        honestly I hope this discussion not only goes to talk about his race but how the disabled are frequently the targets of police brutality.

        This is actually unfortunately not the first time I've heard of a deaf person being harmed by police for not being able to hear orders.

        not just frequently. up to 50% of those murdered by the police are disabled. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/amp/half-people-killed-police-suffer-mental-disability-report-n538371 …

        unfortunately, much of the resistance does not include disability and disabled civil rights in their "intersectional" politics

        👮🏻captain on cops: “They very well could not have heard everyone yelling around them.” The irony. To defend this saying THEY couldn't hear.

        Why were they called in the first place? I'm very confused how an unarmed man, sitting on his own porch, became a threat in the first place

        With the driver still inside of the truck. I found the info. A second cop showed up and shot him within a minute of arriving.
