What is happening to this country? While the trial of the killing George Floyd is still going on, a Minnesota policewoman shoots and kills a black man at a traffic stop. She supposedly mistook her gun for a taser! How is that possible? I understand that the gun and taser are supposed to be worn on different sides of the body. Do they look and feel the same? Is it true that cops have trouble differentiating other objects from guns? They have shot people and then claim that they thought the person was holding a gun when in fact that person was holding something else. So cops have trouble identifying their own guns now?
Then you have the cop who sprayed maze on an army lieutenant wearing his uniform at another traffic stop. The soldier was in a car without a license plate but had a temporary paper license in the back windshield. The cops couldn't recognize the temporary license? There must be many of those on the road everyday and once the car is stopped, they should have seen the license. People have said that black men should not wear hoodies or gang clothing to make cops more suspicious of them. This guy was in an army uniform! What else can he wear to make him more of a good guy? Yet he still was treated like a criminal!
Couple weeks ago the big stories were attacks and killings of Asians. I am sure the attacks are still going on. But there is no attention to that now as mass shootings and cops attacking blacks are once again taking over the news. So many things are wrong now that the school shooting in Tennessee today will hardly be noticed among the national news tomorrow.
