La « riposte », le « choc d’autoritĂ© », « d’efficacitĂ© »  Le vocabulaire du ministĂšre de l’IntĂ©rieur semble de plus en plus similaire Ă  celui des rĂ©gimes autoritaires, qui appliquent une logique de guerre contre la population, une guerre contre les minoritĂ©s. #DefundThePolice

Calling the cops on Black people for no reason is the definition of racism, period.

If you're white and you need cops to make you feel safe anytime you're around a Black person you are categorically a racist doing white supremacy in real time.

Want to know where cities can get the money to pay for healthcare, childcare, housing, food security? We can stop paying out millions in taxpayer dollars for police misconduct. We can start there and add in overtime fraud. You can do something with that kind of money. https://gothamist.com/news/nyc-taxpayers-on-the-hook-for-more-than-117m-in-police-misconduct-payouts-last-year

The Grand Rapids Police Department (#GRPD ) in West Michigan, USA have executed another person of color. This state sponsored terrorism must stop. The state as funded, supported, and legally defended law enforcement’s continued efforts to beat, harass, and murder citizens. They’ve been doing it pretty much forever. Disproportionally, people of color are at the receiving end of this violence.
At this point, running from law enforcement, especially as a black male, is a survival tactic. It is a fight or flight reaction to generational trauma form the abuse and murder at the hands of police. This makes it less a choice, and more an innate human reaction to danger.
An attack at one citizen, is an attack on all citizens. We are all in danger everyday at the hands of law enforcement. This pattern has to end, and it will take drastic measures to do so.
Get active in your local communities. Run for office. Demand change. Let your voice be heard. Stand up for the basic human right to life.

The man in this video was prone on the ground, being attacked by a dog, after what appears to be an unlawful stop, and shot in the back by two officers within seconds. This is straight up murder.
How is a person suppose to react after generations of attacks at the hands of police, while also being attacked by a police dog, and having commands shouted at them? Confusion and violence seems to be the point
 a point leading to murder the state can say was “justified” because “resisting” and causing the officers to “fear for their lives.” That’s also called, bullshit. The system is broken beyond repair. It needs to be broken down and rebuilt.
