shits going down in oakland

[Alkasquawlik]

RIP Oscar Grant. The way I see it, that coulda been me if I was darker and regularly rode bart or some other public transportation. Meserle deserves life in jail without parole and they should house him with the rest of the inmates and not in his own private cell for "his protection" let his ass face what the rest of us would. I do not agree with the rioting in oakland though, it has close to nothing to do with oakland. But oakland has a mess of other problems...

STFU.

The dude resisted arrest. If he had just lain there and taken stuff up with the courts after the incident, the guy would never have been shot. But he decided to roll around like a drunken monkey and resist arrest. Actions have consequences, and in no way I am imp[lying that resisting arrest means you should get shot, but don't do dumb things and dumb things won't happen to you.

I don't know the whole story but apparently some fight broke out between him & his friends and a group of other guys on a bart train. All suspects were held down and handcuffed, nobody had any weapons or drugs in their possession. And apparently heresay is that another cop was calling Grant a "bitch ass nigga" multiple times you can hear the recording from someones phone saying "you ain't nothing but a bitch ass nigga" more than once.
I just heard today that one of the deceased friends or maybe even the deceased, I don't know, was asking for the bart police to call on the real police, cop says we are the police, suspect says your a rent a cop, blah blah blah

What I'm getting at is that a police officer has no reason to shoot, and they are not authorized to use a tazer unless they feel their life is in danger, ex: shootout or guy with a machete rushing him. These guys were on the ground unarmed in handcuffs, in a helpless position, cop shoots him, says he thought he pulled out his taser, gets involuntary manslaughter, not murder 1.

oh and I was implying if I put a beany on and grow my beard a little I could be categorized by the police as a bitch ass beaner or whatever and if i was black I'd be that bitch ass nigga that got shot by a cop who walked too

Are you implying that he wasn't doing anything to garner the attention of law enforcement and subsequently be arrested only because he was black and used public transportation?

Was him getting shot BS? Definitely seems that way.

It's all black people rioting.
So funny.

For some reason there's several British people there. I don't know why, but I was watching the news and it was like BBC + BET!

P.s. My coment about Footlocker was more about them being in the gheto not being black.

Tearing down their own city, yet it's always whitey/society keeping them down.

IF you want some entertainment while at work, go to www.radioreference.com you can listen to streaming police scanners from Alameda county and the surrounding PD's and such. They have archives, so I think you could look up last night and listen to the shit go down.

I'm listening to SDPD right now, and there's a naked man in the Albertsons meat section. Go figure.

I was helping my sister move from Oakland to Berkeley around 6 or so and there were a couple of shady acts going on. There were sirens and helicopter noises EVERYWHERE. It was pretty crazy.
