Protests erupt in Washington following fatal moped crash
12 officers have been injured after the second consecutive night of violent demonstrations in front of a Washington D.C. police station.
Protests broke out on Wednesday night after a vigil for 20-year-old Karon Hylton Brown, who died while trying to evade the police. Demonstrators at the protest threw rocks, bricks and fireworks at officers. They have blamed police for the death of Hylton-Brown.
Authorities initially tried to stop the 20-year-old for not wearing a helmet while riding a moped-scooter, when he fled and collided with another vehicle.
“They need to check their officers,†stated Charles Brown, Hylton-Brown’s father. “When they’re doing something that’s messed up out here, they ain’t gotta do it on the streets so we can see it, but when they get back to the precinct right here they need to tell them…. ‘hey look, that was messed up what you did out there.’â€
The mayor has thrown the police under the bus, because, apparently, police are not supposed to follow when someone is attempting to evade the police on the roads. Or, you know, people could just take the traffic stop like a responsible citizen. They might have only warned Karon for ….. violating the rules of the road and not wearing a helmet, a measure designed to protect the rider for serious harm.

Now, that link in the excerpt goes to a CNN article (bear with me)
Hylton was driving a Revel scooter on the sidewalk without a helmet on Friday, prompting police officers to turn on their emergency lights and attempt to make a traffic stop, according to a news release from the Metropolitan Police Department. As Hylton exited an alley, his moped crashed into another vehicle, the department said.
So, he was illegally on the sidewalk without a helmet, both illegal, and the cops simply turned on their lights to make a routine traffic stop. Hylton took off down an alley, apparently without the police in hot pursuit (it’s a moped, people), and crashed because of what would be consider felony evasion. If there was more to blame the cops, CNN would be offering it, right?
Why is it always Biden voters who get all sorts of violent?
DC police are prohibited by policy from pursuing vehicles for traffic violations. It is unclear why they were pursuing Mr Hylton-Brown, although the official statement was for not wearing a helmet.
Somehow, one of the officers knew the first name of Mr Hylton-Brown. Could it have been a personal thing?
Why is it always trump voters who excuse the police, regardless?

Could it have been because this clown had a rap sheet as long as your arm?

We just wait for the facts to come in.
Facts which, dare I say, almost always vindicate the cops.
Apparently, if you’re of a certain racial demographic, you don’t get killed by police very often.
Apparently, it’s the certain racial demographic that obeys the law.
DC police are prohibited by policy from pursuing vehicles for traffic violations.
Correct.
However, “pursuit” is defined as traveling at a high rate of speed over the speed limit. The area in which Hyton-Brown was riding has a 25 mph speed limit.
The Revel scooter upon which Hyton-Brown was riding has a max speed limit out of the box and in perfect working order of 30 mph.
This was not a “pursuit” any more than any attempted pull over of a car doing slightly over the speed limit is a “pursuit.”
Would any sane person say that a cop pulling a person over for doing 30 in a 25 was breaking policy for engaging in a “pursuit?”
It is unclear why they were pursuing Mr Hylton-Brown, although the official statement was for not wearing a helmet.
You missed the part where Hyton-Brown was riding on the sidewalk as well.
Even taking the police out of the equation, Hyton-Brown was putting people at risk by his actions. The area is mostly populated by minorities, so why are people defending a person who was putting other minorities at risk?
The Revel scooter when rented comes with instructions that say the scooter is only meant for traveling on the streets and that a helmet must be worn. The Revel company has a box attached to the rental docking station that contains two helmets.
We get it. The left hates the police and hates there being consequences for people’s illegal and reckless actions.
The left hates personnel responsibility.
After all, all the left has is hate.
The distinguished Mr Dowd asked:
The euphemism is that he was “known to the police.”
While the local sheriff knows me personally, it’s because we are friendly. When you are talking about big metropolitan police departments, people become “known to the police” because they are bad guys or thugs or wannabe thugs. Kind of like Walter Wallace in foul, fetid, fuming, foggy, filthy Philadelphia, who was well enough known to the police because he had been arrested frequently enough to have 13 separate mug shots . . . and he was only 27 years old.
Mr Wallace’s ninth child was just born, so, sadly, he spawned nine separate (probable) welfare recipients before he went to his eternal reward.
In the City of Brotherly Love, the brothers love each other so much that they’ve left 411 bodies on the streets, the vast majority of whom are black males and the vast majority of whom were not shot by the police.
From January 1, 2015 through October 28th of this year, 75.61% of shooting victims, and 78.02% of fatal shooting victims, in Philly have been black males. An additional 6.37% of the shooting victims, and 5.09% of the fatalities, were of black females, when the city’s population is only 41.5% black. Perhaps, just perhaps, that “certain racial demographic” which does not get shot by the police very often isn’t committing very much of the crime that attracts the attention of the police?
So far in 2020, there have been nine, just nine, “officer-involved” shootings in Philadelphia. How did all of those other bodies get laid out on the streets?
“Apparently, if you’re of a certain racial demographic, you don’t get killed by police very often.”
That’s true. Asian Americans are rarely shot by police. I’ll give you time to figure out why.
I have never been shot by police or been chased by them. I’m just lucky, I guess.
“Apparently, if you’re of a certain racial demographic, you don’t get killed by police very often.â€
That’s correct. Whites were killed ate a rate of 2:1 over blacks, 287 vs 142 (so far in 2020)
there were 96 Hispanics killed,17 Other ( assume Asians) and 179 “unknown”. That means more unknown were killed so far by police than blacks.
So Elwood, purveyor, of lies even Unknowns” are killed by police at a higher rate than all those criminal savages you constantly defend.
Maybe, just maybe blacks have been trained to act like that after years of Democrat oppression and viscous treatment. Maybe if YOU didn’t herd them into ghettos to harvest their votes they would ac\t better. Ya think?
Trump 2020 33% growth last quarter. All while the Biden crime family bargained with Red China, Iran, Ukraine and Russia. Criminal traitors.
This one is going to make some people nuts… the stacked the deck leftist media… here you go:
Fact checked!
*YES, THE GOVERNOR OF MICHIGAN USED TO WORK FOR GEORGE SOROS.

THIS IS WHAT YOU CALL A “STACKED DECK”.
IF YOU HAD A HUNCH THE NEWS SYSTEM WAS SOMEWHAT RIGGED AND YOU COULDN’T PUT YOUR FINGER ON IT, THIS MIGHT HELP YOU SOLVE THE PUZZLE.
This is why the lefty media is not reporting on Biden’s shady dealings because the house of cards might fall
VIDEOS – Black support for President Trump is surging!

Maybe the police were trying to protect and serve Mr. Brown because they genuinely cared about him, saw him acting in a way that would lead to certain death or severe injury and wanted to save him from that. In the democratic party controlled media and world view, there is no room for a competing narrative. Who among you, seeing a brother or friend in imminent danger, would not try to save his life by going after him? Democrats, that’s who.
Currently Trump enjoys the support of 24 percent of those living in Philly. In 2016 he got 15 percent of that support. This reinforces the apparent fact that trump is getting at least 15-17 percent of the Black vote and as a result if this is even remotely true then PA is gone for Biden.
Media bias? Our esteemed host noted
riotsMostly Peaceful Protestsâ„¢ in Washington, DC, after 20-year-old Karon Hylton-Brown went to his eternal reward by crashing his moped fleeing from police over riding a moped on the sidewalk, without a helmet. One America News Network covered it, but, strangely enough, The Washington Post had nothing about it on the main page of their website. I did find an article on it, buried, but I had to do a site search for it.So, why would the Post bury this story?
“Ninth child was born..†Do these clowns know of birth control? So these 9 children will grow up without a father (the government will be their father) and no doubt all 9 or most of them will then grow up in poverty (not that he would have been around even if alive). And all these numbers will be crunched by some department and the results will be used by some liberal to complain of “income inequalityâ€. If only there were some reason why…..
I’m certain that it would be wrong of me to ask to how many different women these nine children were born?
