XXXTentacion dead at 20.

Interesting. I honestly did not know that many white people had been killed in 2017 by police. You got me there. But if you look at those statistics, you'll see right there how many times black people have been shot by police. Though it is less than white people (honestly amazes me because you NEVER hear about it lol), it's still quite a significant amount. Can't deny that. It is a problem. Police brutality is a problem.

Also, taken from facebook: [video=]https://www.facebook.com/policethepoliceACP/videos/2244819848868332/[/video]

Though it is not a black person he was shooting at, was this police officer's life in ANY danger? Why did he have to shoot him? Because he resisted arrest? Come on.

>shoots guy multiple times and has the nerve to ask if the person's okay when he's obviously unresponsive and probably dead
>claims he had a gun, but now he can't find it lol
>a lot of bystanders came to yell and videotape the officer and most of them were white/hispanic.

That entire FB page is filled with videos like that. I think we're getting off topic now though, so agree to disagree. I do agree 100% with that very last part though, and with that, I apologize for my wording in previous posts.

I agree, that shooting could've been avoided easily and/or been dealt with differently (eg. a stun gun). What was going through the officers head, I don't know. BUT innocent people don't run and I'm guessing that's what he had been taught.

While we're being off topic anyway, I don't understand why you're pulling the black race card on shootings and only focusing on them. Black victims only make up a little over 29% of all the kills. If you want to know why black shootings make it to the news, look at your media channels and you can find the problems there. No one cares about white people getting shot, because it's not interesting and doesn't stir anything up. Why aren't we talking about how many black people other black people kill? Why does the topic of black people being killed only come up when the killer is white/a white cop?

Man, I was just saying that as an example when were were talking about X. Can we please step away from this argument now?

I enjoyed what little I've heard of his music, he definitely had a unique flow for a popular/mainstream artist
Better artists than him still underground though, making similar if not better music.
