Idk how to make people understand this but there is no such thing as a justified police shooting.

The state has no right to take someone’s life.

Every time the police murder a black person the first thing people want to know is if that person was armed. If they were armed...

...at the time of the shooting, people (white people especially) will dismiss the killing as unfortunate but necessary violence committed against a criminal.
They never seem to question the official police narrative nor are they willing to criticize the environment, systems...

...or situation that created the incident that led to the escalation of violence in the first place.
These people who are willing to sacrifice black lives to state violence are okay with the official police narrative bc they personally benefit from these same systems of...

...oppression and violence.
