ALL OF THE OFFICERS IN THE ERIC GARNER CASE SHOULD HAVE BEEN INDICTED [View all]

Each and every one of those officers heard Eric Garner say he could not breathe.

No one got off his back.

No one instructed the choking officer to stop.

This is just another case of white authorities sweeping another police homicide of a minority under the rug. Six officers and one unarmed civilian; no confidence they can get an arrest without violence. Shear panic over who controls the situation.

If I was ANY one of those officers, I would not sleep for the rest of my life knowing I had contributed to the death of an unarmed human being.
