Just today (for the first time), I heard on the local news about a white couple who had been shot dead after a no-knock-raid by Houston police in 2019. Never heard about this on the national news. Why not? Because it didn't fit the national-media narrative re only black criminals being shot by police?
The white couple in question were low-level drug dealers. In this case, did that warrant their being shot dead? Five Houston police officers also sustained injuries in the raid, indicating that the perps had shot at them. So, yes, I'd say that the criminals deserved being shot dead by police.
Now... Where was this coverage on the national news? Where was the drummed-up outrage at "police brutality"?
For the past few years, the media has falsely presented the crime issue as a racist issue: "Racist" whites in power going after poor, innocent blacks.
Absolutely not true. Blacks are about 13% of the population, but they commit over 50% of the crimes. Why is that?
Sure, the police are sometimes abusive. They shouldn't have shot the above-mentioned white couple, just as Chauvin shouldn't have knelt on George Floyd's neck.
In the middle-class white community, we recognize the efforts of the police as necessary and thank them for it. But somehow in the black community, the very same police efforts have been warped by both blacks and the liberal white media into some sort of racism that thereby excuses criminal behavior (which we're now witnessing in shops and on streets across America).
Whites condemn their own low-lifes. But blacks (and their shucking-and-jiving white-guilt leftist-media cohorts) seem to lionize their own low-lifes. As long as that's the case, the "racial issues" will never stop. No rational person can ignore the extremely high black crime rate, the extremely high out-of-wedlock black birth-rate, the extremely high level of blacks on public assistance. Per capita, it's way out of proportion to their 13% of the population.
As for the above 2019 Houston police shootings of this white couple----I think the case is on par with the 2020 death of the black George Floyd (who was a low-life like this white druggie couple; Floyd had a long history of crime and domestic abuse and drug abuse). The white couple should not have been shot dead; and Floyd should not have been choked to death. But why was the latter creep made a national martyr by the media, inspiring/allowing nation-wide rioting and burning and looting and proclamations by left-wing politicians about a "Summer of Love"?
And the same looting is still going on today, unchecked by left-wing prosecutors in left-wing cities.
