Posting this news again because I don't think this recent police killing has gotten enough attention.
On January 26, LA police shot and killed Anthony Lowe, a Black man whose legs had been amputated. Lowe was out of his wheelchair and hobbling away on the stumps of his legs at the time they shot him.
Police in the U.S. are simply beyond reform. Police do not save lives. They take them.
