Fist off, don't compare me to Ben Carson.
Second, I'm not saying what the police did was right at all. Their actions should have never tooken place. And yeah, if it was a white male this would have been a completely different situation. The police is clearly in the wrong here. But what I'm saying we need to look at what the fuck if going on and she shit isn't fair.
Until there is police reform stupid shit like stealing cars only puts into more interactions with the police. C'mon now man, I know you see shit all the time on social media like "Free my man _____" when the person in jail obviously did some stupid and illegal shit. We should mad at police brutality and we rightfully should. The whole system is fucked. And we should get mad when police shoot unarmed black men for no fucking reason. But we shouldn't get mad when people do stupid shit. When Action A (in this case stealing a car) always leads to either Resolution B (Get Away), C (Confrontation with police) why take the risk of performing Action A when Resolution C always leads to Resolution D (Death by police).
We see that police is getting away with this shit so we gotta do things differently even if that means not interacting with the police at all. His death shouldn't have happened at the hands of these police and neither should have many others. I'm not blaming the victim for running or even ramming into the police car cause he problem scared out of his fucking mind and I'm not blaming his death for not complying with the police, which shouldn't ever be a reason for death. I'm saying he shouldn't stolen a car in the first place when he knows that black men are target to the police right now. He knows there will be no justice until something changes and shit like this isn't helping the cause.
Complying with police has been getting people executed as well. This proves that behavior of the citizen is not the trigger for execution, but it is the officers piss poor training. Folks can make better decisions, yes, but those better decisions often do not matter in the United States, with its current state of remedial police training. Wagging your finger in the face of the dead to say "shoulda known better," or "we need to act right," reduces the focus on those who decided to escalate this and take a life. This includes shooting wildly at a moving vehicle. There are so many things that point to reckless behavior of the police, but its just flat out glossed over to focus on the criminal. As if this person made the police act this way.
Of course he shouldn't have stolen a car, it's against the law. No one should break a law. To prevent people from doing so, there are penalties for breaking them. Which require a court of law to dictate the penalty/punishment. His breaking a law has little to do with his death. I'd say unless aiming a gun at police, but no, I've seen white people do this and be arrested.
I get mad when stupid shit gets people killed, because a person is killed for doing something, that if they were anyone else, or in another nation, wouldn't be. Its upsetting to know how far behind our police are in dealing with crime. Its upsetting to know my taxes are going to the pay-off for the family. Justice for all doesn't just mean the educated, or the people who have never made mistakes. I'm sure they knew better, yet, still made the decision to do this. There is something to be said about that. And I doubt its just that they decided to die that day for nothing, but who knows.
There is no cause to help. Americans have decided this is perfectly acceptable. People have nothing to lose, as the nation has reinforced that attitude. BLM was met with efforts to make police a protected class, and all lives matter. Preventing neighborhoods going to shit and breeding criminals is a solution, but there are private prisons that benefit on a constant flow of criminals. The whole cause thing is a myth, until other folks start getting executed, there isn't going to be reform. This guy certainly didn't make or break the
cause, as anyone in front of an officer is guilty of getting into trouble to begin with.
Everyone knows there is no justice, even when you comply and you're demanding people change their behavior. Thats a bit unrealistic.
