Interesting, @Mik. Do you agree with Malcolm X's assessment as articulated in the video? Which "team" are you on in his "football" metaphor?

Layers and layers of fact checkers at CNN:
According to Cuomo, it was “unclear” if one of the cops was shot by Taylor’s boyfriend or his own officers.
“A cop was hit at some point. Horrible. Officer Mattingly. But by whom? By Walker or friendly fire? Ballistics make it unclear,” Cuomo stated.
During a press conference earlier in the day, however, Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron explicitly stated that “there’s no evidence to support that Sergeant Mattingly was hit by friendly fire from other officers.”
“In addition to all the testimony, the ballistics report shows that the round that struck Sergeant Mattingly was fired from a nine-millimeter handgun. The LMPD officers fired 40 caliber handguns,” Cameron explained.

Yeah but Asian people are politically invisible.

This is a good case in point about how pop culture ideas matter. Malcolm X articulated what it took me 25+ years to figure out. Because what he said is not only not taught, it is ashamedly concealed with shrugs and smiles and promises of social status.

:Interesting development.
It’s quite a charge and should be investigated. It’s another matter to just release everything to the public, which falls one of two sides and will immediately see what their brain has been trained and manipulated to see. Maybe we have come to this.

I don’t know if it’s true or not, but a twitter commenter said the same thing happened after Darren Wilson’s grand jury in Ferguson, but the records weren’t released and it didn’t go anywhere.

I was watching a clip from The View and one of the women hosts, apparently with some background as a prosecutor, lamented that since a DA can get a grand jury to indict a ham sandwich, it was obvious that the Louisville DA wasn't even trying.
As if to indict the officers no matter the facts would have been a good and necessary thing.

:The boyfriend admits he fired (maybe even first) but says it was a warning shot into the floor.
Well, since the officers were carrying .40 cals and the cop who was shot had a 9mms bullet hole, the boyfriend's statement might be a little short of the Truth.
And another thing...Since she was shot six times, collapsing in the hallway, wonder if boyfriend was using her as a shield?
