What Happened To Daunte Wright?

Daunte Wright was killed by the law after a traffic stop. Tensions again boil in Minneapolis-St. Paul. This comes almost a year after George Floyd's death.
 

BLACK LIVES MATTER

PROTECT BLACK WOMEN! 

STOP ASIAN HATE!

PROTECT AAPI WOMEN!

WEAR A DAMN MASK! SAVE A LIFE! TRUST SCIENCE AND MEDICAL EXPERTS! THE CORONAVIRUS PANDEMIC IS FUCKING REAL!

GET VACCINATED! IF THE OPPORTUNITY TO GET THE VACCINES ARE AVAILABLE, GET IT WHILE IT'S STILL FREE! THE MEDICAL EXPERTS SAY THE VACCINES DO WORK AND IT REDUCES THE RISK OF CORONAVIRUS INFECTION.

HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE NOW! VOTE THESE DUMBASS LAWMAKERS OUT OF OFFICE! STOP SUPPORTING ALL FORMS OF EXTREMISM!

GIVE PUERTO RICO, GUAM, AMERICAN SAMOA, U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS AND NORTHERN MARIANA ISLANDS THE RIGHT TO VOTE IN THE U.S. PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS!

GOOGLE'S BLOGGER IS STRAIGHT UP TRASH! THE BLOGGER INTERFACE IS A TOTAL DISASTER AND IT'S RIDICULOUS!

WHITE PRIVILEGE IS REAL! IT'S "SUIT AND TIE" WHITE SUPREMACY ON TELEVISION, RADIO, THE INTERNET AND AMERICAN POLICY!

YOU CAN'T FIX STUPID!

BAD COPS WILL GET GOOD COPS KILLED!

Daunte's mother is furious that the Brooklyn Center cops killed her son.

The latest police shooting in the United States. Again, a never ending theme here on Journal de la Reyna is the “What Happened To” postings. I often do these postings in regards to the latest incident involving a person of color being either killed by gun or racially motivated violence. 

Everyday, we still see these incidents of people of color being shot and killed by the police. Time after time, law enforcement seem to be never held accountable for shooting Black men and women. It's always the cop's word over the dead body.

I hope that President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris work on police reform.  

These stories involve police shootings in which people of color are either injured or killed.

It appears there's going to be unrest in Minneapolis-St. Paul again. With tensions rising with the trial of that former cop who placed his knee on the neck of George Floyd, folks ain't taking this shit anymore.

How can a traffic stop end in a fatal shooting?

It appears that 20-year old, Daunte Wright was pulled over by the Brooklyn Center Police. Apparently he had minor misdemeanor warrants. Chief Tim Gannon of the Brooklyn Center Police Department said that a cop shot and killed Wright after a traffic violation and discovery the driver had a warrant for his arrest.

Tensions are high in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area.

As the police tried to detain Daunte, he stepped back into his car, at which point an officer shot him.

The man's car then traveled for several block and struck another vehicle, after which the police and medical workers pronounced him dead. Gannon did not give any information on the officer who fired or say how severe the crash had been, through the passengers in the vehicle in the other car were not injured. The chief said that the cops' body cameras and dash cameras were on during the shooting.

Katie Wright, the mother of Daunte said that her son had been driving a car that his family just gave him two weeks ago and that he called her as he was being pulled over.

Wright said that she urged Daunte to stay on the phone with her as she was giving out the vehicle's insurance information. 

"Then I heard the police officer come to the window and say, 'Put the phone down and get out the car,'" she said.

"He said they pulled him over because he had air fresheners hanging from his rearview window," Wright added.
Police using tear gas on protesters.

Wright heard "scuffling" and an officer telling her son not to run. Then, she said, someone hung up the phone. When she called back, her son's girlfriend answered and told her that he had been shot.

His mother added that her son had been driving with his girlfriend when he was shot. The police said that the woman in the vehicle was hurt in the crash but the injuries are non life-threatening. 

The shooting ignited fury among those living in the metroplex. 
Another iconic image for the history books.

Tim Walz, the embattled Democratic-Farmer-Labor (Democratic Party) governor has issued the National Guard and Minnesota State Patrol to control the streets. Walz, President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), Sen. Tina Smith (D-MN), Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Rep. Betty McCollum (D-MN), Rep. Dean Phillips (D-MN) and Rep. Tom Emmer (R-MN) will hear from their constituents. 

The police have used tear gas and rubber bullets to break up crowds which is causing more tension.

Many see this as a double standard. Of course, the insurrection happened in January 2021 and a bunch of Washed Up 45's supporters managed to invade the U.S. Capitol and occupy it for three hours before the law disperse the crowd. 

It will never stop.

What is the most common tactic of racial profiling Black motorists?
Air fresheners in the rearview window.
Missing a license plate.
A malfunctioning license plate light.
Being seen in a bad neighborhood.
Looking a police officer when they pass by.
Walking in a suburban neighborhood.
Hanging near a corner or loitering around a store.
Driving a fancy vehicle.

It never happens in your community....... Until it does! Every community in the United States will eventually have a legacy. A legacy of tragedy. Gun violence and COVID-19 will affect your town, your family and your life. So I don't want to hear that bullshit about how this gun reform is taking away your rights. I don't want to hear that protesting against police killing people of color is hate on cops in general. I don't want to hear talk about the coronavirus being a myth. I don't want hear folks say this is not white privilege. I don't want to hear folks say masks impede their freedoms. I don't want to hear the shit about guns saving lives. These incidents are a tragic part of American history.

FOR EVERY BAD COP, THERE WILL BE A DEAD COP!

I DON'T BELIEVE EVERYTHING ON THE INTERNET OR THE COP'S VERSION.

THERE IS NO GOD!

GOD IS NOT FIXING THIS!

FUCK YOUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS!

We haven't forgotten about the many mass shootings in the United States. COVID-19 doesn't stop individuals from picking up firearms and killing others.

The website Officer Down is a memorial to those who were killed in the line of duty. Those who don't get their names mentioned in the junk food media. Also the website the National Gun Violence Memorial also keeps record of the many individuals killed by gun violence. 

GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE PROBLEM IN THE UNITED STATES!
