New Report: Colorado Police Had No Reason To Detain Elijah McClain | The ReidOut | MSNBC
Wtf
When will people understand the police officers are out harvesting victims to meet the need to generate revenue in the legal system.
This is infuriating to think that this poor young man was treated so badly like this … the poor guy did nothing wrong and gave no reason to be handled like this.. what a dreadful, horrible, situation. These police need to be fired and punished. What a disgrace.
Elijah’s story is just heartbreaking to another level. And it makes it even more infuriating. Throw them all in jail YESTERDAY.
*NEVER MAKE A RACIST FEEL COMFORTABLE*
No reason these young Kings should be gone!
I heard this before and it makes me very upset. You can listen to the young man and know right off he wasn’t doing anything illegal. He’s respecting them while hurting him.. 🤬
We have to stop crying n complaining n fight bck (Flatout)
EVERYTIME we defend ourselves they consider it an attack on them
So upsetting.
Defund the Police!!
When will we learn ? How many times
do you want to get bit by the same Snake? BLACK LIVES MATTER!!!!
This is why we need to stop marching stop protesting stop believing in justice for ALL. SMH
It is for things like this I don’t care when a Cop dies or gets shot!!!
BLACK LIVES MATTER
Only when they shoot police and each other not the innocent ones killed
@Knight 1 every time I type BLM I go fishing for the Racists that can’t stand the fact that
BLACK LIVES MATTER!!!
@Red or Dead ok that supremacy is showing
– *If you could reason with Trump supporters They wouldn’t be Trump supporters* –
Negligent Homicide
This is so sad!
Then the paramedics/EMT gave him an insane amount of drugs
“I am an Introvert, respect my boundaries” that broke my heart.
Introverts just wanna be left alone..
Being Black in this world is tough..
Being an Introvert is Stressful sometimes..Imagine being Both..
I hope I’m making sense..
RIP ELIJAH✨
This is why mental health needs to be taken into account now. Have a health care professional ride along. Call for one— do something! This poor kid was probably acting out because he thinks he was dying. None of this was his fault. We have to do better in this country! It’s so upsetting.
And we’ve got white. 5upremacists and militias running like insurgents pretending their the victims of oppression.
That poor kid. This is so wrong
