      URGENT - ALL HANDS ON DECK Last night in Oakland a 25-30 year old heavyset white man targeted and slashed the throats of 2 teenage girls - killing 18 y/o #NiaWilson and critically injuring her sister.

      When we see horrific police brutality against African Americans, we often say police need more training. But here, while arresting a violent white murderer, they show us they absolutely know how to be calm, cool, & methodical...when they want to. Hard to teach that.pic.twitter.com/IL5wu4z8qw

          They'll say, "Look at how calm and cooperative he is. That's why he isn't being swarmed." I'm sure this guy was calm when he suddenly slashed the throats of those 2 women. He's already demonstrated he's unstable, but because he's white, he's given the benefit of the doubt.

          That's the Greg Hill shooting. I'm going over that case on my facebook. The cops lied out of their ass! Said there was a standoff after they shot him in the head. Then sent around a picture as falsified evidence. This one.pic.twitter.com/VMYmUosSVW

          I was under the impression that because there's an OBVIOUS police style camera in the frame, this was taken the night of the shooting before the SWAT went in. See, they claimed they drilled a hole RIGHT where this device s positioned and took video images inside the garage.

          This is the type of shit I am talking about and why Kolin took a fucking knee. They know he is a killer but proceed with caution. How come you do not use the same caution when arresting a black person. For selling cigarettes or for reaching for his ID

          Why is he not face down on the ground. Is that not the police's favorite position of submission. If that were me, or some other person of color, the police would be standing on my head and shouting stop resisting because I writhe in pain of being stood on.
