Cops shoot a black man while hand cuffed

expr:id='"post-" + data:post.id' >

I do not know what to say to this. So I am just going to lead you to the source for your own examination. However I would like to say, this is something that has to stop.

I am watching the video and although it is unclear, it is apparent that something is going on that should not be going on.

Here is what I found on BET NEWS:


The attorney for a 22-year-old Black man who was shot to death by a Bay-Area California policeman on New Year’s Day says he will file a $25 million lawsuit, and he is demanding that prosecutors charge the officer with murder. “This is the most egregious shooting that I have ever seen,” said civil rights attorney John Burris, who is known for taking on high-profile police-abuse cases in the past. A videotape (see it here. Warning: Graphic Content)taken by a passenger on the train shows an officer with the Bay Area Rapid Transit Police Department standing over the Hayward, Calif., man, who was lying face down and handcuffed. The officer then appears to fire a bullet into the back of Oscar Grant III as fellow officers look on. Read the rest here.



WTF!!!

Our Actions as humans to one another is beyond tolerable. There is going to come a time when racism like this will cause a backlash greater than man kind can handle. I am not one to predict it, but what is there else to say. Police brutality towards any man or woman is bad, but it seams to have its own agenda to target out African decedents here in the American land we call the US. Within our cities this is a major problem.

Whatever happened to protect and serve?

Bump Forward people.
