police kills man with down syndrome...no indictment

Man with down syndrome at movie theater wanted to watch a movie twice but had no extra money. Police tried to remove him and ended up killing him. No indictment

 

Damned idiots. They're not even intelligent enough to recognize the obvious physical characteristics of someone who has Down's.

 

Crazy right. I mean honestly

 

It is sickening. The system has proven itself incapable of self-policing.

 

The protest surely need to highlight this too

 

I just FB'ed my friends involved in Miami and Chi. We definitely need to post this widely.

 

Yeah no doubt....put it on melissa harris perrys fbto

 

Good thinking.

 

Agreed. This is totally ridiculous.

 

He was still black right? A monster incapable of communication who needed to be put down. We gotta stop being shocked the last time it was this clear how they thought of us we had Jim Crow. Talk about history repeating itself.

 

Nope, this was a white child.

 

Well hot damn I stand corrected. I am really surprised they let that rock but then again not really. He wasn't a pretty white child whose face they could put on tv round the clock so it was ok. Damn shame

 

In that mindset, genetic defects = less than human. No one has any rights they must respect unless you're in that lucky 1%. Then you give them the orders.

 

I don' think it's always a race issue with cops. It think it's also a class issue. Most of us in America don't have the power or connections to fight this kind of shit solo. However, if you come from money and power, best believe shit wouldn't go down like this, or at the least heads would roll in the police department.

 

Stop race hustlin

Pretty much

The rich and well connected aren't the ones being jackbooted by the cops

How do you not recognize Down syndrome tho or any other special needs, that require a different approach

That's sad and shows how untrained or thuggish these types of cops are

 

Rep added. This is the heart of the matter.
