I said police shooting, and you try to make it black on black crime. What was your question about hypocrisy? One more time!
Those last two sentences. What if the cop is pointing a gun at you for something you are, like your skin colour, and didn't care if you were guilty or innocent, and had a rep for executing people just like you. Think fight or flight might kick in? Black people get murdered for being black. Compared to that, what's taking a knee?
If Kaepernick was taking a knee to protest against the THOUSANDS of blacks murdered in this country every year white people would be more accepting. I'm sure they would still disagree with it because it's the flag but that would make more sense.
In this country, Police shoot something like 1,000 people a year and about 700 of those are white, 300 are black. About 24 of those blacks are unarmed. Now, maybe they were fighting with the police officer, maybe the officer was a woman and couldn't defend herself without using lethal force, and I'm sure some of them are unjustified and those cases should be prosecuted. So, blacks are protesting the less than 24 cases but not protesting the THOUSANDS of cases of black on black crime but we're not supposed to mention those because you don't care about black on black crime. You just want to point out the bad whitey's.
AND those cases where the 24 blacks are killed the blacks almost always have some culpability because they were doing something wrong, either they are carrying a gun or trying to get away and risking others lives. Now, that does not justify what the cops are doing but you get into a vehicle chase for miles and miles and watch someone almost kill other people and the anger and adrenaline builds up.
It's easy to sit back and judge when you watch a movie of something, it's different when your life is on the line because some career criminal keeps stealing hard working peoples cars and risking others lives because they don't want to get a real job and they were taught that they have an excuse forever called slavery.
