Say his name

Edward Bronstein


More or less identical to George Floyd's end.

Edward didn't want to take a blood test because of a fear of needles. So they pinned him down and put the knee on him. He screamed and screamed out that he can't breath.

I've just watched the video. It's shocking and horrifying.

I'm not gonna post it here but it is on YouTube so the choice is yours. It's hard to watch so be warned.

This happened either shortly before or shortly after George Floyd. Not sure on that detail.

YouTube channel is called "Joe Public UK"

was it racially motivated unlike that of Floyd?

[Alf]

was it racially motivated unlike that of Floyd?Don't think so.

The ethnicity of Edward I believe was Caucasian.

Apparently it happened two months before George Floyd.

I didn't hear a thing about it until this evening.

Blue lives matter gonna be real quiet on this one. Hopefully his family get justice.

that seems odd after all the kerfuffle of the whole other thing?

We probably didn't hear about it because white people are the most-killed by police, both literally and proportionately.

If riots kicked off every time a white person was unduly killed by cops, America would never stop burning.

There's a reason it's so newsworthy when a black person passes away in police custody under suspicious circs.

So this hasn’t been to court yet? What’s the delay!

Makes it all the more laughable that a large portion of white Americans chose to put these cops on a pedastal just to spite black people.

The GF trial started a year ago, obviously this case didn’t get the push for justice from the media as it’s got bog all to do with race is and all about police officers abusing their status

[UserSince2005]

No one cares because he was white. Sad.

[Toy Soldier]

No one cares because he was white. Sad.

I don't think it's that no one cares but it can't really be discussed here now because it was raised with an agenda rather than as an actual discussion point...
