Unarmed Black Woman with Infant Causes Militarized Lockdown From [HERE] and [HERE] Washington DC was temporarily placed on police lockdown following a bizarre incident where a Black woman was said to have rammed a security barricade near the White House. After ramming the security barricade the woman who had a young child with her was pursued by several Capitol Police cruisers and brutally shot to death by the cops. The incident resulted in an immediate police lockdown of the area with a bunch of government goons roaming around the area with weapons. The white media even jumped over the story providing continuous coverage while presenting the incident as a possible terror attack. She has been identified as 34-year-old Miriam Carey of Stamford, Conn.
She was unarmed. It was not known whether she presented an immediate danger to police after she was stopped. Police gave no details concerning any threatening conduct that necessitated such brutal force. And the white media is not concernned about it. This raises serious questions about the actions of the Capitol Police not to mention the blatant media sensationalism surrounding this event.
The incident began at about 2:30 p.m. at the White House gates at 15th and E streets NW. Police say Carey had attempted to ram a temporary security barrier outside the White House with her car, then struck a Secret Service uniformed division officer. She then fled the scene, leading police on a chase.
Video shows the woman's car surrounded by officers with their guns drawn in Garfield Circle, just outside the Capitol. Carey bashes into a barricade, backs up, and then drives away. Initial reports said Carey had exited her vehicle and fired shots. However, Carey was not armed, did not fire any shots and apparently did not get out of the car. D.C. Police Chief Cathy Lanier, who is white, said Capitol Police and Secret Service fired their weapons.
As stated by BlackListed What this shows more than anything is that America has gone completely insane. This was unquestionably a convenient excuse for the government to show off a large scale militarized police presence. If a militarized police lockdown is required to counter the threat of a single unarmed woman with a baby ramming a barricade, than it is obvious these people will be totally screwed if they are faced with a real threat.
What’s really sick about this is that both phony political parties in the U.S. House of Representatives expressed their gratitude to the Capitol Police for their actions with a standing ovation. So here we see the entire legislative body cheering the Capitol Police gunning down an unarmed woman. This proves that these people are nuts. This is not something that deserves approval let alone a standing ovation. If these people had any sort of credibility they would be calling for an investigation into the Capitol Police as to why they needed to shoot an unarmed woman in this manner. Unfortunately in this so-called post 9/11 era this type of thuggish police action is par for the course and endorsed by lawmakers and other idiot goons in the federal government.
