(snip) “As a result of last year’s Trayvon Martin shooting, a company offered for sale a target of a faceless silhouette wearing a hoodie with his hands in his pockets, one of which was holding two objects, these objects in the hand were non-threatening and the target was something that I viewed as a no-shoot situation,” he said.

Re-hire situation, and the city will have to pay the guy $100k probably to make him happy in coming back.
The racist black cop who made the complaint should be shunned by the rest of the force.
Political Correctness in this nation is sooooo out of control!!
The media has taken it to such a high level of disinformation, misinformation and unadulterated propaganda we live in a banana republic. We just have not come to terms to admit it.
People like myself stood by sharing what we perceived to be truth and yet could not do anything about it but watch it evolve. And now here we are.
More than likely he will get a promotion.
I love the way the picture to be shot at portrays Skittles and iced tea, when we know that combination is used to create a drug.
Of course they insinuate he was just an innocent kid with candy.
So you think we have a Justice System?
Either way he should be fired.
I didn’t use the word “justice”...
‘Discovery’ being what it is, what I refer to as ‘truth’ are the facts suppressed by the police and prosecution, withheld to-date.

Are you sure a black cop ratted him out? I never heard that.
We have a JUST US Dept.

You know I never knew that until now. I’ve never seen ir elsewhere till now. Sort of changes the innocent kid going to the store to get something to eat and drink scenario. Funny how the press didn’t release this info (that I’m aware of)...
These things usually take forever with internal reviews, unless you make liberals mad
Watching the media twist it, watching people close their minds because it could not fit in box of what made sense to them . . . reaffirmed that truth, facts have little to do with "social justice" that must be administered by the progressives.
Your point is well taken and appreciated. I too await details unknown to public at large.
What he did showed extremely poor judgement and insensitivity. I would fire the Albany, NY teacher who handed out the “Jews are Evil” assignment — and I would fire this guy.
Exacly what is it that makes these “Trayvon Martin” targets?
Skittles and iced tea.
