(18,124 posts)it was a lynching of a young, vital black woman who was only where she was because her future and maybe her lifelong career was there. These racist bastards took that from her and are walking free today. This murder, along with many, in every part of this country has destroyed my faith in people doing the right thing or even having the political will(the majority) and social power and will(the majority) to do the same. It is plain as day, racism would be a thing of the past IF the majority of decent, law abiding WHITE citizens(the majority) stood up and said NO MORE!!!!!!
Just the truth

(18,124 posts)almost every murder of innocent unarmed POC is met with some kind of explanation, of which are many and varied, here that has been used to free all these murderers to do this again. Okay on yours.....I just don't believe that this woman took her own life. Think what you please, you have to live with your rationale, not me.

Also, a casual google search shows that the family had their own autopsy done after the first one showed no sign of a struggle or signs of foul play but they never released the results of their personal autopsy.
Any thoughts?

rendered unconscious somehow, hence no struggle? Look you can explain away and intimate that since the family didn't release any autopsy result Ms. Bland took her own life yet just like the last two years, no one, except the most blatant murderer in blue has been indicted. Believe what you must, apologize for who you must, I know in my heart, in knowing the racist heart of America, Sandra Bland was murdered by violent, hateful racists fearful of any POC that speaks up in their own defense tocontradict the perceived power and control of white racists that arrested her for nothing. This time it was an 'improper lane change'.
America, just like those young people, black and white, walking around the streets today, your underwear is showing and they are soiled. America's heart is dark. Always has been when it comes to white supremacy and POC. Disgusting and filthy people who murder wantonly and 99% of the time walk free. Now that they have their true fuhrer, donald trump to lead them, good luck Amerikkka. Sandra Bland was murdered.

(2,474 posts)The police have released motion cameras video for the time preceding her death...
An autopsy that shows no sign of foul play and an unreleased autopsy done by the family... Why wouldn't they release it if it showed anything different?
A documented history of self harm and suicide attempts...
A prisoner from an adjoining cell who told the media that Bland seemed "sort of distraught," was very emotional, and was crying frequently. Pyle, who spoke to Bland through a tiny chute, said Bland was upset that her friend had not come to bail her out. Pyle stated that she never heard any loud noise or commotion that would indicate foul play in Bland's death
Right now, it sound like you think she was murdered despite the evidence and not because of it.

(18,124 posts)generations of racist white people killing black people for demanding to be treated equal. You can believe what you please about the murder of Ms. Bland. White people are pretty slick in getting the victim looking like the perpetrator. I have no more time for your type of diminishing comments. Your proof is what you need, have had it.

(2,474 posts)She was black, therefore she must have been murdered by whites....
Setting aside all physical evidence to the contrary....
That about wrap it up?
heaven05
(18,124 posts)in real time, yes. Hey I'm not faulting you for where you are at this current time in history. Many are in the same place. May your rose colored world never be shattered.
TipTok
(2,474 posts)... you'll be honest about your preference for feelings over evidence.

(65,616 posts)I refuse to believe it was a suicide, she had everything going for her. I remember reading she is not the first person to be found mysteriously hanging in a jail cell at that particular holding facility.
