Thread: Looting After Vigil for Missouri Man

Demonstrators took to the streets of New York City and Washington, DC on Wednesday, protesting the non-indictment of a police officer who killed unarmed African-American man Eric Garner. The 43-year-old father of six was selling loose cigarettes when confronted by the New York City Police Department and placed in a chokehold that ultimately killed him. RT’s Alexey Yaroshevsky is in on the ground in New York while Manuel Rapalo is in Washington.

‘Hell, No!' : Eric Garner’s Wife Doesn’t Accept NYPD’s Apology, Plans to Smoke the Police in Court
By Jennifer Van Laar - 7 hours ago



After a grand jury in New York City declined to press charges against an NYPD officer in the death of Eric Garner, the man’s widow angrily refused to accept the officer’s condolences.

Appearing with Al Sharpton at a press conference in Harlem, Esaw Garner said:

“H-ll no! The time for remorse would have been when my husband was yelling to breathe. That would have been the time to show some type of remorse or some type of care for another human being’s life. When he was screaming eleven times that he can’t breathe.

So there’s nothing for him or his prayers or anything else would make me feel any different. No, I don’t accept his apology. No, I could care less about his condolences.”

Officer Daniel Pantaleo faced possible charges in the July death of Garner. He was suspected of illegally selling cigarettes. Video of the incident appeared to show the officer applying a chokehold, and Garner is heard repeatedly saying, “I can’t breathe.”

Though Pantaleo won’t face criminal charges, he can still face departmental discipline, is facing a federal civil rights investigation, and Mrs. Garner is planning a wrongful death suit against the NYPD for $75 million.

The decision has sparked protests and disagreement from all sides of the political spectrum.

If you are in a "choke hold" ... you can not breathe, much less speak or yell. Records show this guy was already arrested over 30 times, was on bail for three pending cases, and the autopsy showed he died of a heart attack.

Bill O’Reilly Drops 50-Megaton Truth Bomb on Guest Who Claims It’s ‘Hunting Season on Black Men’
By Mike Miller - 7 hours ago



Radio talk show host Tavis Smiley appeared on The O’Reilly Factor on Wednesday to weigh in on a New York grand jury’s refusal to indict police officer Daniel Pantaleo in the death of Eric Garner.

While O’Reilly agreed with Smiley that the death of Garner (who was illegally selling cigarettes on the street at the time of the confrontation) was controversial, they parted ways when Smiley charged that white police officers indiscriminately target blacks.

O’Reilly’s response? Facts and statistics. http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2014...ng-statistics/

Smiley: “There is no respect for the humanity and the dignity for black life in this country.”

O’Reilly: “Do you know how many blacks were killed by police by gunfire last year?”

Smiley: “Off the top of my head, I don’t.” (Which begs the question, on what basis did he make the charge?)

O’Reilly: “The number is 123. Do you know how many whites were killed? 326. There are 43 million-plus black Americans — 123 were killed by police gunfire. There isn’t an epidemic of this. … But when it happens it’s extremely troubling.”

Regardless of the facts, Smiley persisted, saying it’s “open season, hunting season” on blacks. Speaking of facts, here are a few more: http://weaselzippers.us/207055-note-...blacks-killed/

•Police killings of blacks are down 70% in last 50 years
•In 2013, blacks committed 5,375 murders
•In 2013, whites committed 4,396 murders
•Whites are 63% of the population, blacks are 13%

Also, from 1980 through 2008, 93% of black murders were committed by other blacks. And while blacks constitute 13% of the population, they committed 49% of total murders for the same period. http://www.suntimes.com/news/fountai...l#.VIBctzHF_3c

Following the shooting death of Michael Brown by Officer Darren Wilson, signs proclaiming “black lives matter” have been prominent at protests across the country. Where are those same signs in the streets of Chicago?

The Entire ‘Racism’ Narrative in the Eric Garner Case is Destroyed By One Fact That Changes Everything

“Racist White cops” “Black Lives Matter”

#CrimingWhileWhite #AliveWhileBlack

December 4, 2014 by Jason DeWitt



For two nights we have once agains seen the Media-Democrat-Activist complex explode about “RACISM” after a Grand Jury refused to indict NYPD officer Daniel Pantaleo for choking out Eric Garner, who later died from heart complications.

As with Ferguson, dozens of media pundits weighed in on race. President Obama declared the justice system “unequal,” and Attorney General Eric Holder pounced on the case as one motivated by race and worthy of “civil rights” prosecution.

New York Mayor Bill DeBlasio even declared that “hundreds of years of racism have led to this,” and angrily told how he instructed his own Black son to “act differently around police”.

Twitter hashtags quickly went viral – internationally – expressing the supposed racist nature of the officer’s action, including #CrimingWhileWhite, #AliveWhileBlack, and #BlackLivesMatter.

There’s only one problem with this racial narrative: it is utterly destroyed by a key piece of information that the Grand Jury knew — but the media would not reveal.

As reported by the New York Daily News: http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/...icle-1.2032435



Pantaleo who applied the lethal chokehold on Eric Garner was supervised by an African-American female NYPD sergeant.

….

“Having that Black sergeant in charge of that crime scene takes race out of the equation. As awful as Pantaleo’s actions appear on that video, at no time does that Black sergeant order Pantaleo to stop choking Garner.”

Whoa. Let that sink in for a moment. There’s more. From Kristinn Taylor: http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/



The Black female police sergeant who was in charge of the arrest is not shown in the countless TV replays in the media of cellphone footage that showed White male police officers confronting and taking down Garner but she is said to be seen in the original video (the Grand Jury saw).

Why haven’t we seen that unedited video in the countless media showings? Can you guess?

From a police report reported by PIX11 in July, the sergeant’s name is revealed to be Kizzy Adoni. http://pix11.com/2014/07/31/exclusiv...eos-witnesses/


“The female sergeant, Kizzy Adoni, made a similar statement in the report. She “believed she heard” Garner say he was having difficulty breathing. Adoni also said “The perpetrator’s condition did not seem serious and he did not appear to get worse.”

Unbelievable.

The national media’s rush to push its divisive racial agenda has once again blown up in their collective faces. Just like it did with the Duke Lacrosse case. And the Trayvon Martin case. And the Ferguson case. And now, the Eric Garner case.

Call it excessive force. Call it involuntary manslaughter. Call it justified force against a resisting suspect who had 31 prior arrests, who died from his substantial health problems rather than a chokehold. These are all legitimate arguments to bring to the table for discussion.

But not race. This case has nothing to do with it. And the continued media-Democrat focus on it is clear political manipulation to distract from Obama’s recent shellacking in the midterm elections and deeply unpopular executive action amnesty for illegal aliens.

And I find it interesting that the media isn’t asking this question: why was Eric Garner even bothered to begin with? Why did Pantaleo’s Black female supervisor decide to arrest Garner for the nonsensical “crime” of selling cigarettes on the street?

Because New York City has the highest taxes on cigarettes in the world. And Because the same Bill DeBlasio who hysterically blamed racism for Garner’s death himself has dramatically ramped up enforcement of such petty crimes in order to increase taxes, while cancelling the successful “stop and frisk” program that reduced crime to record low levels in the decimated Black communities.

Those cops were there harassing Garner because of Democrat tax greed, not because he was Black. Where is the outrage over that?

UPDATE: Radio host Mark Levin confirmed this story, and discussed this matter in an excellent commentary tonight:

Berkeley Protester With a ‘Stop Killing Black Men’ T-Shirt Knocked Out with a Hammer

By Brian Hayes on December 10, 2014

"Peaceful protest!”

That’s what people were chanting in Berkeley, California last night during the ubiquitous Mike Brown/Eric Garner anti-police rally/riot.

But it sure didn’t turn out that way for one local White liberal. An “elderly man” wearing a ‘Stop Killing Black Men‘ t-shirt was knocked out with a hammer as he tried to persuade a Black mob of looters to abort their smash and grab at the Berkeley Radio Shack.

Silly hippie, “protests” are for looting.



You can hear the ironic chanting as he is assaulted and knocked unconscious. He was treated at the scene and is now hospitalized in uncertain condition.



My FOX LA reported: http://www.myfoxla.com/story/2756702...r-unruly-night

Sunday’s protest began peacefully on the University of California, Berkeley campus. But as protesters marched through downtown Berkeley toward the neighboring city of Oakland, someone smashed the window of a Radio Shack. When a protester tried to stop the vandalism, he was hit with a hammer, Officer Jennifer Coats said.

Some of the protesters made their way to a freeway in Oakland and blocked traffic. The California Highway Patrol said some tried to light a patrol vehicle on fire and threw rocks, bottles and an explosive at officers. Highway patrol officers responded with tear gas.

corey @oncontour

an elderly man was struck in the head w/ a hammer tonight by a smashy kid.
this is a crisis of ethics in protest. I am beyond disillusioned.

Crisis of ethics? Did he not see Ferguson, and the endless liberal justification for looting, rioting and arson? http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/..._violence.html



The poor Berkeley liberal learned the hard way that the true mob behind these protests wants nothing to do with the rule of law, but want revolution instead.

What the PTB want is an excuse to declare "Martial Law". Currently the Commander in Chief has began the downsizing and disemboweling of our Military. He is also well orchestrating the war on Law Enforcement. If you don't see what is happening, you are behind the curve.
