"The white kids weren't running; the black kids were."

A Texas mother’s Facebook video post expressing her thoughts about the McKinney pool party has gone viral with over 1.8 million views.

Kisa Jackson, shown sitting in a car, said she was on her lunch break and had just had a heated discussion with co-workers about the McKinney pool party incident. She made the video to get her thoughts out.

In the roughly five-and-a-half minute video, Jackson places most of the blame on the parents of the children involved for the way events went down.

She gives specific reasons why she felt McKinney police officer Eric Casebolt acted appropriately, given the chaotic situation. “Do I think that the incident was excessive? Yes. But do I think it was necessary? Yes,” she says.

Jackson first turns her thoughts towards the parents of the children, saying they should teach their “children when the police arrive on a scene, you should stay there and you wait for instructions. Based on, you don’t know what’s going on. The police officer does not know what is going on.”

“Secondly, everyone is in an uproar about how they [restrained] the black kids and not the white kids. The white kids weren’t running; the black kids were, and I’m black by-the-way,” says Jackson.

Regarding Officer Casebolt’s treatment of the bikini-clad 15-year-old Dajerria Becton, the Texas woman highlights that he asked her and her friends to leave three times. “The last time when he told her to leave, she walked off and mouthed something smart to the officer. At that point, he grabbed her…And she started to pull away, that’s a threat. He had every right to detain her ‘by any means necessary’ from Malcolm X,” says Jackson.

She continues: “Everyone is so upset because he grabs her, he’s holding her down, he has his knee in her back. What is he supposed to do?…Hold her gently. He is an officer. You do what an officer says in that situation.”

She also believes Casebolt had every right to pull his gun when the teenage boys ran up behind him. “One little boy bucked up, as it he was about to strike the officer,” Jackson points out. Their actions were clearly a “threat.”

“Now let’s get it straight. For real,” Jackson says, looking directly into the camera. “We black. We are dealing with 430 years of systematic genocide. Nothing has changed. You are still black and walking. Are all officers bad? No. Are all officers good? No. But you still have to follow protocol.”

“It’s about again the parents, and teaching our children to respect authority figures, whether it’s an officer. Whether it’s a teacher. Whether it’s just a parent walking down the street.”

While Jackson’s sentiments have garnered over 26,000 “Likes” and 64,000 shares on Facebook, not everyone has been positive.
One black women commented: “You are stupid. White people Will not respect you because of what you’re saying. Even a little white boy filming the whole thing said they skipped over him and went to the black kids. You don’t get any brownie points in life by putting down your own race also you have to understand they don’t do that to [theirs] so you get no respect from them.”

Another agreed with that sentiment: “So true…Kisa Jackson must think that because she is BLACK, her words carry more weight? Well if her black son was on that ground, having done nothing wrong, I KNOW she would not be on Facebook talking about how to raise your kids! I feel she is wrong in blaming parents. Who said these children were not trained properly? I wish I could pull this video off social media!!!!”

Jackson’s closes her video: “My break is over. I’m going to breathe. And again, parents be accountable for your children. Children, know what you’re supposed to do.”
