    If someone bashed in your door at night, what would you do? Would you wait with your hands up until they identify themselves as cops? I mean, that's funny, because when I argued with right wingers about castle laws and stand your ground laws, I made the point that by retreating you ensure the people coming in aren't the cops. I was told they wouldn't bet their lives on it. So why should black people bet their lives on it? If someone bashes in a black person's door, they DON"T have the right to defend themselves? Rather, they need to retreat or identify the person BEFORE they shoot? Just making sure I have this right...oh and before you cry race to avoid answering any of the hard questions, note that this was already about race before I posted so you can swallow that one right off the bat.

    Also, the dude blind fired through her patio door at the blinds that covered it. That behavior alone should mean he never gets another job as a police officer and has his rights to own a firearm stripped. I mean, how responsible is that?

    Randy Weaver resisted arrest. So is that what killed his wife and son in his Idaho cabin? You have to agree. David Koresh resisted arrest. Therefore, that's what killed all those in Waco, right? They got what they deserved, didn't they.

    Assault is different from the current first degree murder charge.

    Yes. The current charge is based on the fact that a felony assault caused Floyd's death.

    As to your "real question," I think it's already been conclusively reported that the autopsy showed he had drugs in his system. That's not the "real question." It's what degree (if any) that contributed to his death? I don't know. Do you?

    As for you just let'em go if they resist theory, I've been hearing that a lot since George Floyd's death. Apparently every woke person knows that if someone resists arrest, you should let them go so as to not take chances injuring the suspect. I don't believe that's a common police department policy. Was that the Minneapolis police policy and Chauvin just violated it? I've not heard that.

    And finally, what sort of "race based narrative" do you think I have? Please be specific.

    I’m sure the jury at his murder trial will figure it out, right?

    It’s probably not policy. It should be. You’re the one advancing theories, like every over compensating person I’ve talked to, that is sometimes passes a fake 20 we have to catch him at any cost. I’d rather be woke than trying to make myself feel bigger in the shorts.

    That black people are killed by police at a higher rate than white people and that it’s ok it happens.

    Well since you want to divide deaths due to law enforcement by race then lets look at the actual data. Read this then we'll chat again:

    https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6080222/

    Granted it is long and dry so if you don't want to go through the entire thing I'll TLDR it for you. White deaths by law enforcement outnumber Black deaths outright under any circumstance but <warning narrative obliteration incoming> White deaths by law enforcement ALSO outnumber Black deaths under instances of accidental or unjustified shootings, both in count and in proportionality. You've fallen victim to Marxist lies, friend, fabricated to sway an election and nothing more.

    When you look a little deeper, depending on who you are it's about: selling news articles, an excuse to pillage, and a subject to spin for your political bent. Occams razor gives you the answers for more often than it doesn't.

    You might want to read that again.... it covers far more than what you mentioned.

    I mentioned this case to a couple of black men at work. They said, "They find him guilty I hope he never sees the outside for the rest of his life. <Mod Edit>

    Good... you should read this.... it will be uncomfortable for you, but this opinion is essentially mine as well

    SNIP
    But just days after Hinnant’s killing, many people, mostly the conservatives in my timeline, wanted to know where the media attention was. It was a bit confusing. If not for media coverage, how would they have known about what happened to a little boy in a small eastern North Carolina city?

    I can assure you I don't subscribe to delawareonline.com... All ya gotta do is scroll down, but it's a big ask, I know...

    But I already did hit one part of your (conservatives in general) argument about media coverage...
