Breonna Taylor
On March 13th, in Louisville, Kentucky Breonna Taylor (26) was shot in the crossfire, when her boyfriend shot at cops issuing a search warrant. Breonna's ex-boyfriend (Jamarcus Glover) was wanted for dealing drugs and had been using Breonna's address (which is why the cops went there), and Breonna was also named in that warrant. All evidence is she would have been killed in the same situation if she had been white, asian or latino -- so BLM, DNC and the media sensationalized the "racial injustice" and pretended she was a pillar of the black community, and violent riots happened for weeks.
Media meme: an innocent black woman paramedic (EMT) was killed in her bed during an abusive no-knock warrant, where the cops kicked down her door, and her boyfriend was surprised and pulled a gun, and the reckless cops fired 20 shots and killed this pillar of the black community for no good reason.
Truth: Breonna's ex-boyfriend was a drug dealer, had been using her address, and there's reasons to believe she had been involved with his illegal activities. When police intentionally de-escalated a no-knock warrant they had, to a normal knock and enter warrant -- they knocked, announced and entered (according to witnesses), and her new boyfriend Kenneth Walker, opened fire injuring one cop. That's when the cops started shooting back and Breonna was hit 7 times. Walker, in defense of his crimes helped exagerate what had happened to distract from his negligence, and BLM, DNC and the far left media all went along to inflame civil unrest in the name of justice for Breonna. (As if burning down buildings and assassinating cops is what she would have wanted).
What we know:
- A grand jury (with black members on it) exonerated the cops and didn't bring charges, because the evidence was that no crimes had been committed. When cops are shot at, and one is hit first, returning fire is a completely reasonable response. There might be policy questions that we should resolve -- but the outrage by the far left over the injustice of police self-defense (not being charged) is moronic, even if there are valid questions or complaints about the exact processes.
- BLM, the DNC, and the media got the information wrong, and sensationalized facts to make this about race and inflame the ignorant black community and activists into rioting, and trying to assassinate cops for the injustice of self defense.
- We know that there's no policy that says it's OK to shoot black women, but not whites, asians or latino's for doing the same things. So there's no evidence this is about race, just an attitude that makes some think they're entitled to special privilege because of their color, and to not get shot while making bad choices.
- the media and DNC and BLM terrorists all misrepresented the facts. Whether this was ignorance of malice doesn't matter, people died because of their irresponsibility. That makes them MORE culpable than the cops. So if people are outraged because of the police policies that lead to an innocent death, that's valid -- as long as they are equally or more outraged at the repeated irresponsibility of the DNC, BLM, and media that has lead to more deaths and riots. If they aren't, they're just hypocrites that can/should be ignored.
Occam's razor - what seems more likely?

Who is more responsible for the actions:
- The cops for issuing a warrant against a known bad guy at all the places he was known to reside (and stash drugs), and they were doing at worst excessive self-defense after getting shot at
- A woman for having a drug dealer as an ex-boyfriend, and a trigger happy one as a current one -- that fired on cops and was shot for being stupid?
It seems like we can review the event from the cops view and see if there's things we could do to make this dangerous situation a little less lethal for all involved. But that what lead up to the fatality was a series of poor judgements by Breonna. Stupid acquaintances can get you killed.

Conclusion
Really, it's sort of one or the other. Either you deny all the facts in the case, or you accept that the race baiters, Democrats and their media, exploited the communities ignorance and willingness to overreact before the facts, all to get clicks, views or votes -- and they are the enemy of law an order, as are the rioters. If a white, latino or asian was killed for doing the same thing, with the same rap sheet, the only difference is those communities wouldn't have blamed it on race and burned down their own neighborhoods in protest. So it demonstrates racism... of the rioters, BLM, the DNC and the black community.
All I see is a girl winning the Darwin award for picking dumb boyfriends. She might not have deserved that, but the cops didn't deserve the negative attention they got for shooting back (nor did the cops shot in attempted assassinations for just being cops when outraged Democrats decides their lack of information justified retaliation). The property owners, and others didn't deserve the riots and violence that came out of BLM and the DNC for this accident.
