The fact that Breonna Taylor's murderers are still free, the judge who signed the warrant is still sitting, and the sheriff who authorized the raid is still has a job as the only sign you need to know this whole system is a circus. A mockery of justice. Thread, I guess.
If you, as a prviate citizen, discharged a firearm (even in self defense, as the cops in the raid claimed) and struck an innocent bystander, you'd be arrested on the scene, have a bail set above 250k, and be convicted in a hurry - even if you didn't kill the innocent individual.
Meanwhile, you have cops break into the wrong house, rightfully get shot at for being home invaders, then they fucking magdump the joint because they have less firearms training than kids who play Call of Duty - and the guy who was defending the house was the one arrested??
Not to mention the fact they hit him ZERO times, and Breonna EIGHT time. You have to be grossly incompetent with a firearm to pull something like that off - eight hits on your non-intended target? I can do better using my fucking feet to hold the gun.
If this system was even barely righteous, the cops would be arrested. They'd be prosecuted just like any home invader who gets into a shootout with the innocent homeowners they've wronged. This isn't "just doing their job" - God have Mercy on you if you think otherwise.
When cops are afforded special privilege, assumption of innocence even when they murder a sleeping woman, and an easy out because they were "doing their job" (killing sleeping people during a B&E you're perpetrating is a job???), you've arrived at a police state.
When cops are elevated to a class above being civilians - when they aren't accountable for their actions because of horrid excuses, when they have less training than they often demand "regular" civilians have before they can own a gun - we have a big fucking problem.
It sure would be cute if voting would fix this - but you're disconnected with reality if you think Biden wasn't part of the creation of this failing system of justice, and it's pretty evident Trump doesn't give a fuck.
At this point, any LEO who isn't clear and concise in calling for Breonna's murderers to be prosecuted like the civilians they are is complicit. Fuck your brotherhood - if you don't stand against these blatant criminals you're not much of a cop.
Anyway, I've been brewing over this one for a bit. With all the outrage going on right now, it's utterly ridiculous that nothing is being done about Breonna - by all accounts I've seen she was an outstanding person, and absolutely deserves better.
I have no faith that this system will find the just and righteous solution. I have no faith in this system at all. That Trump and Biden are offered up as the most qualified leaders from a country that's meant to be the most free and equal on Earth is all the evidence needed.
