    Listen - I don't want the police to shoot Jerry. I just know they would've shot Jamal. A lot. You know it. I know it. No question about it.https://twitter.com/shaunking/status/1076887954805665792 …

    Jerry resists arrest. Jerry steals officers baton. Beats cops with their batons. Steals their police car. Police never fire a single shot at Jerry. No stun gun. Nothing. American police know how to use restraint. They do. For some reason it’s just always with Jerry. pic.twitter.com/9lPd6cFQ6s

        There is a female cop in this video. There are studies, when women officers are present there is less violent confrontations. No one got shot here. Maybe that’s the solution, more women officers, a different approach that might just work.

        I have no doubt they would've shot Jamal, Jamarion, Jaquan, Javonte, Jermaine, Jarod, Jakobi, JuJu, Jalen, Jarome, and the countless other black males who names begin with J!

        Eh probably not so much as the others. Note the lack of arrests or aversion to arrest SE asian nail shop owners when they brutally assault black people. There's even a case where they attacked a young white woman & the response was dreadful.

        Depends if Woo had been to the beach recently or not. Any level of melanin passed cafe au lait level seems to set off the popo agression glands.

        And we know some police officers would’ve been fired had they NOT shot Jamal.

        Jamal wouldn't have even gotten past step 1: resisting arrest.

        Jamal could be in a suit no tickets no expired plates car in pristine condition and he was still be asked out of his car.
