The video starts by suggesting the “media pushes this race-baiting one-sided narrative” and then goes on to imply that this is only in the news to distract from Hillary Clinton and Director Comey. Oh yeah, such an unbiased analysis you have found for us.
“While Luisiana was an open-carry state, Sterling was on probation and thus it was illegal for him to be carrying a firearm. By liberal logic, he was a personal gun-free zone and no gun could have been on him.” Huh? No. By logical logic, if the officers didn’t know he was on probation (I haven’t heard any indication they knew who he was in advance), all they know it’s an open-carry state so they have to assume he has the right to have a gun.
It then goes through a bunch of mostly irrelevant quotes (except one quote from an eye witness that was lumped in with the others) followed by a somewhat more relevant look at Sterling’s criminal record.
If you look at the videos available (not shown in your link), the context is important and we can’t see what the context was, because we can see and hear nothing from before the cop throws the guy on the ground. We can see that the bystanders are shocked by the outcome. I’m willing to accept, given Sterling’s criminal record and his past encounters with police, that Sterling was likely to have acted foolishly and earned harsh treatment. There are obviously far better cases to be outraged about than this one. About 100 unarmed black men are killed by police every year, so fussing about this armed man with a long rap sheet is, I’m sorry to say, not very productive to the BLM cause — even though the cops absolutely should have been able to arrest him without killing him.
Your video goes on to say, about the cop that killed Castille, “I’m sure he was a white latino just like George Zimmerman so you can get a wide net of anti-white hatred.” Again, his right-wing strawman completely misses the point. We don’t hate white people. The issue here is police brutality and police training, especially toward blacks…
Millions of people seem convinced that the answer to left-wing bias is right-wing bias. But even more have been convinced that right-wing bias is not bias at all. That any right-wing perspective is “fair and balanced”. I call bullshit.
