Effects Of Thinking White People Are “All Like That”:

Studies found that white men were the ones who overwhelmingly had weapons while Black and Latino men didn’t
• White people blaming and convicting Black men for crimes they never committed and everyone believing them because of racism
• Stop and Frisk, ruled unconstitutional was practiced by New York police disproportionately and unfairly affecting 90% Black and Latino men because of racism

But yeah, white people’s feelings :*(

I actually changed my mind, I’m adding more

The chief of police in Albany, New York says that his department just wanted a “realistic” setting when it frightened residents in a poor, predominately African-American neighborhood with SWAT training exercises that included firing blank ammunition and exploding flash grenades.

On Thursday, Albany’s SWAT team shocked nearby residents when it stormed a public housing complex that was scheduled to be demolished, according to the Times Union. Photos circulated on Facebook over the weekend showed police in tactical gear, spent shell casings and fake blood.

In a statement on Monday, Police Chief Steven Krokoff called the training “insensitive.”

“In light of the ever-increasing threats to communities across the nation, I have directed our department to provide the most up-to-date training in a manner that is as realistic as possible,” the police chief said. “I certainly did not mean to offend the very people that we are training to protect.”

“In retrospect, it was insensitive to conduct this type of training in the vicinity of occupied residences. We will review how we conduct our neighborhood-based training in the future and include the community in evaluating its appropriateness.”

Albany NAACP President Bernie Bryan wondered why police had chosen the housing project so close to a poor neighborhood.

“The folks in this neighborhood might not have the financial means, but are entitled to the same respect,” Bryan observed. “Whoever made the decision to do this was asleep at the switch.”

One resident who asked not to be named recalled the ordeal to the Times Union.

“We wake up to the sound the next morning of literally small bombs,” she said. “All you could hear was ‘pop, pop, pop’ of an assault rifle, police screaming ‘clear!’ I really thought I was in the middle of a war zone — and I have a four-year-old.”

The vacant apartments are scheduled to be demolished as part of a $11.8 million project to replace them with more efficient units, which is being paid for by New York’s Low-Income Housing Trust Fund.

Documentary film maker Ira McKinley was organizing a demonstration for Monday at 6 p.m. to protest the training exercise.

“You can’t just take poor people and say ‘You’re going to do this and do that with them,’” McKinley told the Times Union. “We’re organizing to formulate our own citizen action group. We’re going to educate our communities.”

The Arbor Hill Neighborhood Association is also meeting at 6 p.m. on Monday to give residents a chance to speak out. Chief Krokoff and Albany Housing Authority Executive Director Steve Longo had been invited but it was not known if they would attend.

Yep Albany PD. They  might be the least corrupt public entity in that city and that’s pretty fucking sad. 

Pfft, Oh no they want to train so they can better protect you, oh no!
If anything the surprise is good and prepares them for times when it may actually happen.

“when it may actually happen”, like when the police storm into the wrong apartment, light a 7 year old girl on fire with a flashbang grenade and fatally shoot her in the neck?

Or break into yet another wrong apartment, call an 11-month-old a “motherfucker” along with SIX other small children, demand they show their hands and scream, “This is what happens when your grandma sells crack”?

Or practicing breaking down the door of a 68 year old veteran whose medicalert bracelet went off by mistake, start screaming racial slurs and stun him to death while he begs for his life?

Maybe practice shooting handcuffed men and claim it was suicide?

“oh, but that didn’t happen HERE” you might say (although Kenneth Chamberlain WAS shot in White Plains for fucks sakes) but HEY it’s not like

these high school students decided to dress up in blackface and pretend to be Chris Brown physically assaulting Rihanna in Waverly, NY

THE NEW YORK STATE COURT DECIDED THAT HUMAN RIGHTS LAWS DON’T APPLY TO HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS WHO ARE ON THE RECEIVING END OF CONSTANT OVERT RACIST HARASSMENT[TW LINK FOR SLURS]

ACCORDING TO AN ANALYSIS OF GOOGLE RESULTS, UPSTATE AND CENTRAL NEW YORK IS THE SECOND MOST RACIST REGION IN THE ENTIRE COUNTRY FOR FUCKS SAKES

NO SERIOUSLY IT FUCKING IS

FUCK YOUR SHITTY TOWN

FUCK YOUR SHITTY STATE

POC who live here in America:

I realize you’re hurt by the ignorant words of “white people” who don’t know what they’re talking about, and I’m sorry.

But I have a question for you. In this “land of the free”…aren’t you free? What are their words doing to…
