ran but black men have been killed in handcuffs! Black men have been killed laying face down on the ground! It comes to the point where it doesn’t matter if a black person is moving or not he may get shot. I say black person because our females are being targeted also.
Clearly he’s a weedhead whose mama’s connections keep getting him off. I agree, her response would be very different if it were her son…and the way he keeps going one day it may be.
According to the Department of Public Safety, Denkins was on probation for drug charges at the time of his death.
^^^^^^^^^^
I want to know why her OWN damn son aint on probation for drug charges. Oh. I know why.
It’s a shame that as black people we have to have this kind of conversation with our sons about how to interact with cops so they dont get shot. White parents dont need to do this with their white sons.. nor hispanic parents, nor asian nor arab parents…. just us black folks.
And folks try to tell us racism has mostly disappeared from American society. Clearly it has not.
Police union. I say that’s the only way to begin successfully prosecuting police. It shouldn’t be hard considering those republikkkans hate teachers unions.
Or the handcuffed guy in Arkansas who committed ‘suicide’ in the backseat of the police cruiser.
*sigh*
You didnt have to name call.
SMDH… Not here for the BS Today already see it coming…..Good morning roses, see y’all in another Post.
He did
Right, Sandra Bland didn’t run either. I think cops are abandoning the way of the old and using militant forces. I believe they’re course of action now is to KILL. Not subdue, keep alive, protect and serve but KILL. I’ve seen back in the day people run and the cops give chase and the person got to live and see another day. These police officers need to be in Iraq somewhere. not over here.
It’s never been illegal. Matter fact it’s constitutionally protected that you do not have to comply with false illegal arrests.
Side note: Tupac was not charged with shooting cops.
A white man kidnapped his girlfriend and her two kids yesterday in Cali. 5 hours and one slow-speed chase later this dude ran up a hill ‘in slow motion’ on live TV to escape. NOT ONE BULLET HIT HIM!! He’s still on the run.
It does not take SEVEN BULLETS to stop a man from running!!!
Gone tell it. ~goes to get my coffee~
Quite a few veterans out there.
Wow over child support really. Terrible terrible. But racism don’t exist right? smh! Won’t nothing happen to those cops AT ALL.
Isn’t Your husband a Miami pig? BYE HONKEY! I keep track of ALL the RACIST TRASH LIKE YOURSELF ON SR.
So sad but why do people run if they have not did anything?
Really. ?
Yes there was a vote by the RPD to boycott Beyonce’s May 3rd concert date. They voted to actually not boycott. But still. They voted on it.
*Black fist high* so do I.
LMFAO! No you didn’t just use the fat girl excuse. Lawd it is too early!
LOL U a mess!
It sure is looking like Trump will win, what in the heck will we do then, scary and sad times we live in. We ALL have to pray but I want to know what does this ALL mean?
This black man got 7 bullets in the back.
The Charleston church shooter got a Whopper with cheese.
And I dated one before. Chile what little MariahLynn say “never bish never bish! They CRAZY…….
I have a memory like an elephant, I don’t forget ish! That fool Miami Dade got family that work for the thugs in blue. She white too, I guess the dumb broad didn’t think anyone would remember. ??
O_0 Black men are animals… Police are to use weapons of mass destruction. If tried, your case will be dismissed. It’s called White Privilege and being a cop. You’re above the law..
He such a handsome man too. Such a tragedy.
Mandates are already in place, so…
Running from danger and escaping confinement is HUMAN NATURE.
It is unreasonable for police to use deadly force against a fleeing suspect unless the “officer has probable cause to believe that the suspect poses a significant threat of death or serious physical injury to the officer or others.”
There are countries where it is not illegal to escape prison because they recognize your nature as a human to be free. Germany, Denmark and I believe Mexico have these laws.
Sandra please do a post on Abi Mohammed that is in a coma whom was shot by a police officer while holding a broomstick…
BTW, Im black…I just wonder if this is what they tell these cops.
I heard about that case. Wonder what will come of this?
The thugs in blue are NOT suppose to shoot a fleeing suspect. Only trigger happy cowards shoot people in the back.
Transparent.
I had the same experience with a cop years ago, treated me like crap too! I was so hurt and confused, shook it off and never looked at the same.
No prayer. We have to ALL GET OUT AND VOTE! Yes he will win the nomination but he will not win the election. We not the only group that hates this man and now he is on his hate campaign and he can’t roll it back. Black women voters and the Hispanic vote will bring him down.
I’m saying! Why train to run, jump, slide etc when all you have to do is shoot. Fire all hostage negotiators, no more high speed chases (or low speed for OJ), jump up the number of snipers and be done with it. Come on now. And is shooting in the kneecap no longer an option? Nobody had a bean bag? No dogs available? I can think of about 50-11 ways that man could still be alive.
OMG! damn shame!
They will find it a justifiable assault for the cops.
Probably deadly force with a broom! If they that scared of a broom, why become a cop!
Bye Honkey? and I’m the racist. You one self-righteous @ss hoe, have several seats. You trashcan @ss b!tch you wish you f*cking knew me. Stop assuming what the entire f*ck you don’t know with your caddy @ss.
Good keep track hoe & continue to keep track after that, ain’t sh!t gone change but the time & date.
All of them, even the black cops. They are the WORST!
“There has been a steady uptick in this sort of racist police violence on black people since President Obama was elected. Call the White House and demand that Obama do something!”
This inspired me, so I went online and wrote to Obama…if we all just write our facts and opionions it can make a difference – pass it on..I have vowed to write everyday, even if its the same letter!
https://www.whitehouse.gov/contact
I had a cop pull me over for expired tags and ask “who’s selling the dope near your home?” Me: ? Ion’t know! I ain’t on it so I don’t know. Talking about “you have kids. Don’t they play outside?” Me: ? Not out front. We get in the car and go. Him: “I’m trying to help you”. Me: ? Well just give me the ticket cause I.Dont.Know.
Phukka tried to make detective that day. ?
Eric Gardner did not run – No weapon choked to death
Tamir Rice did NOT run – 12 years old, toy gun in an open carry state
Amadou Diallo did NOT run – in police custody
John Crawford did NOT run – No weapon- holding BB gun in Walmart
Ezell Ford did NOT run – No weapon- mentally ill
Dante Parker did NOT run – no weapon- tasered to death
Tanisha Anderson did NOT run – in police custody- no weapon- head slammed on ground
Akai Gurley did NOT run – walking down stair well no weapon
Should I go on?!
These are truly critical times , hard to deal with.
Because there are too many examples of people who didn’t run or do anything that still died. Fight or flight reaction kicks into gear when you are faced with possible harm. Just like the officers don’t know who they are facing, neither do the civilians. Sad times
I’m so sick of this SHAAAT!!! I just saw on the news this morning that another teen was killed because he was holding a stick…WTF?? A stick…running I HATE this INJUSTICE
Darling…….a trigger happy cop needs no reason or have you NOT been watching the news?!
How is that relevant to my comment? I’m not disagreeing that cops unfairly shoot people. I’m saying that you’re increasing your chances of getting shot exponentially if you resist arrest.
He brought 7 bullets in his back on himself?! Seriously you thought that, typed it and even decided to post it!!
People run out of fear…that is no justification for shooting a man in the back..how about chasing after him or tasing instead…Ignorance is bliss
After reading your comment , I Google Cassandra I found a number where I could reach her. I’m going to call her and ask why HER cops ( mostly white) boycotting black people? I’m going to bring up her son too. Ask her how would she feel it that were her son? Truthfully speaking if she weren’t the cheif of police her son would have been dead long ago.
I wonder how karma will come back on your insensitive ass…no one is an angel so I’m sure some bad mojo is lurking around the corner for you too
Just awful! Some of them make me itch!
I think you and others are intentionally missing the point of my comment just to insult me. Obviously there is no justification, I’m simply saying that if you resist arrest, you’re increasing your chances of getting shot. That’s it and nothing more.
“Denkins was arrested eight different times in 2015 on charges including felony cocaine possession, carrying a concealed gun, assault on a female and resisting a public officer, Wake County records show.Officer D.C. Twiddy, 29, was trying to arrest the man on a felony drug charge when he shot and killed the suspect, Deck-Brown said.”
Nice red bandanas hanging on the fence as well. No, he didn’t deserve to be murdered, but he ran for a reason. Actions have consequences. He chose to risk his life, KNOWING the police are killing black men daily, rather than risk going to jail on the warrant. Live by the gun, die by the gun.
And are you disputing how active the DOJ has been in these police shootings? Eric Holder and Loretta Lynch have been nothing less than vigilant in this regard. Are you saying Obama has nothing to do with that since as you say he sets the tone.
They have moved from killing older black men to killing younger black men and babies and women when they can, but some of our very own people will find a reason to make the dead victim a villain.
I thought this only happend to “thug” guys but one time I had this experience where a Mexican police officer punched me and his fellow officers rushed me piled on top of me and than punched me two more times. I opened my door that’s all!! (There’s stuff that I’m omitting for privacy but u must no I’m white ciollar washed all the way lol just my nature but I’m growing-back to story) in the police car I told the officer I was going to complain and get them fired. He told me he was going to put me up on federal charges for batter of an officer And I could have been processed and released as I had only a traffic warrant( failure to appear traffic ticket ) but since I attacked an officer I was going to jail. Thank god for money as bail was posted but I could have lost my career over a felony on my record. I was innocent they hit me after I opened my door inquiring and simply asked what they wanted. Plus!!!! The DA dismissed it but she a Jewish lady let me read whT they wrote: tears come from my eyes almost now as without a doubt I could not ignore the reality of me being black as they wrote I attacked them threw fist and hit one etc. DA dismissed it as one thing in there report conflicted with there story and coloborated with mine. She said I could sue but I need evidence or that I should just forget it ever happened and be thankful it’s dismissed but than she said it it more people came forward.
Sorry I wrote all this on your thread and I’m not sure why but you made me think with what you said. Crazy thing I talked to some guys while spending the weekend in jail waiting for bail I thought wow it happened to me. Me the guy who always respected police worked with the various depts professional always obeyed the “don’t talk back no sudden movements rule” wow it happened to me. How many other people like me in jail stuck on some trump up fake charges they didn’t do all because they nor they family have or willing to put up bail and hire a lawyer?
Flip side that was just that officer I met good officer that weekend who supported me and had great officer experience in the past but the mf those mf straight up lied and actually attacked me because I asked them what they wanted when I opened my door as I was surprised they were knocking on my door I thought It was a fire or something. Racism? Profiling because I’m 6ft4 200 Blk that I’m aggressive not knowing I’m a medical professional who is federally cleared. Or was it humans being human like that person who makes you wait longer in line because you said she is slow. Idk. But to think all those men who could be in jail for no reason. Come to think I new of a black man spent from 19 to death 70 in life for being accused of rapping a white girl in the south back in the 40’s Is it really racism ? Do society in general really hate and dislike the color of my skin? Wow the stuff in the 60’s the lynching slavery etc it’s really true I mean I no it is and I thought I was somehow better but the older I get I see that in generally my color is not excepted.
It really did something to me, the hate in that man eyes was so scary. I know how you feel and glad that you’re okay.
7 bullets in the back?! Really, it took 7 bullets into a fleeing man’s back!! Um, okay
And a Atta boy.
That’s the issue at hand, the interpretation of “the officer has probable cause to BELIEVE that the suspect poses a SIGNIFICANT threat of death or serious physical injury to the OFFICER or others”.
When it’s 1:1 and the officer says this, that, and the other, that’s usually what it is going to be.
Perhaps that was a bit too harsh, but if you’re a black male and run from the police, you should expect to get shot.
Just read the article about the police chief’s son…shameful. After I read this line here I had to hit that X button on the top right of my screen: “Courthouse documents show Brown was at the Ugly Monkey on West Morgan Street”
No, you should expect to get chased, perhaps tasered and handcuffed, just like a white person would.
OK!
She knows she lacks diversity already though.
http://www.newsobserver.com/news/local/crime/article48222800.html
To expect that result is pure naivety and will get you killed. You and I both know that’s not how the world works. You shouldn’t expect to be treated the same as a white person in any real life scenario.
Well ah…errrummm… The Ugly Monkey is actually a helleva place. My nephew wanted to have his birthday gathering there, so I was actually there bout 3-4 weeks ago.
I said what I should expect……NOT what I know will more then likely happen.
Thank you…glad u OK too. I saw the hate too – I instantly thought ‘oh you are not for me’. It left me feeling alone.
This just made me teary eyed. I’m so sorry that you had to endure any of this. It’s not fair and I pray that the officers who abuse their power are held accountable for their actions.
Oh I’m sure it’s a great spot. Their drink menu looks delicious. But after seeing his photo and then reading that he was in a place called the Ugly Monkey I knew I wasn’t going to be ish so I had to exit stage left.
Ignorance is NEVER bliss.
I know me too! I cried so bad, but I’m a big cry baby any ways, but it just scared the day lights out of me. The guy who hit me seen how the officers reacted to me crying and was super nice and stayed with me. He kept putting his hands on his gun, which freaked me out. I was just crying, no screaming or nothing so I couldn’t understand why he was hostile.
Hugs. I’m ok now. Thank you
Conditioned-Desensitized negros will make any and every excuse for Massa’s antics!
I remember a dude had a BRICK…..and he got shot up by the cops. If yo ass can’t dodge a brick being thrown at you from 30 to 50 feet away, then you need to hand in yo badge. A BRICK????!
I refuse to speak down on ALL cops, but just like regular people they’re good and bad. They’re people at the end of the day, and a blue uniform shouldn’t allow them to get away with atrocities civilians can’t get away with. The rotten cops only protect and serve them-damn-selves, not the public. All the best crooks are in government and law enforcement and civil service positions! The best gangsters to ever do it, do it on America’s dime.

True but if your back is to me and you are unarmed where is threat. There is a chance you can run through a person, so shot the knees out!

Define ‘resisting’.
Did Sandra Bland resist arrest when she answered the cop’s dumb @$$ed question?
Then he escalated the situation by telling her to put out her cigarette then went apesh!t and told her to get out of her car.

You cannot compare this situation to Eric Garner or Sandra Bland. Did either Bland or Garner flee?
There are many that have expressed what law enforcement should and should not be allowed to do. And clearly that’s not working. It’s a string of unarmed black men getting killed by law enforcement. That string will continue to get longer if fleeing from law enforcement continues. Any type of reform that may or may not happen will not happen overnight. Until then just know fleeing from law enforcement can result in serious injury and/or death.

I’m so sorry to hear these details, bless your heart. I’m convinced that its truly racial, they have no empathy for black women – at all!

Fa real!
Fa real!
Am I missing something, but why do people resist arrest?! Back up even further – why are you being stopped in the 1st place?! Cops should only use deadly force when their lives or innocent lives are in danger. But there’s a whole other issue we need to address.

People run from the police all the time. It does not mean they should be shot and killed. White boy’s do it too but they don’t get a bullet for it. They should let them go and just out a warrant out for their arrest. This was petty

This is why we have to be careful when we vote for the President or anyone for that matter..
Yes… please continue.
Glad to hear and you’re welcome.
Not at all.. Smh
It’s not the POTUS fault. ..stop it. …. its your county and state officials that you choose to vote for….
True but the sad part is a lot of minorities will not vote.
The next time your county or city has an election for police chief, mayor, etc. make sure you vote..this is the only way we will ever have change
When that adrenaline drops its like your feet fly off the ground. Poor thing
Address whaaat? That would require change and that would be too much like right.
Who are we to say if someone’s life besides our own should feel threatened or be in danger? There’s no rule book as to how homosapians shall respond to real life situations.
I so agree and try to get out and vote at every opportunity I get.
What can Obama do that this blog won’t marginalize?
But really, with all that we know about these cops why are we still being petty?
There has been a steady uptick in this sort of racist police violence on black people since President Obama was elected. Call the White House and demand that Obama do something! This shit is getting totally out of hand. This country is about to end up as third world country if donald dump gets elected. Why would he want to be endorsed by david devil dukes ? Shit is about to get real.
When I was a teenager, my father told my younger brother and I to always comply with police officers. Always! Do NOT resist and do NOT run!!! Period. If we felt we were mistreated, we were to attempt to get a badge number or at the very least a good description and bring that info home to him and my mom. Anytime an arrest is made, booklet forms are completed. So, even without a badge number we could likely find the cop. This is the lesson we should teach our youth. Stop running! Those bad cops will be dealt with, but resisting does not help your case.
Actually no I have a cousin who lived by the gun but died by cancer…I hope you do know that the biggest criminals by far is the U.S. government… but you stay sleep and continue to be a part of the propaganda that makes our ppl look like the biggest criminals in life while they have that “excuse” to take a life…smmfh
No words right now. The conversations to children in brown homes regarding your rights and life are definitely different than others. This is sad.
I think where most find a problem is with the police banding together and not speaking out on the rotten ones.
Shut your dumb ass up. You get the point. No one is performing for your entertainment.
Definitely!
Sandra, the police have been put in place to slaughter Black people since slavery. This has nothing to do with president Obama. You believe that once another president is elected that all of a sudden Black lives will matter?
I totally agree!! We have to vote in the same numbers that we did in 2008 for Pres Obama. This man is a danger to the US as we know it. #scared!
thanks for your comment!
Great point! Thank you! xoxo
Certainly did not deserve 7 to the back while running away unarmed. This ish needs to end….my heart goes out to his family
This is getting out of hand. Sandra white ppl didn’t all of a sudden decide to start killing black ppl once Obama got in office. It has been happening since the start of this country’s existence. Stop trying to find a way to blame him alone for all of America problems. You sound like the repblicans who, when Bush was in office really messing things up putting this country into a recession didn’t really have anything to say about it. Found accuses to blame everyone else, but him and his administration.
Call the White House and demand that Obama do something!<<<<<This….yeah right blacks are on his phucket list.
The Simpsons told us 20 years ago
This isn’t already known? I grew up with Stop or I’ll Shoot. I think our children need to be taught that we are handled more harshly by law enforcement. But they should also be taught a respect for authority and the law, which I see greatly lacking today.
If the cops can’t run they should be on the force. They are out of shape.
I know…smh..I know!
Too many of these stories. Why was there a chase if no crime was committed? A lot of missing info to this story. Also, a Gofundme is not life insurance. Years ago Black people paid their last dime for their life insurance premiums.
You said a mouth full of the truth
yes his name is Greg Gunn! and he was definitely murdered.. shot five times while walking home from a friends house.
How is running a threat, police today rather shoot you than chase you. They go home drink there beer smoke they weed and cigs too. They out of shape ass rather pull a trigger. Sad, rip young 1
Wow you been thru alot I can say one thing people be careful the power of paper and pen in the hands of those in authority is very dangerous in all aspects of life …I was fired from a job by the power of the pen and it wasn’t even true it’s sad but when dealing with police you must be cool and while they are acting a fool get the badge name police car number and document every single word and action that has taken place and report it because we are at their mercy when they are before us and as you can see wrong or right the law and people tend to side with the police and people of authority…but until it happens to them people will come with the he shoulda coulda woulda… I’m glad you made it unscaved and are here to tell your story
I know this is a serious topic but you got me cracking up like you had no patients with dude lol I’m laughing so hard right now …
Thanku. I will remember to document everything as u said
Tell me about I had a experience with a black cop I was in the wrong so no excuses but his treatment of me was foul my grandmother died on the phone with me but I didn’t know it so I hung up and kept calling until she answered but it was the police who answered and told me she was gone mind you I was driving I was so focused on what the cop was saying that I was spending I was in total disbelief I had just left her at home she died in my house so fast forward I get pulled over I’m crying upset not yelling or anything but that black cop talked to me like I was shid he threaten to take me to jail I kept saying sir I’m sorry my grandmother just died he was like so I was like well escort me to my house he said I’m not escorting you kno where he gave me a ticket which was 275..00 mind you and he would let me drive my friend had to drive us sh3 was with me nor would he let us drive off until I stopped crying no mercy nothing just a itch so to me they all are jerks who abuse their power but we need them tho
Please do it helps I work in hr and when supervisors bring people to me and ask for them to be terminated I take them in a side room and get straight real I’m like stfu don’t say shid to them do your work write down everything dates times witnesses come tell me you let handle stuff for you I do that because it’s hard finding a good paying job and I’m going to put somebody up for termination just because a supervisor don’t like them I investigate I go and ask witnesses I try to protect my people that I represent I’m telling documentation is important because it’s your proof when shid hits the fan
I’m talking about the workers supervisors bring in to me
Trust me when I say those cops will be terrorized murders will be haunted by terror and they will get what they deserve you might not hear about but nobody who commits evil has any rest or peace period
People are glad to have you represent them. Thanks! I will do
Which is why I voted today and took a van full of people with me. I crammed in as many as I could. I got the neighbors involved too. By the time I was done we had 4 vans full of folks. I am SURELY voting after they told me they are moving my job overseas and my entire department is being laid off.
Since you want to chime in…Did I call for your clown ass to perform? But for whatever point(s) I did make it had your stupid dysfunctional ass behind the keyboard performing.
My Hispanic co worker said her husband is voting for trump. He’s Hispanic. I didn’t understand it.
LOL I know I probably looked crazy. smh That’s the problem. This is serious and the fool really couldn’t care less & thinks the whole thing is a joke. Now he’ll trolling looking for more entertainment? Not today Satan!
This is why I have to stop procrastinating and get a dash cam. I believe they average $50, too. The one I want is just under $200. This will come in handy for “traffic stops” and possible accidents. Hopefully I won’t have a need anytime soon but I will hopefully hit record on my phone if I’m ever stopped.
Lol I know I had to get off that topic because I couldn’t stop laughing heck I’m laughing now that was like the funniest clapback I’ve seen this week and trust me I’ve been on these blogs for about a week I’m on vacation so Im on the couch reading everybody comments and yours was like the best I know you must be funny in person cuz u got me cracking up lol I loved when you said you get the point I almost died lol cuz I could actually see your face your tone lol u r funny I can’t stop laughing????
I told you guys to expect more shootings (modern day lynchings) of Black Men in Mass occurring in the coming months.
Do you have any links or names?
Do you have a link? I can’t find anything relevant when searching that name.

Thanks.
“The punishment should not be death for running away from cops!”
Perfectly stated by Ms. Rose
Her husband is mastering the art of American disassociation. Aligning with white racists disassociates one from the stigma associated with being black or an ethnic minority.
Black families need to learn intracultural conflict resolution and build community resources for addressing and healing conflicts and abuse. Because calling the police for domestic disputes has become a death sentence for black people.
AMEN
No chivalry either. They’ll treat a white female degenerate meth head crook with courtesy in an arrest yet treat articulate respectable black women like public enemy #1 for a traffic ticket. Racism is sick.

Speak!!!!!! Call her mam and everything!
It is sick – sick that they still treat us like this – going 600 years – we were laws and property. And they still treat us this way subliminaly and blatantly! Jobs, courts, schools, restaurants, welfare, houses etc…
For some reason it’s a syndrome for us not come together to solve anything! Folks in certain positions claims their hands are tied…folks don’t want to reveal their resources…jealousy, envy….
If only we had the mind of our ancestors , The Black Wall Street 6-1-21!
Thanks….
Thanks.
most Hispanic countries are a version of republican. immigration reform actually helps them more then democrats.
the fbi came to detroit and monitored the police. they set up training programs which curbed alot of officer shooting.
years ago a state trooper told me that he tells his new officers that some times you dont chase. sometimes they get away. its not worth killing someone and its not worth you being killed.
these gun ho police crews need to learn this. they aren’t trained properly.
Sorry you experienced this!
Thanku very much. It opened my eyes to the bad in human nature but I will not label all people racist
With most things I believe it’s better to have it and not need it then to need it and not have it. Gone & get you that cam.
amen!!
and not only presidential but local elections, that’s where we really drop the ball, because in these areas of unrest (as the city cited in this article), blacks need to TURN OUT & vote IN people to represent your district, the people in office need to REFLECT the PEOPLE in YOUR neighborhood. Vote for people that will not let this type unjust and unnecessary death be in vain.
Yes, I said this exact thing in another post about voting!! Local elections are more important than the general elections but most people don’t understand and the turnout is low and dismal.
Yup. They don’t just let anyone wander into their country. They arrest and deport, no excuses. We should adopt Mexico’s immigration laws. Let’s see them call us “racist” then.
