Joe Biden has called on Congress to pass the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act, moments after shocking police video was released showing an Illinois officer fatally shooting Sonya Massey after she called police fearing a home intruder.
In his first public statement since dropping his bid for re-election, Biden said the shooting of Massey, a 36-year-old Black woman, by white Sangamon county sheriff’s deputy Sean Grayson, in her home in Springfield, after a dispute over a pot of boiling water, “reminds us that all too often Black Americans face fears for their safety in ways many of the rest of us do not”.
Biden, who is recovering from Covid at his home in Delaware, said Massey, “a beloved mother, friend, daughter and young Black woman … should be alive today”.

Wow. Reporting. No need for that. If i make more sense than you there’s no need to lash out your upset at me.
Reporting what? That I’m not a racist asshole defending a cop committing murder on camera?
Jesus christ. Your behaviour is vile.
First you want to be racist by attempting to force race into it, and then this… actually. That makes sense.
