Or there are the people that ignore the history of lynchings of Black American Men during times of white supremacist backlash. Should people just ignore centuries of abuse not only facilitated but done by law enforcement so that some people can be comfortable during the backlash ?
No not at all, that’s not what I’m saying. It’s just that there is no evidence to support anything other than suicide. He had no injuries, had an active warrant out for his arrest, had a hospital band on and he was living in emergency housing. It doesn’t sound like things were going well for him, a suicide seems so much more likely than a massive conspiracy and cover up. Just looking at the case pragmatically based on the facts available.
Yes there is absolutely tons of horrific cases of lynching and race motivated killings in the USA’s history as well as current day. I’m not disputing that. There is also a considerable history of the government and accelerationist groups using tragedies like this suicide to create violent riots and social unrest. Especially considering the current administration. We need to look at current evidence and react accordingly. Giving the fascist any reason to further crack down hurts everyone but the elites. My heart breaks for the victim and the family 100%. I’m not against further investigation either. If foul play is discovered ANYONE involved should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. But, until we have any evidence at all that suggests that we need to stay objective.
Again, you’re spreading misinformation. The second autopsy hasn’t been released yet and even members of the victims family have come out to apologize for pushing that false narrative. I’m linking a reputable article below that came out hours ago stating all the facts on that specific case. You want an outcome thats easier to accept but doesn’t currently have any evidence backing it.

What massive conspiracy? They are just racist cops in the south who refused to do an autopsy. There’s no “conspiracy” needed.
A black person hanging from a tree in southern US always suggests foul play, and it should always be investigated as such.
If you don’t understand why, then you need to read some US history.
