  • Two wrongs DONT make a RIGHT!

    Grant was nervous, scared, & confused. Any human would, if one was laying face down like an animal with people yelling.

    Cops are suppose to do their job, DETAIIN & CONTROL!

    That "officer" did DETAIN grant, but he wasnt in CONTROL!

    What kind of "THREAT" can a man laying down handcuffed pose?

    What that OFFICER did was MURDER a DETAINED man Execution STYLE!

    This is WRONG.

    That is clearly murder.

    The "Officer" did not do his job, NO IF'S, AND'S, OR BUT'S

  • he didnt do it intentional cops are trained to shot teice using the real gun n the tazer was on the same side as the gun he was struggleing with the guy and couldnt define wich was wich. so it wasnt intentional....

  • fuck police ever day,ever hour,ever minute,ever second,motherfuckersssssssssss­ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss­ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss­ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss­ssss

  • I'm not trying to defend the cop's actions, but I think it was accidental. After the shot, the cop stands more upright and looks at the other cop, then looks down as if to look at his weapon (or the victim) and looks at the other cop. His body language suggests dismay at what has just happened, as if to say "oh shit."

    Nevertheless, the more important issue is that he should NOT have drawn his weapon and this would have NEVER happened.

  • @skyferret1 u pay taxes not only for police work but also for police training. "oh shit" is in-excusable.

  • @skyferret1 There is no way to defend the cops actions, they are indefensible. He deserves prison time in my opinion, for criminally negligent homicide. But you are correct, this was not a murder. He grabbed the wrong weapon when he meant to tase Grant, the same thing has happened at least 8 times before. And not to shift blame, but if Grant had not fought on the train, assaulted 2 officers, and resisted arrest, this also would have never happened. Just sayin'

  • @ssn708 "Grabbed the wrong weapon?" He grabbed his sidearm instead of his taser? I never put any thought into cops reaching for the wrong weapon, but wow, that's fucked up. Sidearm on one side, taser on the other, but I guess the unfortunate truth of this matter is that the heat of the moment obscured his thought process. But this happening 8 times before; that's even more fucked up.

  • @skyferret1 It is. You would think there would be a better way to make 100% sure that didn't happen. Mehserle had an M26 which has a black rubberized handle, Dominici had a model that was solid yellow and curved handle. Why 2 different models, one resembling the look and feel of a gun handle? Sounds negligent. Mehserle never looked (there is a vid I just found that show perfectly his eyes never went to his weapon) and he damn well should have.

  • @skyferret1 What is even more fucked up, none of those 8 cops were ever charged with anything, much less convicted. It is negligent no matter who the victim is, to not verify your weapon. Life and death is about as important as shit gets!

  • timbits222 is totally UNBELIEVABLE also check it out here on youtube timbits222 has petitions on care2 as well that you really should consider signing ! (if you ever want to see real justice)! SEE IT BELIEVE IT getting killer cops busted part 2 will be out soon! timbits222 on youtube!

  • and why the freaking post? We all add too the violence including me just by responding but clear you're heads and think about what happened. No exscuse for what he did however it wasn't on purpose. You hurt everyone by rioting except the person who caused it. You feel you want justice, Pressure the issue through our system, Everyday a black/white person dies in the streets and I dont see you posting that up. Freedom of speech is a bitch when ignorant people talk.

  • You know, It was an accident clearly even by the expression on his face. We all need start thinking about what we are doing. If this was you and it was an accident you would be yelling for a lower sentence. He has to live with this mistake for the rest of his life just like the other family has to live with this accident. He's going to suffer, and justice was given because it wasn't on purpose. Guaranteed he would have got the chair if it was different. People just want a reason to riot.

  • wtf!?

  • This ex-cop is going to prison for a long time. Don't let the failings of one bad cop tarnish the reputations of the good ones.

  • The cop did a mistake and thought he was using his taser. So many blacks are so out of control who can blame the guy for this killing.

  • @MikeinWB Mistake? Dude, a four-year old little girl lost her father that night and it didn't have to happen. I don't care if it was a mistake or not. The cop needs to go to prison for a very long time. No one is going to bring back that innocent man who didn't have to die that night.

  • @MikeinWB tasers are bright yellow you fuckwitt how could he mistake a black gun for his taser..

  • @jusfuknwidya

    1) Mehserle had an M26 taser, which actually has a black rubberized handle and looks and feels very much like the handle to his sig sauer .40 In my opinion, ALL police should have the fully yellow, curved handle variety that officer Dominici (the female) had.

    2) At no point did he actually look at his weapon. There is a really good video with a tight shot on his face the whole time. He never looks. Criminally negligent.

    3) Panic, just like hitting the gas instead of the brake.

  • thank god someone is getting rid of these people. All of you anti-racists have no idea about what your talking about. People wouldn't hate minorities if they did't have a reason to! Can you not look at a black person and tell that they are stupid, ugly, and completely fucking worthless? I am tired of being forced to listen to all this anti- racist bullshit! This country was founded by good white men, not fucking niggers!! Why do you think they were the ones picking cotton?? it wasn't by mistake!

  • BOY U R 1 WORTHLESS FUCK.I'm white and this cop is a KILLER-period-u racist piece of shit low life fuck.

  • You're actually too ignorant to respond too..

  • @remy10101

    I support a very controversial but very developed theory - a theory that has enough facts to support it that it at least should not be written off as ignorant. If you want to label me and call me names, at least use an accurate one.

    By the way, I took a while to respond to your insult because I have better things to do than spend all my time on youtube.

  • damn kill all white cops!

  • Wait...? WTF he was handcuffed no? That cop was gonna taser a handcuffed kid. Hmm? lets review: the kid is on his stomach, handcuffed with two adults males on his back and needs to be tasered? Even if he wasn't shot with the handgun and was only tasered tha'ts still pretty fucked up and seems way too aggressive for the situation we all just saw.

  • @RasJeremiah NO, he was NOT handcuffed, actually. Had he allowed himself to be handcuffed, we wouldn't be having this discussion. And no, there were not 2 adult males on his back. The second, Pirone, was trying to assist while also restraining the man to Grants left (our right). Tasing Grant would have been 100% appropriate. Grant had assaulted 2 officers, was resisting arrest, and the situation on the platform was out of control with people encroaching on (3 of whom ASSAULTED) officers.

  • Now how the fuck do you confuse your taser gun with your handgun? Weights difference, grip feels different, ones plastic and other is made of metal. When you fire a handgun of any kind don't ya usually extend your arm, take aim and then fire. That cop didn't do any of that. Why would even need to taser him? Whats he gonna do headbutt 4 cops and a break for it? So what if he was mouthing off to cop, a crack in the ribs with a billyclub will knock the wind outta ur lungs and he'd stop. Senseless

  • @RasJeremiah The weight difference is a few ounces. Hardly noticeable in a real world scenario, and especially when panicked. How does one confuse the gas and brake pedal? Happens dozens of times a year. Panic. Both the M26 and his gun had nearly identical black rubberized handles, and there is a good video that shows he never once looked at the actual weapon. Why tase? The situation was completely out of control, and Grant was reaching under his body and could have had a weapon.

  • LOL minus NIGGER MUAHHAHAHA

  • well it good to know that, that cop who killed him got life in pound in the ass prision.

  • OMFG ... that is so fucked up .... WTF ???

  • the race war has begun!!!! rawrrrrr

  • i can not believe this

  • this guy should get the same execution as that poor boy hopefully someone will tag him one day

  • im glad they killed that nigger fuck... another worthless piece of shit off the streets... the cops should have unloaded on the winners in the train too... fuckin idiots...

  • your grandma bitch

  • FUCK U SUCK AN AIDS DICK BITCH

  • fucking dick riding racist prick

    p.s.

    its spelled whiners you loser

  • Fuck The Poice!!!!!! Suck all cops My Dick!!!

    Fuck Sucker´s...

  • Execution. Straight up

  • this shit was no accident.......you could see right there he takes it straight out of his gun pocket......

    i hope he goes to hell...that was f#*#*d up man..

  • this is the biggest peice of bullshit in the world..i did a report on racist cops and i got a 4 page papper about this in my research..this needs to stop its happening to much theres many more incodents like this(donavan jackson shot comming out of his home and police fired 50...50...50 come on now 50 times at him)

  • is this the real video of the guy they killed? "Oscar Grant"

  • yes

  • thats some bullSHIT!

  • For the person that said" i just found out that johannes accidently shot oscar and the bullet went through his back came up again and went through his lungs . I THINK.!!

    basically it was an accident.!!" THE GUN STILL WAS DRAWN WITH HIS FINGER ON THE TRIGGER......UMMMM NO ACCIDENT.

  • let me just say this my father was in law enforcement for over 20 years and was appalled by this scene. everyday theres a new video of cops going beserk. they cant be allowed to cry mistake when they take a life as easily as making a cup of coffee.if that were a regular person it would be murder period.

  • i just found out that johannes accidently shot oscar and the bullet went through his back came up again and went through his lungs . I THINK.!!

    basically it was an accident.!!

    but now johannes resigned and was charged with murder.!

  • All I've found was he was being investigated for a fight. The police wouldn't have had any reason to wrestle him to the ground like that if he wasn't resisting arrest. Fighting can lead to unexpected consequences, and people need to stop judging the police officer just because the kid was black.

  • wake the fuck up he was handcuffed.its not enough they shot him they then toss him around like a piece of trash.cops should be held accountible for actions like these not protected.and you wonder why we need guns to protect ourselves from monsters like this

  • @denandcin Another person spreading the lie that Oscar Grant was handcuffed. That's like 3 or 4 on this board alone.

  • Comment removed

  • @TheSevenmind I am certainly not a cop, but I am glad you have stopped talking to me. I can only take so much poor grammar and lack of intellect.

  • You are trying to justify murder because the cops had him handcuffed and detained on the floor, so how was he posing a threat to anybody? They killed him in cold blood execution style and too many close-minded people are quick to assume that police officers are all good people who are just trying to protect the communities when in actuality cops have a history of brutality, racial profiling and murder.

  • I AGREE U SAID IT ALL THANK U VERY MUCH!

  • @barrioslim ANOTHER person lying and saying Grant was handcuffed. So much info out there, but people don't bother to do a single bit of research. He was a threat because he was resisting, put his hands under his body where he could have had a weapon, and was keeping officers from grabbing his hands. 7-8 people were encroaching on officers, and 3 of those people assaulted officers on the platform. Absolutely Grant was a risk, and had to be restrained because all hell was breaking loose.

  • And no, I am not merely referring to this incident because this is not the first nor will it be the last time that police have killed someone who posed no threat and then claimed it was either accidental or their lives were in danger.

  • I think I have to side with the police on this one. I doubt very much that officer would intentionally kill him in front of all those people, that would be stupid. And it was new years day, Oscar Grant probably was being belligerent and causing trouble and deserved to be arrested - I can't find any sources that say why he was being arrested in the first place, and people felt sorry for Rodney King without any background knowledge on that case either.

  • Omfg i cried when the cop shot him.!!

    feel so bad for the guy that got shot.!!

    i cant stop watching this.!!

  • so as this nigga sed watch out for each other everyone of u mutha fuckers who watch this must help ea other so if i see ya asses gettin arrested ima run up n hit him in his shit pick yo ass up n run nigga run

  • fuckin pussys standing there watching!! if i was there right after that shot i wouldve rushed those cops and threw them over that edge.

  • Very entertaining give more blood please... must feed on violence yyyyeeeessssss.

  • motherfucker

  • thanks for sharing your different point of views!

    I have one more thing to say.

    I agree in many points and do not tolerate violence in any form.

    In america we have to start watching out for each other again,

    we have to learn that we are one people and to get there many things

    must be clear for us to go on, and we must have to learn what dicipline is

    on every level of power and life

  • then we will be able to get out of the mess we are stuck in to improve our country so we can look back one day and be proud that we saved our country

    greetz respect one

  • yeah thats the big thing at the moment

    he did not want to shot him he just wanted to dicipline him and accidentally shot him.

    do those e pistoles have the same weight and the same trigger like a real gun well then the manufactor should be sued for making it feel like a gun so somebody can accidentally mistake it with a gun??

    maybe all cops should not have any real bullets anymore in fact the whole usa!

    only seel ruber bullets then something like this never will happen again.

  • I believe that tasers and other e pistols are usually bright yellow for a warning, however, I think they have the same grip and weight as a normal pistol. If cops had rubber bullets, then (I don't want to sound like George Bush), but terrorism would be a high possibility.

  • It's true that the government protecting the cop is indeed a disturbing thing, but think about it this way. Let's say we let him go to the crowds for an honest(?) mistake, and let him die. Would that be truly a good image for the government if they just abandoned one of their own? Other nations would begin to distrust the government and such. And like my earlier argument, some cops are bad but then again some demonstrators are bad too. The ones that hurt and kill are no better than the cop

  • I agree!

  • You all act like this shooting was intentional but the cop's gun went off while he was trying to cuff the suspect. Sure he should have holstered his weapon first. But you all act like cops are the bad guys. Sure some are crooked but just a small fraction of them are. Cops are people too and there jobs can be very stressful and they can get nervous too then you have abunch of people yelling and swearing at them. If these kids would have just let them do there job then this wouldn't have happened.

  • So your a cop! ;=)

  • So one question!

    The kid was on the floor with his belly down,right?

    Maybe he said something like Asshole or maybe just racist!

    Would that be a reason to kill someone?

    Maybe a fine or something like that but its not a reason to take a life!

    Besides that black should be treated like crimminals in your head what about real crimminals people that steal goverment money and turn it into profit..

  • and Im not taking about 5 to 10 dollars I am taking about billions and billions and trillions of dollars?

    Is that ok?

    do people like that get killed or go to jail?

    no they become TIMES MAN OF THE YEAR and stuff like that so tell me!!!!

    how should I understand this all!

    BLACKS/LATINOS/INDIANS are the scapegoats

    and the real crimminals are hereos..

    do I understand you righT?

  • While I do agree with your reasoning, there are several things I would like to point out. One is that the suspect was indeed struggling. Though this doesn't give the police officer a viable reason to shoot him, it does give him the right to taser him if the struggling man escapes. I understand that if you're a police officer then yes you should understand that gun on right taser on left. Nonetheless it was an honest mistake and the man had started a fight. I'm not a cop by the way

  • Another thing I would like to talk about is life itself. So what if those people who steal government money and turn it into profit get onto Times magazine, so what? nobody cares about them, and when somebody cares, it's because of a political scandal or something. While it is true that there is a lot of prejudice against blacks, latinos, and Indians, unless somebody does something we can't stop it. If YOU can do something, then we can make a difference. Perhaps we can have true peace quicker.

  • I and many other people are doing something

    then only we THE PEOPLE can change something no one else!

    And thats why stuff like must be seen by the whole world then it has not happend the first time and since the world is watching something is slowly starting and because I am no dicatator or something like that thats what people like I do!

    show what happens to the world!

    see everyday people die because of wrong things and no one cares but show it in there face everyone goes crazy!

  • That is true about how people couldn't care less about anything else like the war in Iraq and people dying gruesomely in third world countries. However, is responding to this act of crime with violence really justified? I am not saying that it is you or any of your friends that are in the riots however, responding with violence will just give the police more reason to use more force. Not all cops are bad, then again not all minority races are bad either. We're just people

  • Shhhhhh....I'm undercover.

  • All the officers who didn't pull their guns and arrest that officer...need to be held as accessories to murder.

  • Grow up douchebag.

  • That's murder.

  • stupid doesn't even begin to describe you

  • mac616...what goes around comes around.

  • You have lost. How does it feel to be such a loser? A loser and an idiot too, Martin Luther started the Reformation not the Civil Rights movement. Anyway god willing there is a bullet with your name on it. Better still there is a full life of poverty and ignorance and failure.

  • uhm ... you cant be a 22 year old "teenager" ... maybe 22 year old man???
