6.5 Million Paid Out to Walter Scott Family

GOOD AFTERNOON FROM UPPER DARBY!

If I didn't post this before, I'm posting it now.

The money will not bring back Walter Scott and the overzealous joy that Nazi-Cops get from killing Us is still overly abundant. Wherever you are, whatever you are doing as a Black Person. Always remember that if you are not doing what YOU CAN to help out. No matter how big or how small, the least you can do is NOT ADD TO OUR PROBLEMS. If you are selling drugs, understand that you will be caught at some point and either killed or exploited directly by the Nazi-Cops and local Officials, White AND BLACK. Do not allow yourself to continue to be a tool and food for the Nazi-American White Power Machine. And stop deluding yourself that you are doing it to feed your kids or family. If I can drag my broken down underpaid body out this door and work, you will to. Let working from a position of inferiority be the machine that drives you to do better THROUGH LEGITIMATE MEANS. Instead of playing the role of the Token Nigger and Nigger-Traitor to be cashed in and exploited by Whites and their Black Slaves and Niggers.

If you are in an interracial relationship, make sure you have the funds stashed away to be able to bounce or bail without becoming destitute. If you are cheating on your significant other, understand that once you move on that Black Person will have to carry forward your treachery, while we are at a critical point of Black American existence.

I am not asking nor expecting any of us to move mountains. Because we are not moving a mountain. This is about basic self-discipline and commitment to rebuilding Ourselves as one branch of the Black Family Tree. We are targeted because Whites have stored most of their power within Nazi-America, like it or not. Fair or not. Which means that we have access to expertise and opportunities that other Blacks do not. We cannot continue to waste THIS FACT, on foolishness. Stop being afraid to speak to one another. Stop being afraid to be around one another. Stop being afraid to trust one another. Start off small and work your way up. Something as simple as a head nod of acknowledgment to "Good Morning." can have a far bigger impact on another Black Persons day than you can possibly realize.

For those of you out there HONESTLY REPRESENTING US, keep going and keep doing what you're doing. Do not lose hope and do not give in to despair. And THANK YOU for doing what you are doing. Here is the article AND LEARN FROM IT. Deadbeats of any kind are wrong, but being MURDERED OVER IT? Being KILLED FOR BEING A DEADBEAT PARENT? Means that there is NO CHANCE FOR REDEMPTION. NO CHANCE to do RIGHT by the children and parent forced to bear the burden alone. Value each others lives and understand that if we don't believe in OUR OWN FUTURE. It is NOT ANYONE ELSE'S RESPONSIBILITY TO DO SO EITHER;

South Carolina city to pay $6.5 million over police shooting of black man

 

October 8, 2015 9:08 PM

(Reuters) - The family of an unarmed black man shot in the back by a white police officer will get a $6.5 million settlement from North Charleston in South Carolina, city officials said on Thursday.

The man, Walter Scott, 50, was shot after fleeing a traffic stop in April. The shooting was caught on a bystander's video and reignited a national outcry over police treatment of minorities.

North Charleston Mayor R. Keith Summey said in a statement that the City Council had voted to settle all potential claims over Scott's death for $6.5 million.

"I am glad the city and the family were able to reach a settlement without the necessity of a lawsuit," he said.

The police officer, Michael Slager, faces a murder charge in Scott's death.

"It could have been a trillion dollars. It would never bring my son back. But I thank them for what they did," Scott's mother, Judy, said of the settlement.

Chris Stewart, an attorney for Scott's family, said the payout was the largest pre-lawsuit settlement in the history of South Carolina and one of the largest in the United States.

He said it would take care of Scott's four children for the rest of their lives.

The settlement comes after New York agreed to pay $5.9 million to the family of Eric Garner, whose death in 2014 after allegedly being put in a chokehold by an police officer was captured on bystander video.

Baltimore said last month it would pay $6.4 million to the family of Freddie Gray, whose death from an injury in the back of a police transport van in April sparked protests and rioting. Six officers are charged in his death.
