My City By The Bay

While 22 year old Oscar Grant was buried today leaving behind a 4 year old daughter, the cop who shot and killed him resigned the police department on the advice of his attorney which means he does not have to talk with authorities.  So, not only is he a murderer but a cowardice murderer.  New video surfaced which clearly shows Grant sitting with his back against the wall when the cop pushed him to the ground on his stomach and 26 seconds later shot and killed him.  Some are saying that the cop had maybe thought he had pulled a taser on him rather than his gun.  THAT’S NO EXCUSE.  Grant was sitting on the ground  with no reason to be tased let alone shot in the back and killed.

There were demonstrations at the Fruitvale BART station were Oscar Grant was murdered today and as a result the BART trains were stopped for a short period of time.  This is a volatile situation and will remain as such until this cop pays for what he’s done.  

I will keep you all updated on a regular basis.
