With past events occurring in both Ferguson and New York itself, several thoughts have popped up in my head. The fact that the lack of footage was the problem with the case in Ferguson still did not make the results okay. Police have gotten away with excess force on black males for far too long. After the fact that the case in New York had clear camera footage of the NYPD officer choking the man to death and the cop still gets away with no trial makes no sense whatsoever to me. Moreover I think that certain people’s reaction to these events is what has shocked me more. People asking that why are people protesting. It just makes me feel that certain people are so ignorant to the facts.
