Okay, I didnt get all that upset about the Michael Brown Case in Ferguson, because the guy was a criminal and frankly appeared to be an aggressive thug. However, another African-American, Eric Garner was killed by cops in New York, and this guy had done NOTHING wrong, other than allegedly committing a chicken squat crime of selling loose cigarettes (who knew that was a crime- I didnt). Just like the Brown case, the cops got off with no charges. But in this case, it was clearly wrong. If we can be killed by cops for merely questioning them, this country is in big trouble. Ive been similarly guilty of questioning overly aggressive cops myself (usually at political events). I wasnt assaulted by the cops (maybe because Im a white guy?), and no one else should be either. When cops are out of control, they should be punished. A badge and a gun does NOT give cops permission to assault and kill American citizens! This travesty of justice deserves a protest (a peaceful protest, not burning down the city as the folks in Ferguson did). Hell, Ill probably join them. https://youtube/watch?v=j1ka4oKu1jo
