Here’s the post you requested about Tamir Rice. The Cleveland cop who shot and killed the 12-year-old seconds after exiting his patrol car on Nov. 22, 2014 will not be charged. But you already knew that.
It was announced (yet again) that an Ohio grand jury refused to return an indictment against the cop, who is white.
The Cleveland Prosecutor’s office said (again) that the cop was reasonably in fear of his life because little Tamir had a toy gun in his waistband.
It has been reported countless times over the past several months that no charges would be filed in Tamir’s death. But Tamir’s supporters took yesterday’s news hard, as if it was the first time they’d heard it.
CNN giddily replayed soundbites from yesterday’s press conference in Cleveland, where it was announced (again) that no charges will be filed against the cop.
CNN has your number on repeat and they will keep dialing until you act up. CNN would like nothing more than for you to tear up your neighborhoods and kill each other because they know this is the usual pattern for black people.
So go ahead, take to the streets and tear up your neighborhoods while yelling “BLACK LIVES MATTER!” Because we all know black lives only matter when their deaths are reported on CNN.
If you really cared about Tamir, you would be lending a hand to help build parks in inner city neighborhoods where black children like Tamir can go and play without fear of being shot dead by trigger happy cops.
But here’s the post you requested. Go ahead and tear up your neighborhoods now. Maybe I’ll see you on CNN.
