Nations Capital Undersized by Domestic Terrorist

Dennis S Murray Sr.,
.Six years before Jacob Blake was shot and critically injured by police in Kenosha, Wisconsin, the city made national headlines for a case that became the impetus for groundbreaking reforms concerning the use of deadly force. “Could it help provide a new faith in the justice system?” The New York Times asked at the time. Those reforms, however, were narrowly focused on making changes to how law enforcement investigates its own, the kind of reform strategy that once may have seemed like enough.
On August 23, 2020, Jacob S. Blake, a 29-year-old black man was shot by police eight times in his back as he walked back to the car where his children reportedly sat waiting for him, it wasn’t a failure of reform but evidence of what any reform really does look like. But the law enforcement officer felt that they had to use lethal force because they felt their life was threatened. However, Jacob Clark showed no threat but ultimately was shot in the back by a police officer while other law enforcement officers watched anyway. Now he is crippled for life. But again the police officer felt that their life was threaten, but anybody looking at the tape saw the video shows know such threat to the police officers life. Therefore, when police say that their life is threaten this gives law enforcement the license to kill any black man or person of color as one chose.
January 6, 2021 in Washington, DC after Trump rally
protesting the November Presidential 2020 Election, Trump eagerly informed the
protestors to march and they did proceeding towards the Capitol Building up
Pennsylvania Avenue. Trump protesters stormed the Capital building premier
steps armed as their worked there way inside the building. DC is now on high
alert despite having more law enforcement officer’s on hand than any other city
or state but no one got shot once they enter the building. These protestors
should have been treated like terrorist.
But, the law enforcement officers didn’t firer
a shot or begin rounding up these unlawful protestors now domestic terrorist.
They shouldn’t have gotten to the steps, let alone inside the Capital building with armed Secret Service professional at the ready. Simply put the protestors were White. We know if these were the Black Lives Matters protesting many of the law enforcement officers would have shot those Black Lives Matter protestors because the nation’s standard by law enforcement officer who deem their life is being threaten can use lethal force to shot and kill you. We have seen lethal force with law enforcement officers nationwide but nothing happen here. I lived in DC most of my working life and this has never happened in DC and I seem more up close protestors than many.
All of the law enforcement professionals in DC should be ashamed of themself. This continues to show how deep discrimination and racism when it comes our law enforcement officers and their justification to kill unarmed blacks in the country. However, we have witness to often that justice only favors White Americans and not Black Americans. Killing unarmed Black Americans seam to be ok in America. Now if any law enforcement officer feared for their life than this should have been a time to defend your self in Washington, DC during Trump domestic terrorism. Why didn’t any law enforcement shoot any of the white protestors in fear of their life? Simply put. If they were black the law enforcement officers would have not hesitated to shot those protestors entering the Capital building this way and armed? How does the entire law enforcement professionals in the DC metro areas investigate there own of not protecting Congress Capital buildings and the people that live nearby? End of story
New York Times: The top prosecutor in Kenosha, Wis., declined to bring charges against the police officer who shot and gravely wounded Jacob Blake outside an apartment building in August, an episode that sparked protests and rioting and made the city an instant flash point in a summer of unrest that began with the killing of George Floyd.
Now after Trump domestics terrorists protestors leave the streets of DC is this what are we left with in America!
