The jury will let the South Carolina cop killer go. Video evidence doesn't matter. [View all]

See Rodney King, Eric Garner, Tamir Rice etc....it doesn't matter.

Eric Garner was literally choked to death on camera and the killer cop walked. The person who shot the video actually ended up in jail and he was fed rat poison by the prison officials.

Video evidence is meaningless when the system is all fucked up.

This is why people in other countries laugh when they hear Americans say our country is about liberty and freedom.

Bush had the nerve to say the terrorists hate us for our freedom.

It's bullshit.

This is not a free society, especially if you're black.
