WHITE PRIVILEGE IS REAL!

YOU CAN'T FIX STUPID!

With the Blogger interface, it is getting harder to make blog posts. I am not kidding.

The way they rolled this interface out maybe the death knell for the once beloved media platform.

I am not going to lie, this is frustrating.

Another thing is the continuous grand juries in the United States refusing to hold bad cops accountable for their actions.

I am really getting fed up with this type of justice. The police find it to be open season on Black men and women. It will be a deadly year for law enforcement. Trust me, for every Black man or woman killed by the police, some maniac will take revenge on the police and politicians who support the Blue Lives Movement.

Cops aren't born blue. They are regular human beings with a badge and gun. They have to follow the same rules as the ordinary people. But somehow, murder is only applied to those who kill cops or ordinary people.

I am serious, for every bad cop, there will be a dead cop.

The decision to not criminally charge the Rochester Police officers for killing Daniel Prude will lead to more protests.

There's protests in the city of Rochester after the state prosecutor found the seven cops not liable for the death of a mentally ill man who died in their custody. Daniel Prude was a 41-year old Black man who was physically restrained by the cops. 

The cops placed a spit hood over his head and he would soon die from asphyxia. The hood was like a noose over his head. The cops claim that he was erratic because he was on PCP and he was naked.

The incident happened nearly one year ago and the video evidence was not seen until September 2020.

The Rochester Police feared the video would trigger violent protests. So in the wake of the George Floyd murder, the pressure from Prude's family forced the agency to release the video.

They said he was lynched. The cops said that was not the case. 

Rochester mayor Lovely Warren, her police chief and Gov. Andrew Cuomo faced a backlash over the video. Joe Prude said that incident towards his brother was a "cold-blooded" murder.

A grand jury has decided that the cops were not liable for Prude's death and it led to massive protests.

Soon after this happened, hundreds gathered at the very spot where he encountered police last March.

Like they did so many times last year, they marched. First they called for change along Jefferson Avenue. Then they rallied outside the Child Street substation before marching on Interstate 490, at one point prompting closure of a portion of the westbound lanes before arriving at the Public Safety Building.

The cops lynched Daniel Prude.

New York state Attorney General Letitia James spent hours at Aenon Baptist Church Wednesday morning, meeting with faith leaders from across the city.

Fred Johnson, the minister at First Genesis Baptist Church, was one of them.

“We were all extremely disappointed in the grand jury results, so we spoke to those frustrations and where we go from here," said Johnson.

He says the discussion focused on what led to the grand jury's decision and how to move forward from it, both by helping the community heal and by creating impactful change.

“She shared some initiatives underway from the state perspective and several initiatives that may be of interest to faith communities in this area," said Johnson.

Alton Byrd, who was also in attendance, says the same rhetoric about reform needs to change.

“One of the questions I asked goes beyond defunding the police and stuff like that. We need a complete change. We need a change on the number of Blacks that get hired during a recruiting session and a change on holding those accountable when things go wrong," said Byrd. “That’s our next step now: how do we present change and really do something? All of these meetings the last 25-50 years are no exhausting to me.”

Rev. Lewis Stewart, the president of the United Christian Leadership Ministry, says the attorney general also revealed the make up of the grand jury.

“It was 16 white people, 3 blacks and one Hispanic," he said.

Stewart says that alone is troubling and needs to be fixed.

“I would daresay we need a more of a diverse configuration than anything else, in more juries across the state," he said.
