Reasons for killing Black men

Do not use without permission.
Calvon "Andre" Reid was killed by police in Florida last month.
Here are some rather ludicrous reasons attributed to killing black men.

ANCIENT TIMES:
Working on holy days
Saying God is your father
Healing the sick
Getting angry at money changers
Railing against the government
Fishing without a permit

THEN:
Skipping rocks across a pond
Voting
Stealing chickens or livestock
Demanding respect
Vagrancy
Allegedly looking at, talking to, or raping white women
Being unpopular

NOW:
Resisting arrest
Stealing cigars/selling loose cigarettes
Appearing scary or belligerent
Carrying toy gun
Being homeless
Minding own business
Jaywalking/walking home
Driving recklessly
Asking for medical help
