If the cop had done the same but to a white person you would not have posted this thread.
This killing was a tradegy but from what i've read the colour of the persons skin was not the issue..
Well it happened in the same city as a copper is on trial for killing George floyd , another black man .

With respect if you read my post you will see that I think that the copper has made a terrible mistake . But she has since been charged in relation to his death .

I have no idea if this shooting was racially motivated or the death of George Floyd was racially motivated but people far more intelligent than you or I have the facts and figures to suggest that black men in America suffer racial discrimination at the hands of the police .

If news comes up about the shooting of a white guy in similar circumstances I will put it on here . If I don't, make sure you do .
