Why do people want justice for police killing Black men, if Black people not go snitch on people for killing them?

Black people kill each other all the time, and they don’t snitch on each other. But, as soon as a cop killed them. They want justice. How come they don’t want justice when someone who isn’t a cop killed them?

Emotional... traumatic wounds control and they get propagated generations.

The issue is that in recent history many black people, especially in USA were abused by the white power structure in the west (USA/UK French colonies). In recent memory that script is played out in the media because it triggers a deep set of fear and anger.. which is what the media wants... a reaction... to sell their product (eyeballs on the page/screen/clicks). Although true there are likely biases and issues in black culture vs police, that isn't the whole story.

They are sensitive to being abused by the system, because that WAS done before.

They are not emotionally triggered in the same way when it's "commoner" crime.

In other words, they are living out of a wound until they by their own effort are freed from that wound and no longer living there, emotionally.

It's simply human trauma. To be somewhat fair, the idiots of the past that abused them (white people per se) are to blame for starting the mess.

Thus, think about what traumas you are creatin today, how you are helping others heal from trauma, and do your best to fgure out how to navigate to a better place. It is very difficult to do.

And thus, a variety of social reactions... e. g. backing away from intervening and disciplining black crime, re-segregation. This is negative for black people and they know it.

The liberal narrative is that white people the oppressors and the cops are Nazis. People were polled how many black people are killed by police every year. Most said it was 11,000. The real answer was 8.

Thanks for the MHO😎

I didn’t really give you a MHO, but you’re welcome.

Have you considered they want justice for both, but one may be easier to solve, or must be solved first before the other can be properly addressed?

[LinkxPeach]

No, but Black people kill each other way more than the police killed them. So, that problem should be addressed first.

[Opinion Owner]

How would that be fixed without fixing the problem with the organization who most directly addresses it: the police?

[LinkxPeach]

Bring the cops to justice, then?

[Opinion Owner]

Okay.

[KostasKouvalis]

It has to do with motive. When a cop, especially a White cop kills them, they think it's racially motivated. But when they kill each other, it's for survival and respect so it's not as bad.

Damn. Winner! 🏆 ✌🏻

the "police killing black people" narrative is a convenient one for criminals and criminal apologists to get behind

[princeofromance]

The police brutality in this country is out of control.

Because they just want to use it to their advantage. Nobody cares about George Floyd.
