Whilst there has been some media coverage in the UK over the brutal murder of Tyre Nichols by 5 black police officers in America there has been nowhere near the same amount as previous cases where white police officers have done the killing. No mass demonstrations as well. No BLM marches for Tyre Nichols. He was brutally murdered by these officers but many don't care because the officers were black so it doesn't fit their narrative |

There have been condemnations of his killing,murder by Black Lives Matter. There may well be marches organized we don't know yet. |

Did the black police officers kill him because he was black? Do white officers kill black folk because they are black? ..sometimes they do yes. |

This was all over the news, they covered a large peaceful demonstration led by Tyre's mother at which she repeated her appeals for other demonstrators to do so peacefully.

But there has been much less protests about it. Yes it's good that what the mother requested was listened to BUT if it had been white police officers that message would have been ignored, there would have been hundreds of thousands protesting in many cities and there would have been lots of violence

@ ogdenz - 30.01.23 - 02:05pm Did the black police officers kill him because he was black? Do white officers kill black folk because they are black? ..sometimes they do yes. Maybe they shouldn't brutally kill him for no reason |

@obi_jon | 30 January 23 | |
So, you're disappointed that there wasn't lots of violence?

I see they are still trying to blame white supremacy
