Facts count. And we know for a fact that the soldier is the one who was arrested not the black man. That should tell you enough about what happened. In the video you can hear someone saying the black man was "arguing" with a neighboor yet the authorities did not arrest the black man because he obviously DID NOTHING. 

The only thing he did was being black. 

Let's not justify systemic racism. 

I agree he was obviously the agressor and i did say he was arrested so obviously hes the problem. I never put that into question on who the victim was if u read my comments carefully

 

What i said was we dont have context on how this started or what the reason was that set off the argument so that users comment about wanting context does not automatically make him racist because hes not wrong that we dont know...

 

A hot head can literally make mountains out of molehills and explode in anger with anyone for anything, humans have been fighting eachother over nothing since the dawn of time. Because a black man in involved does not automatically mean racism was the reason this argument even tho its a very strong possibility

 

No one is justifying systemic racism here. Dont even know where ur getting that from

I see the “well just because there’s a black person doesn’t mean it has to do with race “ troop has arrived

[Chris Thomason 1,036]

Police were told the young guy approached several of the soldier's neighbours in a threatening manner and someone asked the soldier to intervene, theres a few reports of alleged assault from the young man but that's still under investigation. Apparently the young guy has medical conditions that could explain his "threatening" behaviour. There's a lot of missing background info on the incident but thats where the story is at atm

I think @ZiggyZiggs was saying “I love this song!” about the fact that the soldier faced repercussions for his actions. As in it was “pleasing to his ear” to hear that. 
 

I highly doubt they were trying to say “I love hearing about people assaulting black people”

So they got a call about a potentially mentally-ill person in need of assistance and they chose to assault him? Yeah this doesn’t make that racist dude look any better.

Before I say I anything I want to know the full story...but the soldier should have never brought violence into the situation, but the Black must have done something to aggravate him..or the guys just racist

The soldier was already arrested. They should arrest his wife too for egging him on.

Agreed

 

But i knew there had to be more to the story than just "he was on the sidewalk". Usually when stuff seems that unbelievable its cuz theres pieces of the story missing. A 30 second video never tells u everything

 

Correct me if im wrong but 90% of racist ppl in the 21st century are THAT openly or blantantly racist or that much of a white supremacist that they are gonna go agress a POC for no reason at all

 

Its typically more like a racial bias or distaste will make them create a situation out of something small or blow it out of proportion a lot more easily

Got something to say in defense of yourselves for a disgusting "YAS" reaction? Like wtf is wrong with you or you're just okay with explicit racism walking while black?

What the f**k... 

ARE U FVCKING KIDDING ME RN  2 hours away from GGD and I come back to this mess?? Do you y'all even know mee?? If you have seen my posts before or if you go through my history you can see exactly the kind of person I am. I am one of a handful of BIPOC users on here who have blatantly called out the racism on GGD. multiple times.

When i wrote that comment the topic read 'WHITE MAN ARRESTED FOR ASSAULTING BLACK MAN' or something along those lines basically saying the white man was facing charges for what he did. My comment and YAS reaction were a direct response to that.

Now the topic reads 'Soldier shoving black man'. My comment and reaction were NOT in response to the current topic name. Did you or did you not change the topic name and gaslight everyone who YAS'ed and call us racist @Aphasic Top ??? u know exactly wtf you were doing with this mess. You know you changed the topic name and instead of clearing it up u started calling us racists LIKEE????? are u fvcking joking? I think i'm not mistaken when i say @Regina George and @Rock Jock are in the same position as i am.

@dynamite 'i love this song' is sort of twitter lang/ a meme and it basically means 'we love when people get what they deserve', here, when a white person is finally and properly facing repercussions for their racist actions.

I am tagging people so that they get the whole picture @xcx @StarstruckIllusion

Fuming rn

I really like your posts and you are kind to others but in the USA "walking on the sidewalk" is enough for people to get attacked. Have you seen the amount of Asian and Pacific Islanders who LITERALLY all the did was EXIST (walk on the sidewalk) to be attacked?

Sometimes a 30 second video tells you EVERYTHING.

I know your comments come from a good place but the video shows very clearly who is the victim in this scenario. 

The black man looks very calm and all you hear and see in the video (you can clearly hear others) is other people attacking him.

It's obviously a misunderstanding. I want to clarify I never said you were racist.

I just didn't think your comment and reaction were respectful. 

Now that you've explained I appreciate you coming clear about it.
