12 year old black boy shot by a white cop for having a BB gun. I’m fucking disgusted. The boy is fighting for his life right now. 

This is beyond ridiculous

“The young man”.
I like how the reporter corrected him on the spot and said “the boy”.
They use certain words to make us seem older than we are to take away a layer of innocence.

12-year-old boy wielding what turned out to be a BB gun when he was shot by police outside a Cleveland recreation center has died, police union official confirms – @clevelanddotcom

His name was Tamir E. Rice. 

He was a child playing with a toy. And he was murdered.

And this fucking asshole white cop has the nerve to call him a “young man.” He’s already trying to justify this – how long before he starts calling this baby a thug, or a gangster? 

AND HE WAS A BABY. And white people wanna talk about “it’s not about race.” Remember Tamir and the countless innocent Black lives that have been stolen. While white serial killers and murderers get escorted carefully away. While white people in Target are carrying loaded shotguns and shit. While these white cops/murderers get put on paid leave.
