  1. No one showed up to the funerals of all the blacks killed by other blacks in the streets? Killed by cops bad, killed by thugs that's fine.

  2. God gone make u bacon pay

  3. When are people gonna realize that the very act of running away from the cops is illegal in my tself? If you get detained, interface with name and identification then shut up. If you are arrested, then fight it out in court and not fight it out with the cops. A cop is well trained and experienced in hand to hand combat plus he has weaponry, communications and a disparity of legal opinion in his favor. But the cop's only duty is to interface with you to find out what you are doing. If you only give your ID and clam up, that's the only obligation you have with the government. You can always Sue for false arrest later. But don't run. And if you resist arrest initially the cop will treat you as a hostile arrestee throughout the process of arrest.

  4. He absolutely did deserve what happened to him.

  5. Hundreds of parents lose their young children everyday because of Democrats open border and Fentanyl coming in Freely

  6. EVERYONE GO TO THE 0:41 TIMESTAMP, LOOK UNDER THE WORD "HELD". THIS IS WHAT THEY DON'T WANT YOU TO KNOW.

  7. If you think Kalama and Al Sharpen are the answer, no mater how many yes’es you say in church you are part of the problem!

  8. n my Opinion; The Mayor of NYC and his police dept; Standing outside the Apollo theater, with a camera rolling as people exit, is a new and bold tactic of facial recognition, without peoples consent, and a violation of privacy! Hello? Wake up!

  9. This is how you celebrate 🍾 👏 bravo 👏

  10. I don't condone what these ex officers did. But they're going through what they're supposed to. Due process. The hypocrisy of these activists knows no bounds. What is the complaint exactly and their solution? Why isn't their complaints directed towards more profound and frequent problems? Such as black on black gang violence? Why not complain that parents aren't raising their kids right? Bad parenting equates to criminals who don't comply with police and police with short fuses…..

  11. I don't want a bunch of strangers at my funeral.

  12. Only crime committed is bad crisis acting

  13. He didn’t listen to police. Why would you celebrate that.

  14. time to loot another Walmart and wonder why inflation just keeps rising

  15. All these people celebrating black on black crime.

  16. I'm sure the police just killed him for no reason . 😒🙄🤔

  17. Liberal and black America put another criminal on a pedestal. It makes me sick.

  18. We need more diversity and hire felons as cops.

  19. And Sharpton blamed white people for his death 😉

  20. I WANT TO EAT YOUR LOVING LOINS VOTE WHY VOTE VI'OER BR MAM BA BOA TOO♪|🧱 DID DEY?

  21. NEW HOPE! VIOL OOH YET OOH "TURNYOUIIYERYI DRONE DOWNS DOZE..

  22. But people forget he was acting irrationally in the video

  23. was is there to celebrate? He was the 3 BBB's… Broke, Black & a Burden✌

  24. The real change lays dormant because we can not invest in "WE" anymore. This is all about the "I". Inside us is wealth an poverty. The lower you fit in on the scale the less valuable you become to Justice. Just look at all the victims low income tragedies we do not hear about white people but they are also casualties of this war..

  25. Another dead criminal. 💀

  26. Maybe don't try to run over law enforcement and then call for your mama for

  27. All the individuals who have been blinded by the democratic bs
