Dallas Shooting
 
Whats your take on this? Shits crazy. Shooter was identified as Micah Xavier Johnson, an apparent black nationalist who was also a veteran.




Here's a take that views this as racially motivated, which so far I agree with. What do you guys think about this shit?

When a black person gets shot, black people stand up and speak.

When a white person gets shot, white people go on with their lives expecting it to make world news without speaking on it.

I stay in DeSoto, TX (10 minutes away from Downtown Dallas) and it was really scary. I was on Illinois Ave (google it) by the dart station and it's an area known for its violence. I was there visiting my girlfriend at the time. So when we heard the shots we didn't think anything of it because it sounded like it was so far off.

But then we knew something wasn't right when we heard how many cops were responding to it. Literally, sirens started going off from every direction and we saw cops FLYING down the main avenue (we went to see because we're nosey asf) and that's when I took my girl and brought her to my house. Then when we got there we saw the news :( look at my twitter, you'll see @f6rrest

Depends on how often you discredit worldviews for stylistic approaches before even being exposed to them

edit: also whats wrong with a good late night basement sacrifice every now and then?

Yeah the medias fault primarily, and trigger happy police. I mean, when a black person gets shot by police the media blows things way out of proportion, when a white person gets shot they do not receive the same amount of media attention. Imo.

We dont expect white people getting shot to make the news cuz it almost never does. Between 50-60% of the 500+ people killed by police this year are white males and you dont hear anything about it because nobody cares about white cops killing white people, including white people because most white folks are conditioned to trust the system that THEY put in place for themselves. "They musta done something wrong to deserve that"-average white response to a police related shooting.

Roughly 20%-25% of police caused fatalities are black. Why is it such a big deal when black people get killed by cops when 2-3x as many white people are dying in the same way? Simple....90% of police officers are white and only 12 percent of the american population is black. The % of black people getting killed is double the % of their population share and the person killing them is almost guaranteed to be white. The proportions are fucked....if the police force was even 60-40 white, guaranteed it wouldnt be as big a deal. but 90-10? something is wrong.

So every police officer is either white or black?
I guess the Asians took all the office jobs then? lol

Anyways...you made some valid points just not too sure about your percentages.
