An inmate's final struggle caught on video; some raising questions about death at West Baton Rouge jail | News | The Advocate — Baton Rouge, Louisiana
And some of you wonder why black men run from cops. When you go from being arrested for sagging pants to dead with the cops falsifying their role in your death, and these reports just keep on coming out.
Whatever got his man in jail, his death was execution by cops. And those cops let him die like a dog then lied on the paperwork. If you think you handled the situation correctly, then you don't make up a different story for the paperwork.
And save your "you sound like you hate cops" reply. I hate brutal evil cops and I want them to answer for their crimes. But more importantly, I want all the white readers of this forum to maybe, just a tiny bit maybe, begin to understand the lack of trust black people have in cops and whether they will be treated fairly. I want you to understand why they might run, might be mouthy or surly, might see cops both as protectors and the enemy. It's like having an abusive parent. Most of the time he is good and takes care of you but sometimes he goes off and you never know when that is going to happen.
