And let's be clear here.

He wasn't "waving it around".

He was holding it with a shooter's grip and pointing it at people's heads such that only the pipe end was visible extending from his hand.


I made that post before seeing the video. I am hoping that dumbass who made the post in the OP made her post before seeing the video as well, because there is no way someone with any sense can look at that video and say "well if people would have just gone out in the neighborhood and gotten to know him".

Even if I did know him.. If I saw him doing that, there is no way in hell to tell that wasn't a gun unless you were right upon him. I don't care if it is my best friend, if I look outside and see him randomly going up to people, pointing something at them, that looks like a gun, as if he was going to shoot them, I am calling the police.

Call it what you will but I intend to never live in a predominantly black area again. It's an utterly miserable experience.



I worked with a black guy at one point who grew up in the hood. This guy had his head on straight and was professional and well spoken, and eventually made a good bit of money and moved into and almost exclusively white neighborhood.

During a conversation one day I asked him why he would want to live somewhere where he was such a minority. He looked at me point blank and asked me “would you want to live around a bunch of...”well, let’s just say he used a word that would get me banned.


But he was right. It’s more about culture than color.

the transcript said the 911 caller said "yeah, he have a gun"

Doesnt sound like a white person turned him in

The missing piece of her outrage is probably the race of the officer that shot him.

If the shooter was also black, she can’t have outrage. So let’s just assume that the caller was white and have outrage anyway.

Pretending to have a gun and putting it in someone’s face is felony assault.

He committed multiple counts of felony assault before the cops took him out.

Excellent police work.

Edit- When he points it at the mom with the kid that elevates it to aggravated status as well as felony child endangerment.

So calling the law on people disturbing the peace is white supremacy?

Disturbing the peace would be if he was actually waving around a shower head and yelling jibberish in the street

So they knew he was mentally challenged but didn’t do dick to get the guy help so he wouldn’t get lit up by the police? Why didn’t the neighbors who knew him go out there and help the guy themselves since that’s the expectation of any white person that’s moved into the neighborhood?

Way to perpetuate a cultural stereotype of turning a blind eye to those who need help in terms of mental health. But those white people, how dare they.

to anyone responding to my post about #saheedvassell with some form of "WELL, DID YOU SEE THE VIDEO?!?!" i'd like to point out that none of the people that called 911 were people that he approached with the shower head. they hardly even flinched. because they knew it was a shower head, and they probably recognized him from the neighborhood, too. did YOU see the video? that's not how a block full of people react when someone flagrantly waves around a shiny handgun. so, have a seat, your racism is showing.

Facebook Update from Mel Flannery. Total loon. She’s white, too. Hideous, typical looking white moonbat.

Well, she can take solace in the fact that if the neighborhood is truly being gentrified into a productive and nice place to live, it won't have the current predominant demographic make up it has right now for very much longer.

Problem is the snowflakes who do the gentrifying don’t know the difference between a shower head and a gun.

Evidently.

According to the SJW, black folks don't behave in ways the rest of us consider peaceful and quiet.

That's a prime example of racism by low expectation.

I know several decent middle class black families that fled NBR for SBR or the burbs. The culcha steals their shite and breaks into their homes too.

This story reminds me of a guy named Ray that rides around my neighborhood on a tricycle picking up random junk and singing gospel on the street corners. He wouldn’t pretend a shower head was a gun and point it at people’s heads though.


Here’s a story about when some homeless people stole his bike and the neighborhood (gentrifying whiteys) bought him a new bike.
