This is President-Elect Biden's fault.

Just another example of the racist Biden administration's lack of concern for the plight of Black Americans!

Well, he WAS en-route to commit a "crime", celebrating Thanksgiving with his family./s

But yes, you are right about this:

We all know the answer. Sadly, the American public is far too stupid to understand. We are on a sinking ship, and our moron shipmates are drilling holes in the ship.

If they put Biden in, the phenomenon known as racism will cease to exist and police can go back to killing blacks at random.

A bit of sarcasm, as ALL of the BS has been and will be media driven.

I think BLM and Antifa are too busy trying to divide up the spoils of the fraudulent election. Funniest thing, my Leftist former friends had been blaming all the rioting, looting and burning down of the victims on Trump supporters. Not kidding. I’m sure the rioting, etc., will start up again after the country is in firm Leftist hands.

Pray that the SCOTUS cares about the integrity (what integrity??) of our election and does something to right this treasonous takeover of our country.

I wonder how he responded to being pulled over? The Chris Rock video shows how an innocent man can get beat up or even killed if he responds “poorly” to being pulled over.

The incident occurred November 19th, that several days ago, yet this Black Star report is dated today. For some reason the MSM did not pick it up, regardless of how it’s spun.

I suspect there are a few details missing. A while back a journalist considered a person unarmed if they attacked the cop with a knife. In other words, the cop had a gun, the perp had a knife, thus unfair, thus unarmed. I suspect some sort of an attack that caused the incident being left out.

But I agree, there should have been a national outrage brought on by the media fanning the flames of the BLM/Antifa fires.

1. Unarmed does NOT mean in dangerous.

2. NEVER fight the cops on the street.

3. Lots of lootable stores currently closed in NM per gov s orders.

Scant information but consider:

...attempted to pull Applewhite over for what was described as a traffic stop.

...two state troopers tried to arrest Applewhite.

...an altercation occurred with the first officer...

So it appears this was a situation and outcome of his own making. Of course, that's never stopped the gibs-me-dat segment of the population from protesting and lamenting the loss of another aspiring rapper who was turning his life around.

I suspect the lack of outrage, lack of riots, lack of looting & burning is not due to any sudden onset of common sense. Instead I believe you are right - the instigated, bought-and-paid-for outrage has served it's purpose. Back to business as usual, ignoring minority deaths which occur all too regularly in places like Chicago and other democrat run h**l holes.

Another Bull—it headline. The ONLY reason he was unarmed is because he UNSUCCESSFULLY tried to take the LEO’S service weapon away from him.

From the police statement:
According to the statement, Applewhite was driving his gray Chrysler 200 on the Manzano Expressway, a barren two-lane road east of Interstate 25, when the first officer tried to pull him over.

He fled and the state police pursued him, using tire-deflation devices to try to stop him.

About seven minutes later, a dispatcher described his whereabouts and the two officers involved in the shooting incident found him standing outside the car. When they tried to take him into custody, Applewhite resisted arrest and grabbed one officer’s gun, the report said. The second officer shot and killed him.

I don’t see the skin color of the officers mentioned, so maybe he or she is a POC

Why did “an altercation” occur?

This is not news reporting. It’s pure bias. Starts with the headline. Then it tells us he was innocently going to see his mother for Thanksgiving. It attempts to hide the real reason with the innocuous words “when an altercation occured”.

You have to follow a link to find out what really happened. “Applewhite resisted arrest and grabbed one officer’s gun”.

After revealing the truth, the article covers it up right away with “Excessive use of force is a serious problem” and “There have been 114 fatal police shootings”.

The media want violence in the streets. They want the police reduced to impotent wimps.

Why no riots?

Simple. Biden and his team plan on BEING the police. The police will and always have followed orders.

Police are not your friend in Democrat controlled districts and States (St, Louis, Portland, Philadelphia, Maryland etc.) Police will not be your friend if Biden takes over and essentially federalizes local police. Only a few rural sheriffs will put fidelity of the constitution over orders they may get from despotic state and federal government.

To the police that plan on following orders rather than the constitution, remember the quote from the Gulag Archipelago. And remember that it will never be the same for you, your families and children once you cross that line and opt to follow unethical, immoral and unconstitutional orders from tyrants.
