“The View” co-host Whoopi Goldberg asked a question that troubled many during Monday’s episode, in reference to the death of Tyre Nichols. Nichols was killed by five Black police officers, including Officers Tadarrius Bean, Demetrius Haley, Emmitt Martin III, Desmond Mills Jr., and Justin Smith, who were all a part of the SCORPION Unit in the Memphis police department.
“Do we need to see White people also get beat before anybody will do anything?” Goldberg would then go on to quickly add, “‘I’m not suggesting that. So don’t write us and tell me what a racist I am. I’m just asking is that what people have to see in order to wake up and realize this affects us all?”
The comment is shocking to many, as Nichols, a 29-year-old Black man was killed by a White cop, or even just a White person, rather, Nichols was killed by five Black police offers. The five officers unnecessarily beat Nichols for several minutes, despite there being no gun or other weapon present at the scene. While the officers claimed Nichols was resisting arrest, there was no evidence on the bodycam footage to show that Nichols fled arrest in such a way that required a multiple-minute 5-on-1 beating, comparable to a gang attack.
However, left-wing media outlets have been tripping over themselves in a race to turn eyes away from five Black police officers, and toward the vague ideology of “White supremacy” or “systemic racism.”
Articles such as: 5 Black Memphis Cops Upheld Institutional And Cultural Racism In Tyre (Forbes), Black Memphis police spark dialogue on systemic racism in the U.S. (The Washington Post), and Tyre Nichols’ Death: How Black Officers Alone Can’t Stop Brutal Policing (The Marshall Project) choose to not even list the names of the five police officers who murdered an innocent father, rather, they want to blame White people as a whole – similar to Goldberg and her typical schtick.
Despite five police officers currently being charged with second-degree murder in the killing of Tyre Nichols, Goldberg grants these officers the luxury of not repeating their names – because they’re not at the center of attention, political ideology is, not five police officers who chose to kill an innocent man. Unlike when over two years ago, when Derek Chauvin knelt on the neck of George Floyd, the video was frequently replayed and his name was repeated until it was burned into all of our memories, however, most don’t know the name of any of the five officers who killed Nichols.
Bring it on
This B knows this admin in Washington DC is totally behind ALL radical groups like BLM and is protecting them. The war is against “white” racist America, and “people” of color are given a total pass.
Dumber than a box of rocks!
White people get beat up by cops more then black people, but it doesn’t fit the liberal journalists’ narrative, so it doesn’t get reported, and Whoopi, pretending to be a journalist, is too lazy or too stupid to dig it up and report it.
