at eye level it may not appear to be relevant but after you look at the history of these kind of incidents, and there's a patternwhats the point of throwing the race card in when race had little to nothing to do with the situation? Crying wolf isn't gonna help.
sounds like something a racist would saywhats the point of throwing the race card in when race had little to nothing to do with the situation? Crying wolf isn't gonna help.
yyyyeap

At race didn't have anything to do with it.
I swear some of y'all must be oblivious to life. As Cornel West said Race Matters all the damn time. Even if it's not the MAIN issue, its always there.
And more importantly its not always African Americans who bring it up. I'm the only black person in my department and I never bring up race at work, but everybody else damn sure does.
Race always matters, especially in situations involving police, whether it matters a lot or a little is debatable depending on the situatiom, but it's still a factor.
FOP police unions State police.. Gods Living and walking.It's an authority issue before anything else. The police department has become the police state. Fraternal brotherhood of police, etc.
So if a black person who is being rushed to the hospital for an emergency procedure doesn't make it because the amber lamps rushing him to the hospital is significantly delayed on the highway because of people illegally entering said highway and causing delays and civil disturbances, we should just shrug out shoulders and say its no big deal?
That deflection and since they did this its ok to do this mindset is a bad look. Causing delays affects all races. Someone may be very sympathetic to the Eric Garner cause but they got every right to be pissed and/or run the illegal barrier over if its causing a huge delay.
All I'm saying is, nothing good comes from illegally walking onto freeways and disrupting traffic and sitting on subway train tracks.
Your beef is with the police department, not with everyday citizens just trying to get to work and get home to their families.
Bruh. Seriously?
If they lady dies, then its quite unfortunate...
But if you look at life that way, damb near nothing would get done.
Take any reform:
Hell, MLK...
He KNEW some people would get injured and even killed...
Did he say "well... This may not benefit everyone... Some people might get injured... So let's just keep things the same"
Nah.
well you tryna be the voice of reason
who made you arbiter of the correct and most effective way to change society?
