No, you're racist for assuming that the black police officer would automatically show bias towards a black victim.

The fact is that many cops are assholes. Shocking, I know.
I acted exactly the same as eric garner did to a cop two months ago after being stopped for jaywalking and I got off with a warning. I was pissed off and the officer told me that I should just relax and watch where I was going and make sure I use the crosswalk.

So yes if he was white he would've been fine.

Inb4 someone calls bullshit on you punching a cop and reaching for his gun (or other unreliable evidence the grand jury based their decision on).

Fox news is clearly the best news network on TV. They hire the hottest women in news (anchors and guests,) and if I'm going to watch bad news, I might as well enjoy the view.

It is literally like arguing more people read NYT than the Sun Times. Who fucking cares? The interwebs have made traditional media obsolete.
You do realize that 99% of the news on the web all comes from one or two sources too right? Try surfing news sites, even independently owned ones. It is all the same shit the major news TV networks spew. The days are no different then when the NY Times dictated the news to the country...

Sounds logical.

After all every encounter with police is just like every encounter with guards in West Freeport.

Since it was not technically a choke hold (the victim could speak) it was hard for a Grand Jury to hand down an indictment as it related to the charges. The criminal justice system does work both ways.

As much as you shit house lawyers think you know this was less about police brutality or racism and more about failure of Police Departmental policies.

Yet if you attack one..or lose enough faction they will..

Also if you are of certain class or religion they will attack you in North Freeport.

You miss the point that this isn't an issue the Grand Jury is intended to decide or has history decided until recently.
