This is beyond sad. This man got his life taken away all because he was eating biscuits. What a horrible excuse for detaining someone. 😥😢😭
There is a guy I read on tmz government will not release because of pieces chicken he took to his cell and use a piece of his uniform for workout gear
He was eating biscuits without a mask. Absolutely not acceptable I. Australia
Do really think they killed him for eating biscuits.They meant to kill him,because they knew they could get away with it.
@@busterofcoviddeniers The British and Australian call cookies biscuits.
This is the justification of pnk devils. Ugh
I am so tired of seeing black people treated like this around the world... this is ridiculous. These officers need to be held accountable.
Not only that but Aborigines are the natives in Australia. They can't tell them to go back to some other country, because they're already on their ancestral homeland.
people need to stop with the victim mentality, you can't have equality by creating inequality
✊🏾💯💜
Yeah? Where's Richard Aron's vigil because no cop? I thought so.
Racist.@@SpringLeafWolf
The original natives deserve complete compensation , talking about human rights,
they have almost disappeared completely
what would you consider 'complete compensation'
@Aunty Nick population increase due to a broadening or softening of the definition of being aboriginal (here in Australia) easily explains the increase⁉️
they receive over a billion in benefits and privileges every year from the other Australians. they have for many may years now. in fact as a whitey it seems rather like inequality....
That is disgusting, those officers murdered that man.
He committed a home invasion, you just going to gloss over that fact
V And in your mind that fact gives the officers a right to murder him?
@@user-eh8yz6ko3t he was in jail serving his time and it was freaking wrong for those bastards to suffocate him to death...you're so heartless!
@@user-eh8yz6ko3t And....He was In prison he didn't deserve to die
i worked in prisons a warden gave a speech the judge sentenced him we do not continue in the punishment this was overkill ego i seen it in there
Policy changes??!? Someone needs to be held accountable for David’s death. You gonna choke someone to death over a biscuit.
Exactly
England should have kept their prisoners in England instead of sending them to Australia. Think about it.
English settlers, former prisoners, did the exact same thing to Natives of North America, after they taught the "settlers" survive in the "New World." The "settlers" behavior has not changed to date.
We call them a sickness, classified as COLONizer.
Make America great again,,,America was great until white people started showing up on native Americans land,,,respect from a native of Australia

So it's about race hey?

What is wrong with these people.They have ice running through their veins.
RIP to David.Say his name.
Peace and Blessings
I can’t believe this is real … these people need to be held accountable.
Unfortunately this has been happening to Blacks for years w/o any reporting.
Oh so naive 🤔
@@loriannrichardson7644 native Americans: first time?
Genocide of the original Australians has been occurring ever since the the British set foot on this continent. Believe me, white aussies want this sad saga to stay hidden. The late Kevin Gilbert wrote a book, "Living Black". Please read it to gain insight into the human horrendous tragedy. Gilbert voiced that Black Aborigines underwent a rape of the soul.
To our ancestors who have been moving this evil, please help this lady. No one should have to be this strong, this woman is not a machine Please watch over her and carry her and move any evil out of her way. Hold her until her boy can hold her again, please strike these wicked things down
We are in NEED of a GLOBAL CITIZEN GROUP to oversee police brutality and racism.
OK
That would expose the real Racist .. Black and Brown
@@johnabrams249 you know how ridiculous you sound?! What power do black and brown people have to oppress others?
@@Angel-tw3ko
"What power to black and brown people have"
*WOW! YOU SOUND LIKE A WHITE SUPREMACIST*
Do you know how ridiculous you sound?
@@Angel-tw3ko
I guess out of 54 countries in Africa Blacks have zero power? Middle Eastern Countries, No Power.. South America? Nope.
Maybe "Your People" (Not your people just because their black and brown)might not have as much Power as you might like, but maybe there are good reasons for that
Keep Crying see how far that gets you
I bet none of these officers will be held accountable
God Bless that mom. It’s 2022 hopefully we will finally be seen as full human instead of 3/5th of a person.
That power does not belong to "them" to grant. You are what you believe you are regardless of what others think or how they act towards you. Hold your head up and stand firmly, with confidence in your own light. 👍
Im Aussie and the aboriginals has been shat on here . They have a history that has been tarnished by us the white Australians . I really feel for them and do all i can to help
Is that the word used for black or mixed people down there
@@toughflowers5088 What word ?
@@bsting601 aboriginals!!
Aboriginal is there race and also means indigenous . They are Proud in their name
I wonder if you whip yourself over this, cry whitey is evil with each stroke.
I still get teary eyed when I see footage of BLM protests in other countries. It's as if the world came together for a brief time.
Real change happens when we the people represent ourselves.
Our elected representatives have been serving their own personal and political needs for far too long.

No greater truth spoken. Thank you Randal

I could just as easily say most people "like you" dont think they are Anoying and that would be a FACT Just like when I say "Most People" think they are Anoying that is also a Fact, Here's another Fact, Most Africans despise BLM
The Australian Government has the same blood on their hands that the US has. So sad. I pray her she gets justice and also changed for her people. I heard that Australia isn't a place that's friendly to Black Peoole.
the "blacks" as you put it have more rights than the white's in Aussie, they receive over a billion in benefits and enjoy many more privileges than the whites every year..... you heard wrong
✊🏾💯💜
When in the service, I spoke with Aborigines on 2 separate occasions in the north and south of Australia. I was surprised to learn how much they look up to AA's for inspiration. I saw injustice there that broke my heart. An Aboriginal woman as dark as Wesley Snipes (a good thing 🙂👍) was begging alms on the street. The way the "others" treated her made me feel compassion for her. I knew how that felt, to be treated less than. I went and talked to the woman, gave her some money and let her know she was loved and not worthless. I was told point blank by one of the "others" that they did not like "black" people. They were referring to the Aboriginals. I never spoke to that person again. The Aboriginals I spoke with opened my eyes to alot of things. We had really good convo and there was nothing but love between us. I let them know that our people see them and they are not invisible nor forgotten. The weird thing is that the "others" treated my kind with more respect than the ones that were right there in their own backyard who are the indigenous people of that land. 🤔🤷🏾♀️ Went to other parts of the pacific, Asia, and observed something similar but it was more in the way of colorism. Colonialism truly needs to die. Just in case you were confused, there is no master race or superior morality. We have ALL fallen short and missed the mark. Make no mistake, death is the great equalizer of us all. Killing someone because you feel they are beneath you will only bring temporary gain. In the end, you too will die but who will be there to truly mourn your absence? May these ancient and wonderful people find strength to overcome and may the young man rip. Condolences to his family. 🙏💕
Beautiful said. 👏🏾 As an Afro-American, I stand in solidarity with these beautiful and amazing people. ✊🏾❤

Those prison officers need to be locked up they murdered David . Disgusting , Justice for David 🙌🏾
This is a repeat of what we go through here in the USA...they need to be accountable for this crime...sad
I pray all humanity will be treated equally 🙏🏾
He was in prison for a home invasion. Are you just going to gloss over that fact because you weren’t personally affected by it
Prayer + No Action = A Daaaaam Joke !!
@V Incarcerated in a small cell with several men sent to prevent a dive into a "cookie jar". Averting the possible diabetic coma, with death by not breathing. The status under which they live routinely is what marks this as unsurprising for him and his mother. She privy to what you don't know about him and how he ended up there.
@@floppletopple but you mean what the Europeans have done to the Australians. The aboriginals are the TRUE Australians. ✊🏾
@@user-eh8yz6ko3t that’s what he was serving time for, his crime, and if the judge thought his crime warranted the death penalty, he would have given it, you dirty racist.
Lord, please protect this woman as she fights for justice for her son. I pray that YOU protect her from the evil judicial system in Australia. May there be strength in numbers to join her for a battle that's not going to be easy TO WIN... but in the name of Jesus it can be done. AMEN❣️❣️❣️🙏
killed for eating cookies, damn...
*Sorry isn't enough. Look at what happened in Canada. How do yu call yourselves children of God and play with the devil all day - shameful* .
First nation/aboriginal peoples suffer so unfairly from poverty/addiction
This beyond barbaric...no one deserves this kind of punishment. Police need training on how to handle suspects with respect. Pure disgusting.
these cops clearly aren't good people, It doesn't matter how much training they get, they'll still be bad people and keep doing these horrible things.
A human don't need training to treat another human with respect...
These ws demonic lunatics need to be treated in the same way they treat others
#karmacome
Not training this evil needs imprisonment and punishment a system removed.
“Because he wouldn’t stop eating biscuits” I LITERALLY GAGGED… are you fucking serious?!
Being black in this world is not easy
How ironic when we are the original people of this planet..original human beings..
Totally revolting white privilege ppl ALL over the 🌎🌏🌍‼️
My love & prayers from the Navajo Nation. ✊🏼🦅🖤
Australia is no different than AmeriKKKa......
So we see.
This is sickening….HES A HUMAN BEING FOR GOD SAKE!!!
Watching another black man die at the hands of police officers!!! Heart wrenching ❤️🔥
They're not black.
I have much respect for the aboriginal people of Australia. Unlike Hispanics/LatinX, their not afraid or ashamed to call themselves Black.
This ain't nothing but the truth.
That is what happens to some people with all the mixing up the races, have done to people's minds?" A lot of these people with admixture, some have so many mental issues already to deal with, on top of dealing with sick people like those ignorant cops! I can't see why any mixed person would even want to be like those stupid racist people in the first place?" Having a slave mentality like most racist people I guess! People of color need to wake up from their sleep and stand together with other people of color, when it comes down to it, because these sick racist don't care about you either, while trying to be white and showing racism towards other black people! "Which is very sick, embarrassing, like over in the "Dominican Republic who is discriminating on the "Hatian people? "That Devil is working over time people, don't be weak to his commands?"
Hispanics aren't black
@@philrivers7533 Atleast not these people who look more white than the average "Hispanic, some have more "European than Hispanic?
As a indian origin person living with aborginal people in NT. I truly feel for them.❤
A story line reflecting exactly what has been normalized against the "originals" and the descendants of Africa here in this country. A multitude of stories hidden from history.
They're not related to African at all. They are their OWN race.
It’s like you just write random words…
@@jamesli2441 Who isn't related? Africans brought here from Africa and their African descendants? If the referral is implied to be the people here on this continent when Europeans arrived, there was no suggestion that they are of African descent. Although, there are indications that some had made it here on their own much earlier.
@@humanistheart Comparing the treatment of the Natives of Australia to the treatment of the Natives of this Continent and the people of Africa that were brought here. Forgive me for not being long winded about what I thought would be understood with fewer words.
@@kathyperry5787 The "three race theory is false. Australoids and Negroids are two different races
How come USA British Canada India n European Union don’t condemn Australian for committing genocide n human rights against indigenous people
Perhaps because that would mean standing up to the Common Wealth, the Royal Family and the stain of the British Empire.
They’re doing the same thing
Because what's the use of pointing fingers at people when you're engaging in the same activity. They're all demons spreading whyte supremacy.
That just put me in tears and a brokered heart 😡
I had a dream about the families of bad police were being tortured & murdered by vigilantes. I woke up thinking that was a weird dream but also an interesting idea to keep police from doing undue harm. Wild, I know.
That line of thinking is exactly what created the cycle of systemic oppression/prejudice in the first place. Society shouldn't just go around punishing entire communities of innocent people for grievances against a few individuals. It doesn't work and has been proven to only cause further harm by escalating/compounding the problems. Historically perceived wrong doings perpetrated by minorities have been commonly used to blanket entire groups as unfavorable or dangerous in turn justifying the oppression and persecution that group; Literally every single genocide in history begins with the justification that there is something innately "wrong" with an entire group of people because of their proximity to X offense, whether that offense is real or perceived doesn't matter. The entire group is deemed a threat to the majority and therefore they must be oppressed and removed to ensure the safety and welfare of the majority. But that thought process does not track and once the first "offensive" group is neutralized, the target always expands to include other groups perceived to be in close proximity to the first. In WWII the targeted demographic very quickly swerved past the Jewish community to smaller minority groups like 'gypsies', and on and on until eventually anyone 'non-Aryan' needed to be eradicated for "the greater good"; the target only continues to expand until eventually everyone is deemed as wrong/dangerous (in WWII this included anyone with special needs, mental/physical disabilities, orphans, elderly/infirm, the poor, the LGBT, etc). The group in power being the only exception, at which point inevitably the main group will begin to splinter and persecute eachother for "wrong think". This is the natural progression of that line of thought, without fail everytime.
Once the door is opened to punish innocent people for their mere proximity to what is socially deemed offensive/unfavorable, it is a very slippery slope. If society began accepting vigilante justice against the innocent families of "bad" cops (eg criminals, those who use their position and their badge to commit acts of violence and abuse) where does that end? Clearly the US justice system needs overhauled on every level, however fighting against systemic police brutality and targeted violence by engaging in targeted violence and brutality only results in further innocent blood shed and ensures the cycle will continue to repeat. This is why vigilante "justice" is not a concept that should be entertained, especially not in a positive light.
I think the most disrespectful part is to be treated so poorly in your own land from the Americas to Australia indigenous people are still being treated badly causing further dysfunction.
I disagree
@@kanew5957 I respect people's opinions but my statement is not opinion it's facts. Facts and history doesn't care about your feelings.
Such beautiful intelligent people. My heart breaks for all the devastation and torture that brown and black people have had ( and still) at the hands of white Europeans. So much disease and pain….. for power. 😣
Stop saying brown ???? a lot of those Aboriginals call themselves black and also the White Australians call them black or Niggers too….You brown MFs are on your own, because when ever y’all get what y’all want from our community them y’all wanna call us Niggers too then take sides with White people
"Wouldn't stop eating biscuits." Oh the humanity 🤭🤨
Cause he had diabetes and could slip into a coma, try watching the video till the end
As a black American I respect the aboriginals of Australia and my fellow black people of the African decent from Canada France Brazil columbia and UK.
Don't commit crime, don't go to gaol.It's not brain surgery.
This is a world wide problem! It is very sad and disheartening.
Hey BLM, does anybody know where the $60,000,000 went?
I feel so sorry for his mother and family those people are monsters and they don't deserve life...how can you treat people like that when you are the foreigner on their land they need to sue
As an afro american, I'm sending my love. 💞❤
You are our aunties and uncles and cousins . We stand with you we fight with you. One day I will go to Australia and be there to help build with you we are family
My condolences to the loved ones of this man!! Iv sadly lost more than one friend this way over last few years here in East Coast Canada.
But aboriginals are free in their own ways we know that they are powerful
Australia has gotten full authoritarian lately. I used to think AUSTRALIA was a free and sovereign nation.
It isn't if you're first nations.
this breaks my heart,I do give thanks to the blm and African American for showing us aboriginals how to stand up to these thugs in uniform,we are treated the same way by the government,rip brothers,there will be another day in paradise for us
Sending love and compassion. ✊🏾❤

Years late. Like 40 plus year’s later. NZ and Australia have the same bs. Australia policy if your Maori or Aboriginal armed police response. Our cousins around the world. The same happened in New Zealand. Except Australians don’t see what happens to New Zealanders white and brown. He wasn’t shot. He was already in custody. Same voices, Anzac voices but NZ unheard. White kiwis included.
They literally snatched the life out of this poor man the same way their ancestors snatched these people's homelands...so sad😔💔

They overreacted to someone eating too many biscuits to begin with. Then I would hardly describe how they treated him after that, subduing him. And yes. They definitely overly George Floyd-ed him.

THATS MURDER🧐
They will see David as their breath is taken away.
The 2020 BLM movement has sparked reflection and discussion all over the world including little countries like Malaysia, where racial discrimination from government and society is still a problem for minorities like me and many others.
Look how many police officers to hold him down unbelievable. He was just just one person. So sad. Rest in peace young man.
All of these Aboriginal families should be financially compensated as well.reforming all anti laws. They r only 3% of the total population, each of them can be brought out of poverty & prison a little overall costs to the ctry. No poverty, results mostly in no crime
The officers weren’t properly trained? 🤔 you really shouldn’t need training to treat someone like a human being. Justsaying
@4:26 look how his back rises after his knee comes off of him. Just sickening. 😭
Black American Aboriginals understand this far too well.
POST the names and faces of those officers!! THATS MURDER!!!!!!!👿
I guess Australia got a lot in common with America other than they both speak English and starts with”A”.
Oh, sure, because stopping someone from eating biscuits is definitely a life-threatening situation! 🍪😒 #BiscuitGate
All because he was eating biscuits. He didn't deserve that. Nobody deserves to be treated in this manner. Just take the damn biscuits away and keep it moving. Officers no matter where they're from act solely on fear! They act out of fear, we're all in danger and we're all just one damn bullet away from being a victim to the police because if that cop already has a attitude they will take it out on you.
Sooo the movement is felt everywhere but America? Got it!
That’s right mom when DAVID can’t speak for himself you have to be his voice because if you don’t stand up for DAVID know one else will I’m praying for you and everybody involved 😘🥰❤️💯🙏🏽
Let's take a look at her first before judging those who's job it is to keep the public safe from him. It usually starts in the home and yet she has the nerve to hold others to accountability for her sons own demise

I understand the reason why they stopped him from eating biscuits (cause of Diabetes) but if u kill him than its no different if he would have kept eating biscuits
Australia is shame to humanity😭
It's sad that full bloodied aborigines are dying out. Lots of people who calls themselves aborigines looks like full blooded caucasoids.
