Let's see how long it takes for nothing to happen this time...

The video I saw kind of explains the whole problem. As he walks up to the SUV, the cop says "that looks like a bad dude". He's walking with his hands up...what about him makes him "look like a bad dude"? Within about 20 seconds, tasered and shot dead. Here is the video...

what went down and how it went down. Reading the stories are one thing, but with so many slanted articles from both sides, it can be difficult to get unbiased perspective. with the video, I can get most of the details of the incident, if not the backstory.

So much about this situation is disturbing and disgusting.

-He's walking back to his car, which had stalled out in the middle of 36th Street North, with his hands in the air.
-They had guns drawn on him the entire time as if he was Osama.
-There is no audio or video of what happened before the second car and helicopter arrive, as the first officer (the one who shot him) had either turned her dash cam off or it was never working, still unsure about that.
-He's going down after the officer tased him, but she fires IMMEDIATELY and, with the amount of blood, clearly shot him dead center in the chest from close range.
-He lays there for nearly two minutes while some officers run away, others walk around the car to look for god knows what and three of them back away, guns still drawn, as if he's some zombie that's going to pop back up and kill them.
-They left him there and didn't check his vitals for TWO MINUTES.
-All that crap from the idiot helicopter. "Bad dude" who's "on something"...come on.

Lots of misinformation and irrelevant things being bandied about in the conservative media in the aftermath as some sort of justification for this. People saying the cops were called on him because he was acting erratically and threatening someone. No. That was the ORIGINAL CALL the cops were going to that they never made it to because of Crutcher's truck being broken down in the road.
Lots of bullshit about him having priors for violent interactions with police. No. He had a bench warrant for unpaid court costs totaling $2,000 from a 2006 misdemeanor arrest, which, last I checked, wasn't a reason to be shot dead.
People saying "why is he walking back to his car" or whatever, but we'll never know because the responding officer (THE ONE THAT SHOT HIM) had her dash cam turned off. Whatever happened before the other cops got there we sadly will never know.

I guess I'm surprised at how quickly TPD released the footage and how forthcoming they've been so far about it, but nothing about this situation makes much sense in how the police reacted and treated this guy. The helicopter was apparently just in the area and not responding to any particular call (sure, scramble a helicopter in North Tulsa because, you know, it's Friday) and they've named the two officers on board, but they are both apparently saying the civilian pilot was the one that called him a "bad dude" "on something". They have also confirmed that audio was not on the police radio but the in-flight record system instead, so at least she wasn't bated into shooting him by what those jackasses were saying.
They shot him in the chest after they tased him and nobody checked on him for two damn minutes. The shooting officer, who got her start in the policing business via the Tulsa County sheriff's office (remember Eric Harris?), can't say she was trying to tase him, too, since she didn't have one on her belt and ONLY had her service weapon drawn.
All for having a stalled car. And of all the 6 or 7 officers that appear on camera, not a one of them is black. At 36th Street North and Lewis. 6 or 7 white cops responding to a stalled car. Insanity.

even though he's in a helicopter and all it looks like is a black guy in a white t-shirt with his hands up.

You've got attitudes like that, along with the blue wall of silence=a problem that wont be fixed in my lifetime.

And that audio feed wasn't on the police radio just the inflight recorder of the cockpit talk. Not a justification, just an explanation.

i dunno the answer but i doubt it's 'lets tear up/burn down some shit' b/c they won't stop shooting us b/c they're scared we will keep burning shit in response. that won't work. instead, they'll KEEP shooting us b/c we will have proved that we are violent ppl by nature - which is the main reason i think they keep shooting us. they shoot us b/c they skurred b/c they think we're extra violent.

i dunno the answer. there's no immediate answer. they need education. they need healing. it may take generations to fix them. but THEY are the problem - it's not us. it's them. i dunno how to fix them. or heal them. but they need it.

and fucking PCP??? who in the fuck is STILL taking PCfuckingP in 2016? what in the fuck would even make her think that? see? she needs healing.

PCP. GTFOHWTBS.

Not to get dark, but my job has CNN on 24-7 and there was a decisive difference with the pro-police talking heads they drag onto the channel after Dallas. Even Glen Beck changed up his tune:

http://www.nytimes.com/2016/09/07/opinion/glenn-beck-empathy-for-black-lives-matter.html?_r=0

While violence is never the good (and would hurt us in the end) but ultimately disruptive acts are what made this part of the public consciousness, including the violent ones.

...what did we gain from all of that^?

right now they still skurred of us TODAY b/c of ^ that.

or maybe more b/c of this:

well, the fear goes back further than that, of course.

but i don't understand how our being violent will help convince white ppl that we aren't violent. it's pretty counterintuitive. it feel good though.

fuck you.

41. "It's not about "convincing them that we aren't violent". They've BEEN"
In response to Reply # 37


          

violent toward us pretty much since
encountering us here and in Africa.
They could have gotten more from us
through honorable trade then through
violence. THEY chose violence, so your
observation that it's them and not us is
correct but incompatible with the idea
that they fear us because of our own
violence. They fear us for a reason beyond
our own actions.
That's not to say our unrest has to be
physically violent. It'll be more
effective in targeting local government
for removal, but I ain't against the
protests either, necessarily.

46. "Blaming ourselves proves them right"
In response to Reply # 25


  

          

so the PD can continue to act accordingly. Police BEEN killing us way before the height of Black-on-Black crime, drugs, and gang banging. And why? Before all of that, why? We looked dangerous.

Before police were killing us out of racism. Now they are killing us because of our own problems in the Black community? Black cop(s) unlawfully kill somebody, they are getting terminated possible jail time. White cop unlawfully kills a Black person......?

Now that we are focused on killing ourselves now we have to fix us before shit gets better? Police are bending rules to unlawfully kill us....yeah, you are right....the answer is for us to straighten up so they will see the error of their ways. Kind of like slavery is our fault since it was being practiced in Africa too!!!!

Timothy McVeigh, Middle Eastern terrorists, Russian terrorists can be brought in without getting shot dead, but a Black man with his hands up? Yeah, the Black community is responsible so let's give that trigger happy cop a pass.

Foh.

But if we go tear up and shoot up and burn down shit it won't help much I think. If I thought that shit would help if be all for it. But at this point I think we're best off separating from them altogether. We should just leave. If we burn it down we can do so on our way out. Sure they have much superior weaponry all the way up to nukes and we cannot ever match their fire power so really it makes NO sense getting into an armed conflict with the USA but you ppl really hate white motherfuckers and you are totally illogical and kinda dull so yeah let's go with that plan to get violent. Let's sign our own death warrants. We had a good run. Fuck it all. Let's go out in a blaze of glory. Together.

fuck you.

I agree. Maybe use the energy to unite and build a strong economic and political base. And stick to it. Do the thing they've been trying to keep us from doing this whole time. That's all I was thinking.

because she already answered these questions
of why they do what they do, on an unconscious,
psychological level.
I understand you don't participate in reproduction,
and yall have this misconception that she's
homophobic, even though she wasn't, but when your
own breakdown is this terrible, it's better to
heed the work of someone who actually studied
these things. Not to mention you're a lawyer,
and there were laws as far back as the 1700s
that excused the killing of Black people as
long as you were "correcting" them and so forth.

It's insane that you even went as far as to say:

>instead, they'll KEEP shooting us b/c we will have
>proved that we are violent ppl by nature


US? WE are the one who are "violent by nature?
Like I said, they've been violent toward us since
contacting us. We embraced them, and have been
trying to do so over and over. Their fear of us
isn't connecting to anything we do or don't do.
It's connected to who we are.


Before that, you say:

>which is the main reason i think they keep shooting
>us. they shoot us b/c they skurred b/c they think
>we're extra violent.


Which is just flat out wrong. Frances Cress Welsing
and Neely Fuller answered this. Amos Wilson offered
the short answer of "because they can." All better
answers than you're proposing here.

In response to Reply # 25


  

          

they are literally tellin us this to our face

so when someone tells u they don't like you, shows you they don't like you, treats you as such regularly what do you do?

avoid em?
walk on egg shells round em?
speak good?
hold hands in a show of solidarity while the anthem plays?


funny while we STAY getting slapped in the face, kicked in the nuts, L'ed the fuck out, we gotta stay peaceful


that's white beef 101.... they talk cash shit...swing first...and as soon as a nigga cocks back to swing....all the peace talk comes out

wash rinse repeat

white folks been doin that since the playground


niggas is fed up

they (other 'conservative type' yt folks) gonna have to check each other f'real and I don't see enough of that goin on

69. "avoid 'em."
In response to Reply # 67


  

          

separate from 'em.

i dunno any other answer today. i don't see a way forward w/us together. not w/them as they are. the amount of healing it would take to fix them...that's multiple generations.

look at the number of them who are eating up Trump's bullshit. OPENLY. that right there tells me along w/this police brutality w/impunity shit...that tells me there's little to no hope of them being healed w/in my lifetime. and probably not the next generation's either. i don't see it.

separation probably isn't feasible but it's probably our best answer. b/c white ppl as a whole are hopelessly lost.

fuck you.

In response to Reply # 70


  

          

for show but for real that's the kind of shit it'll take to fix them. they have to fix themselves. and they have NO incentive to do so. i dunno that our violence will give them that incentive considering they can easily dismiss us and/or put down our violence w/the USA's superior weaponry.

i dunno what it'll take to incentivize white ppl to heal their own bigotry, prejudice, racism, and unreasonable fear of black ppl (and other non-white ppl). i dunno. b/c appealing to their humanity and showing them ours doesn't work. they have no empathy for us. or not enough, at least. so that doesn't work. scaring them doesn't work.

i dunno.

fuck you.

start with those that are pulling endorsements and the like and move on down the line

it doesn't feel feasible as a whole but it's it's really the only way to protest peacefully without risk of needless interaction with the police

In response to Reply # 31


  

          

im pretty sure they didn't want him to walk back to his car nor reach for anything inside... but with no audio, I might be wrong...

that being said, even if he didn't follow all commands, it didn't justify lethal force... proof of that is that the other officer pulled out his taser instead of his firearm...

the cops were there or should've been there to HELP HIM. his car was broken down and he was stranded. this was NOT a criminal investigation - the cops were there (or should've been there) in a community caretaking role.

there was no need to give him commands to do anything. there was nothing criminal happening. or, they had no reason to suspect anything criminal.

but i didn't see the first fe

i don't care about the first few minutes of the interaction. the cops should've been there offering him help.

fuck you.

86. "this is true"
In response to Reply # 42


  

          

it's still pretty cut and dry that the police completely fucked up

why taser AND shoot

the taser is bad enough but at least he's still alive...he wasn't a threat to them even if disobeying commands and there didn't seem to be any reason to be giving him commands in the first place

but the drugged out thugged out narrative will play out well for the jury...

especially since we have no idea why he was walking away from the police other than fear of what ended up happening

In response to Reply # 0


          

Crank up the systemic excuse machine, like having or maybe even being high on PCP is a reason to be killed. Especially stop it with the shooter's attorney saying that she had some sort of expert drug recognition training, as if that is an excuse for killing someone.

http://www.tulsaworld.com/news/local/pcp-found-in-vehicle-occupied-by-terence-crutcher-on-friday/article_d965a1f2-072b-57bf-a682-6b1cfb22b246.html



PCP found in vehicle occupied by Terence Crutcher on Friday, police detective confirms



Posted: Tuesday, September 20, 2016 1:25 pm
From Staff Reports | 1 comment
Graphic video: Tulsa Police footage from fatal shooting of unarmed Terence Crutcher
Justice will be achieved in Terence Crutcher shooting, Tulsa police chief assures community
A Tulsa Police official confirmed to the Tulsa World Tuesday afternoon that officers found PCP in the vehicle used by Terence Crutcher the night he was fatally shot by police.
Homicide Sgt. Dave Walker declined to say where in the vehicle investigators recovered the vial of PCP, nor did he say whether officers determined Crutcher, 40, used it Friday night, when he was fatally shot by Officer Betty Shelby at 36th Street North and Lewis Avenue at about 7:45 p.m.
Tulsa Police Chief Chuck Jordan said during a Monday afternoon news conference that officers found no gun on Crutcher or in the SUV, which had stopped in the middle of 36th Street North west of Lewis after apparently breaking down. Video footage from the dash camera of Officer Tyler Turnbough, who backed up Shelby on the call, shows Crutcher walking back to his vehicle with his hands up and with Shelby pointing a gun at his back.
Shelby's attorney, Scott Wood, claims she fired because Crutcher reached into the vehicle. Turnbough used his Taser simultaneously, while Shelby did not have a Taser at the time. Video footage from a helicopter camera also at the scene indicates at least one of Crutcher's hands was up when Shelby fired, striking his upper right chest.
Wood said Monday that Shelby's drug recognition expert training led her to believe Crutcher had been exhibiting signs of being under the influence of PCP.

but if she's right and he was on that shit then that's the end of the case. b/c the purveiling thought seems to be that PCP gives (black) ppl superhuman strength and makes (black) ppl act outrageously crazy.

damn though. where'd they even find PCP to plant on the brother?

The message about this shooting was quiet all yesterday. Just a few people saying "wait for the facts" and some condemning the police.

Then the PCP report came out and that shit blew up lol. Folks coming out of the wood works to claim they knew it and sarcastically call him "college boy" or "a godly man" smh

63. "how bout that"
In response to Reply # 54


  

          

How can an ARMED AND DANGEROUS Eric Frein, who KILLED a State Trooper and was on the run for a month be brought in alive?

How can the ARMED AND DANGEROUS dude who shot Rep. Gabby Gifford and killed 6 people, including a 9 year old girl not be shot dead?

It's all bullshit.

92. "what i continue to wonder when these things happen..."
In response to Reply # 79


  

          

is WHY, with all the money these police departments are granted, are ALL cops not issued stun guns.

not only is it surprising to find out that not as many cops carry stun guns as you might think, but I BELIEVE (correct me if i'm wrong if anyone knows more than i do) that cops can CHOOSE to NOT carry one. if so, that SHOULD NOT be an option.

also, police are poorly trained as fuck. if you're gonna arm them like the military then maybe they should be trained like the military because the military is taught to not jump from zero to lethal execution but i guess the cops don't get those same steps in their training.

In response to Reply # 68


          

What happened when she initially rolled up on the car, what was their discussion like, how was he acting that led her to 1) draw her weapon and 2) call for backup. As difficult as it is to say at this point, I think the shooting itself was a mistake by someone that likely didn't have the demeanor to be in that position and shouldn't have been in it (manslaughter); such is the quality of police officer an underfunded and overworked force like TPD can attract and retain (typical metropolitan story of the big city forces losing any half-decent officer to suburban, high paying, low crime precincts as soon as they get an offer). Everything that led up to her drawing a weapon on him has to be answered and accounted for.

from these savages.

The next time you think shit is getting better,
remember all the killings of the past. Remember
all the promises and all the times we thought
things were going to change... not only in YOUR
lifetime, but remember that negroes have been
thinking the good times were coming since 1865.
That's 151 yrs. The violence of people classified
as WHITE has been enacted upon us at least 350 yrs
before that.
We've thought things were changing over and over.
Multiple Civil Rights acts (1865, 1964), renewals,
new laws, etc. If we're citizens, why do they need
to keep renewing our rights? Lol, stop falling for this
shit. They kill us because they want to, and nothing
that we do or don't do will stop their desire to do so.
Please keep this in mind moving forward.

They will never stop until we stop them.

The solution is not to beg for their love, sex, or
acceptance. The only solution is to stop them,
however we decide to do that.

In response to Reply # 80


  

          

Lincoln didn't free enslaved Africans -- he was simply an instrument used to do so, but that aside.

First in foremost is prayer and every church in our community needs to solicit prayers for the following:

From Ephesisans 6:12

For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this world's darkness, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.

^Gotta pray against that. Pray that these corrupt forces will be exposed, dealt with, destroyed or contained in accordance with God's will.

and as James 5:16 says
Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.

If we do those two things and most importantly believe that change will come we'll see this corruption dealt with. One way or the other.

Sorry for the preaching, that's the only source material I have.

If you MUST take from the Bible, take the part
where the people had to FIGHT for freedom.
Not this "sit around and pray" mentality.
We've been doing that for years.

Also, in Africa, we had very spiritual cultures.
The problem was that we came up against warrior
cultures who had NO respect for life aka white
folks (and they STILL have no respect for life,
especially ours). We were slaughtered. Ethiopia
was the only country who didn't suffer this fate
(if I'm remembering correctly)
due to their leader making a deal to get WEAPONS
to FIGHT these savages. All that praying and
being overly spiritual is a recipe for disaster
against this level of savagery. History bears
that out. How long have we been doing that?
Not just here but before we even got here lol.
Man c'mon.

Oh, and you're right... Lincoln didn't free us,
we freed our damn selves.

so stay in the streets with only anger and frustration and no champion. There is a time to take up arms, but do you think now is that time when there is no guidance?

If we're going to repay violence with violence it needs to be righteous i.e the opposite of what they do -- not the same.

In response to Reply # 97


          

although I don't rule it out completely.

As far as "seeking one's maker" being needed
in order to keep a level head, I disagree.
Of course levelheadedness and strategy is
necessary. This is just plain ol military
science. Harriet Tubman's main route wasn't
violent rebellion, but she did have the shotgun
on deck, for instance.
Overall, what I'm saying is that there's no
biblical approach necessary for our path to
liberation. If you wanna count balancing our
emotions as "prayer" then ok, sure.
Other than that, it's all about strategy, planning,
and action.

Problematic because we have minds that can
figure out what the problem is and enact
the plan... minds who already HAVE figured
out the correct course of action. What
the course needs behind it is our will to
follow through with the plan... our collect
drive. We ARE the "something" we're waiting on.

if you think we as second class citizens can do it on our own strength when that really has never been the model than cool. We have a difference of opinion in that regard.

We had talent and numbers when they were bringing Africans over here. Didn't seem to be enough, but if we connect with that which is in all of us then we become much more than the the "something" we've been waiting for -- we actually become the awakened giant that we need IMO.

135. "I still hold to my first thoughts, but education would be another arrow"
In response to Reply # 108


  

          

In the quiver. Personally I see a huge overlap between higher education and the amount overt racism one encounters. Just throwing that out there. So maybe get enough at risk folks educated and the problem is at least lessened significantly.

187. "I'll reply to this and #124 right here"
In response to Reply # 135


          

For 124, things (good and bad) come through people
who believe all kinds of things or nothing at all.

For the education point, whether I agree or not
depends on the education. If it's proper education
about our actual past and present, coupled with
knowledge geared toward liberation, I wholeheartedly
agree.
However, if we're talking about the common mis-education
we receive in America schools that teaches us to value
whiteness over ourselves and to merely enhance other
groups, nah (it kinda came across like this is what
you mean). Often, those of us who are "educated"
in the traditional American sense
are the biggest self-haters and worse than a racist
white person when it comes to trying to hold a Black
person down. Think Thurgood Marshall and his belief
that Black people shouldn't be teachers.
Also, the idea of experiencing less overt racism is
tricky. Those with a traditional American education
tend to have jobs that require a certain dress code
and some idea of how to communicate with white folks,
so that stands to reason. Neither of those things
require a traditional American education tho.

. No massive white army came in and took over. It was always divide and conquer. One ethnic group with a 5000 year grudge against another siding with the tamahu.

The "British" colonial army in west Africa waz 80% Black.

82. "I hope we're listening to the viable solutions."
In response to Reply # 74


          

We're a nation within a nation.
Our economic base is vital.
We're hated because we're Black, but victimized
because we're poor and not unified as a people.
By and large, there are no repercussions for
victimizing us, because too many of us are only
concerned about ourselves in our own lifetime
rather than the collective and generations to come.

what's the problem?

he's exposing the fact that the SUV's window was UP which contradict's the police story that Terence was reaching in the window when the officer shot him.

i don't see a problem there.

what's up?

That track record pretty much proves he's

damage to the system in that courtroom, they
would kill him like they did Johnny Cochran.
Or just ban him like they did Alton Maddox.

In response to Reply # 114


          

You think he just shows up with some tissues for
the family and holds them at night when they cry?
He has to present evidence, he can request a different
prosecutor, etc. He has quite a bit to do with
the outcome of the trial. Hell it's often on him
whether it even goes to trial or not in the first place.

Nowhere from Canada to Tierra del Fuego will they get a better deal than they have in America

Asia?
Japan, Korea, Phillipenes, Myanmar/Burma, China, Indonesia, Thailand???

India, one of the stahns, Mongolia?

Europe???

Cmon, bruh.
Have you even though this shit out?
Or you're just fucking talking to be talking?
Do you even have a fucking viable plan?
Or you're just bumping your fucking gums?

Do you even have a plan for YOURSELF to leave the USA?
why haven't you enacted it yet?
What are you waiting on?

You're just full of shit.
That's what I think.
It don't take much nigga.
I've have extended stays outside the USA a few times and the only thing it takes is MONEY
Again, I think you're just full of shit and ain't about no ACTION
I still have PO Boxes and utility bills in my name in foreign lands

But you sit here and pop shit all day about me "talking bad about black women"

224. "I speak Japanese and lived there for over two years"
In response to Reply # 194


  

          

I've lived in Norway for a short time as well; in the house of a Norwegian family and they were some of the most hospitable people I've met and this wasn't as an exchange student.

I'm renewing my passport and I do plan/hope to leave God willing of course. I work with computers and check the foreign jobs regularly. Just putting money aside at the moment and getting a few more development languages under my belt.

The world is a big place and to think that a country that despises you more than any other (save for maybe Brazil) is the best place to be well -- I don't know your perogative I guess.

I'm almost 100% certain that I've never accused you of defaming black women, but if you say so. I don't know. Whatever.

I've noticed in life that the people who are the most accusatory are usually the ones guilty of the accusation themselves but that's probably not the case here. Interestingly enough your undying love for this wretched land does remind of a speech I heard once during which the speaker was quoted as saying

"What do you mean run away? And leave this good house? What better house is there than this?" I think that speech must be over 40 years old yet still rings true today.

It's white families in the deepest parts of Alabama that will take you in and be hospitable to you, does that make America welcoming to you?
These white Norweigians didn't just pick your black ass up off the street and take you in so there was some type of "thing" going on which already makes them more "open minded" than most.

You haven't even given a list of FIVE countries that treat black americans better than america.

You've given us no "Promised Land"
where is this mythical place you want us to run TOO???

should 20M of the 40M blacks in america run to Norway?
they can't even absorb 100k syrians
how the fuck you think they taking on 1M niggas?
of those 1M niggas, how many you think are ready for norweigian food?
them long, cold, snowy ass winters?
black man ain't built for no cold!


I'm trying to help you come up with a list here.
But you're not willing.

I have a plan for me I'm not repeating it because I already typed it. Read it or don't read it and quit playing on my post homie.

I told you the most racist countries towards black folks are America and Brazil, and let's not forget South Africa. So by default anything less racist than that is better by default. Racism and prejudice is likely everywhere to some degree but do you know what isn't?

Innocent black men, women, and children getting killed in the streets or in their homes just because some white people wanted to kill them. As far as I'm concerned anywhere that isn't happening is better. Anywhere that hasn't abused people like us for 400 years is a better place. It's not up for debate.

If a black person or black people are comfortable here and or are cool with trying to get leopards to change their spots for the entirety of their lives while simultaneously enduring systemic and cultural abuse then so be it, but reality says it's a total waste of time. If America wanted to treat us equally it would have by now. Personally, my life is too short for that bullshit. Where can or should black people go?

Anywhere they can or want to.

I asked for a simple PRIORITIZED top 5 list
and you can't even come up with one
because you know if you do (or if you could) that shit would be ripped to shreds and shown that BLACK PPL won't fare better in that nation than they do in America

It can't be anywhere in the Americas
Not even Canada
Can't be Asia (do they really like niggas like that there?)
Europe might have been a cool case but only certain countries
But with the way they treating Syiran refugees makes you give pause to how they'd treat us Blacks.

You're just rambling man
Never any FIRM concrete plans
Just everything is always elusive and fleeting
Then you tie it back to the racial injustices that America has brought upon us


And if Japan and Norway was so great for you, why'd you bring your miserable black ass back to the USA???
You know that's what these country white boys is saying right?
Nigger, no one is holding you here
and if you don't like it so much, LEAVE!!!
but yet, you sit your ass here steadily COMPLAINING

I don't complain because I saw what life was like abroad
not a vacation
but fucking LIVING
with a job, bank acct, buying shower curtains, BUILDING A HOUSE!
all types of real life regular shit that you won't get from a weekend in somebody's airbnb
you know how fucking difficult it is to get a damn cellphone in Italy?


If you want, I can help you devise a REAL plan to have lacks emigrate to various countries. It took me a few years of figuring out the countries that are easiest to emigrate to (not to say they are the least racist)

>Personally, my life is too short
>for that bullshit. Where can or should black people go?
>
>Anywhere they can or want to.


You're telling niggas to LEAVE
but when they ask "WHERE"?
you say "anywhere you WANT to"
but 99% of Black americans have never even thought of or researched living in other countries enough to even have a clue
help your Black ppl out and give them a headstart


We can continue this and BUILD a list of countries that would be most receptive of Black Americans or you can shut this shit down right now and run away
but basically, I'm doing your homework for you now
why?
because you're the OKP "black folk must emigrate" champion
but you have NO FUCKIN PLAN right now

That's what I'll do FOR ME because I'm open to whatever. It may be
Japan, it may be Europe, could be Canada, TO ME it doesn't matter where I end up because NO MATTER WHERE THAT IS THE POLICE WONT BE KILLING BLACK PEOPLE FOR SPORT. Do you understand that? Does it register? I can't make it any clearer.

Five places I think black Americans would be better off? First understand I'm not caught up in materialism so if a place doesn't match Amerikkka in terms of physical comforts to me that's a worthwhile trade off. To you or folks of similar mind it's probably anathema so please -- try ever so hard to keep that in your sleepy ass head.

In no particular order:

Belize
Panama
Canada
Norway
Sweeden
Finland
France
Ireland
Iceland
Thailand
Hungary
Southern Spain

(If I were going to go African I'd look into the following, but I know cats like you are more scared of African countries than you are the police) and admittedly I'm going off what folks who've been have told me for these, but TO ME they can't be any worse than here and I DON'T GIVE A FUCK if the infrastructure isn't the same as here. If folks are concerned about that then see above

Nigeria
Ghana
Kenya
Dar Es Salaam (it's a city but apparently doing very well)
Zanzibar

Are 13 Million or so black folks going to learn a new language, get whatever in demand skills are needed, and mass migrate to one place? Very unlikely but it's totally feasible that we could spread out among those places and live safer lives in regard to both the authorities and sadly ourselves as well. All would take some degree of resourcefullness but I'd bet our future generations would fare better there than here.

It's about options and we have the option to leave if we want to and I believe we should explore that option. Don't worry man -- there are white women in those countries too j/k.

America has hated you for centuries it shows you that everyday and a man is border line delusional to think this is the best it can get.

I understand you're using a SINGULAR thought/feeling to address 40,000,000 people.
That's smart.
I'm trying to help you bring clarity and reality to your thoughts.
As I said before, I've done what you are promoting to do.
So I've experienced pitfalls personally, as well as heard/read the journies of others 50 years before me and concurrently with me.

(I grouped them for you by continent)
you mean to tell me that blacks are more welcome in those above countries than they are in America?
I've been to thailand, don't understand thai, but my local yokel (who is an OKP by the way) was telling me thais are MAAAD racist against blacks and they were basically calling me all types of niggers and whatnot in thai.
i'm sure you knew thailand was under a kingdown and he rules with a tight fist
but the military has control of the country now
so you want us to go from DEMOCRACY to doing whatever the dudes with the biggest guns say to do?
That's smart.

Hungary and Spain are TOTALLY opened minded, right?
Hungary has no neo-nazi groups and Spain don't throw banana peels on soccer fields neither, right?
I have a story about my time in Budapest but I'll spare it for the sake of brevity.
And I like how you tried to carve out SOUTHERN spain
as if you could carve out the NORTHEAST usa
that's rich.

noway, finland & sweden
why didn't you just say SCANDANAVIA?????
do you have a prediliction for creamy skin white women?
that's the vibe I'm getting from you
you like them Blacked.com type white jawns, huh?


belize, i THINK this might be your best choice
MIGHT be
this also depends on how much bread you got
i don't know the exact innerworkings of their govt but I think this might be the best on your list
i do know that white America HEAVILY CONTROLS what goes on inside belize tho
white Americans run the biggest an best resorts in Belize therefore dictating the belizean economy.
hotels = tourist dolalrs but before that BIG CONSTRUCTION $$$$

panama, seems cool. i've only been to Bocas Del Toro.
my nephews grandad is from there and lives in David
my niece has been living in Panama City and Bocas the last two years
she goes between her offices in both cities.
I guess she likes it well enough to want to stay a couple more years

how do you think i'm "scared" of Africa?
how many countries on the continent have you visited?
i bet you I've been to more than you have
spent more time in each than you have as well.
don't come at me like that.
you're going off by what ppl have TOLD you have these countries
my passport stamps says i've "one upped you" on ALL of these countries (and more on the continent) then


you're saying you don't care about infrastructure

who are these 13,000,000 blacks?


why would my grandkids fare better by me moving to Sweden at 37 years old and setting up shop there when they won't have any ties to the country?
my American acenstry goes back at least to the mid 1700s with my family having a city in Texas named after them
still have the city today but of course only a couple hundred people live in the town and 90% of them share my DNA
my ancestors have shed blood and sweat is in the soil all over East Texas and Central Alabama

no matter what my family will NEVER be Finnish or Swedish
but we will ALWAYS be AMERICAN!!!
why?
WE BUILT this fucking country!!!

anyhow, you say you "work with computers"
wtf does THAT mean?
please, be more specific
we all know how to google "Database Architect" or whatever it is that you'll type

i'm done.

>I'm renewing my passport

why is this even bandwidth worthy?
it costs what $130 to renew a passport?
why hasn't this already been done?
unless you don't plan on going anywhere
i didnt have a valid passport for two years
2013 - 2015
why?
because i knew i wasn't going anywhere and i was focused on building my family
i got married
quickly got pregnant thereafter
and just hunkered down with my wife and kid
until my boy got married in jamaica shortly after my kid's 1st bday
so i renewed mine, got my daughter hers, and off to Negril and MoBay we went

i'm just hearing a lot of excuses from you why you aren't doing stuff

why'd you come back from japan?
why'd you leave norway?
they wouldn't let you stay in those countries?

I.e. Not culturally ingrained in society that black people are meant to be killed. I left Norway to go to school. Left Japan to go to Hawaii because who wouldn't trade a concrete jungle like Tokyo for an island paradise. Learned the hard way Hawaii didn't have much going in regard to jobs and in hindsight probably made a mistake leaving Japan.

Admittedly I've been procrastinating on the passport, but with devil 1 or 2 about to take office I need to hustle and get the ball rolling.

Clearly you love America. That's totally cool. Good luck with that.

We're in this very post talking about him presenting
evidence to the public that the prosecution can use
or not.

Now I don't know the ins and outs of that. I just
know it's been done. I also know he has to go
through hell to get it done, which is why I say
"if he actually gives a damn."

He usually demands that a prosecutor not use a grand
jury. He has also asked that a Municipal Judge
weigh in on the evidence.

What he presents to the public can put pressure on the prosecutor. But if a prosecutor decides to prosecute or not, or use evidence or not it will never be this dude's fault. As was already said, his purpose is to keep this in the public eye.
>
>
>>Why would his request for a different prosecutor be

There is no legal avenue for him to get a new prosecutor. If he has some information as to why the prosecutor should be replaced he could present that to the public and that pressure could get a DA to assign a different prosecutor. I don't know if that's what you mean.

Where are you getting this from?

Also him asking/requesting/trying to get something done in a criminal investigation for a victim is much different than an attorney representing a party in the case (state/defendant) requesting to get something done. Seems like folks have that part confused.

-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.

he didn't lose any of those cases. he didn't represent any of the parties in the prosecutions of the persons accused of killing those folks.

he represented the families of the victims - which basically means he arranged press conferences and made statements on behalf of the families. he also may have advised the families when they spoke to police and may have accompanied them when they spoke w/police. but that's about it, AFAIK.

fuck you.

it's what the families seem to want - at minimum, at least. sure they want some criminal charge filed and a conviction secured but Mr. Crump can't promise any of those things. and i'm sure he doesn't promise any of those things. he promises what he seems to deliver - his ability to bring attention such that whatever the police and prosecutors are going to do in these cases is done under a huge spotlight w/the whole world watching. also he promises to speak for the victims and the family when necessary. i doubt he's offering much else.

fuck you.

unless the families are hiring him to represent them as plaintiffs in wrongful death civil suits.

i haven't heard that's what's up. and these folks in here talking about 'losing all of these cases' are off base. b/c the families aren't parties in the criminal prosecutions of the persons who have murdered these young black folks. the various states are the ones who prosecute, not the families. the families have no standing in the criminal cases. so Mr. Crump is not representing them in the criminal matters.

fuck you.

131. "In the USA ALL criminal prosecutions are handled by a government."
In response to Reply # 130


  

          

City, county, state or federal. Period.

No - private individuals cannot 'press charges' in a criminal matter. They can go to a police department and sign a criminal complaint and based on that the city/county/state/fedz might file a criminal charge. In a murder case the police investigate and present the result to a prosecutor. The prosecutor may further investigate. They will then decide if they want to seek a criminal charge either by filing an information or asking a grand jury to issue an indictment. At no point does the victim's family get to bring any charge. The family has NO standing to bring a criminal case.

The family can file a civil law suit seeking money but they cannot seek to have anyone put in prison by way of a criminal charge.

fuck you.

133. "This was a serious question?"
In response to Reply # 130


  

          

Not to be funny but I see you in a lot of these posts. Not understanding how the justice system works (or fails) by some one so interested in these stories is kind of problematic imo.

-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.

If we don't understand that, how can we demand justice and change? Change from what?

Wanting to understand the system is step 1. I guess i'm just suprided

But apparently they can push from the top as well. So I'm thankful to SoWhat for his input and thankful to you for showing me the aforementioned.

Do you like Old Bay Seasoning? I got some extra you might could use in a hot bath or something.

In response to Reply # 144


  

          

There are just some FUNDAMENTAL items one must know before their input is taken seriously on the topic.

What you did was essentially show everyone you had no FOUNDATIONAL idea of what you were talking about all these years and your suggestions were based upon illthoughts.

How you going to lecture on black history but don't know who Frederick Douglas, WEB DuBois or Booker Talifero Washington are?

Fundamentals

In response to Reply # 145


  

          

but if attitudes such as yours and Cenario's are representative of the community as a whole then it really is everyone for themselves.

Knowing and understanding that the system and dominant culture at large are corrupt towards our people group is not dependent upon knowing that prosecutors are state appointed.

You should leave the fault finding in what I type to Legs. He's much better at it.

*Does Bayes' theorem account for the probability that the harder you try to sound intelligent the more likely your are to fail at it? Because that was a terrible analogy.

them. This is not our home and if it is it's HIGHLY dysfunctional and no one should stay in a dysfunctional home, but for those that do stay, a higher education might help keep situations like this at bay to some degree.

It bothers me because too many of us are either falling for the same old lies and trying the same old approaches and seemingly not pursuing the things that can actually get us as a group or individuals out of this mess.

Oh and I'm black so I feel it should bother me.

Now compare that answer to a pretty basic question with your own.

Leave by leaving man. Get some in demand skills and get a job overseas. Learn a language and leave. Get some money together and start a business elsewhere. There's a lot of ways to get out.

what to be mad about.

The criminal justice system is rigged heavily in the favor of the cops and that's why they feel they can do whatever they want.

Bringing attention to stuff was his game. He did
this when lawyers already had taken the case, so
it's obviously not the attorney's job to "bring
attention." Like I said above, he has quite a
bit of sway in the outcome of the case, provided
he actually gives a damn.

In response to Reply # 139


  

          

He just happens to be a lawyer. But he's there for the families who are NOT parties in the criminal prosecutions of these murderers. Each case is called 'People v. Murderer' or 'State v. Murderer' depending on the state. That's bc it's the STATE government versus the criminal defendant in court. Those are the only 2 parties. Crump is there to speak in public for the families and to help them apply pressure on the prosecutors to seek justice. That's pretty much it. Sometimes that pressure comes in the form of a private investigation with results released to the public. So it may seem like he's prosecuting but instead he's showing the public some of the evidence the prosecutor could/should use to get justice. That's pressure. But he's not actually prosecuting any of these murderers.

fuck you.

I wonder why is he always the one that shows up?

Are those others just not willing to donate their services pro bono the way he does?

If anything, I think that minimal amount of drug use and exposure calls into question her so-called "drug recognition expertise".

Officer Betty Shelby charged with first-degree manslaughter in fatal shooting of Terence Crutcher

Posted: Thursday, September 22, 2016 2:52 pm
World Staff Reports |


District Attorney Steve Kunzweiler has directed his staff to file a first-degree manslaughter charge against Tulsa Police Officer Betty Shelby in the fatal shooting of Terence Crutcher.
A warrant has been issued for her arrest and arrangements made for her surrender.
Kunzweiler filed the charge after reviewing dash cam video and helicopter video that captured the shooting. He also reviewed citizen 911 calls, witness interviews and other evidence, according to a news release from the District Attorney's Office.
"Officer Shelby, although now charged, is presumed to be innocent under the law until a judge or jury determines otherwise," the release states.
If convicted, Shelby could face at least four years in prison. The maximum sentence for that felony count would be life in prison.
The charges indicate that Shelby "reacted unreasonably by escalating the situation from a confrontation with Mr. Crutcher, who was not responding to verbal commands and was walking away from her with his hands held up, becoming emotionally involved to the point that she over reacted."
According to an affidavit, Shelby made statements that she was in fear for her life and was yelling at Crutcher for him to stop and get on his knees, though it was unlikely she believed him to be in possession of a firearm.
"Although Mr. Crutcher was wearing baggy clothes, Officer Shelby was not able to see any weapons or bulge indicating (a) weapon was present," the affidavit reads.
Marq Lewis, leader of the activist group We the People Oklahoma, was in attendance for Kunzweiler’s announcement. Lewis held a news conference immediately afterward and said though the community group was happy about the charges, “There’s no celebration. Because Terence is still deceased. There’s no celebration.
“But what there is is there’s a relief and an ease that the system has worked and the system is working. And that’s something that the community has to believe in, when the system works as you guys know that we went through this with the Bob Bates situation. The system is working. It’s good to see that.”
Lewis said they had been talking to attorneys about possible charges, and had been told first-degree or second-degree manslaughter were the possible charges.
“We were looking for man 2, but we got man 1, which was even better,” Lewis said.
Mayor Dewey Bartlett said in a statement after the announcement that the city will ensure justice is done.
"Our Tulsa Police Department worked quickly to provide all the information to the District Attorney," Bartlett said. "I appreciate their efforts as well as the District Attorney’s usual thorough evaluation of the rules of law for which we are all accountable. These are important steps to ensure that justice and accountability prevails."

of course i want her charged and tried and hopefully convicted if the state proves its case.

but...how come this is all happening so swiftly here where in other similar cases in other jurisdictions the police and prosecutors do everything they can to slow down the proceedings? those other cases tend to involve men officers. this one involves a woman officer.

i dunno.

fuck you.

That lacked the clear video evidence this one does. If you read her attorney's account of the stop before the backup arrived, she does come off as being startled and frazzled by the entire interaction before the events on the video, and that's how her own attorney is painting it PRE-CHARGES.

i don't buy that it's that simple.

1. The Tulsa police released the cop's name the day after the shooting.
2. They showed the victim's family the video the day after the shooting b4 releasing it publicly.
3. The cop's history was released quickly.
4. Within 2 days she's charged criminally.
5. The prosecutor accused her of becoming 'emotionally involved'.

Cases involving men offices in other jurisdictions who were at least as guilty of murder or manslaughter as this woman didn't get any of this treatment. Most importantly the prosecutor saying she became 'emotionally involved' is sexism dog whistle language. No prosecutor would accuse a man officer of becoming emotional and overreacting during one of these cases. She was no more emotional or frazzled than Darren Wilson in Ferguson but that case was treated differently. That was a man officer though.

fuck you.

In response to Reply # 180


          


>1. The Tulsa police released the cop's name the day after the
>shooting.
It was being disclosed by an open records request lot from the Tulsa World, and the courts have lived through the negatives of delaying ORRs recently with the Ken Bates and Sheriff Glanz cases.

>2. They showed the victim's family the video the day after the
>shooting b4 releasing it publicly.
As part of their efforts to assuage the negativity that is gripping other places where this is happening (Charlotte).
>3. The cop's history was released quickly.
Again, from an ORR.TPD actually delayed releasing their application package on her because the person in charge of employee records was on vacation (seriously).
>4. Within 2 days she's charged criminally.
Community requested quick action and the evidence from the video and her statements seem an open and shut cause for charges.
>5. The prosecutor accused her of becoming 'emotionally
>involved'.
Her OWN ATTORNEY did that in a public statement on Wednesday to national press.

Did Wilson's own representation ever issue statements calling his client emotionally unstable while the investigation was ongoing? Again, a lot of that concern has to go back to how she decided to get in front of this case. It may be poor representation, or it could be an indication that she is accepting of her guilt.

Can we expect the same in Tulsa when a man officer is the defendant?

Has all of the work done by BLM and other activists begun to pay off? In Tulsa??

^ that's why I'm curious about how much sexism or misogyny or anti-woman-cop sentiment is at work here.

fuck you.

203. "Tulsa has dealt with this before and very recently"
In response to Reply # 200


          

These are the gains from a respected system of response and centralized activist group (We the People Oklahoma) that was already put in place and got a (flawed) response to a similar shooting (Eric Harris) and gained enough respect as to have private meetings with the TPD and mayor throughout the week to discuss the situation. Yeah, sadly this likely is isolated to just this one metropolitan area, but the continued scrutiny of such a fresh and recent similar situation likely led to swifter action here.

Also and again, I don't know why you are discounting the shooter's own representation and actions here. She apparently was out of the state as of yesterday, in hiding due to death threats. Her lawyer's statements are tacit admissions of guilt for wrongful death, so she likely wants to get this moving along as quickly as possible.

Why do you want a slow-bleed?

208. "Again,"
In response to Reply # 203


  

          

I just wonder how much of this swift and seemingly appropriate response by police and prosecutors is the result of activism and how much is the result of misogyny. I wonder if we'd see police and prosecutors treat a man officer the same way given the same facts. Bc no other cop has been handled this way in any of the other similar cases AFAIK.

You can't answer my question but I appreciate your input, B9. We won't know until later, i suspect. I hope it turns out that the police and prosecutors are purely motivated by a sincere desire to do the right thing in this case but I doubt that bc police and prosecutors are rarely so motivated. Maybe I think that way bc I'm black or bc I'm a defense attorney. Either way - I doubt their handling of this case is clean. I would love to be wrong. We won't know until later, I suspect.

fuck you.

211. "Agreed. "
In response to Reply # 208


          

Hopefully, the conversations surroundings actual changes to and issues in this police department continue with the community and We the People and it isn't all put to a stop purely because of the charge. Also, there are other disturbing elements to this incident that a single charge don't negate, like why they left Crutcher without aid for two and a half minutes and why there was a lack of communication between Shelby and the officer that deployed his taser. More charges or, at the least, punishments should follow.

The big discussion point and action plan that they are already looking to address is the disparity of community policing that goes on in North Tulsa. TPD has to get that right despite crippling budget problems.

In response to Reply # 203


          

a female cop is considered a minority hire and cops arent really supportive of women on the force unless you are truly one of them which is rare.

if this was a white male best believe they would prolly put more of a fight.

Now lets get back to hoping this murderer goes to jail.

Given all the priming and protection police are given by their guidelines of using deadly force, especially since you are then wading into the Zimmerman territory of trying to prove if someone genuinely thought their life was in danger.

im not an attorney either but from watching real life crime shows, it seems proving pre-meditation to murder is a much higher threshold to prove than manslaughter, where malice doesn't have to be present to convict.

184. "does the quick turnaround of charges here, suggest that "
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

no charges are coming in Minnesota, baton rouge, and north Miami?



bc that would be absolutely completely ridiculously horrible.



theres already no faith in the federal lack of justice dept taking charge or bringing any consequences, except after the fact





~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

or maybe the charges in Tulsa is just to prevent another charlotte boilover/state-of-emergency situation, and the not guilty verdict will be a year from now when ppl have moved on to the next police murder....?

Her being a woman makes the the idea that her fear was unreasonable more palatable to the police and prosecutors. Drumming her out of the service is easier for them bc she's not really one of their own. The blue wall gets thin around women officers.

Or maybe there's something else about HER - but this about her more than anything, I think. Like the Tulsa police were looking for a reason to get rid of her and this case gave them their opportunity.

fuck you.

pockets

what may be getting lost with the video is that it's not the entire interaction

she knew he was unarmed

she knew there was no weapon

and still shot him

if she gets off too, we may as well give up

-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.

245. "Autopsy report released: Terence Crutcher had PCP in his system"

This is going to be central to the defense, not that it's a reason to kill someone like this was the fucking Philippines.

The Oklahoma State Medical Examiner's Office on Tuesday released its final public report on the death of Terence Crutcher, who was found to have PCP in his system when he died Sept. 16 after being shot by a Tulsa Police officer.
The report included results of a toxicology analysis that found Crutcher, 40, had 96 nanograms per milliliter of phencyclidine, or PCP, in his bloodstream at the time he died. A Tulsa Police homicide official told the Tulsa World in September that officers found PCP in Crutcher's vehicle during a search after his death but did not say at that time if there was evidence indicating he used it.
Crutcher died around 8:20 p.m. Sept. 16 after being shot once by Tulsa Police Officer Betty Shelby in the 2300 block of East 36th Street North after she noticed his car was stopped in the middle of the road near Lewis Avenue. Shelby is charged with first-degree manslaughter in his death and had a judge enter a not guilty plea on her behalf Sept. 30.
She will appear in court Nov. 29 for a preliminary hearing.
