The police officers appear to react differently in dealing with these people. Individuals, you can see, are alleged to be out-of-control white partiers! Viewers say police would have pulled guns and gone in shooting if the subjects were brown-black, LGBTQI, or anyone who appeared different from those belonging to their tribe, the straight white supremacist brood.

I’m befuddled at the reactions from people about the Hong Kong Situation that’s going on. Apperantly it’s suddenly okay to not react to police attacking students with tear gas and rubber bullets for ‘inappropriate behavior.’ Is this a joke? This attack happened on m u l t i p l e universities. Not even one. I have a friend studying in City University of Hong Kong and I haven’t been able to reach her for days. There are several injured people and it’s f i n e? Apperantly even the dean of the university pleaded to the police to stop attacking, they agreed on retreat. When they did not, the dean walked up to them to talk, what did he face?? Attack by the police force. There is a picture of the dean being carried away by the students. A student d i e d cause of this on 8th of November.
But we forget easily. Now if you look up the hashtag Hong Kong the only thing you can find are meaningless selfies foreigners. I told my mom about the situation and she told me ‘my university was attacked when I was young, it happens a lot in Turkey, who cares if it also happened in Hong Kong when nobody cares about us?’ I get that Hong Kong is a more commercial topic but it doesn’t change the weight of the situation. If we do not care about this event then how can we hope that people will care about us when it happens to us?
They dissentisized us enough from attacks like this. It’s not a c c e p t a b l e to have police attacking the citizens. The police that they are supposed to trust. Then you ask why the public starts riots against you. This is the very reason why.
I just hate the fact that this situation is already forgotten and there is nothing you can do unless you start caring.
Police officer critically injured in incident at Michigan airport
A police officer is in critical condition after an incident Wednesday morning at Bishop International Airport in Flint, Michigan, the Associated Press reported.
CNN reported on Wednesday that an airport police officer was stabbed in the neck, according to Lieutenant David Kaiser, a spokesman for the Michigan State Police. The airport was evacuated and the suspect is reportedly in custody.
An official told CNN that the suspect is believed to have targeted law enforcement. Read more (6/21/17 12:20 PM)
State Police Were Sent To Help - Beatings Followed!
Complaints, criminal charges and lawsuits have piled up against state troopers in cities that participate in the Secure Cities Partnership,
SAGINAW, MI – John Haynes wasn’t having it.
The 69-year-old Saginaw handyman, who is Black, let Michigan State Police troopers know precisely how he felt when they pulled him over in his van a few years ago, according to a video of the encounter obtained by MLive.
“I have been getting stopped all damn week,” Haynes says irately after he’s placed in a patrol vehicle. “For what? You looked through my van; you didn’t find any drugs. You (are) just interrupting a good person’s life, and I’m tired of getting stopped … Is that what we’ve got to go through to live in America?”
Haynes ultimately filed a complaint and a lawsuit. His complaint is one of more than 80 filed in the last two years against the Michigan State Police in so-called “Secure Cities” like Saginaw and Flint – cities with existing police forces but not enough resources. Troopers, like those Haynes encountered, were brought in to help as part of a multi-million-dollar statewide program.
Complaints, criminal charges and lawsuits have piled up against state troopers in cities that participate in the Secure Cities Partnership, many of them racial in nature. Experts and law enforcement officials interviewed for this story said it’s the result of sending officers from an outside agency – mostly white state troopers – into predominantly Black cities, stoking existing, well-documented conflicts between Black people and white police officers.
Since the program launched in 2012, three residents have been killed in high-speed crashes and a teen died after being Tased while riding his ATV. At least six lawsuits have been filed, costing Michigan more than $27 million in payouts. And most recently in Saginaw, three white state troopers were criminally charged in two separate beatings of Black men caught on camera.

Residents and activists have told MLive they want Michigan State Police out of their towns.
“Personally, I think it should it end,” Jeffrey Bulls, president of the Saginaw nonprofit Community Alliance for the People, said about the Secure Cities program. “If I truly believed more police equaled more safety, I would increase Saginaw police, the ones we know.”
But elected and law enforcement officials say local departments are underfunded and their cities wouldn’t be able to function without their help.
“State police is doing a great job,” Saginaw police Chief Robert M. Ruth said. “We work together as a team. The resources they provide to us are tremendous to keep citizens safe.”
‘He was calling me ‘boy’ the whole time’
In 2022, two disturbing videos of white police officers beating Black men in Saginaw emerged. Three Michigan State Police troopers were charged in the two separate beatings – criminal cases that are still winding through the court system. Resignations and reassignments of superior officers followed.

A Black Man Was Holding A Sandwich and Keys When An Ohio Deputy Shot Him Repeatedly, Killing Him!
The gun the deputy said Casey Goodson Jr. was waving when he was shot in the back multiple times was found in the man's kitchen with the safety on.

COLUMBUS, Ohio — Prosecutors say a gun that a former Ohio sheriff’s deputy said a man was waving at him when he fatally shot him in the back in 2020 was found in the man’s kitchen with the safety on.
In his opening statement Wednesday in the murder case against Jason Meade, special prosecutor Gary Shroyer shared publicly for the first time where 23-year-old Casey Goodson Jr.’s handgun was discovered. Goodson, who fell when he was shot six times with five shots hitting in the back, also had a gun holster with no strap around his waist.
Meade, who is white, has pleaded not guilty to murder and reckless homicide in the death of Goodson, who was Black. The sheriff’s deputy shot Goodson as he entered his grandmother’s house, police have said.
Former Ohio deputy charged in murder of Casey Goodson Jr.

The jury hearing the case was seated Tuesday, and testimony was expected to start Thursday. Jurors made a brief visit Wednesday afternoon to the scene of shooting.
Shroyer emphasized numerous times on Wednesday that Goodson was holding a bag of sandwiches in one hand and his keys in the other at the time he was shot. He also had his Airpods in his ears, Shroyer said. Neither he nor Goodson’s family have ever disputed that Goodson could have been carrying a gun, but note that he also had a license to carry a firearm.
Based on Meade’s aiming at “vital organs” and shooting of an assault style rifle, Shroyer said Meade’s actions meet the criteria for knowingly and intentionally causing Goodson’s death.
“Casey did not pose a reasonable threat to him or anybody else when he pulled the trigger,” Shroyer said.
Meade’s defense team maintained Wednesday that Goodson waved and pointed a firearm at Meade from his vehicle as Meade drove by and that Meade pursued Goodson to his grandmother’s home. Meade previously said that Goodson turned to lift his gun before entering the house and aimed it at the deputy, prompting Meade to fire.
