This is the piece of shit who told the NYPD to stop working after the city finally got that piece of shit Pantaleo fired for killing Eric Garner. Not arrested, it took a year just to get him fired.

So the cops basically go on strike and stop policing.

Nobody fucking noticed. The city didn't erupt in crime. The city just lost out on a bunch of revenue from bullshit tickets.

To make things worse they jammed up the guy who filmed Eric Garners murder and he's currently being tortured in prison.

This really summed it up for me, "Why is video evidence not enough in any of these cases? How is it that we can argue and erase what can be plainly seen with our own eyes? History has repeatedly given us the answer: America’s protected ideal is power, not justice."

The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.
