Of defending himself? Those cops were shot at -- and injured -- while serving a no-knock warrant.

OJ's book did come out. And he lost the profits on it.

Except the cops testified that they had announced themselves before breaking in. And literally every neighbor and the victims say they never announced.

So they.....went through all of the trouble to get a no-knock warrant and went against the basic definition of the warrant for...reasons?

And the whole being in plainclothes thing. A no-knock warrant? By a group of armed people out of uniform? That don't announce they are police?

They murdered that woman, punished her partner for defending their home with a legal weapon, and then all of his "charges" were dropped because neither he nor Breonna Taylor did anything fucking wrong.

Yeah, I can't imagine any major publisher/distributor will touch this. Way too hot to be worth whatever profit they could maybe make.

I'm pretty sure the last time this happened (I think with Hawley's book?) it was a giant sham and they still ended up making money off it.

S+S are definitely not the good guys here...especially because this shit keeps happening.

Because everyone who fired their weapon was justified in doing so. They thought they were under attack from a suspect and the boyfriend thought someone was breaking in. I dont feel like either of them are the bad guy here.

I mean, S+S are a giant company with hundreds of distribution deals. Books certainly aren't being reviewed on a book by book basis. The publisher says they want them distributed, S+S does it.

I'm not saying they are the good guys. Just that they are an unfeeling corporate machine.

Yeah it's probably time to force them to review their deals.

And I looked up the Hawley thing, originally they were legitimately the publisher and backed off, but then Regnery picked it up and well...S+S is the distributor for Regnery as well.

The only one defending himself was the man who shot at the cops. The cops burst into the wrong house unannounced in plain clothes.

And?

Police returned fire after being fired at first by her boyfriend, defending themselves. She was killed in crossfire, they didn't mean to kill her, don't even think they knew she was in there. Unfortunate situation. On the subject of Breonna Taylor though, some recent news:

"Mom of Breonna Taylor says activists have exploited her death"

https://justthenews.com/nation/mom-black-woman-killed-police-says-activists-have-exploited-her-death-calls-blm-fraud

The mother of a black Kentucky woman shot by police last year claimed this week that Black Lives Matter is a "fraud" organization and that activists have exploited her daughter's death for financial gain"

"Tamika Palmer, the mother of the late Breonna Taylor who was gunned down during an alleged no-knock raid by police last year, said in a Facebook post this week that she has "watched [people] raise money on behalf of Breonna's family who has never done a damn thing for us" and that she "could walk in a room full of people who claim to be here for Breonna's family who don't even know who I am.

Except she specifically calls the Louisville Chapter of BLM frauds, not the movement as a whole....
