If you aren't aware of what took place on the night of Jan 1 in Oakland, here's a brief clip from the Fruitvale BART station.  This video is graphic and contains profanity.

..

It is now well known that the officer who did the shooting is named Johannes Mehserle.  It is also known that he was allowed to travel to a home in Nevada.  The second year officer resigned from BART police days after the shooting, just as BART officials were going to force him to make a statement.

Today, almost 2 weeks after the execution style slaying of Oscar Grant III, Mehserle was finally brought in on charges.  Needless to say, there has been significant unrest in Oakland while the people awaited action.

I'll be following this story as it unfolds, and hopefully you will too.

Keep us abreast because you know I can't find this story no where down here in So Cal...

I was involved last October in something that had a really bad outcome with police altercation it was handled horrendously and the young man they shot is still in the Hospital (smh)

When i was in New York about this time last year, I had a long conversation with my cousin Jason who is a cop about why I and many other people dont trust cops. I know not all cops are asshole, fuckheads, with mountain sized chips on their shoulders who are allowed to carry guns and tell us regular folk what to do. But, since I cant tell them apart I proceed with caution when in the company of any of them.
