Heaven help us. How did police stops of Black people driving cars become the surest way to for a Black person to die? Why does this keep happening?

It all makes this 4-year-old Youtube video seem almost quaint.

White people need to see understand this cannot ever just be okay. And if they think we're too sensitive or exaggerating, ask yourselves exactly how many White people have you HEARD of in your lifetime have died because they had a traffic stop with police?

AND totally wrong.

AND would be outright laughable if they weren’t freakin’ TRAGIC.

And Embarrassing.

And Disgraceful.

And an Outrage.

And a Sin against humanity!

How does a law stand which makes Americans pay public servants at the same time that conflicting laws give the same servants the right to kill their benefactors?
