The fuck? I did not know about this at all.

@Ving_Rhames

My brother died in January of last year due to transplant complications (he had cancer). My family and I felt the entire medical team failed miserably and treated him and my family like shit (we are POC/puerto rican). The transplant was part of a clinical trial they signed off on so basically suing them wasn't an option. I was so angry that I got obsessed and started doing research about medical malpractice and stumbled upon those studies. Now I purposely request to be treated by people of color when I go to see a doctor. Those stats were horrifying.

Police are just not qualified enough to deal with people properly. They are shit at the majority of their job.

Nobody is qualified to do all the things law enforcement is currently expected to do. That is the point of potential reform. Police generally dont know how to respond to someone who has a medical condition, mental disability and so on. Ideally, they should call for medical assistance, but that didnt help in this case, unfortunately. This case is very sad and a fair reason for limiting the scope of police responsibilities.

You don't have to be a medical expert to not do what they did. They literally cut off their cameras why killing this person. They are murderers and they should rot in hell.

more people need to be aware of this case. i'd argue it's just as bad as george floyd's murder.

it gets even worse over time. yes, I agree. I think you can argue it's worse, especially with the addition of the EMTs failure.

I know it's hard man. But I also think that we owe it to ourselves to watch these things to see the truth for ourselves.

A small army of cops in riot gear forcefully broke up a peaceful viil for him.

Then threw tear gas at the protesters after funneling them into position.

To be fair the police are denying the latter, but they keep lying so much it's hard to take their word for it. Especially when there is footage of peaceful protesters being tear gassed floating around

Holy fucking shit! I've been trying to avoid saying "ACAB" but it's been getting increasingly difficult to do so.

Cops in Riot Gear Stormed a Violin Vigil for Elijah McClain. This is ****ed up. Are all the cops so brainless that no one thought this was dumb? Not good for optics for starters. How is this justified?

All those cops deserve to have the same done to them what they did to him. Literal subhuman waste. Not even fit to be considered in the same category as you and I.
