While Indigenous people call for justice, Winnipeg’s police take aim at graffiti
I thought it was a joke. I thought maybe the Walking Eagle, the satirical Indigenous news site, was hard at work again. Sadly, you can’t make this type of disdain up.
There were three examples of the graffiti in the five images provided in the release. The first, written in red, said “Search the Landfills”; another, written in pink, read “No More Cops.” The other three read “ACAB,” which is commonly held to mean “All Cops Are Bastards.” The police urged anyone who knows anything about this to call its Major Crime Unit.
If Winnipeg police took Indigenous people seriously, these cases are what major crimes would devote their time to. Officers would be working onfor the bodies of Marcedes Myran, Morgan Harris and an unidentified victim named Mashkode Bizhiki’ikwe , three of the four women alleged to have been killed by Jeremy Skibicki.
