Yea i had to re-watch the video because i forgot which incident this was..So sad, and the officer already served his time (including time served) and out on parole or probation...That could've been my brother.

Wow. I remember the name but the incident for some reason I forgot. For some reason I got Oscar Grant and Sean Bell mixed up somehow. Just watched the footage on Youtube and my blood is boiling right now. I agree with the brehs who posted above, one of the many reasons I could never do the interracial thing is because I know their viewpoint would be completely different from mine when it came to black affairs. Flick looks good though, just imagine if this happened in the early 90s. :wow:

Don't get it fukked up tho, Oakland definitely got out the house and made noise. I think I remember some incidents coming close to riot. I was proud when I heard that Oakland wasn't gonna "Koombaya" the situation away.

I'm surprised that many of you don't remember this...but then again I am not surprised the media suppresses (ignores) stories like this.

EDIT: Footage of the shooting

Sht got me in tears breh....i was a few miles away at home in the bay celebrating nyears too. That pig shot my man in cold blood. Handcuffed. Faced down. Never saw justice. The kaks cried over some fckin dogs with vick, yet this didnt receive a fraction of the coverage it should have. Ironic too, cause grant was shot like a dog.

Movie looks amazing. So thankful they are re-telling this story and giving grants life the dignified attention it deserves. Man no human being should ever have to go out like that.

Speaking of that thread about how happy bunnies make all brothas....i was fckin with a bunny at the time, so im onthe phone with her distraught over the murder....she was like :beli: ..".u guys think about race too much. What about the officer and his family? Imagine what the're going thru...anyway, lets get sushi!"

:russ:

Exactly why I stopped dating white women.

This is why I can never be in an interracial relationship. I can be friends with her or we can be friends with benefits but we can never be a couple.

I hope the p*ssy was good at least.



He got like 2 yrs. I remember it like it was yesterday, the verdict came out the same day LeBron announced that he was going to Miami. I was thinking that it was bullshyt how every TV channel talked about that and barely a peep about how the cop killed a handcuffed man on camera and was getting off with a slap on the wrist.

Seriously, people get more than 2 years for domestic violence and this pig committed cold blooded murder...:pacspit:

He only did 10 months of the 2 year sentence.

Man that video still angers me... One of the only reasons I was :manny: when Andre Patton went in on those cops with the assault rifle...

Patton, you mean that MIXON kid? But yea, that was insane, what's even more ridiculous is how BLACK PEOPLE KILL EACH OTHER and there is never this type of civic response, outrage, etc. The night the RIOTS began, TWO BLACK MEN were MURDERED in Oakland, not one community response. Fukk that PIG that shot Oscar but I give them fake niccas DOUBLE MIDDLES for not valuing BLACK LIFE unless a WHITE COP is involved.
