Question for the white people: Why didn't you all show out in massive nationwide protests for Tony Timpa?
"Tony Timpa called the Dallas police in August 2016 to ask for help. The 32-year-old, white, college-educated executive was off the medication he usually took for anxiety and schizophrenia, as he told the police dispatcher.
But when five Dallas police officers arrived on the side of the road where Timpa was, they did not give him the help he needed. Instead, they handcuffed him behind his back, zip-tied his feet, and Officer Dustin Dillard put his knee and bodyweight on Timpa’s back.
The officers’ body cameras recorded Timpa crying for help, pleading with them, saying “you’re gonna kill me!” over and over again. After nine minutes under Officer Dillard’s knee, Timpa stopped moving."

He died after a cop kneeled on his neck for 14 minutes. Now, his family can finally sue.

What is your agenda by questioning the intent of the person behind the tweet? Why do people have these diverse ideas vs. having status quo talking points?
