Poor damn kid Murdered, shot in the back, for 10 grams of weed.
The article also asks why there is no outrage for this kid's death, because he is white? I don't know about that, what do you guys think?

Also, the two Dutch police officers who killed Mike Stok are found guilty of manslaughter, but won't be facing any consequences

Like you said -- he's white.
The liberal "news" networks want white on black. White on black equals explosive ratings and riot potential. White kid being shot doesn't even register on their radar.

It shows the typical racism of the media and liberals in general. Whites have been taught to be self hating, just look at some of the posts in the shroomery and you will see that over and over. They believe only black lives matter and white lives do not. Its disgusting as are the people who buy into it.

Does anyone actually have the coroners report, because that website doesn't link it, or a video, and makes a lot of claims. There could be a lot of detail missing from that story and that site didn't link anything to back up anything it was claiming.
Not defending police killing kids, but there are definitely circumstances where it would be justifiable and some article writer telling me what happened isn't evidence of any kind for me to make any type of decision on it.
They could of just as easily made it seem like it was like that because they are also reporting news and want people to read there shit so they get paid, so they can be just as guilty as fabricating something or twisting the view on it in order to get a certain reaction/grab the attention of people.
There's nothing to base anything on one way or another besides what the person who wrote the article says, granted I didn't have time to read the entire thing but I skimmed through looking for links and sources to their claims and couldn't find any.
I mean I guess they attempted proof by showing people commenting on twitter about it and a meme using the kids face at the bottom, but I want facts, not opinions.
Articles as vague and lacking sources like this one is how "hands up, don't shoot" bullshit started when it was totally fabricated, there was no proof but people kept saying and reporting it.

i wonder why white people are ignored in the media? maybe it's because white people don't protest and get angry enough.

Maybe white people WAIT for an investigation to finish as the facts come out before rushing to judgment and then crying about how "cops are murdering our children on the street for no reason" bullshit.

It is truly amazing. If any of these kids spent time outside the U.S. they would realize how good the police are here and how real humanity can get outside of this nice soft bubble of privilege.
If you have never had to bribe a police officer not to take your motorcycle, don't talk to me about "power hungry cops"

yes, police investigate themselves properly all the time.

Obviously not since, in response to Black Lives Matter, a group of white women started All Live Matter, so their silence on this issue would be disconcerting to me. You should talk to them.
Since they can co-opt a movement, maybe they can co-opt some compassion...

You have half a million, not all well trained men with guns roving the streets like the way to stop crime is to fight some internal enemy and scare people into not breaking the law. Of course we are going to have a few wrong shootings a day. I shouldn't say poorly trained. Sometimes being agressive is the training. I also think the fact police can use as much force as needed to get compliance rather sick. There are some serious jerks out there that you need to control or shoot. It's such a strange difficult job to do

Wilmore had Falonious Monk on talking about all lives vs. black lives and the reason why no one really like the phrase "all lives matter" because it washes the fact that black people as a majority have a completely different experence in this country including but not limited to police encounters and housing loans.
'all lives' seems like a way for us to not really deal with the problem. Which we're still arguing if the problem actually exists. But really, if u look at it and are intelligent, it's easy to see desparity and slightly more difficult to see the opression behind that deaparity.
