The city of Cincinnati is preparing for potential unrest. The Hamilton County prosecutor Joe Deters will retry ex-cop Ray Tensing for the murder of Sam DuBose. He blamed the jury's willingness to accused the victim of the shooting. They were more worried about how many baby mamas Sam DuBose had then why did Tensing bucked him without an ounce of remorse.
The last trial was deadlocked. The nearly White jury wasn't willing to sent Tensing to the iron college and it led to mistrial.
Deters said issues of race, DuBose's criminal background and lifestyle (he had 13 kids by at least seven women) "absolutely crept into the jury room" even though Shanahan banned testimony about DuBose's criminal and health records.
Deters said the jury of 10 whites and two blacks was 10-2 in favor of voluntary manslaughter on the third night of deliberations, Friday, Nov. 11. After two hours of deliberations Saturday morning, the 24th and 25th hours over four days, Shanahan decided the jury was hopelessly deadlocked and called it off.
After saying he interviewed half of the jurors, Deters said some were sympathetic to Tensing, who teared up on the witness stand, and were considering punishment, which they shouldn't have done.
"There's no question that issues were being discussed in there that should not have been discussed," Deters said.
Facing pressure Deters had no choice but to reexamine the case against Tensing.
Deters said pressure from DuBose's family, city council, ministers, demonstrators and Black Lives Matter Cincinnati had no influence in his decision to retry Tensing. He said he did what he had promised to do -- meet with his assistant prosecutors, talk to jurors and analyze the "likelihood of success at trial."
Deters is blamed himself for not giving a stronger cross-examination of Tensing and a better presentation in closing arguments.
The mostly White jury and the Ohio judge declared a mistrial in the case of Ray Tensing, the former University of Cincinnati Police officer accused of murdering motorist Sam DuBose.
The jury was unable to reach a verdict for Tensing who was charged with voluntary manslaughter.
DuBose was being pulled over for missing a front plate. The incident was caught on body camera. It shows Tensing at point blank range shot DuBose in the face before the car accelerated and crashed.
Tensing tried to get his fellow officers to lie for him and he concocted this notion that "he feared for his life" when DuBose closed the door and accelerated the car. He tried to make DuBose's criminal past an issue. They tried to use his 13 children as an excuse for bad behavior.
The jury of 10 White people and two Blacks had a task of weighing whether the shooting was a justifiable use of force or Tensing feared for his life.
Cincinnati's mayor John Cranley knows the bubble is brewing. He is none to happy about the election. He is expecting the tension to increase knowing that Tensing is out on bail.
Now Republican prosecutor Joe Deters will now figure out if another trial could go forth. It would be highly unlikely Tensing could be convicted. If the jury actually convicted him, he would have 15 to LIFE in the iron college.
This incident keeps reminding me about how police officers are allowed to get away with murder.
They can lie about the incident, play the victim and make the victim the one on trial.
Of course, in 2001, Timothy Thomas was gunned down by Stephen Roach in the dark alleys of Cincinnati. Roach was spooked by Thomas running through the alleys. He shot him on sight.
It sparked a week of unrest n the city and a Black economic boycott.
Killer wore Confederate shirt when he killed unarmed motorist. Ray Tensing is a former University of Cincinnati cop charged with murder of Sam DuBose.
Bombshell. Ray Tensing was wearing The Losing Side of The Civil War T-shirt under his police uniform. The fired University of Cincinnati cop is facing murder charges that could put his ass in the iron college for LIFE.
Tensing is innocent until proven guilty.
The killer wore this shirt when he fatally shot Sam DuBose after a traffic shot. The t-shirt was submitted by Cincinnati police investigator Jimmy Nghia Duc Pham.
The shirt had "Great Smoky Mountains and it was presented during the crime scene investigation.
This shirt was worn by ex-cop who bucked Sam DuBose.
Pham testified that investigators found a jar containing marijuana within the Honda Accord that DuBose was in. Tensing contends that he was being dragged by DuBose.
DuBose was unarmed at the time.
Tensing is trying the use-of-force excuse to justify the shooting. He said that he feared for his life.
More damning evidence came forth. Tensing was the leader of citations and arrest. Tensing had stopped more Black and Hispanic motorists and pedestrians than normal. About 75% of the stops were Black and 15% Hispanic.
Tensing claims that he's doing his job for public safety. But one is questioning why is his citations largely rounded towards Blacks.
Now you probably think like me. I bet you money, he'll get off. He will say that DuBose's history was reason. The law will use Jedi mind tricks to sway a jury into believing the cop had a benefit of the doubt.
An Ohio private Catholic college is facing a mountain of controversy. Some of the students were upset over a social media posting of a White woman in blackface mocking #BlackLivesMatter and Sam Dubose. There was also a picture circulating of a Trump supporter on campus with a skeleton figure dressing in African dashiki gear hanging by a noose.
As the former University of Cincinnati officer Ray Tensing heads to preliminary for capital murder, the junk food media is covering the trial.
Tensing is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
Tensing is using the "dangerous threat" and demands the Hamilton County prosecutor Joe Deters release Dubose's criminal history.
Well over at the nearby Xavier University a photo circulated across the social media of a student getting her face painted black with the words "Who needs white when black lives matter."
It was posted on social media's Snapchat. Then it found its way towards Facebook and one of the students Maia Manney took outrage to this. That woman lives in my dorm hall, she said to the junk food media.
"I took it to my hall director and one of the leaders for diversity and inclusion. (I'm also friends with her on Facebook so if you see this Mel... HI 😃😆), Manney wrote.
"But Xavier students be aware of your surroundings especially you POC, as recently many situation like this have been happening."
School chancellor Michael Graham said that this is deeply troubling. He may put the students involved on ice if they are found to be responsible for this incident.
Pretty stupid...
There was another incident at the Catholic school. There was an image of skeleton dressed in a dashiki with a noose around its neck.
The image was inside a window of a Trump supporter. They had a flag of the Republican nominee on its banter.
To the Xavier Community,
I am outraged and deeply troubled by recent racist images connected to Xavier students. Racist actions are unacceptable on our campus, and we have mechanism to respond in a responsible and thoughtful manner. When one of use falls short, we all fall short.
Many of our students, of all races, are in pain over this. Steps are being taken to make sure that all members of the Xavier community know that we must act with integrity, justice and generosity, in solidarity for and with each other. Please be assured this is being addressed on campus through a variety of channels.
I will personally continue to stay on top of this and keep you updated.
The police union is upset and they want Colin Kaepernick cut.
Colin Kaepernick made it clear. Until something is done about police brutality, he will not take a stand for the national anthem. Now the police unions and junk food media are threatening retaliation against him and the San Francisco 49ers.
The police unions representing Santa Clara, San Francisco and Oakland have fired back at the protest by saying that if Kaepernick continues his stand, they'll boycott the events. The wrote a letter demanding that he be punished for his actions. CBS San Francisco reports that a letter from the Santa Clara Police Officers Association sent to the 49ers was obtained Friday.
The union doesn't mince words when it came to Kaepernick.
Through its president, Martin Halloran, he wrote this letter denouncing the NFL quarterback.
"I only wish Mr. Kaepernick could see the emotional and psychological challenges that our officers face following a fatal encounter. Some are so affected they never return to the streets. In short, Mr. Kaepernick has embarrassed himself, the 49er organization, and the NFL based on a false narrative and misinformation that lacks any factual basis.
Perhaps, Mr. Kaepernick could comment on the murder of 40 police officers in the United States in the past few months, or the assaults perpetrated on over 100,000 law enforcement officers in the past year. Perhaps he could lend his commentary to the over 8,000 murders that African Americans inflicted on one another in 2015. The law enforcement community cannot be continuously blamed for all of society's problems, including racial divide, in our country. It's isn't fair and it isn't true."
It also criticized what it called anti-police statements made by Kaepernick, calling them “insulting, inaccurate and completely unsupported by any facts.”
The scandal involving the San Francisco Police is real.
Back in April, an explosive story about the police department came to light. Some of the officers were saying that minorities were "barbarians", "cockroaches" and other offensive racial slurs.
A handful of officers were immediately fired out the cannon.
These incidents led San Francisco chief Greg Suhr being fired out the cannon. It led to the dismissal of criminal cases and a review of police department by the federal government.
So don't tell Colin Kaepernick that he's delusional. He sees it for himself in the deaths of many minorities at the hands of police.
Here's some news from South Carolina. The officer who fired upon Zachary Hammond was fired out the cannon. Mark Tiller was loaded in the cannon and fired out. The chief of Seneca Police said that the issue is personal and he can't comment on the situation at this time. The feds are looking into the matter.
And it doesn't stop in South Carolina. The Richland County deputy Ben Fields is spared from a federal indictment on the brutal takedown of a teenager in a classroom. He made the news last year when he took down a young girl who was refuse to leave the classroom.
And yes, there's officer Michael Slager, the former North Charleston officer who fired on Walter Scott after he broke free from his Taser. The officer is facing a federal indictment on civil rights as well as a state murder charge that could the death card on him.
I can't forget that former University of Cincinnati officer Ray Tensing's attorneys are trying to obtain criminal records from Sam DuBose. The shooting of DuBose after a routine traffic stop has Tensing facing a murder charge. They are trying to taint DuBose as the aggressor in this encounter.
By the way, Kaepernick will donate his year contract to charities and groups to help people of color.
He slammed the junk food media for making this more than what he's concerned about. He said that he's loves America and supports the military, but he is tired of the junk food media ignoring these real issues for trivial nonsense and gotcha games.
There's a reason for Colin Kaepernick's protest. And it's growing! If Muhammad Ali was alive today, wondering what he would say about this?
Ohio's Attorney General Mike DeWine confirms that he's in the running for the Republican nomination for the state's governor.
DeWine believes that he could win the state given the "oh so great" job of his boss John Kasich.
Kasich, the failed presidential candidate is currently the governor of the state. He's a conservative who pretends to be a moderate. He so far signed off controversial laws that go after unions and abortions. He's so far leading at the bottom in job creation.
DeWine is controversial. He held back evidence in the controversial shootings of Malissa Williams, Timothy Russell, John Crawford and Tamir Rice.
Timothy Russell picks up Malissa Williams from an area known for prostitution. The East Cleveland and Cleveland Police gave chase to them, They took off a broke down vehicle and it made a popping sound. The officers believed they were firing at them. They cornered them at a middle school and they let the bullets fly. Over 137 slugs hit the car and one officer jumped on the vehicle shooting into them. One of the officer Michael Belo was charged for the crime but managed to beat the case. He was fired out the cannon along with eight others. The family of Russell and Williams sued the cities of Cleveland and East Cleveland, the officers and Mike DeWine for withholding evidence.
John Crawford was in a Dayton area Walmart when he picked up a pellet gun. A man called 911 saying that Crawford was pointing the gun at people. The Beavercreek Police immediately came and stop Crawford. The officers claimed that they gave verbal warning and then they shot him. It turns out that in the video, Crawford was on the phone with the pellet gun lowered and the officer who fired upon him didn't give ample notice to drop. The officer Sean Williams is still in the freezer pending a federal probe on his routine. The Crawford family sued Beavercreek, the officer and DeWine for withholding the video.
Tamir Rice was in a Cleveland park playing with a pellet gun. He was minding his business when a man called 911 saying that there's a man in a park pointing a gun at people. The Cleveland Police immediately came and stopped Rice. The officers claimed that they gave verbal warning and then they shot him. It turns out that in the video, Rice was caught off guard by the officers. They pulled up right on him and within a few seconds he was shot in the stomach. Rice was pronounced dead the next day. The family claims that the officer Tim Loehmann was untrained and reckless. They sued the city of Cleveland, the officer, and DeWine for withholding evidence.
DeWine is a piece of shit. He won't prosecute incompetent police officers. He will continue to allow reckless actions to happen. And he wants Ohio Republicans to know that he's tough on crime.
Nope.
Right now he doesn't want to accept refugees from Syria. He sued the government over marriage. He sued the government over President Barack Obama's immigration and trans protection law. He also is pushing for Ohio to have voting rights restricted.
Even his role in the mass shooting in Waverly, Ohio is inept. The Rowden family was murdered in cold blood. There' were allegations of marijuana grow operation and a professional hit was put out on a handful of family members. DeWine can't even determine who's actually responsible for the callous murder of innocent human beings.
DeWine who has ties to the Dayton metro area was a state legislator, U.S. representative and U.S. senator. As a senator, DeWine was a yes man for Bush. He got his ass sent back to Ohio after taking a beating from Sherrod Brown, a congressman from Lorain, Ohio.
Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) is being floated as a potential veep for either Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders.
Cincinnati fired top cop after allegations of misuse of power came forth.
The Cincinnati city manager Harry Black loaded the chief of the police in and let the cannon fire.
Jeffery Blackwell was fired out the cannon Tuesday. He was given a vote of no confidence.
Cincinnati seen an increase in gun crimes. There's a rise in property thief. The junk food media gave negative coverage to three events under his watch. The riot at Fountain Square, the death of Officer Sonny Kim and the Sam DuBose shooting were the factors to his cannon firing. The city leaders said that he has lacks the motivation of leadership.
John Cranley was not a happy camper to hear that the city wasn't prepared during the All Star Game.
Matter of fact, Blackwell was embarrassing the city. It's almost similar to the antics of Milwaukee County sheriff David Clarke. The antics were so bad, cops were waiting for that cannon firing.
Armed with two blistering reports on the department's morale and the chief's leadership, City Manager Harry Black portrayed the chief as a poor manager who belittled his staff and broke department rules. He said Blackwell badgered underlings for free tickets to sporting events, improperly approved overtime for his favorite officers and treated other staff members so badly they sought psychological counseling.
Through it all, Black said, the chief tried to burnish his own image at the expense of his officers and his department, most notably when officers accused him this summer of stopping to take selfies with passersby during the funeral procession of fallen officer Sonny Kim.
Blackwell threatens to retaliate against Cranley and Black by filing a lawsuit against the city.
Eric Garner, Michael Brown, Tamir Rice, John Crawford and Trayvon Martin were killed by law enforcement. Their names became symbolic with the Black Lives Matter Movement.
We reflect on the need for better policing in the wake of three high profile incidents where the unarmed or unintended were gunned down by the law.
July 17 - Eric Garner was a father of six who lived in Staten Island. He was accused of selling cigarettes on a corner when the NYPD confronted him. While being filmed on camera, one of the officer placed a restraining hold around his neck. Eric would utter the words "I Can't Breathe".
As they take him down on the ground, the law was shocked to find out he wasn't breathing. They would call for an emergency crew. He would die at a local hospital.
This officers Daniel Pantaleo and Justin Damico were let off the hook. The prosecutor Daniel M. Donovan, Jr. found that the officers didn't do anything that caused Eric's death.
Donovan, a Republican went on to become a U.S. Representative in a special election.
The family was awarded $6 million in wrongful death lawsuit.
August 5 - John Crawford was a father of two. He lived in Hamilton, Ohio. He was shopping in Walmart in Beavercreek, a suburb outside of Dayton. He was on the phone when he picked up an opened air rifle. While on surveillance camera, you see him walking through the aisles on the phone with the air rifle, A man calls 911 claiming that John was pointing a AR 15 at shoppers. Beavercreek police arrive on the scene. They enter through the garden center and without proper warning fired two shots at John. John yelled to the officers it's not a real gun.
As they take him down to the ground, the law was shocked to see he wasn't holding a real rifle. They would call for an emergency crew. He would die at a local hospital.
The officer who fired his weapon Sean Williams is in the freezer. He was let off the hook when the Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine found that the officer did nothing wrong. The grand jury said that even though Ohio is an open carry state, John caused his own death.
DeWine is a Republican who sides with the law on most issues.
The family sued Williams, DeWine, Beavercreek and Walmart for wrongful death.
August 9 - Michael Brown was a teenager who lived in Ferguson, Missouri, a suburb outside of St. Louis. He was walking down the street when an officer stopped him. The officer claimed that Michael was acting menacing. There was a struggle and the officer fired his weapon. Out of twelve shots, six of them hit Michael.
As the officer takes him down, he realized that Michael was unarmed. He would call for backup and then an emergency crew. Michael died on the scene.
The officer at first said that he stopped Michael for being in the street. But he would change his story saying that he was told of a robbery and the suspects were nearby. Michael was on surveillance allegedly stealing a cigarillo from QuikTrip.
This event sparked unrest. The QuikTrip that Michael visited was burned down.
The grand jury found that the officer Darren Wilson didn't commit a criminal act and he was spared trial.
That launched another night of unrest. The rioting cost millions, people were injured.
Michael Brown's family is suing Wilson and Ferguson.
Wilson would resign from the force and go into hiding.
You notice that these events happened one year ago. These events have sparked the Black Lives Matter Movement.
Black Lives Matter is an American activist grassroots movement that can be traced back to the July 2013 acquittal of George Zimmerman in the Florida shooting death of African-American teen Trayvon Martin.
It received fresh impetus from the 2014 shooting of Michael Brown, an African-American teen, and the death of Eric Garner, as well as the acquittals of both of the officers who killed them. The Black Lives Matter movement also speaks out and organizes against police brutality against African-Americans in the United States.
Some of the unarmed African-Americans who died at the hands of law enforcement have had their deaths protested by the movement, including Tamir Rice, Eric Harris, Walter Scott, and Freddie Gray (which sparked the 2015 Baltimore protests).
The movement was co-founded by three black activists: Alicia Garza, Patrisse Cullors, and Opal Tometi.
The shooting of Walter Scott by a white policeman was recorded by a bystander, who contacted a local activist involved with Black Lives Matter; they, in turn, contacted Scott's family to take possession of the video. Soon after the video was released to the public, the officer was arrested and charged with murder. The case is pending.
When you look at how many officer involved shootings in which lead to the death of unarmed suspects, you might want to question why do this stuff continue to happen despite the outcry from Trayvon Martin.
So many names in the news being killed by gun violence.
Shame we're still not making progress on gun control. The United State leads in gun violence.
Over 4,000 people were injured by gun violence. About 2,400 of them died because of gun violence.
Gun violence is more of a threat than terrorism. The discussion is often muted because of Republicans, some spineless Democrats and the NRA.
I am a gun owner and I am a voter. But seriously, we need to do something about this.
When will the next shooting occur. Will the junk food media follow this shooting like they've done with John Crawford, Michael Brown and Tamir Rice?
When will we hold those responsible in law enforcement for unintended deaths of unarmed citizens such as Eric Garner and Sandra Bland?
When will we finally recognized that everyone killed by gun violence matters?
World News Today send our condolences to the families of Eric Garner, John Crawford and Michael Brown. We send our condolences to everyone who died in gun violence.
Some disgraced lawman became a conservative agitator who runs his mouth with accusations. He is trying to smear Sam DuBose with stories that aren't proven by the prosecutor.
Smear campaign from the racist right!
The racist right rears its ugly head in the shooting death of Sam DuBose. When unarmed Black suspects lose their lives in police custody, conservatives automatically blame the victim. They want to make the issue about the victim and not the officers who allowed a death to occur in their precinct.
Sam was stopped by this cop working for the University of Cincinnati. He claimed that he had a missing license plate. The stop was elevated when Ray Tensing ordered him out the car. Sam questioned his actions. Like most motorists, you have a right to question why you're being detained without probable cause. So when Tensing pull the door open, Sam tried to close it. Then as he moved the door, the car revs up and that's when Tensing uses his service weapon in a deadly shooting.
Tensing shot DuBose in the head. It immediately killed him. Tensing and two other officers would concoct this lie saying that there was a struggle for the firearm and he tried to drag him.
If the law said Sam had weapons, cash or drugs in his ride, why wasn't it filed in the report? Will that come in a document drop during the pretrial hearing of murder suspect Ray Tensing.
The body camera evidence said something totally different. And now that Tensing is being served with an indictment for murder. After he posted a get out free card, his defenders are out in full swing saying that Sam had criminal intent.
So this nobody who was an ex-NYPD detective goes to the junk food media and racist right outlets with this latest bombshell. He said that the law found two pounds of weed and a bundle of cash in the vehicle.
Where did he get his bombshell from?
This asshat claims he got his "sources" from the law.
So why wasn't this in the University of Cincinnati police report?
Ray Tensing was trying to cover up a criminal act. He faces trial for the murder of an unarmed motorist.
Uh, because you liberals don't have the facts like we have! We obtained evidence. We're just waiting for the moment to leak it to the junk food media. This is what I'm expecting to hear from this concern troll.
This disgusting racist asshat John Cardillo made up some claims that officers found two pounds of marijuana and thousands of dollars in cash in his car. Cardillo called the law to confirm these new facts with the public information office of the Cincinnati Police Department, and they did not deny them. Neither did the prosecutor’s office when Cardillo contacted them.
So what?
Does it disqualify the fact that Tensing committed a criminal act?
See Cardillo is some agitator on Florida AM agitation. He's a nobody just like Colin Flaherty, Charles C. Johnson and Jesse Lee Peterson. A bunch of racial extremists who have no real reason to exist.
They only get their traction on shows nobody watches.
This racial asshat can make accusations and the like. It doesn't explain why Ray Tensing put a bullet in Sam's head. Another thing, Sam was unarmed and that bottle was perfume.
Oh by the way, this is the moron who went to social media to post him point a barrel at his webcam.
He was criticizing the BlackLivesMatter protesters crash the Sunday brunch.
Here's an example of what I've put together.
This racist asshat Cardillo with a firearm next to my former best friend who is an asshat in his own right. See a difference in who's more menacing!
Here's the video of this asshat on Dr. Drew on Call.
The former University of Cincinnati cop got 10% of the $1 million. Ray Tensing's dad put his home on the chop block to get him that get out free card.
Tensing clammed up after pleading not guilty to the murder of Sam DuBose. He almost got away with it if it wasn't for Hamilton County prosecutor Joe Deters.
Deters, is a Republican who often sides with the law on most cases. This event was cut and dry for him. Deters said that Tensing had no business ever being a cop.....Ouch!
Tensing's partners are also under investigation for lying on their police reports. Philip Kidd and David Lindenschmidt are off the hook for murder but they may face a cannon firing.
They are in the freezer after they told the chief that they actually saw Sam DuBose put up a fight with Tensing. In reality, it was cordial stop where it elevated. Sam questioned why he had to exit his vehicle. Tensing grabbed the door, and Sam held the door. He rev up the vehicle after he grabbed the door, that when he put his hand inside the vehicle and then in a few seconds, he grabbed his service weapon and let the slugs fly. Sam with a slug in head was killed immediately on impact, the car would speed towards a pole where it crashes.
A code 99 drop.
As Tensing is running over with service weapon drawn, he concocts this narrative that he was dragged by the suspect. He said that suspect had an open container and was belligerent.
Kidd and Lindeschmidt said we'll back you up! They seen it all.
These two were involved in a deadly encounter with a man who died in their custody. A man with mental issues was given a curb side toe jam by these two. They lied on their report that Kelly Brinson was being a threat. They put the Taser on him and he would die of cardiac arrest.
They lied about this encounter when Brinson's family asked Deters to push for that video.
Deters said those two were idiots. The possibility of these two getting served up is unlikely, but it will probably mean the end of the careers as lawmen at least at the University of Cincinnati Police.
So when you look at this in the perspective, I've told you that that law does lie when they make a traffic stop. They lie when they issue a citation. They lie when they do a search of your vehicle.
They lie when they use force to restrain. They lie when they use deadly force when using a service weapon.
Tensing had a previous encounter with a motorist and his passenger.
Demetrius Pace told the junk food media that Tensing was a total dick to him. He knew that the law targeted his cousin Sexton Henley on some bullshit. Sexton had minor damage to his bumper. So Tensing and a few other officers balked at Pace and his cousin.
Demetrius whips out the camera and records Tensing trying to aggressively demand him to reveal his his name. He was detaining them for no reason. They record this. Demetrius continue to pressure for the supervisor. It took over 10 minutes before they at least got a citation. No physical violence.
Demetrius just made it more embarrassing for Tensing.
This type of conduct is the reason why Ray Tensing has no business ever being a cop.
Tensing is innocent until proven guilty. If found guilty of murder he face LIFE in the iron college.
In the wake of high profile incidents involving police, concern trolls believe its the victim's fault for their deaths.
Okay, here we go again. In the wake of high profile incidents in which police faced harsh criticism for the deaths of people in their custody, the concern trolls come out with the defense of the law.
They head to the social media and blogs such as our and leave their word vomit.
I would suspect these trolls as members of law enforcement or individuals who have ties to those in law enforcement. These trolls would post nonsense like what you're reading below.
Again, I shrink it down so you will have to have a magnifying glass to read it.
Anonymous said... Only in a world as profound sick and decadent as ours would saying police officers - dedicated to upholding the laws governing the very society making it possible for black dysfunction and criminality to be protected - lives be construed as racism and cause a controversy 5:06 PM Anonymous said... Why are we quick to listen to the plight of the carjacker and the drug dealer, so willing to put their behavior in “context,” yet we fail miserably to comprehend the fact that cops — particularly cops in high crime areas — are dealing with domestic abusers, addicts, thieves, murderers, pimps, and the various other dregs of humanity on a daily basis? This might take a toll on your psyche after awhile; perhaps make you jaded, cynical, even bitter.

Okay, if you have an opportunity to strain your eyes, I want you to understand the grievance by this concern troll.
The troll says that "we are quick to listen to the plight of the carjacker, the drug dealer, so willing to put their behavior in 'context'".
As usual the concern troll blames the victim. Hey, no one is perfect. No one can live in a glass house without a stone being thrown at it. I mean haven't you had a traffic violation or even an encounter with the law?
I have traffic citations. I know people who have criminal history. I've been fired from a job. I don't consent to police searches of my vehicle. I question why the law pulls me over.
The victims who died in police custody have not committed any criminal act. So what the fuck are you bringing up someone's past? It's not relevant to why these officers did what they've done to these unarmed citizens.
This troll says that our "very society making it possible for black dysfunction and criminality to be protected - lives be construed as racism and cause a controversy."
What pisses me off is the racial aspect to this. Black dysfunction and protecting criminality! What the fuck are you talking about? No one supports criminality. Not even the suspects.
Crime doesn't discriminate against race, gender, sexuality, nationality, religion, political and economic standings.
I don't often use race as a factor to why the victim died in police custody. That's left up to the junk food media and the trolls. Whenever the media releases a picture of the person who died in police custody, obviously you automatically tag race to it.
I can testify to experience that I've been profiled by the law. I had store guards look at me like I'm a shoplifter and I have experienced negative encounters.
I look at this as reckless calls. I also look at the blue wall of silence. This tactic is not official but it's common among those in law enforcement. An officer will defend his brothers. That's why oftentimes the leaks to the media say something positive about the law and something negative about the victim. This is a tactic that often gins up tension whenever someone like this troll says that "politicians and civil right leaders" condone "adjective" dysfunction and criminality.
Concern trolls are like this guy trying to move a boulder.
My psyche is always been common sense. I am reclusive and yet tend to be open minded. I don't have the assumption of guilt of anyone who commits a criminal act. That's why they have the 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th Amendments. Even the mass shooting terrorists in Tucson, Boston, Aurora and Charleston are innocent until proven guilty. Those terrorists in Boston, Tucson and Aurora faced the victims in a court of law.
It's because he pointed a gun.... How do you know?
Okay this is comes from the controversy facing the law in Dayton, Ohio. Montgomery County sheriff deputies who claimed that Dontae Martin pointed a firearm at them. They opened fire on him, killing him instantly. The cops reported this but yet they are still in the freezer.
Montgomery County sheriff Phil Plummer went into this claim that "he had a criminal record" and "cop killer bullets" to tarnish the victim. The family says this is a smear campaign and they're trying to shield corrupt lawman. I agree that Josh Haas and Gust Teague may have lied about the encounter.
They deserve the benefit of the doubt but I don't take them at their word given that their captain and lead sergeant were caught sharing racial emails. And this isn't the first time citizens complained about these two deputies.
They have no dash camera or body camera to back up their claims. They didn't have their lights on when this encounter occurred. We have to believe their word. I told you that Haas and two of his buddies, one being James DeBarr were the ones who profiled me earlier this year. Haas was the one who put a slug in a man at a gas station last year.
The family is calling for the U.S. Justice Department to look into the matter.
The concern troll is the "a plague on both your houses" approach, where the concern troll tries to convince people that both sides of the ideological divide are just as bad as each other, and so no one can think themselves "correct" but must engage in endless hedging and caveats. This preys on a willingness to debate critics and allow dissent; everyone wastes time discussing the matter and bending over backwards, so as not to appear intolerant of disagreement, all to the great amusement of the troll.
Do me and S. Baldwin a favor. Ignore the trolls. Don't feed them. Use them as an example to keep pushing harder for police reform. Use them for the opportunity to move the discussion forward.
Tensing in court. Being held on a $1 million get out free card.
Ray Tensing the former University of Cincinnati police officer who is indicted in the murder of unarmed motorist Sam DuBose appeared in court today. The get out free card is $1 million to get out of the iron college.
This controversy is getting major news attention.
Tensing a year on the UC police force stopped Sam for a missing front plate.
Prosecutor Joe Deters threw the book at him. He said that the evidence clearly shows that Tensing violated policy and deliberately lied about how this event happened.
Tensing ran with this story that Sam tried to drag him with the vehicle. Even two other officers claimed this event occurred. What Deters saw was a reckless call and a callous murder of a motorist.
For what, a missing front plate...seriously!
Deters said that Tensing had no business ever being a cop.....Ouch!
In the Hamilton County Ohio Court, the judge was none to kind to him. She ordered him to remain in lockup and have no contact with the family. Of course as the bond and holding was read, some in the courtroom disrupted the hearing. The judge was not kind to them as well.
A loud applause came when the bond was placed. The judge Megan Shanahan wasn't amused by the reaction. She told those in court to fly right or have a court date for contempt.
Who is the suspect here?
Tensing plead not guilty. He will have another court date in August. He is innocent until proven guilty.
Okay, DeRay McKesson is watching this and noticed something about the junk food media's portrayal of the suspect and the victim.
He saw that they ran the mugshot of Sam and uniformed Tensing. The images are to make you believe that Sam was the aggressor and Tensing was the officer protecting himself. The junk food media is getting blasted by the image posted above.
This stuff is common among the racist right. Now I can assure you that it's probably an editor's mistake but way too often they want to take the most offensive pictures of Black victims and run them.
This is being spread around by conservatives. They're bitching about the junk food media ignoring their anti-abortion rally to discuss an American hunter's reckless call to kill a lion.
Contenders for the clown car were in Washington for a rally to stop the women's health organization Planned Parenthood. Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz, Mike Lee, Rand Paul, Benjamin Carson, and Mike Huckabee have decided to join the #BabyLivesMovement.
This movement is sparked by undercover videos of Planned Parenthood.
Conservatives demand Congress strip funding for Planned Parenthood after undercover videos revealed executives sharing stories of selling body parts of dead fetuses.
The House and Senate are planning on a procedural vote before they take another vacation.
If they passed this bill, expect President Barack Obama will veto it. The Republicans don't have enough to override the veto.
So it will likely die in the process.
This defund Planned Parenthood protest was largely ignored by the media. It's been determined that the videos were deceptively edited and the full videos show no incriminating evidence of Planned Parenthood selling body parts. But you can't tell that to the conservatives.
The conservatives are pissed over the media coverage of an American hunter killing an endangered species. I hate to admit this, but conservatives are comparing the videos of Planned Parenthood to Walter Palmer's shooting of a protected lion.
Graphic images of Planned Parenthood doing research.
Palmer is a dentist from Minnesota shot and killed a lion that Zimbabwe monitored. This event sparked global outrage. The American dentist went into hiding and is facing possible criminal charges.
I will discuss the Cecil the Lion story in a moment.
Again, women don't look at termination as a pleasant experience. Nobody believes termination is a good thing. But again, in the case of a woman's health its done when they believe that a termination is worth saving the life of the woman.
Do you want a rape victim to be impregnated by her rapist?
Do you believe that woman should have babies?
Okay, since conservatives are so obsessed with the notion that abortions killed Black babies, say if the woman decides to keep the baby. If a woman (especially of color) has many children but struggles with finances, would conservatives complain that she's emboldened to the gubmint plantation of welfare and food stamps?
The things that concern trolls say about the lives of victims.
In the case of Sandra Bland, she's a marijuana in her system. She got mouthy with the officer. She hung herself in the cell. She was suicidal. She should have put out her cigarette.
In the case of Sam DuBose, he shouldn't have pulled away. The officer had the right to plug him one in him. He had a gin bottle in his ride. The cop loses because of a thug.
In the case of McKinney, those teens shouldn't have been at the pool. Those teens ran up on the officer. The teens were the ones who started the fight. It was a private community. They were all thugs. That young girl shouldn't gotten mouthy with the officer. The officer had a right to pull on the teens because he didn't know if the teens had a weapon.
In the case of the Charleston terrorist Dylann Roof. He wasn't a racist. He had mental issues. He ruined his sister's wedding plans. The gun wasn't responsible for the death of nine church goers. The Confederate Flag is about heritage not hate. The media is overreacting to this.
In the case of Freddie Gray, he's was on heroin and marijuana. He staged his injuries. He was banging his head while he was riding in transport. He had a criminal record. He had a switch blade on him.
Concern troll Ted Nugent.
In the case of Cecil, why are they getting upset over a lion when there's an organization devoted to killing babies?
In the case of gun control and gun rights it's usually a word vomit. One moment they say that Obama shouldn't meddle with the Second Amendment. They believe that guns would solve problems. But in the same sentence they would blame Obama for not talking about every gun crime in America. Don't you liberals care about the gun shootings in Chicago, Baltimore, Detroit and Cleveland?
Notice a pattern with conservatives. Always blame the victim. Find a tangent. Deflect a topic until it becomes less of a topic. Next tragedy happens and conservatives will say now isn't the time for change.
This is the part where it got graphic. Ray Tensing, ex-cop for the University of Cincinnati will have a day in court. He was indicted on murder and involuntary manslaughter charges. Sam DuBose wasn't a threat. He was a victim.
The Hamilton County prosecutor Joe Deters has thrown the hammer at a University of Cincinnati police officer who used his service weapon on Sam DuBose.
Me and S. Baldwin have followed the developments in Cincinnati.
World News Today send our condolences to the family of Samuel DuBose.
The law put the cuffs on ex-officer Raymond Tensing, 25. He was immediately fired out the cannon once the law determined he lied on his report about the confrontation with Sam DuBose, 43 year old father of 12. The stop was caused by a front place missing. The officer claimed that Sam threw the vehicle in high gear with his arm in the window. He used the service weapon to stop him. He put a slug in his head and Sam died immediately from lead.
Tensing a White cop stopped a Black motorist for a petty offense.
Tensing was nothing but a rookie according to Deters. He even went as far to say that Tensing had no business ever wearing a badge. Tensing was four years with Green Hills and one year with UC.
That means that the evidence on his body camera and dash camera showed something totally different than what he put in his report.
Ray Tensing got a day in court.
The video captured the firing of the service weapon.
According to Tensing, Sam was drunk and offered him a six pack. That would have been the racist right's talking point if the case turned out to be in favor of the law. Tensing claimed that Sam couldn't pull out a license and had a struggle with him. The two struggled for the door. He had no choice but to give a lead sandwich.
What really happened was a routine pull over. It was a calm exchange between Sam and Tensing.
No threats, no physical altercation, no belligerent or aggressive behavior towards Tensing.
Sam explained to Tensing that he was driving his wife's car. He had a closed bottle of gin. He asked why he had to get out the car. Tensing grabbed the door and told him to exit the vehicle. Sam holds the door back and rev up the vehicle. That's when Tensing decided to put the lead in the head of Sam. The vehicle moved only after the lead when into Sam's head. Tensing concocted this story of an aggressive drunk who tried to peel off with his hand in the window.
The University of Cincinnati chief Jason Goodrich let the cannon fire after he and Deters reviewed the video.
Tensing is innocent until proven guilty in this. If found guilty, this ex-cop will get LIFE in the iron college.
Wondering whether the conservative agitators will take the side of Tensing? Of course.
This is the first time in Cincinnati history that an officer got cuffed. The unfortunate circumstances of a cop who felt "threatened" because he saw a Black guy with a nice ride.
A cop who automatically assumed guilt before innocence.
We will keep you updated with anything that comes in this controversy.
A father of 12 was gunned down by university cop and the city of Cincinnati is now once again dealing with another shooting of an unarmed man.
There were over 500 incidents where those in law enforcement used deadly force on individuals.
We don't have all the names of those shot by the law. But if it wasn't for social media, some of them wouldn't even gotten this much attention.
A father of 12 children was to be married at the end of the year. It's a shame that this dream of happiness was cut short after a traffic stop resulted in his death. He was a non violent offender.
The University of Cincinnati Police officer who shot and killed the unarmed motorist is on leave while his superiors hands it over to the Cincinnati Police and Ohio Bureau of Investigation.
Yeah, wink and nod.
The Cincinnati Police are still grieving over the death of Sonny Kim. He was gunned down a few weeks back in Madisonsville by a suicidal suspect.
Samuel Dubose, 43 from Cincinnati was shot by the university cop after allegedly driving the vehicle with the officer's hand in it. The Cincinnati police are investigating the situation.
The shooting happened Sunday evening around 6:30 pm. The officer Ray Tensing pulled over Sam for having no license or license plate. In the officer's report Sam handed Tensing a bottle of the drank.
When the officer refused the bottle, Sam pulled off and that's when Tensing drew his service weapon and let the lead fly.
Sam was gutted and was pronounced dead at the scene. The officer had a body camera. The officer had a dash camera. The city prosecutor will look at the tape before determining where they go next.
Of course, we seen this one too many times. Like with the shootings of John Crawford and Tamir Rice, the law will find some excuse to say that the suspects were provoking the situation. They will lie on their reports.
Shooting in Mt. Auburn
The blue wall of silence will once again come forth when the junk food media brings pressure on the law to arrest one of their own for the reckless call.
Yeah. Sam had served time in the iron college for marijuana possession. He wasn't charged for robbery and assault. So of course, the leaks of information about Sam will come into the conversation.
They will use every tactic to pain Sam as the criminal and not the victim.
Of course, President Barack Obama will be forced to discuss this situation the moment, rioting breaks out in the city. Cincinnati in April 2001 had a riot. The riot involved the aftermath of Stephen Roach, ex-Cincy lawman getting off with bucking Timothy Thomas, an unarmed suspect. Timothy had minor offenses but Roach was spooked by the young teen running through a dark alley and he pulled the trigger. That set off a week of unrest. Actually three days but for the junk food media, it would be like unrest. The junk food media was racing to the areas where the liquor store and clothing stores to watch the looters grab the drank and pair of Nikes.
World News Today send our condolences to the family of Samuel Dubose.
