I saw a different video.

Or you saw it through biased "cops can do no wrong" eyes.

He mistakenly pulled out his firearm rather than a taser.

After he put his taser away? Not bloodly likely.

On a legal note, for first degree murder, he must have purposefully, knowingly, negligently, or recklessly committed premeditated murder.

When someone that utterly stupid gets out of bed in the morning they are, in effect, premeditating doing negligent harm. You can't be that dumb and not do damage. Oakland would have been better served giving guns to a troup of chimps.

Meanwhile your case falls apart when you have the full story - he tucked his taser away before pulling his weapon and firing. That doesn't happen by accident.

I saw an illegal act (actus reus), but I did not see mens rea or unlawful intent in premeditation.

He will get involuntary manslaughter or negligent homicide. Not capital murder, not Murder in the First, Not Murder in the Second, Not Manslaughter.

You saw what you saw through biased eyes.

Meanwhile he will get off clean. Why? 'Cause he was a cop and cops can do anything they want.

That doesn't mean he doesn't deserve the death penalty, only that our f-ed up courts won't do what's right.

I can tell that either school is out and your parents are not home yet, or you need to tell your doctor to increase your dosage.

There’s a reason effective weapons aren’t allowed to be owned by citizens in CA...

“Oakland would have been better served giving guns to a troup of chimps.”

Oakland? Oscar Grant was from Hayward. He was killed by Bart Police riding Bart. It is mere chance that he was at an Oakland station at the time. If they had pulled him off the train two stops further down he’d have been in San Leandro. Four stops, in Hayward. Oakland cops and the City of Oakland have NOTHING to do with this.

But the rioting pukes need a gathering spot, so we’re it.
