Remembering Eric Garner

Four years after NYPD murdered #EricGarner, all that marks his last moments is a solitary teddy bear and no real justice for him or his family.

The Justice Dept. and the NYPD continue to drag its feet in its disciplinary action against Officer Daniel Pantaleo. #RIPEricGarner pic.twitter.com/qcTBqzCEVi

It is utterly disgraceful that NYPD Officer Daniel Pantaleo murdered #EricGarner four FUCKING years ago….ON CAMERA…in broad daylight…in violation of NYPD policy….

And he's still on the force.

It's the single most disgraceful blemish on @NYCMayor's record. https://t.co/0qZIvjdR8s

Today is the 4th anniversary of the police killing of #EricGarner

Here's a transcript of his last words:

I can't breathe.
I can't breathe.
I can't breathe.

Justice for #AntwonRose

Uninformed people would ask "If he did nothing wrong, why was he running?"

To that I say, have you seen what Police Officers do to African Americans in the USA? It doesn't matter to them that you're a child or an adult or even innocent. All they see is Black.
