Advocates of Anarcho-Tyranny By Charles Taylor (Florida)
The extracts below from a satirical piece from The Washington Examiner, takes on the BLM narrative that the police have declared open season on Black men, especially those committing what White society defines as crimes. So, legalise crime! Now, once one thinks about this, this is not such a bad idea, like the purge, in the TV series called I think, The Purge, from memory. Perhaps suspend all criminal laws and see what happens? Will the oppressed people stop being oppressed? Or will former criminals decide to eat those of the Left without guns? I really would like to know. Maybe the idea behind the purge is not so crazy, if we get to the truth of things.
“The attorneys for the family of Andrew Brown might as well come out and say that Brown should never have been shot by police because crime ought to be legalized.
When you follow what they and social justice liberals preach about Brown's death to its logical conclusion, that's what they're saying.
During an interview Wednesday on NPR, Brown family attorney Wayne Kendall disputed the district attorney's assessment earlier in the week that the police shooting of Brown was justified because Brown had put police officers' lives in danger when he attempted to evade arrest in his vehicle.
"He said that the victim, Mr. Brown, was using the vehicle in an offensive manner," Kendall said. "And I did not see that. I saw him attempting to escape, and the fact that he was shot in the back of the head indicates that the shots were coming from his rear as he was attempting to leave the scene."
During a press conference on Tuesday, Andrew Womble, the district attorney, made public police body camera footage of the attempted arrest of Brown, who was wanted for the distribution of drugs, including cocaine and fentanyl-laced heroin. (The medical examiner also found a baggy of what appeared to be crystal meth inside of Brown's mouth, Womble said.)
The video showed several police officers in a pickup truck driving to Brown's home, where they found him inside his car. They surrounded the vehicle while telling him to exit, but Brown backed the car up then drove forward in an attempt to flee, apparently striking one of the officers with the right front of the car. As Brown peeled away, police fired multiple shots, which ultimately killed him.
Womble said that by ignoring orders and plowing the car into officers, Brown had put the safety of the cops and the public at risk and that the vehicle had, in effect, become a deadly weapon. He deemed the shooting justified.
Notorious race hustler Ben Crump, who is also representing the Brown family, has similarly said that the use of lethal force was unwarranted because "the car was moving away from the officers."
It does look like Brown was just trying to evade arrest, but in doing so, he floored it in his BMW, heading directly at two officers. Regardless of whether Brown intended to hit anyone, the safety of the cops and anyone else who might have been nearby was put in jeopardy by his actions.
If I stepped into Times Square and aimlessly fired [a] gun down Broadway, I may not have targeted at any one person or meant to harm others, but it would be reckless and dangerous nonetheless.
The idea that we should be fine with allowing suspects to run away from police because otherwise, they might end up getting shot is preposterous. But it's what we're hearing from the Left more and more.
After 20-year-old Daunte Wright was shot by police for doing the exact same thing as Brown, there were once again declarations that he should have simply been allowed to speed off in his car. Never mind the safety of the person who was in Wright's passenger seat or anyone else who could have been on the road that day.
Resisting arrest is in and of itself dangerous and threatening to the public and the police.
It's also a crime, but, hey, we're legalizing that, aren't we?”
