America didn’t learn anything from George Floyd—we have gotten worse Sponsored by LegalEqualizer
Ninety shots; 60 of those 90 shots hit him. They then proceeded to handcuff his lifeless body before they did anything else. If Jayland Walker was a loose tiger or lion that was actually attacking those Akron police officers that shot him 60 times, they would have treated him with more respect.
The same exact routine happens with every single one of these incidents, and we end up with the same outcome. Why?The first mistake that we repeat is that the media always accepts the initial version of the police’s story, and that is how the story is framed from the start. Rather than investing in communities and making sure that these communities don’t have food deserts, and have parks and resources and better schools, we have doubled down on investing even more money into the same police departments who have historically harassed and traumatized many people within these communities. New York City raised their total police budget to over $11 billion while simultaneously making a cut to their education budget, and people wonder why crime is on the rise.
