This was in response to shoplifting!? SHOPLIFTING!?
I guess that was on me for assuming the context would make this better and not 100 times worse.
But, didn’t you read? The officers said that the car may have went in their general direction.
Stolen diapers for the one year old that the police slaughtered is justified to kill a black person.
God I fucking hate this world.
FFVII Revelation is coming. I’m stealing the black fucking materia and calling meteor myself
No this was the response because she was black and shoplifting. It was 100% a race thing.
Shoplifting a singular pack of diapers, btw
No evidence released: Suspected shoplifting at best.
Again, this is the kinda shit the French would start burning their country down for.
Accused of stealing 20 dollars worth of diapers? Death penalty without trial for you and the occupants of your vehicle.
Also, you want the footage that your tax dollars paid for? Fuck you.
That’s one thing, another question is, what kind of society we are living in where a mother is forced to steal diapers?
I also see stores that put baby formulas behind lock.
Those are not some luxurious items, those things people would only steal if they had no other choice.
++downvote shield
Technical correction: She’s accused of driving her vehicle towards officers, which they used to justify the shooting.
Disclaimer: I am not saying the shooting was justified. I know nothing about where the officers were or how she was driving.
Conservatives love kids, until they’re born.
Then some of them love them even more 😒
That was so deep
Wow so the extraducial execution of innocent babies is justified for the petty crime of shoplifting in Mississippi? That is fuckin crazy. The attorney general is a demonic souless hag.
In a state with which bans abortion.
I guess if you need a late-stage abortion you can always go shoplift some diapers.
Out of the womb, fit for the tomb, that’s the Mississippi way.
Not post-birth abortions, apparently.
The crime was not the shoplifting, it was being black. None of this is about the diapers.
in what SHIT HOLE country do ‘cops’ draw weapons for stolen diapers?!?!
the diapers were insured with loss prevention, deadly force was NOT justified.
BLACK LIVES MATTER
Also, if you steal diapers and nothing else then maybe, JUST MAYBE you probably just can’t afford them despite them being rather essential in raising a child. Which doesn’t make it a non-crime, but it’s probably a sign that you’re actually in need.
And here I was thinking that raping kids, evading tax and making your country the lapdog of Russia should be punished more severely than stealing diapers out of necessity.
Exactly my thought process, especially since they haven’t produced any evidence of shoplifting and the cop shot a kid
To bad they dont vote. They could have Texas lousiana and Mississippi purple or blue if they’d vote, but they don’t and don’t care too. Fuck kamala they said. No one even has to pander to them on either side. Because whats the point, they don’t vote anyways.
They’re out there shooting their kids over a thing of diapers and they don’t care.
I’m genuinely surprised, eat my hat, and sorry for being wrong.
I wasn’t making a statement one way or another. I was just curious as to how true or false that was.
I’d say you’re in the realm of reasonable. 38% turnout is pretty pathetic. So is 55%.
If we’re not pushing 85% or more, something is wrong.
Thanks because I wanted to say that kind of because it should be like 90-100% ideally, yanno? but I also feel like I might have sounded really racist and don’t want to like seem like I’m just changing goal posts or trying to continue being just a jerk.
That and imagine the political power they suddenly have if they do start to turn out at 85% while whites are still sitting at 55%.
Georgia is 33% black, 57% white.
Georgia’s population is 11.3 million, 77.8% 18 and older is 8.79m.
At the rates in that chart that would be 1.07m black voters, 2.5m white.
85% black turnout would put them at 2.47m votes.
Maybe this year will be the year to turn out. I hope.
You’re a good person, you know. Based solely on this thread, I can see that. 🫶
I was feeling very bad about myself, really thanks for saying that.
Do you know why we’re not pushing that percentage? People need to work. Sometimes two jobs, especially somewhere like Mississippi where the minimum wage is still $7.25. People can’t take a day off. Last time I voted in Mississippi, I was in line for 2 hours, and that was at like 11am because I was lucky to have a desk job that let me work from home and understood the importance of voting. Minimum wage jobs do not get that.
So glad I live in Washington state now where everyone gets their ballot mailed to them 2 weeks in advance. For general elections, we’re about 70-80% turnout.
I think preventing police from killing your children justifies missing two hours of work. Especially if it would cause a grand total of $14.50 gross income loss. Or fight to have elections on Sundays, like 80%+ of democracies do.
But I’ve spent some time close to France, so it might be their influence.
But if missing two hours of work causes you to lose your minimum wage job, then it’s not just a $14.50 loss.
hard to vote when the opposition cheats.

Voting is literally the absolute least anyone can do.
mother fucker. there are people walking hours to vote.
they straight up million man marching they asses to the polls.
when’s the last time you ever did some crazy ass shit like that? next time you pop your ass on the toilet and watch a movie you think about that for them people. all that time you spend shitting while watching Johnny Depp his balls in the ocean you could have been marching to save democracy.
come up in here telling people who already giving their all that their all ain’t good enough.
get the fuck outta here with that shit.
Nah get fucked your own self with that bot ass comment. I understand voter suppression is a thing. Voting in every single election is still the absolute bare ass fucking minimum every single citizen can do. Literally the absolute least. If you don’t vote in every single election you’re tacitly supporting the people in power. Go fuck yourself, fuckin shitstains all over this garbage ass site working for MAGA trying to keep people from voting. Fuck you, go vote.
easy to say from your tower of white privilege.
Are “they” in the room with us now??
Truth hurts
and its your job to dispense this hurt?
Nah. Listen, some one else shared the stats they’re at like 38 %. It should be 88-98%. Every black woman I was close enough in the military to ask said they didn’t vote, I’m not just being a jerk.
But while it’s true they aren’t voting much- I was wrong- black people are voting a bit more than other demographics and deserve less social shame than other demographics. but they still deserve some shame.
Did you also ask them if they joined epsteins army for “muh freedums” or a paycheck?
At what point did you realise you were killing innocent brown school kids overseas so your pigs at home could kill black babies in mississippi?
Played on computers, didn’t kill anyone, and I’m a woman and was sexually discriminated out by hegseths army of misogynists… so, no and I’m not there anymore.
You know I’m a real person right? I just dont get why there’s a reason to treat someone like this.
Black women don’t vote?? You’re a fucking moron. This is what happens when you take a handful of interactions and paint a whole group based on them.
Stop being a drama queen.

What the fuck? They did vote even though liberals opposed even just defunding the police.

Black people can vote or not vote however the fuck they want, you crackers are the ones who support the cracker police killing babies.
Good lord. Stop being weird.
“They”. Sorry, did I miss the part where the article mentioned the voting habits of the family? Because this sounds like some racist bullshit.
Only an idiot can call the death of a 1 yr old justified, laws withstanding.
We’re a deeply broken country.
Objectively how can anyone say it’s justified to shoot a baby? What the fuck are we doing?
They aimed for the mother and hit the baby by accident. The mother was accused of stealing diapers.
Like, this whole thing is fucked up. Nonviolent offenses do not warrant the use of lethal force.
It would have been justified to kill the mother for trying to take care of her baby, it would also have been justified to kill her if she had wanted to get it aborted.
/s just in case
Especially when his mother’s only crime was being poor and desperate? The real criminals here are wearing suits, not stealing diapers for their sons.
America is crazy. A women does shoplifting and officers shoot at her? I don’t know if you guys know how insane your country is.
Dont you have some law that officers only can use deadly force when their life or someone else’s life is in danger?
Not just shoplifting but literally stole a pack of diapers. People don’t steal diapers for fun, that’s obviously someone who was out of options, and took the only option left to her
Edit to add: apparently she didn’t even steal the diapers! Some customer said they thought she did and she didn’t have the receipt (because who grabs the receipt when they go and buy a single consumable item?)
Shops are also insured so it doesn’t even affect the owner. Some super rich insurance company gets to pay for a new pack of diapers.
Compare this with what’s going on in France, where thousands of immigrants are rioting and burning down stores and cars. Millions of dollars in damage. The police there still just use tear gas and rubber bullets and haven’t killed anyone.
America is in its own league of police brutality.
You might be getting your news from Fox about France.
I dont watch TV news at all, but ive watched YouTube videos from the riots filmed by ordinary people. That’s probably as close to the truth you can get without being there.
As is commonly known, in France they brand the word “immigrant” on the forehead of immigrants for easy identification.
As some late night host said (Stewart?): do you think immigrants are the ones who are rioting IN FRANCE?
Let me give you a hint: one of the places they rioted was the Bastille square.
Videos show black men with red, white, green flags so yes, it’s not the native French. :)
Of course it’s immigrants.
Have you seen the French national team? Judging people by their skin color is… how do you call it…
Are you trying to say the rioters in France are Mexicans?
She was also driving in the direction of the police officers. What else were they supposed to do? Stand out of they way? Not shoot a one year old child?
We haven’t seen the body warn yet, but the issue is why is shooting at her automatically justified in this context? Driving at officers or not. Why did officers put themselves in the position to be driven at, why not just tail her and pull her over, why not get her registration and go to her address. There are far more alternative options than (as seems to the standard) going for maximum force first.
why is shooting at her automatically justified
The cop saw her holding up a baby. He was shooting at the baby.
Presumably this was justifiable self defense because the baby was the reason the mother needed diapers and if she hadn’t needed diapers the cop would not be fearing for his life at that moment
<insert drake confused meme>
We are being very sarcastic, the disassociation helps me process a tragedy like this. There is absolutely no context that would make this justifiable, the fact that a judge still deemed it so shakes me to my core.
Tailing people ends up in high showed chases and kills others, not really an option.
Surely you are not only thinking now, that America is crazy, right? I mean, they legit elected a fucking child rapist to be their president. Only in America™, ladies and gentlemen.
murica fuck yea
Nope. Most state laws shield cops from trouble as long as they were trying to be a cop and openly doing cop stuff. There would be a review, but the review is just to establish the cop was doing cop stuff. Even not following “procedure” isn’t enough to remove the veil of legitimacy.
Freedom to the fullest, especially to exploit.
In the Land of The Free, you are obligated to kneel before your betters.
Land of the free that made slaves to build [it].
A women does shoplifting and officers shoot at her?
Cops love to shoot people. You barely need to give them justification.
Dont you have some law that officers only can use deadly force when their life or someone else’s life is in danger?
Im sure a bootlicker like you will absolutely adore the concept.if only the police in France could just murder who they want… right? Then the cost of living crisis will be resolved and the schools will be fully funded.
Thanks but I dont see how I’m a bootlicker for thinking it’s awful how police shoots someone?
Wtf is this comment?
I blame the liberal gun laws. Because everyone potentially could be armed police officers constantly feel life threatened.
That’s no excuse.
Soldiers being sent into literal combat against enemy troops have rules of engagement that don’t allow them to fire unless fired upon. Why do police dealing with civilians have less-strict rules of engagement?
Not to mention other countries also having crime, and criminals with guns. They don’t use their weapons against people who are not a danger to anyone.
The mentality in America is difficult to understand from the outside. It’s very evil.
It’s difficult from the inside too.
The problem is people here are used to it being “the way things are” so they don’t go through the mental exercise of trying to understand it. It’s seen as perfectly normal, so it’s never questioned.
In the US the sky is blue, water is wet, and police are assumed to have been justified any time they kill someone.
Old white woman says it’s ok to shoot black babies, classy MS
We need to be more French. Learn, study, practice.
I hate this fucking country.
Just imagine what we would be justified in doing if this is justified in the leadership class’s heads.
Murdering a mother and baby over a package of diapers.
Welcome to trump’s police state.
Giving trump ownership gives him far more credit than his ego deserves. This has been a long time in the making, he’s just the latest in the long line of demagogues.
This is racism that’s been festering forever. The Boomers couldn’t let it go and passed it on.
Greatest generation my assThe greatest generation are the guys who fought WW1. They called the boomers the “me” generation, lmao.
The Boomers couldn’t let it go and passed it on. Greatest generation my ass
Just a heads up, that’s not another term for Baby Boomer and has never been associated with them. The Greatest Generation were born between 1901 and 1927. Boomers were born between 1946 and 1964. And there’s an entire generation, appropriately called the Silent Generation, separating them.
Yeah, this is Mississippi police killing
2a blackpeopleperson. Unfortunately that’s nothing new, but it’s still something to be angry aboutTrump’s States of America.
We’ve been killing black babies longer than Trump’s been around but yeah, I’m not keen on the mask coming fully off. It’s gonna get loud in here.
Buddy, this is as American as apple pie, lmao. Where do you think the police came from? They used to be slave catchers!
had stolen a pack of diapers. The women exited the store with the child as officers arrived, entered their vehicle and began to leave the parking lot. Officers drew their weapons, and Vellesiya Wiley lifted her son up to show the officers that a child was in the car. One officer fired into the vehicle, killing the baby as she held him.
stealing diapers or bread, should be a lesser crime, than stealing jewelry or clothing. Neither should justify shooting when running/driving away. If they put their hands up holding a baby, they are unlikely driving super fast, and may in fact doing step 1 of surrendering.
Even if a diaper thief were to use a hostage as human shield, shooting is only legally justified in Israel, where hannibal directive extended to civilians is part of their non-negotiation hatred towards the “palestinian problem”, and where Mississippi has and may still view violent oppression as the preferred “solution” to their racial tensions.
Any kind of stealing. I don’t care if they stole a diamond or the Mona Lisa, that doesn’t deserve the death penalty, much less an extrajudicial killing.
But as the other 49 say: thank God for Mississippi. And as the other 190 say: what the fuck is happening over there?
This world is ripe for an uprising against the ruling class and their bootlickers. The problem is getting everyone to agree on what they want.
I just have a constant pit in my stomach, knowing every day the constant thoughts in my mind egging me into impulsive action may one day lead me to do something that in the end will just be used as “moral” fodder against neighbors and people I care about.
But truly, when is enough, enough?
This world? Have you seen the French like every other year? Hungarians?
It’s mostly americans that just complain online and do nothing. Ice kills people on the street? My boss won’t let me protest. The president steals a few billions? That doesn’t affect me. A new war doubles the price of gas and sends groceries through the roof? Oh, DC is too far away…
To your last point, The distance from Paris to Moscow is 1500 miles, while the distance from los angeles to NYC is over 2500 miles.
For the rest, yeah it’s ridiculous, our turnout is not even a 10th of what it should be considering the insanity
The distance from Mombasa to Bangkok is 4500 miles. Which is equally irrelevant for protesting against literal murder.
Folks like to pretend Mississippi is the exemption. The bitter truth is that they’re just more naked in their cruelty.
We’re seeing Italy and France dissolve into police riots and neoliberal poverty just on the other side of the pond. We saw the same in Baltimore and St. Louis not that long ago.
The only possible reason to shoot a thief imo is if they perhaps stole firearms or explosives, as one could reason they are stealing them imwkth I tent to cause great harm. But fucking diapers? Hell a car? It’s just stuff not to mention these stores all have theft insurance anyways!! Or it’s been accounted for (see inventory “shrink”)
I was with you until the tinfoil hat israel bit. Weird, dude.
I often find myself sharing similar thoughts when reading comments that seem reasonable at first, but go off the deep end.
The Hannibal directive, is an official IDF protocol to kill captured soldiers. Oct 7th reaction included both mass shooting through civilian hostages on the day, and Helicopter mass firing on anyone running at the music festival. The genocidal bombing campaign that followed was specifically to avoid negotiations by exterminating hostages too.
So, your “tinfoil hat hasbara” bs disgustingly masks a far worse/extreme Israeli attitude towads “palestinian problem” than Mississipi’s historical attitudes towards “dealing with the negro problem”, which is if you lynch a few regardless of any guilt, it will teach the rest of them to stay in line.
No man, the problem is that you brought something completely unrelated to the post up. The complete blindside of a transition from one subject to the next in a completely unhinged manner is the “tinfoil hat” I’m referring to.
Don’t shoot when a human shield is being used is police training in most places. The transition is hateful supremacist cultures get “government justification” for it.
Last I checked Mississippi wasn’t in Israel.
I’m sure the baby was a terrorist or something.
Hamas?
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
