White people are shot by police officers too. Look up Dylan Noble, June 25, 2016, Fresno CA. If you think these black men who were shot by the police are innocent, you are mistaken. Anton Sterling: He has a criminal history and he was definitely NOT cooperating with the officers. Asking, "what did I do, what did I do?" while armed and resisting. It doesn't matter what you did at the moment. You comply with the officers commands, cooperate, and don't resist. If they don't explain it to you after that point, you tell your side to the judge. If black people REALLY feel like their lives are in danger by police officers, why would they provoke them? Why resist? AND HE DID!! Two grown men, with a stun gun couldn't take him down! He STILL resisted! I think they had legitimate reason to fear for their safety at that point. Yes, I feel they shot him point blank in the chest after he was down on the ground, but it would have never gotten to that point if he had complied and didn't resist. And we NEVER see these video confrontations from the beginning. We never see what precipitated the events, we only see when the police start to struggle with the individuals, because that is when people start recording for their own agenda.
Philando Castile: If that were my husband/child's father, I wouldn't be just sitting there saying, "tell me you didn't just shoot him." I would have been like, " Oh my god, you shot him!! Call an ambulance!" "Don't die, I'm here, stay with me!" I would have been holding him, putting pressure on the wounding, doing CPR. She was more worried about filming than about him dying right there. I would have wanted to hold my husband in my arms as he took his last breaths, not been more worried about filming. She had to stay calm and respectful to stay alive, my ass. They weren't going to shoot her for tending to her husband/boyfriend. AND, if black people are so worried about their encounters with police officers, why not start filming from the minute they were pulled over??? She didn't start filming until AFTER he was shot and we only hear HER side of the story. According to her, He was only complying with what they asked and getting his license, registration, and license to carry and they shot him. NOT!! The officer said he told him to get his hands up and he continued to reach behind him. Why TELL them you have a gun and a license FIRST?? That just puts them on edge. Why not get out your license, reg. and CWC all together? In his state, he had no duty to inform until/unless asked. There is A LOT more to this story. It is not EXACTLY as this woman states. The people, black, white, or whoever, who have been shot by police officers, have not been doing what they are told to do and then all of a sudden been shot. They are resisting, running, grabbing for something, not complying with commands, etc. And they were breaking the law before it even got to that point to begin with.
If black people are so concerned with black lives, why do black lives only matter when a white person is taking that life? Where are the protesters when black people are killing each other? Is it ok then? Do those black lives not matter? And if you want to compare it to breast and lung cancer, they don't say, well your lung cancer matters more because you were exposed to asbestos from working hard all your life, but YOU, on the other hand, deserved it because you smoked all your life, so we aren't treating you. ALL lung cancer matters. ALL lives matter. Sorry. If it is police corruption and trigger happy officers that's the problem, Dylan Noble deserves as much protest as Philando Castile. Where is Beyonce???
While the Dallas Police officers' shooter was black, I don't believe he was related to the BLM protesters. However, the protesters have protested with violence, rioting, looting, arson, and destruction. How is the destruction of YOUR OWN cities proving your point?
