Sorry but I can’t help it, Fruitvale and San Fransisco two things that just go together.

Actually, Fruit Vale (neighborhood in Oakland, CA) is originally the site of some orchards and farmland, hence the name.

Fruitvale (Bay Area Rapid Transit) Station is where BART policeman Johannes Mehserle killed Oscar Grant on New Year's Day in 2009. Some people have pointed out how coincidental it is that this movie about the incident is being released around the time of the Zimmerman/Martin verdict.

Sounds .like a liberal propaganda film about a thug who was accidentally shot and killed by BART polIce.

There’s enough liberalism in life without this.
