    No - the exact opposite. I am calling for unarmed, non-violent African Americans to be treated like white murderers are by the police every single day.https://twitter.com/JerkyLeBoeuf/status/1021698319922343936 …

    So are you calling for police to brutally beat up EVERYONE now? Police Brutality (and police criminality) affects everyone. YES, it affects the Black community more. But FAR from exclusively so. This is beneath you. Don't let yourself be led by hate. Get your priorities straight!

        Boy! People on social media need so much explanation. Comprehension level is extremely low and not many get your point Shaun. Hate these word twisting. They are quick to respond but slow to read and process. Then respond.

        So, asking for fair treatment of POCs translates to white people as asking for white people to be brutalized by police? How do you penetrate that ideology?

        Shaun, you'll have to spell it out for them in large letters every single time. They think seeing monsters like this guy or Roof being placidly taken into custody proves something while African Americans being beaten/murdered for minor infractions does so as well.

        Okay. I'm sympatico to your efforts, read you all the time, agree with you 95% of the time, and totally see why this is infuriating to you (it is to me, too). But I'm just urging you, due to your prominence, to think about how you react PUBLICLY to some of these outrages.

        That will never happen...cause that means that the police and this country would have to admit that the police is here to protect white Americans self worth and ignore an destroy everyone else

        They just don't get it. Black people are not treated in a calm and respectful manner when accosted by police. #NIAWILSON

        Each police officer is an individual . Thus I see your point but the best we can do is reward those that use peace rather than succumb to power and vengeance through violence
