Kansas City Activist Outcry Trending After Police Shooting Death Of Saveion McConnell

To start . . .

We remind readers that advocacy really isn't TKC's thing because we've always believed that convincing people of something is for salesmen. 

Instead, this blog has always been about documentation, perspective and a few tidbits of worthwhile discourse mixed in with a great deal of muck. 

And all of this prelude should merely provide context to state the obvious . . .

Like it or not: The police shooting death of Lee's Summit teen is now trending as activists work diligently to raise social media awareness.

The note that inspired this post . . .  

A passionate recent column by Toriano Porter is also pushing the story forward.  

And so . . .

It's not our job to argue the case but to simply let readers know that public outcry over the shooting death seems to be gaining traction.

Check-it . . .   

"The Kansas City Defender has obtained exclusive video footage of the horrific slaying of Black nineteen-year-old Saveion McConnell. The haunting footage vastly contradicts the police statements that have been disseminated to the media thus far, and it arrives two days after Johnson County Prosecuting Attorney Robert Russell announced that the deputy who killed Saveion will never see a courtroom."
