City of atlanta on friday has confirmed his death was homicide 37 year old ray showed brooks failed a roadside breath test officers say he then resisted arrest grabbing officers taser before attempting to flee after pointing it at one of the officers he was shot twice in the back and died later in hospital distressing video of that incident which youre about to show you too was captured on police body cameras.

People dont try to argue on both sides but georgia law is quite clear you cannot use lethal force in response to nonlethal force d so i think it will fall says will be charged with murder weve had conversations with the District Attorney in this case and hes opened an independent investigation separate and apart from the Georgia Bureau of investigation and people need to understand that Law Enforcement is not the law in georgia the law in georgia happens in courtrooms you can not use. Non you cannot use lethal force to match a non lethal force there is a case of tennessee versus gardner United States free in court cases stands for their opposition so i think that this case is going to end up in the superior court of johnny with murder charges against those officers.

Lee Jefferson Davis and Alexander Stevens actually have statues within the u. S. Capitol building but now the call is coming for those statues to finally be removed 150 years later the possibility has never been so real confederate statues in monuments to pay tribute to White Supremacy and slavery and public spaces it is time to tell the truth about what these statues are hateful symbols that have no place in our society and certainly should not be enshrined in the u. S. Capitol the Confederate Flag is a symbol that many southerners as well as even low income whites in other parts of the country have come to identify with now the declaration is coming from the halls of power saying that its time for this to come to an end the u.

Lees ranch has been converted into Arlington National cemetery so why are Americans Still clashing over a war that ended over 150 years ago i understand what many people are pessimistic about the future of the United States of america because this is a war has not really in it is continuing under a different guise and it would not be outlandish to suggest that the opponents of tearing down these statues objectively or pushing for kind of 2nd class 3rd class citizenship if that were black americans in for any people not defined as white and as long as that kind of permission is idiology persist there will be a simmering civil war in the United States of america as we saw in charlottesville 2 years ago and elsewhere in other parts of the country Many Americans have a strong emotional attachment to these confederate symbols and theyre willing to fight back with one side being branded as nazis and the other side being branded as domestic terrorists civil tensions are high at this point theyre set to flare up even further as the war against honoring the confederacy rolls on a limb up and r.
