Sharpton, Crump shifting focus to white teen killed by police
Posted by Jbird on 7/15/21 at 10:48 am141
The Rev. Al Sharpton and civil rights attorney Ben Crump are shifting their focus to a white teenager who was killed by police in Arkansas, after advocacy efforts that largely focused on Black individuals who have died during police encounters.
Sharpton and Crump are now drawing attention to the death of 17-year-old Hunter Brittain, who was fatally shot during a traffic stop on June 23.
An officer was relieved of his duties earlier this month after failing to turn on his body camera during his alleged involvement in Brittain’s death.
Crump told The Washington Post in an interview that Brittain’s death will help muster “greater interracial support” amid a push to pass the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act in Congress because “his blood is now on this legislation, just as Floyd’s and Breonna Taylor’s blood is.”
So using a white kid to further your goals.

I’m not supporting anything associated with George Floyd
Is this an implicit admission that they can’t find a black person shot by the cops who was a total innocent?
I didn’t even hear these assholes agitating over the black guy who was in his apartment and got shot when the dumbfrick cop went to the wrong door and thought he was in her apartment.

Should have done this long ago, not that I really want hatemongering pieces of shite like Crump or Sharpton on "my side."
The most hilarious part of this will be white leftists getting uncomfortable with the idea of opposing injustice against one of their own.

well this wasn't a traffic stop. Hunter was already stopped in parking lot fixing his truck. No blue lights turned on, no commands given.

I almost posted about this when it happened. It definitely looks pretty shady.

The only thing George Floyd's name belongs on is his tombstone.

The unarmed teenage boy was murdered for no reason. He was carrying a container of antifreeze intending to block a tire.

So, isn't this a tacit admission that race is relatively irrelevant?
I mean if police officers of all colors can deploy excessive force against subjects of all colors, whether I agree with it or not, can it be "racist" as that term is widely used?

I've heard many speculations on what happened. ZERO have been confirmed. The antifreeze / oil / tire block all from the rumor mill.
One thing is definite. No child of that age has any business being outside of their home, or outside adult supervision, at that hour of the night. ZERO.
Any comment that his shooting was intentional is 100% hyperbole and false. I've seen plenty claim the "murder" angle. No one was murdered (intentionally determined to kill someone).
Definitely appears to be very tragic, but it's under investigation. These allegations are exactly how we ended up with the false claims of "hands up, don't shoot".

Yes - I want more of this - let's show that 99.9% of all police killings are totally justified.
And let's compare cases where the police went rogue with relation to all races.
Then look for 'racist' trends.
None of their showcase 'examples' have held much water up to now.

This is absolute bullshite. A 17-year-old isn’t allowed to be outside their house at 3 AM?

The friend has spoken extensively in public.
I think we’re all glad the police officer got home safe.

This is a smart move on their part and what I’ve always said they should be doing. We crucify cops when the victim is black and sweep it under the rug when the victim is white, regardless of the actual circumstances. There are bad shoots and we should be trying to minimise them, and that’s impossible when they’re throwing out bs racial claims and ignoring any incident that doesn’t have a black victim.
