Petition: LA's DA Lacey needs to start prosecuting killer cops

The petition: bit.ly/BLMLA

 



The comment I just made after signing the petition:

In the history of LA policing there has never been as much right to murder Black men, women and children by police of ANY COLOR. It's important to identify that the anti-Blackness of LAPD is not just white, it's also Latino, it's South Asian, it's also in some sad cases I may or may not be related to Black...but that doesn't mean we can't all come out the other side of this. First step? #FireBeck and have DA Lacey start prosecuting police officers who shoot community residents. Next step start listening to Black Lives Matter: Los Angeles, and start attending events they encourage you to attend and start changing the policies they recommend you do. All while overhauling and changing from top to bottom the way LAPD polices, the community input it needs to stop ignoring and the amazing officers it needs to re-train in diversity and inclusion that's representative of an understanding of anti-Blackness, white supremacy and policings role in upholding it. Then? I feel like we might be able to really start talking about getting to space and saving the galaxy, but that's just me. Start with the basics first? #FireBeck.
