Race relations arsonists like Ben Crump should be ostracized

Published Updated



We are now over a decade past the beginning of the Black Lives Matter movement, and six years past its height in the summer of 2020. With the damage that movement has done to race relations, it is clear that race relations arsonists should be expelled from polite society, starting with Ben Crump.

The shooting of Corey Ruiz in Madison, Wisconsin, appears to be fairly straightforward. Video of the incident taken by bystanders shows Ruiz fighting four police officers who are trying to restrain him. The video shows officers loudly noting that Ruiz has a knife. One officer attempts to tase Ruiz, but the taser fails (as they often do), and another officer then fires multiple shots. You can see a police officer take the knife off of Ruiz’s body at the end of the video.
