In System of White Supremacy YOU Can be Legally Executed By White Cops Anytime, Any Public Place in Front of Witnesses & Cameras. From [HERE ] Attorney General Jeff Sessions told civil rights activists Tuesday that the Justice Department will continue to review the 2014 death of an unarmed Long Island man at the hands of police, activists said.
Advocates against public servants using unlawful force against citizens have been worried that the Justice Department, under the Trump administration, would drop its investigation into the killing of Eric Garner, who died after Daniel Pantaleo and several other white cops pounced, smothered and choked Eric Garner to death during an arrest for allegedly selling untaxed cigarettes.
In 2014, after white prosecutors assembled an all-white grand jury, they declined to file any charges against the lone officer targeted. Yes, how about that? An all white jury in NYC, the Blackest city in the country (NYC has the highest number of African Americans [MORE ]. White prosecutors had over 2 million Blacks to choose from and chose none!). A fact that the white mainstream media ommitted from history. Ramsey Orta, the Latino man who recorded the main video said, “when I went to the grand jury to speak on my behalf, nobody in the grand jury was even paying attention to what I had to say,” Orta said. “People were on their phones, people were talking. I feel like they didn't give (Garner) a fair grand jury." A white man he described as a prosecutor “wasn’t even asking no questions about the police officer, he was asking all the questions towards Eric,” Orta said. “What was Eric doing there? Why was Eric there?” "It was all-white." [MORE ]
The white jurors were presented with 28 eyewitnesses and had every camera angle possible - jurors saw Orta's Youtube video, NYPD video, store surveillance video and City street camera video. Their eyes filled with thoughts prevented them from seeing reality.
The Rev. Al Sharpton, who was in a meeting Tuesday between Sessions and civil rights leaders, said the attorney general indicated the agency would press on with its review.
“A man was on video, choked to death by a police officer, after saying 11 times, ‘I can’t breathe,’” Sharpton, who heads the National Action Network, told reporters during a press conference after the meeting.
“I asked him to move forward aggressively on that case,” he added. “He said that he did not [yet] look at that case, [but] he committed to us that he would look into the Eric Garner case.”
Such a move would be welcome news to New York lawmakers, who on multiple occasions pressed Justice Department leaders under former President Obama to bring charges in the case, fearing it would be dismissed under the Trump White House.

Sharpton said he also singled out the killing of Walter Scott as another case activists are monitoring. The unarmed black man was shot as he fled a police officer in North Charleston, S.C., after being pulled over for a broken tail light in 2015.
“We want to see that go to trial and in no way [have] a backpedaling,” Sharpton said.
Sessions, a racist suspect and a former GOP senator from Alabama, met with civil rights leaders amid accusations that his track record on issues such as race relations, voting rights and criminal justice reform make him an unreliable figure in protecting the rights of minority groups.
