Well, yeah, I don't much care about how high he was etc. I think her point is that black people are elevating the wrong people to represent their cause. They make rap 'artists' their role models, along with Floyd and Rodney King etc. , but especially the fact that they denigrate blacks who succeed. Charlatans like Jackson and Sharpton are listened to, and even revered, but people like Rice, and Carson, and Owens, and many others, are not. Why always claim victimhood? Why not inspire instead?
If you're convinced to make "your" idiots into icons, and "your" successes into apostates, well - you've been successfully tricked into staying on the plantation.
To be fair, considering that the county coroner's report notes fentanyl use and opiates lower your respiratory rate, how high he was might actually be a relevant issue. I'm not going to go so far as to say it justifies the cop keeping his knee on the guy's neck even after he passed out, but I'm not going to completely discount it either.
Candace Owens solid video today too.
(Some errors, but ... convincing on the points that need convincing.)
That Candace video was FUCKING FIRE!!!!!
What errors?
Errors probably a bad word. There's enough sketchy "details of the actual event" that she states things more concretely than I would.
Which detracts not at all from the part that's ket: The discussion of the reaction to the event.

And I agree with everything in there.
