MATTER
This will be a major step and could make a huge change in the violence against police.The government has issued out body Cams to prevent incidents like “Michael Brown” From happening, but they have situations like “Eric Gardner”, yelling for help stating “I Can’t Breathe”, yet instill the officers get off, no charges and the city pays out a 5 million dollar lawsuit. This is in justice at its best. This shows that the body cams or just for front. In the end the law will always side with the law. It seems that theses cops get slaps on the risk for crimes that they commit. The justice system is failing the black community and I know it’s not by default. We have to get our communities back on point. We have to stop the black on black crime before we can conquer our true battle. We will always have many against us so it’s so useless to be against each other. Together we are strong, but apart we are very weak.
It seems that things must go to an extreme before something is done to cease this hate. Why did nine people have to lose their lives before they removed/banned the confederate flag? , Why did a father, son, brother, etc. have to lose their lives before they required Body Cams? , you have to ask why sometimes and the reasons are just senseless to me. It’s not fair that America has created such a hostile country for the culture of African American. As I write, day by day incidents still occur all involving police and mistreatment. We must take a stand and start the change ourselves. We have to stand for something or we will continue to fall for anything.
