[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am truly not understanding how this is a racist incident on behalf of the cops. If they shot through a wall in response to being shot at and unfortunately hit someone, that is an awful tragedy this woman lost her life but I don't see how it's racist. Someone please enlighten me.

It is racist because any negative action on person of color is always presumed by them to be because of their color.  [/quote]

This incident is just the straw that broke the camel’s back. Murkey and not as well-defined as Ahmed Aubrey or George Floyd. But after so.many.innocent.people.died people just can’t take it anymore. If your every day thought is “I can’t even be safe in my own home” life is really rough. So Breonna Taylor, shot in her apartment because her boyfriend didn’t hear the police, Ahmed Aubrey, killed for being black and autistic waiting for the library to open, George Floyd, killed for being a petty criminal, the 12 yo kid a few years ago, killed for playing in the park with a toy gun. It just goes on and on and then people break. Is the Breonna Taylor case cut and dried racism? Murky. But is it tinder to community anger, sure.

I agree with this, but it doesn't help the cause to protest the murky cases. Protest the clear cut ones like Floyd, Aubrey, McClain, Garner...there are many of them! Breonna Taylor's killing was a tragedy but not the same as those.[/quote]
