I bet in every single one of those cases when the cops showed with their guns drawn and said "get the fuck on the ground!" that's exactly what they did. That's what "without incident" means, they didn't resist, they didn't try to fight, they cooperated fully once law enforcement had the drop on them and that's why they are all still alive.

The reality is some of same things that get black men killed by each other is the same thing that gets them killed by cops. Nobody wants to be a "punk" and back down and they have to live and die with those choices. Sometimes you have to pick your battles and take a small L to avoid a much bigger L but some people don't get that until it's too late.

The cemetery is full of people that had points to prove.
