The murder of Oscar Grant, Jr. by BART police in Oakland is nothing more than a cold-blooded execution. This pig committed a capital offense as far as I'm concerned. My heart goes out to Oscar Grant's family, who had to watch someone they love and care about be executed face down on the ground by police seething in evil.
The result of this Nazi style killing is a family left in mourning and a four year-old baby girl fatherless. Most of us have seen the video clips and it's obviously clear that this ravenous and racist devil cop Johannes Mehserle clearly drew his weapon and fired one round into the back of a prone Oscar Grant, Jr.
Only the police can viciously gun down a person in front of a crowd of witnesses and on camera and walk away scot-free. If an ordinary citizen like myself or Joe Blow had done such a thing, we would have been arrested, tried, and convicted. We would be spending 25 to life in prison or sitting on death row. A cop does it and is put on paid administrative leave. They don't have to answer any questions and the police union attorneys are on standby to protect one of their own. But who protects us from them?
If any ordinary citizen had shot a cop, they would be lucky if they're taken into custody in one piece and alive. The accused would be facing capital murder charges.
Police can shoot people anytime, anyplace, anywhere and not only walk away from the hands of justice; but they still may have their jobs and pension. I don't believe that the system will punish Johannes Mehserle for this cold-blooded murder of Oscar Grant, Jr. Afterall, he's a Black man and the lives of Black folks has no value anyway.
Just looking at how the case is being handled we can tell that the district attorney don't really want to bother pursuing charges against officer murderer. When a cop kills in cold-blood it's all about intent and what was the cop's state of mind. But if Joe Blow kills a cop, intent is thrown out the window all together.
No the question that remains is what are we going to do about it? What are we going to do to protect ourselves and loved ones from state sanctioned murderers who hide behind the shield? We're not getting justice no matter how you look at it. Officer Murderer will walk away free once again.
How many more Rodney Kings, Amadou Diallos, Sean Bells or Oscar Grants will it take? Will it take us killing the police? Is that what the police want? If police kill a person in front of a crowd of people, then the officer(s) should be leaving the scene in a body bag too.
Since the police always manage to escape justice, the day is very near when people begin taking matters into their own hands. Black people, we are all Oscar Grants and Rodney Kings and Sean Bells. The only solution to police terrorism is to retaliate.
Lets be real, President Obama is going to do nothing about this. As I sit and watch white liberals pat themselves on the back because a Black president has been elected, that has not changed the racist climate of America and we can see the racism and anti-Black sentiments from Benton Harbor, Michigan to Jena, Louisiana.
The only tool of leverage that we have left is retaliation. If we sit by and do nothing, then our children will have no future, because they'll be fair-game for police. To be shotdown and murdered in the name of the law. It is obviously clear who the real terrorists are and who's the biggest gang in America. They have a vast network weapons and resources. They abuse their power and authority. They can plant evidence on you and frame you up for crimes. They can maliciously beat and shoot people in front of witnesses and on camera. They can lie and intimidate witnesses and suborn perjury. They can beat and torture suspects for "confessions" to crimes. They can plant informants of have informants lie to justify SWAT teaming peoples homes. This is the true nature of the police. To protect and serve who?
Welcome to the rule of tyranny.
Welcome to the reality of police terrorism.
