OP stop being bias with your news writing. When a police is on scene, one is authorized to raise their hands or stand still without holding anything. She carrying a pot of hot boiling water can definitely be perceived as a weapon & attempt to attack the officer with it. He saw her as a threat, plus she told him: "I rebuke you in the name of Jesus." Definitely, she sounded unstable & a threat to him. Fact, racism is real, but at the same time, doing what is right at the right time is also very important.
You Guys are truly wicked.
U are truly your moniker " Waywardson"
Wayward and Useless shall you remain.
A woman who walked up to her door and opened it. Same woman who lowered her kettle.
Same woman who was defenseless yet she got 3 shots not even one. Not even to her arm.
You Guys are wicked.
Is it not Same video we all watched here?
Unstable what?

AMERICAN law enforcement shoot first,think later.Even though she was acting so unstable was not an excuse to shoot her in the eye.At one stage they were leaving why they entered into her house again beats my imagination. She couldn't even find her ID.

Please stop this madness.
The man already knew he messed up.
We all have got gun rights here.
My family and I go out to shoot on weekends. We stick to the rules of engagement even when loading the rifles and pointing them.

LADIES AND GENTS, I present to you some ways ppl have responded to some of my posts, either aligning with my black American brothers and sisters or exposing the hypocrisy and evilness of the White suptemacist


blueAgent:-
Which one is systematic brutality? Blacks weather ( whether) in Africa or US or anywhere in the world, would have been worst off without whites.


JavaKonjo: CHAI ! ONLY YOU? FBI, CIA, FSB NSA all in one, softly softly with your lies, nigg@s like you love to make up stuff that makes no sense, but pushes your victim agenda grin grin grin grin grin


Can you see?

This poor woman, you may not understand the circumstances here, let me explain:

- she has mental issues ( schizophrenic paranoid) , meaning she is always afraid that some ppl are " out to get her"

- she called the police

- she went to her boiling water but NOT TO HARM THE POLICE

- the white cop had time to tell her to move away from the boiling water BUT HER HANDS WERE RAISED UP!
HER HANDS WERE RAISED!!
SHE WAS EVEN quietly pleasing " sorry...sorry".

- this evil, white supremacist neanderthal with blood lust got close to her, and shot her multiple times IN THE HEAD. HE COULD HAD MOVED AWAY, AND TOLD HER TO GET AWAY FROM THE HOT WATER, if they were really scared for their lives!


- they treated her like dirt, even pretending to want to treat her, after blasting away her brains!

For God's sake, she was alone, scared and was someone else's baby! At least have some sense of humanity! For God's sake!!


You see why the black Americans hate you Nigerians, for always making excuses for these white killers with blood lusts.

Come, let me tell you a secret...
Each white police officer has a non-spoken rite-of-passage which is ingrained in them: you become a man, a real man when you have killed a black man. Same for even a white civilian. It's difficult to understand, but it seems it had been ingrained in them , since they were walking in the icy caves of the Caucasus, killing and eating one another.
You don't have to believe me.

Just go watch: Rashad Ritchie on YouTube , and see how:

- a white woman SHOT UP A POLICE STATION WITH MULTIPLE BULLETS, WITH INTENT TO MURDER WHITE POLICE OFFICERS, and no, no one fired on her, she was taken alive


- the Yorùbá boxer guy killed last month, you remember he had been reporting his killer months before hand. But still he shot him, paused, and shot him again on the head.

- Ombuseli, the stupid Nigerian guy who was insulting black American women , who was dating a white onlyfans girl, who stabbed him over 20 times, the case will DIE! TAKE IT TO THE BANK!! THE GIRL WILL EVENTUALLY BE FREE OF ALL CHARGES.Hope you all know that she's walking free, not in jail ?

- what about naive Sade Robinson who went to see a white boyfriend, and was cut into different pieces by that animal , with blood lust?

- the black woman ( has a Yorùbá name, Ajiun or Àyọkà or something...) murdered by a white woman who simply shot her after she went to knock on her door , to ask why the crazy white woman attacked her child violently while they were playing. The police officers didn't charge her FOR OVER A WEEK NOR, ARREST HER UNTIL BLACK AMERICANS BEGAN PROTEST

-what about the black American Uber driver who couldn't walk well, and went to the destination ( location sent by the app) and was killed by an old white man, who cunningly claimed that some ppl had defrauded him in the past using Uber? The woman was even trying to run, but he shot her. She was just following the message sent by the app

I could go on and on...but what do you think was happening from the 1800s- 2014 when cell phone cameras were not either invented or common?


BLACK AMERICANS WERE BEING SLAUGHTERED WHOLESALE.

Check the riots in New York where black American children were cut into pieces in the 20s, black American towns burned whenever a white told a lie that he was attacked or a black boy groped their lady... their real intentions was to take over their land. Many highways in America were once black American prosperous towns.

These white beings are sick.

I'm glad the evil liberals/ DEMONcrats have been populating Canada and America with you Nigerians, using you for elections and to act as alternative ( divide and conquer) to the Foundational Black Americans.

Very soon, there will be a global movement of white nationalists, who intent to kill Africans in Europe, American & Canada on a large scale, either secretly or openly, because they claim the non-whites are becoming more than them in population.


You will all see.
Shebi, I'm a conspiracy theorist? You will see.

Cc: Olaadegbu , Seun, Beremx, cococandy, Vulcan, 1stGenAmerican, gbemishile


I still don't get why Nigerians defend a white man against the black American.
Are you that low-self esteem?

That you love your enemy ( the ones that killed your good leaders, flustered evil leaders on you eg Babangida and mandated IMF/ World Bank generational debt on you)?

- is it a case of ignorance or Stockholm syndrome?

I just don't get it.

The incident happened 4 days ago and the bastard has been charged with murder

Omoawoke:
This is the worst ever police brutality I’ve ever come across.
The woman”Sonya Massey” was killed by a cop Sean Grayson. The black woman was totally defenseless, armless and she was the one that even called 911 that there was an intruder in her house. The cop got to her house and they were even making jokes, next she went to grab her pot of boiling water and the white policeman opened fire and shot her dead on the head.

This is crazy,

Police release the body cam video and it’s just beyond words the unprovoked killing.
The woman simply said “I rebuked you in the name of Jesus” next the killer policeman brought out his gun and shot her in the face

Warning: it’s a disturbing video

A longer version of the video.

Oh... he will walk. He felt threatened ... the victim was about to burn him ... his life was in danger... he had to take immediate action ... which was within the Police guidelines . Case closed.

If he were Black ...and the woman White ... we would've been learning the charges from press releases by Trump and other politicians.

And by the way your link has been taken down. One wonders why.

Also fascinating how you boldly ignore this woman was murdered with a Democrat in charge but you would have blamed Trump if he was the one in the White House.

Knowing very well they target black and minority communities the most. Some of them don’t truly do what’s in their mind because of legal ramifications

Trump says if he is in office, they’ll never be held accountable again and you know the dog whistle behind that statement

Funny thing the white cop may likely not go to jail or worse 5 years in jail... That's how fxckrd up America justice system is on murder case.

He’s already in jail on multiple charges with no bond. He’ll be convicted and receive more time than Chauvin.

Mentally unstable but never acted erratic in that video. That means every woman who suffered pueperal psychosis or postpartum depression should be henceforth shot at sight even when they appear calm.

People should learn from history, because it keeps repeating itself.

Nothing will happen to him? He was fired and is sitting in jail with multiple charges. including first degree murder. Do you call that nothing? His superiors didn’t think he was defending himself. Obviously, you learned nothing from history either—-Chauvin, who people said nothing would happen to, is serving a prison sentence.

Trump isn't the president, and yet he is being blamed by some orangutans here. If he was the president, they would still say it is because Trump is president.

Obama, the erudite public speaker and black president and democrat was there two terms, wasn't able to strengthen/coalesce the black community or even reduce black killings, but Trump is their problem.

Same Trump that didn't start any wars during his tenure, but they say is violent, and will be the end of the world, forgetting he was already there for 4 years and the world didn't end.

Ment!


Trump caused the most undemocratic thing ever in the US by rejecting an election result and inciting violent invasion into the capitol.
Maybe you need to watch the documentary of the January 6 invasion. All his white supremacy bastardds were there flashing white supremacy symbols . The proud boys, oath keepers and the worst racists in America organized that invasion for Trump.
And yet he is promising police immunity once he comes to power, what do you think will happen?
Politics aside, but this is people’s lives we are talking about.

Maybe you should read about the oath keepers, these guys are former and current police officers, the most racist ones to ever exist. They were the people who Trump invited to disrupt January 6

The bodycam from the other officers is evidence, that’s why he’s sitting in jail as we speak.
