JUSTICE FOR BREONNA TAYLOR.

I see people trying to justify the officer’s actions relating to George Floyd’s murder following the recent bodycam footage. Firstly, resisting arrest is not grounds for murder. There have been many white criminals who have resisted arrest and were dealt with peacefully.

Secondly, George Floyd clearly had trauma from previous police interactions, saying that he got shot once by them. He says this in the face of a gun being directed at him in the beginning of the footage when he had not yet resisted. The gun was not put away. Later he says that he fears being shot and getting COVID (presumably in prison), neither of these fears were assuaged. Instead the police are forceful and verbally aggressive with him (swearing at him multiple times).

Thirdly, he was clearly panicking and the cops did nothing to deescalate. This is why people are saying defund the police because a mental health professional would have done much more good. Or at least train police to deal with people with mental illness or those who panic during arrests. 6 months of training is not enough.

Fourthly, Floyd said that he needed 3 seconds to catch his breath before going into the vehicle. He was not granted those 3 seconds.

Finally, he was restrained. I see people saying that the drugs in his system were a factor in him being unable to breath. Even if that was the case. ANYONE who’s neck is being KNELT ON for 8 MINUTES is going to die. 8 minutes of lack of oxygen is enough to strangle a perfectly healthy man.

Even if he was violent, which he was not, he did not deserve to die. He did not deserve to die for having drugs in his system, he did not deserve to die for using counterfeit bills, he did not deserve to die for panicking and resisting arrest. George Floyd should still be alive, the officers involved in his murder should be convicted and the police should be held accountable and defunded in favour of investing in poorer neighbourhoods, education, drug treatment programs and mental health services.

When leaders get their nine lives from starclan, they appearance got altered a bit to the uncanny valley territory

Bluestar used to have a gray-blue fur, but no she just, blue. Like blueberry blue. Her eyes is a deep indigo and her paws is a very light baby blue. her teeth and claws have a tint of blue in them.

Tallstar is very tall, from his tail to his ears. He looked more like a serval really. He can stand by his hind leg and looked all over the moor like a meerkat. He’s also very intimidating

Brokenstar looks like a frankencat. He’s markings make him looked like a patchwork and his limb moves like they were sewed to his body. His fur and whisker looked like loose strings and his teeth is very messy and not well defined.

Firestar fur moves like a burning ember, sound of crackled wood can often be heard if you near him. His fur light up even from a moonlight, making him looked ablaze.

I once saw an au that the "power of three" were from each of the clans. Heather would be one of them and have the power of coercion. She could make anyone believe what she said as long as she believed it herself. I think it's pretty cool! Also, headcannon she keeps petals of heather in her tail-tip cuz it's cute.

it's so sickening knowing while im enjoying everything here at home Palestine is being bombed all day and night. i hope no one ever stops reblogging and talking and protesting until everything is over and the Palestinians are free from the 70+ year genocide of their people

All those racist asshats trying to justify their views now that the bodycam footage of George Floyd getting arrested was leaked... shut the fuck up.

He complied - he put his hands on the wheel, then on his head.

He had a gun pointed in his face for no reason.

He was having a panic attack.

He was claustrophobic- and before you say shit about him already being in his own car: there is a massive difference between sitting in the front of your own car where you can see and control everything and can see a wide view of the space around you and know there's a lot of room, versus being pushed into the back of a police car with your arms behind your back, unable to move, unable to get a clear view of things, and with a giant wall of reinforced glass blocking you in the back. So shut the fuck up with that attempt at an argument or justification.

He asked to lie down so he could breathe. He asked to lie down so he could breathe.

The officers were not trying to calm him down. They didn't care.

No matter if he was resisting or complying with arrest, or if he was having a panic attack or if he was on drugs, none of that is a reason or justification for the officer to kneel on his neck for 8+ minutes. None of that is justification or a reason for the officers to ignore him pleading that he couldn't breathe, that he was being choked.

The entire time, he was begging for his life.

And if you're gonna say shit like "he said he couldn't breathe while he was still standing" - yeah, having a panic attack does that to you. It's not uncommon, and is actually common sense.

George Floyd was murdered on camera by police. That fact hasn't and will not ever change.
