The men that carried out these HEINOUS CRIMES are THUGS AND CRIMINALS with the legal authority to do so with impunity. @pushingblack On January 24th, Six YT officers in Braxton, Mississippi turned off their bodycams before illegally entering a home without a search warrant. A federal lawsuit reveals what happened. The officers claimed they were responding to a drug report, but when there were no drugs to be found, these cops didn’t stop. Instead, they proceeded to torture Michael Jenkins and Eddie Parker. They shocked them over and over with their tasers, beat them and kicked them. They waterboarded them. They even tried to rape the men with a sex toy. Throughout the night, they tried to force a fake confession out of the men, hurling racist slurs and accusing them of committing “racial violations” like dating YT women. They threatened to kill the men, holding their guns to their heads repeatedly. • At 11:40 PM, Deputy Hunter Elward placed his gun in Jenkins’ mouth and shot, shattering his jaw and irreparably damaging his tongue. He stumbled out of the house and fell to the ground and was just left there with no assistance for 20 minutes. Eventually, EMS showed up. Jenkins survived the life-threatening injuries, but his tongue had to be removed and he is now unable to speak. Both men are facing unspeakable trauma and will have a battle to find peace in their minds after being subjected to what can only be described as racial terrorism."

This is a perfect example of how..."
in fairness, i am kind of skeptical that being armed will really help you against the literal, actual cops, particularly if you’re a minority in this kind of situation. maybe it’d act as a preemptive deterrent—but if it doesn’t they’d then have pretext to murder you, and they’d probably get away with it.
Oh, for sure, with the cops pretty much anyone would be unlucky to have a firearm, especially in this instance, but if the hate is so severe that the police will do shit like this then what’s stopping regular people out on the streets?
