So this was a very tragic story that happened here and my heart goes out to this man’s family. Sean Bell was killed on the day he was supposed to be married just after leaving his bachelor party by a bunch of trigger-happy police officers. If you haven’t read the FULL STORY on this then please do before you continue reading what I have to say here. These cops were cleared on all charges not because of race but because old Al Sharpton tried to make you “believe” that this was a racial issue. Two of the officers involved in the shooting of a black man were also black, so how the fuck can anyone say this was a racial thing?
If you cannot see what Al Sharpton’s involvement in this case had on the outcome then you are fucking blind! If he would have stayed the fuck out of this whole thing these bastard cops might have at least gotten some type of charge filed against them, which would be better than letting them go. But no, Reverend Al had to stick his damn nose where it didn’t belong again and fuck this whole thing up. The prosecutors buckled under Sharpton and decided to go with the angle of intent, which basically means these cops started their shift with the intent to kill someone. I don’t think that is true at all even though I believe the police were wrong here. If the prosecutors would have been smart with this, instead of following what Al says, then they would have gone with a criminal negligence charge or indifferent homicide. Sure that would mean less jail time for these pigs but at least they would have been handed some type of punishment.
It just pisses me off that every time something like this happens the race card is always pulled. This was about “power of authority” by asshole cops who felt the need to shoot a group of unarmed men. If we stop trying to say shit like this is racial all the fucking time maybe we can get the real facts in order and actually prosecute assholes like these guys. When are we going to realize that some cops are just plain dicks and will fuck with you because they can, not because of your color? I have been harassed by the police plenty of times in my day, and I’m white! Face it some cops have this “ego” that they are better than everyone else and think that because they have a badge they can do whatever that want. We need to make an example out of bad cops like these every time they fuck up in hopes that the rest of them will do what they are supposed to do, protect and serve not pick and choose.
