I don't know how to tell you this, but there is a new video that provides CONTEXT to the Jordan Neely's subway death. I know, right? Democrats and the media (but I repeat myself) tend to wait for facts to come in before trying to start a race war. They NEVER take an already volatile situation and douse it with gasoline. But this ONE time, they did.

The story we were given, based on one video, is that a white Marine murdered a black unhoused Michael Jackson impersonator and was released after being questioned by the police. Details like his 40+ priors or him telling subway passengers he was ready to die? Didn't matter. The narrative was cast.

And now it's been busted.

We see that after subduing Neely, the Marine put him in what's called the "recovery position." It's done to open the airways and help the person regain consciousness. You can also see Neely still moving after being put in the recovery position. Now, if those two things don't lead you to believe that this wasn't a cold-blooded racist murder, maybe this third point will.

THE OTHER PASSENGERS THANKED THE MARINE FOR SUBDUING NEELY.

That would lead a rational person to believe Neely wasn't performing "Billie Jean" as much as he was making the subway car feel unsafe. You know, what with the way he was screaming "I'm not afraid to die" and New York City being New York City.

What happened BEFORE Neely was put in the chokehold, as of now, is unclear. That would provide additional context. Though not do anything to convince protestors who have already been given their marching orders. Maybe social media influencers like Rep. AOC will tweet they were wrong and apologize.
