Trump ahead in all battleground states - ALL OF THEM!

The tragic case of Chris Kaba, a man fatally shot by police in 2022, has become a flashpoint for discussions around race, policing, and justice in the UK. However, rather than waiting for the facts to emerge, many on the political Left rushed to frame Kaba as an innocent victim, distorting the narrative to fit their own agendas. The story of Chris Kaba, a man involved in dangerous activities, is a stark reminder of how preemptive judgments can lead to public misinformation.

 

 

Soon after Kaba’s death, Labour MP Diane Abbott was one of the first to comment publicly. In a September 2022 article for *Morning Star*, a hard-left newspaper, she lamented the "terrible fate of Chris Kaba," claiming that "people can lose their lives even when going about their daily lives." Yet, as subsequent investigations revealed, Kaba wasn’t simply going about his daily routine. He was behind the wheel of an Audi believed to be linked to a recent shooting, and when police ordered him to stop, he rammed the vehicle into a police car, endangering those around him.

 

Mike Graham hits out at London Mayor Sadiq Khan for his "distasteful" sympathy for Chris Kaba, who was shot and killed by police. Isabel Oakeshott: "He was a violent, drug-dealing thug! I'd like to see that little pip-squeak of a politician try to do the job of police!"

Abbott's article went further, highlighting what she saw as media bias: “A campaign for justice for Chris Kaba has already been established and taken important public protests. Millions of viewers on Sky TV especially will have seen the recent demo, although they were initially told it was a memorial walk for the Queen. The mainstream media have an unfortunate habit of erasing inconvenient truths when they have decided what ‘the story’ is, and it is amazing how often it happens to black people.” Ironically, the facts revealed later in court suggest it was Abbott and others on the Left who decided what "the story" was before knowing the full truth.

 

Six days before he was shot dead, Chris Kaba shot a man in the leg in a Oval Space club in Hackney. He ran outside and shot him again.

This truth became clearer after a three-week trial at the Old Bailey, where the police officer who shot Kaba was acquitted of murder. Despite this, figures on the Left continued to champion Kaba as a victim. The Runnymede Trust, a charity focused on racial justice, tweeted “#JusticeForChrisKaba” and denounced what it called “racist state violence.” Similarly, several Labour MPs voiced concerns about the supposed damage to “our communities” and the need to restore their “confidence” in the police, implying that the fault lay with law enforcement rather than with Kaba’s actions.

 

Even more surprising were comments from the Women’s Equality Party, which said, “We are holding Chris Kaba’s family and friends in our hearts today. It is both terrifying and outrageous to hear politicians say the police should be scrutinised less after they kill unarmed members of the public. No justice, no peace.” Yet, this statement was flawed on multiple fronts. Firstly, Kaba was not “unarmed”—by using his car as a weapon to ram other vehicles, he was endangering lives. Secondly, the party’s selective outrage ignored Kaba’s history, including a domestic violence protection order issued against him in April 2022, which banned him from contacting the mother of his unborn child or entering her street.

 

The real question is how so many on the Left managed to construct a narrative of Kaba as an “aspiring architect” and “father-to-be” without considering the broader context of his life and actions. They seemed determined to turn him into a martyr, a British equivalent of George Floyd, without pausing to reflect on who he truly was. It appears that in their haste to signal virtue and draw parallels with other tragic cases, many chose to ignore inconvenient truths about Kaba’s dangerous behavior. In doing so, they risk undermining the credibility of the very causes they seek to champion.

Same way as they constructed a man with no brain can be president for the last 4 years

It was hilarious watching James O'Brien listen to Kaba's long list of violent crimes after the verdict. He was so gutted he didn't get his George Floyd moment. I bet he had his rant pre-prepared.

 

The left as always looking for racism where none exists.

 

It's ridiculous that charges were even brought. 

 

One less thug on the streets of London.

Khan, Abbott, the BBC and Sky, and many others, owe apologies all round, especially to the officer accused of murder who is now the target of gangsters for the rest of his life. Utterly disgraceful.

[Homburg]

All of those who tried to present Mr Kaba as both a wonderful member of society and an innocent victim should be ashamed of themselves, but of course they won't be.  Nevertheless they should all publicly denounce Mr Kaba for what he was. If they fail to do that then they are not helping black people.  Parents need better role models for their children than Mr Kaba and his ilk.

Similar to Daniel penny case on NY subway.  Daniel Penny trial: Jury selection begins in NYC deadly subway chokehold case in death of Jordan Neely - ABC7 New York (abc7ny.com)

Quote:

"NEW YORK (WABC) -- Jury selection began Monday in the manslaughter trial of Daniel Penny, a Marine veteran who put a man acting erratically in a New York City subway car into a fatal chokehold.

Penny pleaded not guilty to second-degree manslaughter and criminally negligent homicide.

Witnesses say the man, Jordan Neely, had been shouting and demanding money when Penny approached him on May 1, 2023.

That's when Penny moved to restrain him, pinned the man to the floor of an NYC train with the help of two other passengers, and placed him in a chokehold until his body went limp.

The medical examiner's office ruled his death a homicide. Penny's lawyers argue that the Long Island native didn't intend to kill Neely but rather sought to hold him down long enough for police to arrive.

The case has fueled political narratives and perceptions about urban crime and captivated a city where the subway is indispensable.

The judge has said it could take two weeks to seat a jury that will be asked to reconcile when it is appropriate for a citizen to kill another citizen."

Indeed, Abbott was bemoaning the fact this could happen while Kaba was "going about his daily life".

 

What she failed to mention was that his daily life was shooting and stabbing people while high on cocaine. Has anyone every been on the wrong side of a situation more than Dianne Abbott?

 

You think she'd know, given the crimes of her own son, beating up police and hospital workers.

It saddens me that people make judgements on limited information. He lost his life, his family lost a son, his child lost their father, yes. But he was a  known evil little scrote.

Those closest to him knew that including the soon to be mother of his child. Does that mean he should have had his life taken? Was there a more expedient way of removing this threat? Trying get away from a vehicle stop using his vehicle as a weapon. The vehicle being stopped was suspected of being involved in a shooting. Would unarmed officers have wanted to try to stop it when this was known? 

Those who knew nothing about him decided he was God's gift and his life was unjustifiable cut short. Or perhaps they did know and chose to ignore it. Who knows? 

For me, I know not, I care not. Another evil little toerag is off the street and the copper is reportedly subject to a bounty of 10 grand. Mind you in this day and age, a mere pittance...

Shame she doesn't have the same energy when 2 actual law abiding citizens from the "black community" are killed.

Unfortunately for these people from the "black community" they were not killed by a white policeman, but instead by fellow black people so these black lives do not matter to her and nothing whatsoever needs to be done to prevent similar deaths occurring in future.   Sadly for Ms Abbot the agonising wait for the UK's George Floyd moment continues.

Ah yes, the "largely peaceful" celebration of diversity (apart from the fatal stabbings).

 

https://www.theguardian.com/culture/article/2024/aug/26/police-notting-hill-carnival-violence-stabbings

 

They only come out of the woodwork to complain about black people being killed when the alleged perp is white. Then they try to paint the gun toting, stab happy "victim" as mother Theresa. 

 

It's race baiting, nothing more.
