As a foreign cracker, it seems like the perspective of many black Americans is similar to the way non-mentally ill people view a jew killing a nazi (because of what other nazis have done).
I'm not implying the situation's are identical, or that this cop deserved it, but hate is a natural response to oppression and persecution, especially by the state, and especially across generations. It doesn't look like anything has really changed since George Floyd (or Rodney King 35 years ago), except that America is more of a fascist shithole. As long as some cops are immune to be lawless criminals, it's ridiculous to expect blacks to forgive and forget.
cracker means poor white person… the term started in Europe from rich white people talking about poor white people.
pretty much a hillbilly.
i do see it as similar to your example, but there are some important differences….
but, this was a temporary insanity case if i ever saw one. he just watched bodycam video of his son being shot in the back… the official report says the kid had a gun and shot first.
even though that contradicted what’s on video, all of the cops will testify that’s what happened, and an officers testimony is considered solid evidence in court. basically equivalent to physical evidence. The cop will walk. Maybe move to a different city and murder kids there.
for the record, i stole a car when i was a teenager too… when they pulled us over, they thought i was loading a gun because i was trying to hide a pipe in the car (i didn’t even have weed for it)… they surrounded us with guns drawn and did not kill any of us.
guess what color skin we all had?
maybe they would’ve shot if we all tried to run… but i doubt it.
i see it very similar to a jew killing a nazi in nazi germany… it’s not as severe, but not that far off.
i wish he had hunted down the actual cop who murdered his kid… then i’d be fully on board.
The George Floyd example was a lot more clear cut, I think. Hard to argue that was anything other than murder.
