Disgusting List of Blacks Killed by Police 2014-Present
The names on this list of blacks killed by police were extracted from Killed By Police (www.killedbypolice.net), and is current as of 4:54 pm Friday May 1, 2015.
No judgment on the actions of the people in custody that some would use to justify their deaths is being passed here; this list makes no assessment of anyone’s guilt or innocence, and is not the least bit concerned with any “crime” which may or may not have allegedly been committed.
What this list does is set out the names and ages of the hundreds of black men and women which were knowingly killed in police custody or at the hands of law enforcement officers in the United States from January 2014 through today.
Note that this list does not include black men and women like Trayvon Martin or Jordan Davis, whose assassinations by white civilians were defended in a court of law under “stand your ground” laws.
This list also excludes dozens of questionable deaths over the past 18 months – like Otis Byrd, found hanging from a tree in the woods 15 feet above the ground with no chair in sight, or Lennon Lacy who was found hanging from a swing set in North Carolina in what looks like a lynching, or Renisha McBride, whose white male murderer was sentenced to prison for shooting her at point blank range outside his door when she knocked seeking help.
The list also excludes cases listed on killedbypolice.net that do not show photos of the deceased, so the race of the victim could not be easily determined. Some of those could also be black.
Nor does the list include dozens of murders at the hands of police around the country prior to 2014 – like 16 year old Kimani Gray, gunned down by New York cops as he left a party.
Why?
Because the #blacklivesmatter movement, established in response to police murder and terrorism of Black Americans had not yet been launched. Therefore, this is a comprehensive list, but hardly a complete list of blacks killed by police.
However, this disgusting list is highly important in the environment in which we find ourselves. Sure, Michael Brown, Eric Garner, Freddie Gray, Trayvon Martin, Rodney King, and Tamir Rice got headlines and demonstrations, but their well-being and lives are no more important than any of the other victims. Every single person on this list was loved and will be missed by many. We need to remember them as well.

If this doesn’t make you angry, then nothing will. We are in a fight for our very lives. With the prison system privatized and in full profit mode, whites now have a profit motive to incarcerate blacks for ridiculously lengthysentences and have them do slave labor while locked up. Prison is the new slavery, and cops are the new overseers.
Get ready for battle. We have returned to the 1960s and must once again fight for our rights to exist, to live freely, to have opportunities to advance ourselves and our children in life, to walk down the damn street or drive through our cities without being accosted by cops for no damn reason.
Blacks people SHOULD be very angry, absolutely disgusted and tired of being murdered. Stop singing “WE SHALL OVERCOME” and get off your ass and do something to make it happen.
White people SHOULD be very angry, absolutely disgusted, and tired of people who look like them doing egregious acts that define their entire race as racist, hateful animals. Those who refuse to treat their fellow man with disdain should be getting off their asses and doing something to effect change.
We must stop wasting time fighting each other and get it together. Mobilize, organize, politicize, and strategize. Start with how to take back your block, your neighborhood, your city, your county, and your state from racist police. Get people out to vote and replace Mayor’s, District Attorneys, City Councilmen, Supervisors and anyone else whose agenda is not in your best interest. Make sure those who are in office are not in league with police unions, and that they will make any cop who does not perform to the standard expected is terminated immediately and forever.
That’s not the whole answer to what is going on in the USA with cops who kill blacks, but it’s a damn good start.

NO NO NO I wish you would not say as black people we should be very angry. This is the problem. Many black people are sitting home watching this rioting shit, saying “OH NO, HERE THEY GO AGAIN.” If people would all mellow out, and not fight the police, there is no reason for them to abuse a person, black, brown, or white. Not all police hate a particular race, but when the police feel they are confronted with a person of gang or tribal mentality, they have to take things into consideration. When they have to confront anyone, the attitude and mental state of that person is taken into account, affecting and reinforcing the behavior of the police. I have seen them take down and rough up white boys just as fast. The police departments do not have time to send a black officer if they know they are dealing with a person of color. It just cannot work this way. Staying angry and fighting before anything is even said, assuming it’s because of race, is really the problem. Really, when a person of color is pulled over, just simply questioned, or whatever, it is not the end of the world, but they respond as if it is. How much better it would go if they were cool about it and stop the reputation branding that all black people get from the thugs seen on the news. They are not out to kill you, really! They need to stop assuming and overreacting as if they are chained and shackled (as if they are carrying drugs??)
I don’t care what you wish. It’s irrelevant to me. I say what I think not what you think.
