The electrocution and execution of Black people, and all people is something we all need to act upon and do something about today. <BR/><BR/>I also urge all bloggers to adopt the widget in the right panel to show that we are no longer going to accept the pre-trial and extra-judicial electrocution and execution of Black people. But I also must note that there are many whites, native Americans an latinos being tasered as well. <BR/><BR/>I'm glad to have joined up with you on this very important issue.AAPPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13527473930364231547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6517362801032392665.post-70298424756031617852008-07-26T16:19:00.000-07:002008-07-26T16:19:00.000-07:00AAPP, I'm proud to be a part of this blog with you...AAPP, I'm proud to be a part of this blog with you. The necessity for ending the electrocution and execution of Black people is something we all need to act upon and do something about today. I urge bloggers to adopt the widget in the right panel to show that we are no longer going to accept the pre-trial and extra-judicial electrocution and execution of Black people.<BR/><BR/>Ask yourself this: If the use of tasers required a court order, is there any way in the world that the police could have shown this video to a court and obtained an order to use a taser, as opposed to calling in a psychiatrist or something? <BR/><BR/>If it was a bear, would the police have tasered him? Could they have called the fire department for a net before tasering this man?<BR/><BR/>If I call the police to get my cat out of a tree, will they taser my cat? Probably not, right, because the taser might kill him, or he might fall and hurt himself? If only they had given this Black man the same consideration. <BR/><BR/>If I were ever in this man's circumstances, I hope the police would treat me they way they treat an escaped bear or a cat in a tree, instead of treating me the way the police treat Black people. Just give me the consideration you would give a wild animal, please! Call a game warden who is concerned with animal safety instead of a police officer who is concerned only with "taking me down".Francis Hollandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11862777385923656061noreply@blogger.com
