This is America indeed though where privileged white conservatives look for everything to rationalize violence against black people and try to talk down to them.

Time and again, we see how serial killers (who are white), mass murderers (who are white) and countless other categories of criminals are not abused by law enforcement, including those who are cop killers, but when the suspect/perpetrator is a minority, there appears to be an outpouring of excuses from people who think that the minority being abuse somehow deserved it through their actions - that the cop/authority figure is justified in the use of force (including deadly force) for not listening.

All the while, these same folks are talking about standing up against authority up to and including use of force and deadly force with firearms as their god-given 2d Amendment solution to government overreach.

A black girl who simply refuses to comply with putting away their phone can be manhandled, but the Crowderheads come out of the woodwork to blame the excessive force on the girl who simply had their phone out.
