Another police shooting

Shouldn't be funny, but I did find it funny

Black guy: "Why did you shoot me"
Policeman: "I don't know"

If a black man is armed does that make him a gangsta blue?

Of course not.

The cop was black, so if a black cop shoots a black guy, is that racist?

We should remember cops are human, saving us from skum everyday, but messing up at times too.
Just like the guys acting gangsta, some cops are wrong uns too.

It depends on his reason for shooting him, the idea that because someone's black they can't be racist towards blacks is false.

because she is screaming to film it and he is getting louder.

This is how you know he's playing it? That's pathetic tbh. There is no valid reason for that opinion it seems.

guessing you just wanna call someone racist though so i'll leave you too it.

Not my fault you got immediately defensive and repeated what the cops said like its gospel. Why would I call you racist? Do you feel like anything you've said could be deemed racist?

Nothing I've said has been racist. You changed it to me defending "white cops" when that was never the case

Where did I do that lol?
I said you trotted out the cops story as if its gospel.
Are you OK son?

So I didn't say you defended them. Thanks for confirming that.
Overall your reasoning is seriously delapidated. First you unexplainably know he's playing and now this.

Elaborate, please.

People can be racist against their own race, I'm not sure what needs elaboration.
