From OJ onward, the vengeance industry brought to the country by the JUST-US Brothers—”Reverunds” Jackson & Sharpton—continues to lie and dramatize to fill their pockets. How many deaths have these two indirectly caused?
There is an objective truth to Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown—don’t be a thug trying to kill someone. YOU could die doing so.
On the Eric Garner issue, I’m a little concerned. There was no way Garner was just going to walk away with all those cops around him, but he still tried, and we saw on video the result of that. Was the arm crooked around his neck necessary? Having said that I think it is important for politicians to not try to ride the populist train of the “racist police” caused it. You reap what you sow.
Garner died of a heart attack—not a choke hold. Should he be arrested for selling single cigarettes? No. A ticket or fine would have been proper. Even with his priors, it is a silly thing to force a violent take down over.
That is, of course, my own opinion. Your mileage may vary!
Garner died from trying to take a buck from politicians who overtaxed a commodity. The cops were simply doing their job and the guy was huge and was supervised by all the necessary people and it was a heart attack that killed him.
Lots of blood on Sharpton’s hands.
I forecast the Police WILL NOT enforce the silly Liberal “laws” such as selling loosies to circumvent punishing State Taxes.
NY Safe-forgetaboutit.
The Police will pursue homicides, assault & battery, crimes committed by creeps and thugs.
We may see stepped up enforcement against Politicians and Judges. No tolerance for rolling stops, broken tail light, speeding, jaywalking.....
I’m all over that in agreement.
“Garner died of a heart attack—not a choke hold. Should he be arrested for selling single cigarettes?”
The Dictator wants his TAX money. The NYPD Union is happy to play the Sheriff of Nottingham until one of their own is Killed.
I do not have much pity for any of the above. Condolences for the families that will suffer
More big G’ment just means we become the oppressed slaves. No different than the Jews in Ancient Egypt.
Selling single cigarettes may be a dumb law but it’s still on the books there. As I understand it, the police were told to crack down on it.
This was also Garner’s fourth arrest for selling loosies, if I remember right.
This whole thing is a product of Democrats doing their thing. Passing stupid laws and running cities or states. The bottom line is Democrats killed Garner. If those people want to protest, they need to look in a mirror for the real culprits.
