C.D. - Black Lives Only Matter When the Perpetrators are NOT Black

By now, you are all aware of the senseless shooting of Walter Scott, by Officer Michael Slager, who fired 8 shots at the fleeing man. 

Stopped for a broken taillight, a struggle ensued, with the results, seen on camera, a clear indictment against the policeman, who was not even remotely, in imminent danger. He was even seen in the footage, planting his stun-gun on Scott, to attempt to substantiate his radioed report, that it had been taken by Scott, during their encounter.

In my view, this is a capital case, plain and simple, yet I have to wonder what led to Scott's running from Slager, in the first place?

No grey or muddled areas, just blatant murder.

But, once again, the slogan of Black Lives Matter, emerges, despite the apparent apathy, otherwise (when black people brutalize or murder other black people).

While the travesty of this scenario will be prominently reviewed on Critical Discourse today (Saturday, April 11th), we must understand why it takes such, to get black people to express concern for black lives, UNLESS we believe that this is to be EXPECTED, for any number of reasons or factors. Nonetheless, we CANNOT allow such situations, as to what happened to Walter Scott,to obscure, mask, a more serious reality.

We also want to discuss the recent rebuff by a judge, of Obama's illegal immigration efforts, to grant amnesty.

In fact, anything that may be on your mind, is on the table, includiing what's on my ,mind, the latest developments around Mumia Abu-Jamal's medical condition and treatment thereof.
