This Happened While The World Was Supposedly Watching..

Long before Black Lives Matter activists arrived on the scene. Long before Barack Obama was first elect­ed President send­ing the White under­class into a pan­icked fren­zy, or prob­a­bly a fren­zied panic.
Long before cell-phones had cam­eras, America rolled along as the police­man of the world dic­tat­ing it’s ver­sion of moral­i­ty to the rest of the hea­then world.[sic]
Bush invad­ed a Sovereign Iraq sup­pos­ed­ly to find weapons of mass destruc­tion. When none was found.….….…. because there was none, the nar­ra­tive changed to spread­ing democ­ra­cy. No one both­ered to chal­lenge America’s right to dic­tate to every­one else how they should live much less whether America had the legal, or more impor­tant­ly the moral author­i­ty to chas­tise any­one else.
America’s Black under­class long abused and mar­gin­al­ized, com­plained and marched and burned and com­plained some more about police killing and abus­ing them and no one lis­tened , no one cared.

America is a place in love with Law-Enforcement, some of it’s most beloved Actors played the role of valiant Sheriff’s, US Marshals and tough police officers.
Hollywood glo­ri­fied law-men on the sil­ver screen. Television stu­dios run cop shows like America’s most want­ed and Cops inces­sant­ly. The glo­ri­fi­ca­tion of the cop cul­ture is complete.
Turn on your tele­vi­sion and two clicks of the chan­nel and you are sure to find a cop show, the good guys always win.
The con­stant psy­cho­log­i­cal bom­bard­ment drills into those who watch the cops are the good guys. One is hard pressed to walk away feel­ing any­thing but some sort of love or affin­i­ty for the sup­posed good guys.

Juxtapose that with the lit­er­al in which there is a whole cat­e­go­ry of peo­ple you do not like. Why would you care or be both­ered when your hero take out the garbage?

Understanding white America’s posi­tion on police bru­tal­i­ty is not that dif­fi­cult , it may all have been summed up in the first paragraph.
At the height of the civ­il rights strug­gle Dr. King said the main prob­lem for the Negro in America was that of Police abuse.
Today more than half a cen­tu­ry after Dr.King died the num­ber one prob­lem fac­ing African-Americans in America is Police abuse.
Whether it’s,.…
♦ Ferguson Missouri.
♦ Cleveland Ohio.
♦ Akron Ohio.
♦ Beaver Creek Ohio.
♦ Columbia South Carolina.
♦ Houston Texas.
♦ Staten Island New York.
♦ Brooklyn New York. And all places between and beyond there is no dif­fer­ence in the way police treat Black cit­i­zens , in fact there is no dif­fer­ence in the way the states treat Black cit­i­zens. Why should the police be expect­ed to respect the rights of African Americans when the states clear­ly and unequiv­o­cal­ly do not?

After Ferguson ignit­ed into a full-scale move­ment a few pro­gres­sive Organizations start­ed tak­ing a more seri­ous look at police killings across America.
As a result of their work we learned that the prob­lem of American police killing unarmed civil­ians was far worse than we thought.
The Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) said it has no record of the amounts of American cit­i­zens or non-cit­i­zens police kill each year.
Law enforce­ment Agencies across the coun­try are not required by law to report how many peo­ple they kill.
In fact they are not required by law (in this sup­posed coun­try of laws) to report for accu­rate account­ing when they kill someone.
How can a coun­try which prides itself on the rule of law, not care about the wel­fare of it’s own cit­i­zens even at the per­il of their ulti­mate demise?
Is there a rea­son that the thou­sands of police agen­cies across the coun­try were nev­er required and still aren’t required to report to Federal Authorities when they kill someone?

The United States has pon­tif­i­cat­ed on this issue of sup­posed law enforce­ment abuse of cit­i­zens in oth­er nations for decades. They have lec­tured the Chinese , the Cubans, the Iranians , the Jamaicans and every­one else over whom they want to exert moral superiority.
So too has the United States pon­tif­i­cat­ed on the issue of human rights across the Globe when the most despi­ca­ble and vir­u­lent brand of racial dis­crim­i­na­tion has been per­pet­u­at­ed and still con­tin­ue across America like it“s 1920.
In fact Democratic Vermont US Senator Patrick Joseph Leahy cham­pi­oned a Bill which cuts fund­ing to law enforce­ment agen­cies which are accused of abuse in coun­tries where America extends finan­cial largess. Jamaica has felt the pinch of that bill.

WHICH BRINGS US TO THE REAL QUESTION…

If the United States is con­cerned about police killings why has­n’t the American states moved to ensure that their myr­i­ad police depart­ments are held account­able for killing their citizens?
Why has­n’t state Legislatures moved to ensure that there are no ambi­gu­i­ties about when an offi­cer of the law may use his/​her weapon?
They haven’t and they won’t because the peo­ple being killed are not important.
Not only unarmed Blacks are being killed . Unarmed Latinos and whites as well are being killed. Yet black men are being mur­dered at a far more alarm­ing rate than peo­ple of oth­er races. Yet despite the mass out­cry and unrest they con­tin­ue to kill peo­ple under dubi­ous cir­cum­stances and lie that they feared for their lives or that they thought the per­son had a weapon.

For the year 2015 , despite a micro­scope on Police they still man­aged to kill 1202 peo­ple while we are looking.
It’s not just about police killings. It is far worse. It’s about police killing unarmed cit­i­zens some­thing which would nev­er be tol­er­at­ed in most of the places where America seeks to over­lord on moral­i­ty and ethics.
If they man­age to kill twelve hun­dred and two peo­ple (1202) while the eyes of the world are watch­ing just how many were they killing while no one both­ered to look ?
Just stop for awhile and think about the bod­ies of one thou­sand two hun­dred and two dead Americans laid out side by side.Then imag­ine for a minute that they were killed by the very peo­ple whom are paid to pro­tect life.
Houston I believe we have a seri­ous epi­dem­ic of state spon­sored murder.

The names of some of those killed by police in 2015 and 2014 by police . If this does not shock you I don’t know what will.
