So did the cops shoot Taylor after Walker opened fire or before?

I really hate that expression “no justice, no peace.” I don’t know why but I just do.

No “social distancing”.

No masks.

Oh, the huge manatee!

Killed in a drug raid.

Hardly seems like a racial issue.

According to news reports the suspect a known drug dealer started shooting at the police immediately upon them breaking down the door. Officers returned fire and Breanna Taylor was killed. It was her apartment and her boyfriend the known drug dealer was living there with her.

“no justice, no peace.” means nothing. They say it as a lazy chant. They don’t know the true definition of either word applying to a civil society.

[[I don’t know why but I just do.]]

Because it is thugs imposing their vigil ante will on everyone- What they are essentially swaying is “If you don’t give us the verdict we demand, despite any evidence to the contrary, we will burn this city down and keep doing it, and ruin businesses, and loot businesses to our heart’s content”

People have already convicted the officers before a trial, and any other verdict won’t be accepted by them- doesn’t matter if overwhelming evidence proves it wasn’t racist at all-

I don’t know anything about this particular case- but during many riots- this is what the black folks say ‘ “No justice no peace” and what they mean is exactly what i described above- they have prejudged the case based on emotions, without any real facts, other than short clips which don’t often tell the whole story, and if anyone dares disagree with them- they will continue rioting, looting, and destroying innocent people’s lives-

I don’t blame you for not liking the statement- they don’t mean true justice, they mean contrived justice- despite eivendce against guilt in some cases-

Once is happenstance
Twice, coincidence

Seems like Obama's old buddies Antifa, along with the DeepState and some racebaiting lawyers, are revving up to recreate the racial divisions of Obama's last year in office.

You remember the exploitation of every "police incident" by Big Media, to create the impression that America was in a racial meltdown?

These a-holes are at it again, trying to make it look like the country is falling apart under Pres. Trump. Implied message: "Want to end all this chaos? Then you gotta vote out Trump & the Republicans this fall."

That is not true.

The boyfriend is a licenced concealed carrier (therefore no criminal record) exercising his 2a rights, and already has had all charges dropped on him from the shooting.

The boyfriend shot first at what he thought were intruders because police barged in on a no knock warrant without clearly identifying themselves late at night, looking for someone who was not there (faulty warrant information). Breonna Taylor was killed by police bullets in the return of fire.

How about we get justice on what barry and his bad bunch did to Trump, Flynn and the others they went after.

I suspect the Chinese communists are happy to see all this violence. It gets them temporarily off the hook.

Oh look. Another Democrat state. More race protests. It’s almost like this is the summer of an election year or something.

Oh yeah...there is evidence that the two men knew each other before. They were bouncers at the same club. Maybe they had an argument back then that was never resolved.

So this may not be the quick closure everyone seems to want. It will take investigation.

Violent death of innocent bystanders is not something to celebrate.

The government would destroy beyond repair, the life of any civilian who killed a non-participant in such a fashion.
But they made up out of whole cloth the fiction of “qualified immunity” so that they would never have to answer for the death of innocents.

Why does the death of civilians fill you with such manifest joy?

Then that becomes open and shut deprivation of civil rights under color of law. A Federal Felony.

The issue is that the government loves to jerk off in public about "The Process is the Punishment"

(See Lt. General Flynn,

railroaded by the FBI

and now a Federal Judge openly breaking existing and established Federal Circuit Court Precedent

-- thereby arguably destroying his own judicial immunity

(and yes, I know the difference between qualified immunity and judicial immunity)--

in order to try to keep prosecuting him

even after the government admitted hiding Brady material,

falsifying prosecution documents,

pressuring him to plead by illegally threatening to prosecute his son,

and the dropping the charges.)

But when a government actor KILLS someone, they are not only shielded from sentencing, but even from the process.
