The NYPD has shot & killed 4 people in the last 10 days.

Watch people in this subway car panic when police take out their guns & point them at a person they’re arresting.

People aren’t scared of the person being arrested. They’re scared of the police.
Some observations from people who were on the train.

In March, a jury in Allegheny County acquitted police officer Michael Rosfeld of the murder of 17-year-old Antwon Rose.

Allegheny County (which covers Pittsburgh) is known for police brutality and prosecutorial misconduct. Tomorrow, its DA Stephen Zappala is up for re-election.
There is stark racism in Zappala's prosecution of cases.

In 2016 and 2017, despite making up 20% of the population, more than 80% of children charged as adults in Allegheny County were Black, and 100% of children sentenced to jail or prison were Black.

In the 20 years that Zappala has been DA, he has brought no charges in 18 of 22 police homicides.

Texas plans to execute Rodney Reed on November 20, despite a comprehensive showing that he is actually innocent. Powerful evidence implicates Jimmy Fennell, a former cop convicted of sex-related kidnapping charges, as the real killer. theappeal.org/dna-testing-co…
This is Jimmy Fennell, who was a police officer until he was sentenced to prison for kidnapping and "improper sexual activity with a person in custody."
The victim in this case, Stacey Stites was 21-years-old. She was found dead on the side of a dirt road near Bastrop, Texas, on April 23, 1996.

So, not only was Jonathan Lee Burgsteiner (the father of these children) arrested for killing a young woman in a hit and run case, but it was his wife's parents who reported him to police.

He returned their car to them damaged after borrowing it, saying he had hit a deer.
The in-laws actually went to check the crime scene when they read details about it in the media, before they reported Burgsteiner to the police, who praised their courage.
But heroes in this story, not so much. The mother-in-law's Facebook page (now private) apparently spouts the same sort of racism as Burgsteiner. Family values and all that.

Should @AndrewYang worry about reaching & SECURING the Black Vote? #YangGang

@AndrewYang Thread 1: Pandering Vs Meaningful Policy

In 2020..Politicians must spend more effort talking to us not at us..".that candidates’ efforts to engage black communities often focus more on symbolic gestures than MEANINGFUL interactions." #BlacksForYang

vox.com/identities/201…
@AndrewYang What I really want the #YangGangFamily to understand ...ANYONE specifically talking to us about our own issues different to yours is NOT PANDERING...It's pandering when it's all about style (sounding cool, playing hiphop, photo ops etc..) and ZERO SUBSTANCE..no fake interest.

☝As Hive operations steadily get interrupted and/or shut down, the network of communication that allows them to direct the people they're blackmailing, threatening and straight up mind controlling gets hit hard, too. If they cannot communicate, their programming breaks down.
☝In nature, bees rely on communication for the Hive to survive and flourish. They use pheromones to send messages; direct operations, identify others of their Hive, and track each other. If a bee is cut off from its hive it cannot find its way back, & if it's cut off long enough
☝it will eventually stop recognizing the pheromone language of its hive completely. The subhuman cannibal Hive that has controlled our planet works the same way. There's a lot of talk out there about MK ultra and mind control, but this critical detail is almost never mentioned.

Gavin McInnes: "I cannot recommend violence enough. It is a really effective way to solve problems."

@nytimes: "Hipster Gavin McInnes is willing to get physical at times."

This is beyond normalizing a self-proclaimed violent thug, but actively promoting him. Fascist apologia.
“I started this gang called the Proud Boys. “We will kill you." That’s Proud Boys in a nutshell.”

“Like Bill the Butcher & the Bowery Boys, we will assassinate you”

Viral video appears to show Gavin McInnes calling for Trump supporters to commit violence rawstory.com/?p=1373053
Getting gangbangers off the streets of New York. (Isn't 38 a little old to be calling yourself "Proud Boy"?)
