Yes we do my father killed my mother and i was just a year old ive forgiven him and i did that because i dont want to live the rest of my life hating myself or them and that guve me closure that even tho hes in prison for the rest of eternity its going to be ok
Jai T IF and ONLY they express sincere remorse YES. But they ALWAYS deserve forgiveness, not for themselves but from the victims family ONLY and if you wanna move on without pain and live a happy life. It’s part of the grieving process and for your mental health.
Toxic Grunt I know plenty of black folks that committed crimes were remorseful and still got hit with the full weight of the law. The Central Park 5 didn’t get a hug or Bible and they probably needed it the most foh
prison reform with a white girl who killed a brother, all these people of color serving time for petty crimes, this judge is the problem fighting for our oppressor instead of fighting for the oppressed, she is a real class sellout
There should be a petition for her to be fired for showing impartiality towards Amber and not towards Joshua. This thing doesn't deserve to serve as a judge.
My question to the judge would be if Botham would have walked in amber’s apt and killed her and lost at trial would she have given him a hug and a 10 year sentence .
Karma......I wonder if she would feel the same if her son or daughter were killed by accident by a cop! I would not want anyone to know that I was related to this person.
@Toxic Grunt If you can refer me to one case in America's history where a white judge hugged a black guy convicted murderer then you will virtually shut down all arguments. I'll wait....
But ur not a judge so u don’t know wat and wat not she could do so stay in your lane and speak about facts or don’t speak at all, sorry our black judges aren’t heartless

I get it! The problem is Black people make mistakes and A LOT of black people were never even involved in the crimes they are convicted for! They are convicted and they don't get hugs...they get the harshest sentence possible. I guess the solution is to not withhold good but make it available to all... but boy that sure is hard. The main issue to keep in the forefront is with her history, we don't know if this is manipulation or sincerity...she was still lying throughout the trial!
I have never seen a defendant so pampered and coddled in my life. Her actions were totally inappropriate and she should be removed from the bench. Her rationalization is bull$hit!!
If she had been male....there would have been NO hugs that day. And he would have gotten a harsher sentencing. Enjoy that privilege, ladies. Treated as precious wittle victims even when you murder someone because you were "too drunk, tired, and distracted by sexual texts" from another woman's HUSBAND you were cheating with.

Wait....did she just say at the end “and Botham Jean’s death wouldn’t be in vain”. Ummm...lady his death is already in vain. He literally was an innocent unarmed man who was gunned down in his OWN apartment. There was no reason for that! There’s no way meaning can be made of that for some better good. Amber Guygor is a snake and is NOT a victim at all!

He gets SHOT AND KILLED in his own home by a POLICE OFFICER. This is not okay. It needs to be fixed. 5 years won’t do it. I’m not here to start an argument or be rude to you, I just want you to understand how infuriating it is to see people brushing this off like this isn’t proof that something is wrong with our justice system. Screw the Judge hugging her, that isn’t the problem. What we are going to do to prevent these Amber Guyger’s is the problem. “Forgetting your kid in a hot car” is nowhere near walking up an EXTRA flight of stairs, going to the wrong door, still putting the key in the wrong door (That wouldn’t turn), realizing it’s open, pushing the door open, seeing that nothing in this house resembles her own, and then gunning down a man in his own home. IT’s disgusting how you think this was a common accident and should be excused. At least that’s how you are wording it.
"Please forgive yourself?" Looks like this judge is absolutely clueless about how Christianity works. No, Judge Kemp, you plead to God for forgiveness, after you repent. You have to repent, meaning to be truly remorseful. Amber Guyger is not remorseful for her actions.
Her arrogance is why she’s in this predicament. It was arrogant to step down and hug anyone, and even more arrogant when her peers corrected her and she won’t humble herself to accept she was out of place.

@@HEAVYCHEVY409 First, there is a difference between being a racist and saying a racist thing. The messages I have seen do not prove that she believe that one race is better than another race. Second, I do not understand these message fully, since I do not know the context, so I can not judge if the convey one race is better then another race.
Guaranteed to never had half that sympathy for any poc who went in front her. She is a disgrace, needs to be removed from the bench & every single case involving a poc needs to be removed she is pathetic
@@markleng67 very believable Mark..unfortunately given the track record of your people..thats impossible to fathom. Your history is replete of your people springing up black boys and girls in trees or burning them for as much looking in your direction or eye contact and going to have a picnic right afterwards. Even as we speak now, your people wont even think twice calling the cops if they so much as see a black person walk past your neighborhood. It's all nice and dandy if its a black person doing the forgiveness because its expected of them...
black people, please stop forgiving these white people. when you do that you are letting whites know racism is ok because blacks dont take it seriously
The both of you (brother and judge) played yourself. Blacks or so called “African Americans” need to stop hugging and forgiving injustice. The killing of a man does not warrant a hug 🤷🏾♂️. The judge claim that this demon asked for a hug seems like a setup for optics. When amber guyger ask for an appeal are you still going to still feel enriched by giving that hug. In 2020 Blacks need to get back to understanding of we are better off separate and apart. Civil rights killed us a culture of people. I would not hug or forgive. An eye for an eye would be my thought process. In my opinion, forgiveness of murder should given by GOD not by me. Amber was given 10 years she might do 3-5 they will have her in protective custody then she will get released. That is if she does not win an appeal. The great thing is the universe has a way of delivering karma. Forgiveness cannot stop karma.
Will she hug all of the convicted criminal who pass through her court now? This id why wonen should not be judges. They can't seomperate their emotions from their duty. That hug was totaly inappropiate. It sent the wrong message to the public. She should be disbarred.
How is this controversial? It was a beautiful moment amid truly ugly circumstances. This is why we can’t have nice things. Someone always has to crap all over it, almost as if they’re obligated to be contrarian and spout off on SM with their negative little thoughts.
You're most likely white and wouldn't understand. Why don't you ask yourself when was the last time a white judge hugged a black defendant convicted of murder?!?
You are comparing apples and oranges. Both cases should be as similar as can be, so a black cop who got in to another's apartment and there killed a white male.
We are a sad species when we don't even understand compassion for humanity. Wickedness has consumed us. You want mercy but you don't want anyone else to have any. The love of many has grown cold.
Except this is a murderer who is being hugged by a judge and told to turn to religion in a place where religion does not belong. It should have happened behind closed doors.
I still disagree with her choice to hug Amber, no matter how many times I have gone back to watch Judge Tammy's interviews, this particular act, I cannot, and will not agree with the choice she made, for many reasons. No disrespect to Judge Tammy, but I wish she would have declined Amber's request for a hug.
She's a confederate sympathizer. She'd side with Robert E Lee 'nem. She's showing you exactly who she is. How many black n brown convicts did she give hugs and free Bibles? All skinfolk ain't kinfolk. She holds this position for this very reason.
It is one thing to hug someone that is very remorseful who may have just been convicted and sentenced to serve prison time for say involuntary manslaughter (maybe they caused someone's death by texting and driving), but it is another to hug and give your very own Bible to someone who entered an innocent person's home and took their life (murder). Even if she thought it was her home she did not even give this man a chance to surrender. Someone should show Judge Kemp how that feels and then ask her for a hug.
Only reason she hugged her was because she’s a cop this judge helped add to the divisiveness between our communities and cops and stop using it’s what Botham would’ve wanted as an excuse he would’ve wanted to not be shot !!!!!
I bet your eyes just lit up when the wheels in your head started turning up there on the stand after the brother gave a hug how you could also be try to be perceived as hero and make a name for yourself at the same time. I think you maybe thought the media would instantly try to make you a star and most people would side with you and drown out the negative. But you completely missread the room and it all the American people very wrong. Virtue signaling over the body of this young man, I will choose to believe you are simply ignorant and not purposeful in all this.
Commenters on here are too judgmental. This is an isolated incident where the victim's family who would feel better (and move on with their lives) if they were to forgive. And the perpetrator is (apparently) remorseful. The sentence was already made when she asked for the hug from the judge. She will still have to serve 10 years in prison. No... it's not gonna start a trend where all defendants will get hugs from judges.
Botham’s mother testified that she was concerned about Botham’s lil brother....What if Botham’s brother was tricking you? What if he pretended to want to hug her but really had something sinister planned? What if he had weapon and stabbed Amber in the neck or attacked her? Would this judge have assumed the liability because she allowed him to hug the convicted murder?
Don't people go through metal detectors prior to entering a courthouse? I don't see how there would be much risk of anything happening aside from the peanut gallery commenting.
Humans put stipulations on the instruction: "Love your enemies, Bless them that curse you, Do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you." Did God really mean that or was it a mistake? Judge Tammy Kemp, thank you for obeying God. Many may ridicule you, but you are endowed with the power from heaven to endure. Stand!
@Love You sound like a child who still feeds on the milk of the word as Jesus said. Grow up and start feeding on the meat of the word and stop being a nominal Christian who lack understanding
Can someone tell me why this moment was wrong? I see unconditional love for fellow humans, I see love and maybe even forgiveness. A lot of people don't understand empathy because they lack empathy, so my words will confuse and maybe even anger those people, and for that I am sorry.
@Mike Nunyabiznesson the contrary, you and your fellow like minded commenters are the only ones observably crying. Might want to use a less ironic insult, friend.
@Mike Nunyabizness are we talking colloquialisms or are you making a comment about my capitalisation? Maybe a statement about an over-used phrase? Petty and sad to say the least.
@Mike Nunyabizness extremely petty, perfect grammar is not needed to understand what I said. We're also not in a professional environment, so you're just being obnoxiously stuck up as a desperate attempt to find any criticism that'll land. Keep wasting time nitpicking people's capitalisation though, I'm sure it's real thrilling
Notice The Judge Stated That She Hesitated The First Time Amber Asked Her For A Hug... ALWAYS Go Off Of Your First Instinct...It's Not What You Do, It's How You Do It....!
I hope she's sanctioned or receives some sort of disciplinary action. The hug was TOO far! As a judge, she knows better than anyone else in that courtroom how her actions would be viewed. This was a murder trial. Sorry, she can't explain her actions away. There is no 'good reason' for her to hug a defendant in a murder trial. She was out of line...period! I wonder how many BLACK defendants she comes off the bench to hug. She is a fraud!
People who don't know the whole story should not talk. She should not have been convicted of murder. Mansloder yes murder no. There was no premeditation here this whole thing is a joke,
The very fact that he was murdered was in vain - You don't console the murder who caused it. So how many young black men who have been sent to prison for twice as many years for less of a crime, and their lives are ruined has Tammy Kemp hugged and consoled after their sentencing - I bet none. She is biased against her own people - Remove her from the bench.
Good for the judge for doing what is in her heart and soul... admiring her courage from a distance People need to take a stand for they think is right.
Her courage you call this courage I would hate for you to see real courage because you will probably wouldn't recognize it as real courage you act like this women was Victorious and she was not
Its funny as a judge having other black defendants in front of her.. it has been noted she never had this couraged before or have the same compassion when she was a prosecutor..locking black defendants up. No her act was completely wrong in this situation. She is a judge and the judge is supposed to be impartial.. no matter what her opinion or feelings or religion is. She has shown that she can be impartial when it comes to Black defendants... she should have done it with this one. Bottom line!
Someone died and we keep brushing this off like it’s gonna eventually go away. It won’t, and the whole justice system will soon be in on trying to get all the Amber Guyger’s less time for MURDER. People get life, people get no parole. But she will be out in 5 YEARS?! Are you kidding me? How can you think this is okay?

Sorry for taking up your time, though this comment stood out to me more than the others.
Glitch Animations you’re assuming stances that I do not have. Ignorance is real and common. We all are mostly ignorant. No one can be anything but mostly ignorant. No one knows everything, nor do they know most things. Yet most of us assume that we have all the information that we need to make judgments on things we do not fully understand. I wasn’t at that trial. I did not experience it in its entirety. I had not learned law to fully understand what murder means. I had not studied what is typical sentencing for a murder such as this. Be humble. Know that we shouldn’t stand by while injustice breathes, but know that you are limited to knowledge and understanding. I embrace questioning judgments. I shake my head at silliness, typical to that of children, as coming to conclusions with limited understanding....because that will not help. Children don’t win wars.
So why was this moment hated. I don’t see anything negative about this . I’m so confused about the evaluation of mankind it’s like we’re all moving backwards. Oh no she hugged her and gave her a bible. Really
The brother I get, he decided to forgive Amber for the killing of his brother. The victims family have that right to choice how they want to move on with their life. For a judge your the middle man and is there to keep the piece and fairness. By hugging someone for killing someone you decided to take a side regardless. No less then a former Police officer who probably was in her courtroom before as an officer. And the Judge has the nerve to say is Sad... All while the justice system has put incident people in prison and some cannot defend themselves properly. We the public have the right to feel how we want to feel and not impose on the families wishes. A judge should cross a line and by doing this sends a message too all cops that Judges might go easy on them. The sad part here is that a lot of us don't trust the Justice System and the Judge didn't care for the people that feel this way. The Judge set back the trust. And if she feels Sad the public feels this way then people will look at this and say the system doesn't care for us.
But as a judge she's supposed to be impartial...so it's not her place to do either one..... Especially in the courtroom.. in front of a camera when millions are looking.... Very inappropriate and wrong she want to show that much compassion become a pastor.
What his brother wanted ??? His brother wanted nothing to do with Amber and that enraged her and she killed him point blank range....this is unbelievable
So all murders deserve hugs and forgiveness??

Wrong. I have not heard of any evidence that she is a racist.
Alex, who said she was a racist? Maybe an uncle tom but I didn't say she was racist! smh
@@HEAVYCHEVY409 "But for this cop's who has proven to b a racist..." could you give a little more info on what you mean?
@@akruijff oh just google the cops name and put racist behind it and you can see her racist text messages
@@HEAVYCHEVY409 First, there is a difference between being a racist and saying a racist thing. The messages I have seen do not prove that she believe that one race is better than another race. Second, I do not understand these message fully, since I do not know the context, so I can not judge if the convey one race is better then another race.
Guaranteed to never had half that sympathy for any poc who went in front her. She is a disgrace, needs to be removed from the bench & every single case involving a poc needs to be removed she is pathetic
She is a coward
The lady said she didn't know where to get a bible. . . Okay they are kind of everywhere but whatever
De George there are bibles in prison
Sell out Mammy!
This judge is a fine human being.
You are white..so will co-sign anything that shows black weakness...this judge displayed weakness...an unparalleled weakness...
@@patmtc477 I'm a HUMAN BEING so I can recognise what she demonstrated. it's strength, not weakness.
@@markleng67 would you have said the same if she hugged a black murderer who has been convicted of killing a white person?..imagine the outrage..
@@patmtc477 Yes I would. Without hesitation.
@@markleng67 very believable Mark..unfortunately given the track record of your people..thats impossible to fathom. Your history is replete of your people springing up black boys and girls in trees or burning them for as much looking in your direction or eye contact and going to have a picnic right afterwards. Even as we speak now, your people wont even think twice calling the cops if they so much as see a black person walk past your neighborhood. It's all nice and dandy if its a black person doing the forgiveness because its expected of them...
This case was is a perfect example of injustice
I BETTER SEE HER HUG EVERY SINGLE PERSON THAT IS CONVICTED OF MURDER IN HER COURT
black people, please stop forgiving these white people. when you do that you are letting whites know racism is ok because blacks dont take it seriously
The both of you (brother and judge) played yourself. Blacks or so called “African Americans” need to stop hugging and forgiving injustice. The killing of a man does not warrant a hug 🤷🏾♂️. The judge claim that this demon asked for a hug seems like a setup for optics. When amber guyger ask for an appeal are you still going to still feel enriched by giving that hug. In 2020 Blacks need to get back to understanding of we are better off separate and apart. Civil rights killed us a culture of people. I would not hug or forgive. An eye for an eye would be my thought process. In my opinion, forgiveness of murder should given by GOD not by me. Amber was given 10 years she might do 3-5 they will have her in protective custody then she will get released. That is if she does not win an appeal. The great thing is the universe has a way of delivering karma. Forgiveness cannot stop karma.
Just wrong on all levels 🤦🏾♂️
Will she hug all of the convicted criminal who pass through her court now? This id why wonen should not be judges. They can't seomperate their emotions from their duty. That hug was totaly inappropiate. It sent the wrong message to the public.
She should be disbarred.
Lawney Malbrough huh?? Who raised you
@@banchiilifeprobably not a woman
This judge is a disgrace!!!!
wonderful compassionate little brother and judge.
How is this controversial? It was a beautiful moment amid truly ugly circumstances. This is why we can’t have nice things. Someone always has to crap all over it, almost as if they’re obligated to be contrarian and spout off on SM with their negative little thoughts.
Ty!! Agreed!
You're most likely white and wouldn't understand. Why don't you ask yourself when was the last time a white judge hugged a black defendant convicted of murder?!?
Then by all means give a high five to the person who kills your family member and let them out to do it again and again!
Judge you were wrong ! I challenge you to find a black man being convicted of murder and being hugged by the white family !!!!
You are comparing apples and oranges. Both cases should be as similar as can be, so a black cop who got in to another's apartment and there killed a white male.
No you were not fair!
We are a sad species when we don't even understand compassion for humanity.
Wickedness has consumed us.
You want mercy but you don't want anyone else to have any.
The love of many has grown cold.
mexton what are you talking about were are you when these thing happen to black people I know right you have nothing to say
It’s the court room not a church that was unprofessional on her part
Except this is a murderer who is being hugged by a judge and told to turn to religion in a place where religion does not belong. It should have happened behind closed doors.
I still disagree with her choice to hug Amber, no matter how many times I have gone back to watch Judge Tammy's interviews, this particular act, I cannot, and will not agree with the choice she made, for many reasons. No disrespect to Judge Tammy, but I wish she would have declined Amber's request for a hug.
She's a confederate sympathizer. She'd side with Robert E Lee 'nem. She's showing you exactly who she is. How many black n brown convicts did she give hugs and free Bibles? All skinfolk ain't kinfolk. She holds this position for this very reason.
She deserves no respect.
The judge should be ashamed of herself. I never seen a convicted murderer get so much special treatment
It is one thing to hug someone that is very remorseful who may have just been convicted and sentenced to serve prison time for say involuntary manslaughter (maybe they caused someone's death by texting and driving), but it is another to hug and give your very own Bible to someone who entered an innocent person's home and took their life (murder). Even if she thought it was her home she did not even give this man a chance to surrender. Someone should show Judge Kemp how that feels and then ask her for a hug.
Only reason she hugged her was because she’s a cop this judge helped add to the divisiveness between our communities and cops and stop using it’s what Botham would’ve wanted as an excuse he would’ve wanted to not be shot !!!!!
I bet if the roles was reverse she not hugging no one black I hope she not still a judge
I bet your eyes just lit up when the wheels in your head started turning up there on the stand after the brother gave a hug how you could also be try to be perceived as hero and make a name for yourself at the same time. I think you maybe thought the media would instantly try to make you a star and most people would side with you and drown out the negative. But you completely missread the room and it all the American people very wrong. Virtue signaling over the body of this young man, I will choose to believe you are simply ignorant and not purposeful in all this.
There should not need to be an explanation
She has plenty of explaining to do!
She had no business doing this, I don’t expect. Her to crucify amber publicly, but you be impartial and hug her behind closed doors
I DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED I EAS NOT THERE BUT WE MUST FORGIVE IF WE CALL OURSELVES CHILDREN OF GOD WE MUST FORGIVE AS GOD FORGIVES US AMEN
I'm human and never killed anyone
You overstep and you was wrong now if she was sentence to 25 yrs then I would say hug her and give her bible
I don’t like this sell out!
Commenters on here are too judgmental. This is an isolated incident where the victim's family who would feel better (and move on with their lives) if they were to forgive. And the perpetrator is (apparently) remorseful. The sentence was already made when she asked for the hug from the judge. She will still have to serve 10 years in prison. No... it's not gonna start a trend where all defendants will get hugs from judges.
Botham’s mother testified that she was concerned about Botham’s lil brother....What if Botham’s brother was tricking you? What if he pretended to want to hug her but really had something sinister planned? What if he had weapon and stabbed Amber in the neck or attacked her? Would this judge have assumed the liability because she allowed him to hug the convicted murder?
Don't people go through metal detectors prior to entering a courthouse? I don't see how there would be much risk of anything happening aside from the peanut gallery commenting.
Tragic. Good job judge.
Humans put stipulations on the instruction: "Love your enemies, Bless them that curse you, Do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you." Did God really mean that or was it a mistake? Judge Tammy Kemp, thank you for obeying God. Many may ridicule you, but you are endowed with the power from heaven to endure. Stand!
@Love
You sound like a child who still feeds on the milk of the word as Jesus said.
Grow up and start feeding on the meat of the word and stop being a nominal Christian who lack understanding
@@nathanj3665 Sound? You must be a Doer of the word and not a hearer only. Talk about bottle feeding, geez. Lol
Gos has nothing to do with this nonsense
I don't agree with the judge. Nor the hug. But it's his request. And I respect that
Can someone tell me why this moment was wrong? I see unconditional love for fellow humans, I see love and maybe even forgiveness. A lot of people don't understand empathy because they lack empathy, so my words will confuse and maybe even anger those people, and for that I am sorry.
You miss the point but one day you'll get it.
Lawney Malbrough what’s the point
@Mike Nunyabiznesson the contrary, you and your fellow like minded commenters are the only ones observably crying. Might want to use a less ironic insult, friend.
@Mike Nunyabizness are we talking colloquialisms or are you making a comment about my capitalisation? Maybe a statement about an over-used phrase? Petty and sad to say the least.
@Mike Nunyabizness extremely petty, perfect grammar is not needed to understand what I said. We're also not in a professional environment, so you're just being obnoxiously stuck up as a desperate attempt to find any criticism that'll land. Keep wasting time nitpicking people's capitalisation though, I'm sure it's real thrilling
Embarrassing
VERY!!!!!!!!!
Notice The Judge Stated That She Hesitated The First Time Amber Asked Her For A Hug... ALWAYS Go Off Of Your First Instinct...It's Not What You Do, It's How You Do It....!
This that #Blackgirlmagic yall been talking about...she gave hugs and a Bible so she can get the clout
😂😂😂
I hope she's sanctioned or receives some sort of disciplinary action. The hug was TOO far! As a judge, she knows better than anyone else in that courtroom how her actions would be viewed. This was a murder trial. Sorry, she can't explain her actions away. There is no 'good reason' for her to hug a defendant in a murder trial. She was out of line...period! I wonder how many BLACK defendants she comes off the bench to hug. She is a fraud!
People who don't know the whole story should not talk. She should not have been convicted of murder. Mansloder yes murder no. There was no premeditation here this whole thing is a joke,
Roger Ledoux your statement is full of so much ignorance .....
Days the person who probably does not live in Dallas and does not know the whole story.
Hypocrite! You hoped not to get the case and gave the murderer a hug. Smh
There is nothing hypocritical about that.
The very fact that he was murdered was in vain - You don't console the murder who caused it. So how many young black men who have been sent to prison for twice as many years for less of a crime, and their lives are ruined has Tammy Kemp hugged and consoled after their sentencing - I bet none. She is biased against her own people - Remove her from the bench.
Good for the judge for doing what is in her heart and soul... admiring her courage from a distance
People need to take a stand for they think is right.
Her courage you call this courage I would hate for you to see real courage because you will probably wouldn't recognize it as real courage you act like this women was Victorious and she was not
Its funny as a judge having other black defendants in front of her.. it has been noted she never had this couraged before or have the same compassion when she was a prosecutor..locking black defendants up. No her act was completely wrong in this situation. She is a judge and the judge is supposed to be impartial.. no matter what her opinion or feelings or religion is. She has shown that she can be impartial when it comes to Black defendants... she should have done it with this one. Bottom line!
For they think is right😭😭
That wasn’t courage that was favoritism and cowardice
You must be white
This just isnt the reality of what really happends this was a strange circumstance
Yeah would they have hugged Osama Bin Laden though? I guess not...
I see many knuckle-dragging, emotional children upset here. I’m glad y’all don’t control anything. You’re all sad. Mature, please.
Someone died and we keep brushing this off like it’s gonna eventually go away. It won’t, and the whole justice system will soon be in on trying to get all the Amber Guyger’s less time for MURDER. People get life, people get no parole. But she will be out in 5 YEARS?! Are you kidding me? How can you think this is okay? This is what’s wrong with the world now, as long as it’s a privileged person who “was too tired” it’s okay because they “overworked” themselves. But they completely ignore the fact that there was a man in his own home (let me point out it is a black victim, though whenever it’s a white on black crime “race doesn’t matter”), minding his own business. He gets SHOT AND KILLED in his own home by a POLICE OFFICER. This is not okay. It needs to be fixed. 5 years won’t do it. I’m not here to start an argument or be rude to you, I just want you to understand how infuriating it is to see people brushing this off like this isn’t proof that something is wrong with our justice system. Screw the Judge hugging her, that isn’t the problem. What we are going to do to prevent these Amber Guyger’s is the problem. Sorry for taking up your time, though this comment stood out to me more than the others.
Glitch Animations you’re assuming stances that I do not have. Ignorance is real and common. We all are mostly ignorant. No one can be anything but mostly ignorant. No one knows everything, nor do they know most things. Yet most of us assume that we have all the information that we need to make judgments on things we do not fully understand. I wasn’t at that trial. I did not experience it in its entirety. I had not learned law to fully understand what murder means. I had not studied what is typical sentencing for a murder such as this.
Be humble. Know that we shouldn’t stand by while injustice breathes, but know that you are limited to knowledge and understanding.
I embrace questioning judgments. I shake my head at silliness, typical to that of children, as coming to conclusions with limited understanding....because that will not help. Children don’t win wars.
One of the most embarrassing African moments.....
This is how you make it to the Supreme Court in Amerikkka She's a Clarence Thomas protégé.
So why was this moment hated. I don’t see anything negative about this . I’m so confused about the evaluation of mankind it’s like we’re all moving backwards. Oh no she hugged her and gave her a bible. Really
Banchiilife: That only makes sense if one suffers from the God delusion.
I'll never forget these people really sick
The brother I get, he decided to forgive Amber for the killing of his brother. The victims family have that right to choice how they want to move on with their life.
For a judge your the middle man and is there to keep the piece and fairness. By hugging someone for killing someone you decided to take a side regardless. No less then a former Police officer who probably was in her courtroom before as an officer.
And the Judge has the nerve to say is Sad... All while the justice system has put incident people in prison and some cannot defend themselves properly.
We the public have the right to feel how we want to feel and not impose on the families wishes. A judge should cross a line and by doing this sends a message too all cops that Judges might go easy on them.
The sad part here is that a lot of us don't trust the Justice System and the Judge didn't care for the people that feel this way. The Judge set back the trust. And if she feels Sad the public feels this way then people will look at this and say the system doesn't care for us.
Plain and simple she was Wrong for hugging a murderer you are a judge How many cases have you had like this and you did not hug the murderer
She is just black on the ouitside, if it was a black police officer she would hug
Here’s a big hug murder
jonjon it’s her choice tho
This woman is the judge everybody wants but nobody gets.i wish all court officials were like Mrs kemp
Only if you're white
I want a judge who doesn’t treat cops better than the rest of us.
Lord Jesus ~ I give you thanks and praise for this amazing example of a true Christian ~
Amen! I love the judge! She’s a women of God
Same God that apparently had the victims death as part of his plan.
Shut up
God is not a god of confusion and disorder. This was both ! stop using god as an excuse to be ignorant and blind !
This has nothing to die with God, this woman failed to to do her job in order to impress her peers in law enforcement
3:40 *as people. Not very bright this one.
“Persons” is the plural form of person. Look it up.
Its not my place to say who deserves forgiveness
But this was a cool moment
God steps in to heal and can give you the strength to forgive. Not forget, to forgive.
But as a judge she's supposed to be impartial...so it's not her place to do either one..... Especially in the courtroom.. in front of a camera when millions are looking.... Very inappropriate and wrong she want to show that much compassion become a pastor.
@@pharaoh2537 preach!
Amen! God bless Judge Kemp he’s pleased with what she’s gone! Doesn’t matter what people say about her! 🙏🏽
This is court not church kemp is a judge not a pastor
What his brother wanted ??? His brother wanted nothing to do with Amber and that enraged her and she killed him point blank range....this is unbelievable
