Rocky Ford, CO – Shades Of Ferguson

 

Last Sunday, James Ashby killed 27-year old Jack Jacquez in Jacquez’s home. No one knows why Ashby came to Jack’s house. The Colorado Bureau of Investigation and the Rocky Ford Police Department have remained silent. That might be due to James Ashby being a police officer.

The pattern here is that police go into Black and Brown communities and kill Black and Brown people.

To be clear

 

  • This girl is dead because the police thought it would be a good idea to burst into a FAMILY home with a flash-bang and guns blazing.
  • The police thought it was a good idea to burst into a BLACK FAMILY’s home with A&E film crew to document the criminality of a BLACK family member.
  • What happened is that the WHITE police officer has shown himself to the the OPPRESSOR that he is.
  • The whole damn SYSTEM has shown itself to be the Oppressive New Jim Crow system that it is.
  • Add to the list of the four little precious Black girls killed in Birmingham Alabama, another precious little Black girl – Aiyana Stanley-Jones killed by a racist society.

Cop buys mom car seat instead of ticket – CNN Video

 

A Michigan police officer buys a needy mom a booster seat instead of issuing her a ticket. WXMI has more.

Interesting.

 

This is not how people in the community of Ferguson are treated.

 

I’m calling out White privilege.

 

If this mom was not white is would go like this:

 

  1. Child Protective Services would take her child away.
  2. Mom would be ticketed for the infraction.
  3. Mom would not have money to pay ticket.
  4. Warrant for arrest of mom is issued.
  5. Mom is stopped for looking suspicious.
  6. Cop runs mom’s id and finds there is a warrant out for her un-paid fines.
  7. Mom is incarcerated until she can be bailed out.
  8. If she is ever released from jail she is billed for her food, housing and administrative costs.
Did you hear the words ‘tough on crime’ in this story? No.
Did you hear the words child endangerment? No.
I’m calling out double standards, hypocrisy and racism in the U.S. police force.
