19/x Communities and families have stepped up. It’s time for the government to do the same. — PolitiTweet.org
David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111
18/x We join Donnell’s family tonight in calling for accountability, in calling for change, and in knowing that justice will elude us until the ongoing human rights crisis of police violence and gun violence in America is stopped. — PolitiTweet.org
David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111
17/x If you believe in American justice, you have to believe that we deserve a system where laws, not men with guns, determine guilt or innocence. — PolitiTweet.org
David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111
16/x There will be no justice in this case. Justice would be Donnell living his life, not dying at 18 years old in his Rick & Morty tee shirt. — PolitiTweet.org
David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111
15/x Often, the justification offered by cops relies on their subjective impression of danger—which, of course, is filt through a lens of fear and racial bias. Made lethal by what we see in this vid: panicked, shouting assault, guns drawn on a civilian who was presumed innocent. — PolitiTweet.org
David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111
14/x in the 77 days of 2022 that have passed, police have killed 138 people. https://t.co/rZB5z8onIx — PolitiTweet.org

13/x They don’t need to take a life. And yet they do. They continue to. They shoot first. When Donnell was lying injured on the ground, they didn’t render aid—they handcuffed him. And he died. — PolitiTweet.org
David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111
12/x They can follow and pursue in their car. They don’t need to jump out, guns drawn. They can call for backup. They absolutely can de-escalate—we’ve seen them apprehend mass shooters without lethal force. — PolitiTweet.org
David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111
11/x The car was registered to Donnell. They had his address. We often forget that police have ample tools to apprehend people without lethality—pinging cell towers, DMV databases, surveillance cameras, air support. They can find you if they need to. — PolitiTweet.org
David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111
10/x Police didn’t attempt de-escalation, as their own policy dictates they do. https://t.co/QBxCTkC7eu — PolitiTweet.org
David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111
9/x He was not, to anyone’s knowledge, armed. True, he tried to drive away. But what would you do? What would you do if you grew up in Freddie Gray’s neighborhood? Would you, like Daunte Wright, try to make it home to your mom? https://t.co/a1MV5059lw — PolitiTweet.org
David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111
8/x No calm, reasoned arrest followed by a trip to Burger King. https://t.co/HgeEZgKTq6 — PolitiTweet.org
David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111
7/x The video footage does not show police trying to talk to him. No peaceful negotiation. https://t.co/WvyOxpz0Lj — PolitiTweet.org
David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111
6/x When this young man—who grew up in the world of Freddie Gray, in the world of police violence, in the world of men who looked like him having their lives taken—tried to drive away, police opened fire. — PolitiTweet.org
David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111
5/x He had a warrant for failing to appear on an open case. That means he missed court. And it also means he was innocent until proven guilty. — PolitiTweet.org
David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111
4/x Just 6 years later and a couple of weeks ago. Donnell Rochester, at just18 years old, was shot and killed by police officers in Baltimore. — PolitiTweet.org

3/3 "Gilmor Projects, they do anything in Gilmor Projects, it’s a lot of shootings, it’s a lot of killings. It’s just everything. Basically, a child wouldn’t want to grow up in Gilmor. I know I didn’t." — PolitiTweet.org
David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111
2/3 “I’m happy I’m getting out of here. We’re basically moving to Hartford County. Everything is working out as planned. Gilmor Projects is something else." (continued) — PolitiTweet.org

His interview: 1/3 "Donnell Rochester, 12, hanging out in the playground at Gilmor Elementary School in Sandtown where he attended school. He currently lives in the Gilmor Homes housing project with his family, but they plan to leave Sandtown.'' continued below — PolitiTweet.org

Thread by me and @GalvinAlmanza In 2016, time magazine did a photojournalism piece on the neighborhood Freddie Gray grew up in Baltimore. They photographed a number of people- 12-year-old Donnell Rochester was one of them. https://t.co/c77kqAJO0f https://t.co/ntKpUSWcva — PolitiTweet.org
