Can't believe they let that choke hold cop off the hook. The footage clearly showed the man who was being arrested saying 'I can't breathe.' repeatedly. So they're going with 'this man's death is due partly to his poor general health'... really? Sure he was a fatso but really?
I have the feeling things are going to get much worse before they get better...
Meanwhile the 5th state is still waiting for these cop bastards who killed 27-year-old Jonathan Jacob last year to be finally put away for a long time. Doesn't look like it's gonna happen though.
Yeah, that's the way to go ... Gang up on a guy with drug induced mental problems arrested earlier that day and beat him to death. Pigs smh. They actually persecuted the victim's father (interviewed above) for releasing this footage as the powers that be were trying to cover this up. These cops' only mission was to immobilize the detainee so he could be given a relaxing medicine shot by a doctor. Ironically the detainee died upon the doctor's entrance.
The grand jury decision not to bring charges in the chokehold death of Eric Garner, announced Wednesday, was followed with public demonstrations in cities across the nation -- and the Internet.
Thousands of tweeters are up in arms against racial profiling and police brutality in America, issues that have been hard to ignore amid recent protests over the police killings of Michael Brown, Ezell Ford, Akai Gurley and others. #BlackLivesMatter and #HandsUpDontShoot have played a large role in addressing these issues on social media, but there's a new hashtag in town: #CrimingWhileWhite.
Instead of highlighting incidents of prejudice against people of color, #CrimingWhileWhite quickly zeroed in on white privilege, straight from the mouths of those who know it best.
The hashtag shines a bright light on an ugly truth -- see for yourself in the examples below.
Arrested for DUI, cop took me to drive through ATM so I'd have money to bail myself out. #crimingwhilewhite
Exhaled blunt smoke in a cop's face as I opened my door and then told him he couldn't come in without a warrant. He left. #CrimingWhileWhite
My 13yo son and his friends were loitering at Walgreens recently. Only his black friend got searched for shoplifting. ~ #CrimingWhileWhite ~
Ticket for going 120. No license. Judge let me off. "You go to too good a school to be so dumb so I assume you aren't." #CrimingWhileWhite
I dined and dashed-cop found me at the movies, I paid the bill and he left. I was rude but not arrested and not killed. #CrimingWhileWhite
Shoplifted when I was a teenager. Was apprehended but never charged because I looked "like a good kid" #CrimingWhileWhite

The blowhard opportunist muscled his way into the arrangements — and even put out press releases promising to deliver the eulogy — without ever consulting the family or offering to foot the bill.
Gurley’s aunt (Hertencia Petersen) was stunned that Sharpton and his National Action Network billed him as the eulogist for a Friday funeral, when they were planning on a Saturday service and wanted a speaker who actually knew Gurley.
“How can you do a eulogy for someone you don’t even know? It’s heartbreaking,” she said.

I'm sorry, but I do not believe they said what she claims they said, assuming 'they' exist.Quote:

Yup.
