No one is fucking talking about it but another black man was killed by the same police department that killed George Floyd they killed him 9 minutes after entering his apartment. No knock warrants are fucking bullshit. He was wrapped in his blanket he was innocent they had the wrong address there is body can cottage you cannot fucking deny this bullshit.

This is being hushed up and covered up and I cannot believe it took me until TODAY, SIX DAYS AFTER IT HAPPENED to find out about it.

Everyone should be talking about this shit.

All the BLM protests and here we are again. We cannot let a single one of these slide because that's how nothing changes and that's how innocent people are being killed at the hands of assholes who are happy to pull the trigger without hesitation. I'm so fucking upset right now and so should you be.

Amir Locke shooting: What we know so far

Suspect arrested in homicide case that led to police fatally shooting Amir Locke is his cousin

Video shows Minneapolis officers hooting Black man during no-knock warrant. Attorneys say he wasn't the target

Students Protest Amir Locke Killing, Demand Lawmakers Ban No-Knock Warrants

Once again, the police have killed a Black man for legally possessing a gun

As a black woman, I’m personally at a loss for words. I hope his family and his community will be able to find some peace. And I hope that one day we can all finally live in a world where these things can stop happening.

I should also mention that in my original post I said 9 minutes when I meant to say 9 seconds. He was shot after 9 seconds of them entering the apartment. Heartbreaking.

Also some other information:

- the cops that did this were denied a no-knock warrant in their own precinct so they went to another precinct not very close by to get it. Intent was had.

The cops involved have a very dark and unsettling past.

I will reblog this version of the post with some more information since the post I made with information is getting zero traction.
