Cop Accused of Shooting Handcuffed Man Quits
January 9th, 2009

Cop accused of shooting handcuffed man quits. Hundreds of Oakland businesses are still cleaning up damage to buildings after a violent downtown protest. In a scene resembling the Los Angeles uprisings after 1992’s Rodney King beating trial verdict, about 100 people were arrested after breaking windows and trashing stores days after a 22-year-old Black man’s death. But as others had done in L.A., some of those vandalizing in outrage over the police shooting of Oscar Grant III left Black-owned establishments damaged, knowingly or otherwise. Read the rest here.

Such a loss 4 the family.
What do obama say bout this ? sue everybody get paid fo dis sheet. den burn da city down
Its really crazy that things stil happen like that in the bay area i saw the raw footage and think it is just terrible what the cop did to Oscar and then for him to quit through his lawyers he was just being a coward. I will pray for his family and hope that the BART POLICE do their job and bring this KILLEr to justice
As usual, it is always the black man “more likely” to be in jail before the age of 30. Who are doing the studies, or should I say, “statistics?” The power structure will do there best to suppress a particular male population….young black males. Don’t think for one moment that these Draconian laws were coincidental or commonplace, these laws are biased and intentionally targeting men of color. It is written in the Apycrypha that the wicked will pay double for what their hand produced; that is why they do not want to focus on their doom because they know it is COMING. Woe unto those who have constructed cities upon blood and wickedness, the LORD ALMIGHTY said.
WHAT’S UP LOSERS ,HAVN’T TALKED TO YOU WAH WAHS IN A COUPLE OF WEEKS . WHAT ARE YOU CRYIN ABOUT NOW. BURNING DOWN YOUR OWN HOOD AGAIN. WHAT A BUNCH OF GENIUSES. IF YOU LOSERS CONTINUE TO REFER TO YOURSELVES AS PEOPLE OF COLOR,I’M GONNA HAVE TO GIVE LINDSEY LOHAN A CALL AND TELL HER SHE WAS RIGHT WHEN SHE REFERED TO OBAMA AS A COLORED PRESIDENT.

GOTTA GO NOW VERY BUSY,GOT SOME B-BALL ON THE T.V. BURN BABY BURN.
Where are my postings at?
Let me make something clear to ALL who were not there. First; there wasn’t just black folks tearing up things, also, alot of the people arrested weren’t from Oakland. More important, there were peaceful organizations that were there that did not and would not recommend that type of response, that were there protesting. Last but not least…. How many of you have seen in the media showing the peaceful protest? I notice here in Oakland, the media showing the riot over and over again. What a way to get the focus off the real issue, wouldn’t you think?
This is not an insult, so please try not to take it as such. To those who have brains, mind or whatever you want to call it. There is not greater SIN than a closed mind and a controlled mind. It is your GOD given rigt to have an open mind and think critically. GOD gifted you with COURAGE… and you have the POWER to use what is yours, Know that! AND stop believing and agreeing to everything the media puts out…. that when your critical thinking comes in!
We are the people of our Sovereignty State and must recognize to excercise our power as one unity forces against tyranny government, state or local organization. For We are far intelligent and spiritual being that move the impossible to be possible by the power of our minds and the blessing of our Heavenly Father Divine Love to Conquer the Challenges WITHIN OUR LIFE. SO PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF OAKLAND UNITY THE MINDS AND THE SPIRITS OF INTELLIGENT TO USE THE MIGHTY SWORD OF A PEN AND DOCUMENTATE LEGAL SOVEREIGNTY GRIEVANCE TO THE INJUSTICE THAT PART TOOK THE INNOCENT OF THE FLESH AND BLOOD, AS WE THE PEOPLE.
DEEPEST SORROW GOES TO OUR HEAVENLY FATHER FOR HAVING HIS LIFE TAKEN AWAY SO CRUEL AND UNJUSTICELY ABUSE FOR LIVING AS ONE OF US THROUGH THE SPIRIT OF HIS SOUL. I SHED A TEAR THAT IS OVERFLOW IN THE CUPS OF SORROW, ANU. RELEASE THE PAIN THAT WE CONTINUE TO SUFFER FOR LIVING YOUR WAYS AND RAIN YOUR TEAR FOR JUSTICE THROUGH YOUR RIGHTOUES EYES. WE LOVE YOU ALWAYS, SO REST WITH PEACE AND TRANSFORM YOUR WAY BACK TO A HOME AWAY FROM HOME. WHERE A BETTER BLESSING PLACE TO BE IN EXISTENCE.
AMON.
May Peace And Blessing Be Upon Us All.
Divinely Within Love To The People Live Strong.

We Are The People And Can’t Rely On The President, Barack Obama To Fill In The Pain Of OUR Suffering, For He Himself Stated That We Are Going To Go Through Harder Time That Fear Will Overcome If We Don’t Work Together And It Will Not BE REVERSIBLE. So With That Said And Told Through The Eyes Of Evil Demonize Auto-Suggestion Media. We Must Critically Act Upon OUR Responsible As A Whole For We Are The People Of The Most High And He Will Always Will Be On OUR SIDE.
SO MOVE WITH THE POSITIVE FORCES WITHIN AND CONVERT THE NEGATIVE ATTRIBUTE WITHIN ALL ACTION OF OUR LIFE.
Peace To The People Of The World
ONE

My heart goes out to the families of youth brother, and to the officer, however I see people going to the streets because of this. Let’s all stop and think for just one second, Why are we doing this! why don’t you go out to the streets to stop all the drug boy’s that selling the weapon of mass destruction i.e Crack,
thats killing peoples minds daily. Let’s all wake up and set our priorities straight.This is not the first nor will it be the last time this may happen, so let’s get to the root. do this to the drug boys out there night and day selling drug to our women, killing our youth and destroying our brothers. So go to the streets for that.
May the Most High The One and only shower you all with light so that you will be guided in the right path.
Peace!
Thank you Oaklands Native
The Week of MLK birthday don’t ride the BART in protest of this officer being brought to justice.
CALLING ALL BAY AREA RESIDENTS THAT FREQUENT THE BART SYSTEM.
DO NOT RIDE THE BART THE WEEK OF JANUARY 19 MLK BIRTHDAY CELEBRATES THE START OF THIS WEEK.
Feliciaca, I for one stopped riding bart Once I saw what happened. For a week now I’ve been sacraficing the long ride on AC Transit in place of bart. I don’t plan to support agencies that don’t hold their employees accountable for such behavior.
What is this, the third time bart’s police has killed, and with the last two they got away with it.
So Joan & Kendra, you’re saying that young man was responsible for his OWN DEATH? I know sometimes people do tupid ishs, but he didn’t need to die for a it? WOW! I agree with Bro. Jay. But we do need to stop tearing up our own communities. They should’ve found that cop & kicked his a$$! AND he quit..GULITY!!
After years of Police bullsh–, they still haven’t leaned a thing. No matter what the situation, a cop should never use his badge as a weapon or threat. And for the cop that shot this young man, he should be tried as if we shot a cop. A crime is a crime and looking at the video it seems to be as a racial statement to others. Why shot him in the back and look happy about it. While the other officers around him where watching and they knew he was going to shot him. Notice the other cop moved before the cop shot him. They had talked about it, walked over to the man, pulled him onto the floor and then shot him.
No matter what color a person is, we need to stop this madness and pull for a better world. Martin Luther king, had a dream, but it seems as we if are messing it up. Rosa parks, fought for our rights, and yet some of us still sit in the back of the bus. Bill Clinton, well u know what he did. But, alot of great people did things so that we can better ourselves and our communities.
Now it’s our time to make history. STOP DA VIOLENCE.
God be with you all………
