Nope, its not. its only because he is black and Oakland is filled with black people. if it was a black cop it would of been a different story. You heard of the Texas shooting by officer too? it wasn't a big deal there. Haha
Please make a new video and talk about how Oscar Grant was NOT peacefully talking to the female police officer. And please talk about how Oscar Grant attempted to knee Tony in the groin and he deserved that punch. The end.
He deserved to be punched. High on alcohol and fentanyl and a parolee that had committed armed robbbery. Yeah, I am sure that Grant didnt do a damn thing wrong. Your a sheep!
PS Ive lived in Oakland...and everyday on the news there is a story of the cops killing or hurting unarmed people. Only reason Oscar's situation got publicized was cause Oakland RIOTED. Oakland has been holding peaceful protests for years. The bay is home to cop watch...no one hears anything till people raise hell. To Oakland51oo...people dont shoot at cops in Oakland..makes me wonder which Oakland your really from.
You are a damn lie, i watch the news every signle morning before school and when i can, at night at 10 on channel 2 . YOU NEVER see cops attacking and hurting unarmed people. you are BULLSHITTTING. stop making up stories. its more like 'Shooting occurred and cops arrived on scene' not 'COPS WAS SHOOTING' occasionally, you'll see 'Cops involved shooting' Please don't lie buddy.
You're a damned lie, buddy. Just on Dec. 31st of last year in Texas the police shot an unarmed man while he was laying face down in his driveway b/c they couldn't believe that the car he was driving was NOT stolen.
Thankfully it is only this guy's baseball career that is in jeopardy and not his life.
You clearly do not THINK... that's why you keep saying that this is not a big deal.
You act like this is the first time cops shot someone. this is the first time a cop ever ACCIDENTALLY shot someone in the prone position.would you like to explain all the other times where cops had shot someone and every time its a super big deal? are you saying every time a cop shot someone it is in a prone position?
No one is acting as if this is the first time and it certainly is NOT the first time an unarmed person has been shot while 'prone', not a threat, handcuffed or in the back.
Name another time an officer got a gun out and accidently shot someone HAND CUFFED in a PRONE position. and they should show videos of cops getting shot at the news instead of this useless stuff.
If your argument is now that this IS a one-of-a-kind event, it flies in the face of your excoriation that this is not a "big deal" since one-of-a-kind happenstances are by definition a "BIG DEAL!"
Neal, I am a recent subsciriber but must say I love your videos. I watched this mans murder! It made me sick to my stomach. It was 100% preventable. WTF is going on .
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Yikes!! Have you ever heard of due process? Do you really talk like that in 'real life', you've got a lot of work to do on your public speaking, you sound like a child trying hard to sound like a grown up using your 'big boy' words.
looks like he was being violent and talking shi*. looks like the officer had to deal with him earlier but gave him to the female. and YES, if you are a COP and someone don't listen , you can taze or do whats necessary for them to listen. what did you want the officer to do? 'hey grant, i know all your friends in the background are saying 'fu** the police but can you please sit down so i can take you to jail for fighting?' hahaahahahaha be realistic.
because i was thinking realisticly and with all do respect, oscar grant had a bad history record with cops as well? oh yeah, did i mention he use to sell a lot of weed and crack for many years?
Nah, not that. i brought his life styles in it to prove that its not necessary a angel like the news make him seem. the news only says two things about him cause that's all they got. with all do respect, they only say 'Hes a father and he has a daughter' with both means the same thing. i am saying this isn't a big deal because people shoot at cops everyday and just cause occasionally ,one cops make mistakes stop fucking blowing it up on the news. its done and done!!!
Oh yeah, on top of that. he had trouble with the law many times. the most recent one, fighting someone on Bart on new years... others getting pulled over and resisting and fighting with cops including getting tazed. stop making him sound like an angel please. (for the news)
Regardless what this man was or what mistakes he mad...NO ONE has the right...especially a govt entity that we are supposed to trust to protect and serve us, to kill an unarmed man. You sound like...and i hate using this word...a HATER.
First of all, with all do respect, i believe that Oscar kind of brought it on himself. He shouldn't have tried to knee an officer in the groin which where he deserved that lovely punch. He shouldn't have been fighting on bart in the first place. i just brought up his history in addition to make it not seem AS bad. the news just repeats the two positive things about him 'Hes a father and he has a daughter' which both basically mean the same thing. All i am saying that is that this isn't a bigdeal
When those entrusted with the authority to enforce the law shoot unarmed people in the BACK while they are PRONE on their stomach... that is a big deal.
No one is above the law, even those who are supposed to enforce it. In fact, they are held to a higher standard and when they fail to live up to that standard... that is a big deal.
You may not think so, but that is because you obviously lack the ability to think.
Oscar Grant's murder should be the primary issue, but another issue also-is the cops taking peoples cell phones, of which most today have video ability, I have searched and read, cops do not have the authority to confiscate cameras UNLESS they are being used in the commission of a crime, I WILL NOT give up my camera, I know what most will say "they will shoot your ass"- well then they will just have to shoot, if I die, then I die, I'm sick of brutal cops and also of sheeple who bow down to them
with Grant clearly subdued, while the officer that punched him earlier pressed his knee into Grant's back while Grant was handcuffed, there was no need for Johannes Mehserle to draw any weapon; whether it was a taser, pepper spray, or a butter knife. they're only justified alternative was to peacefully transport Grant to the precinct for processing.
Looks like Oscar grant was trying to punk the female officer and the male officer got mad because he wouldn't listen and punched him. i rather be punched one time in the jaw than tazed like a rag doll to be honest with you. Be REAL, if you was a cop and someone didn't listen to you and think hes mr tuff guy and talking shit you and on top of that, you hear people in the background yelling "FU** the police" you would react the same way. The cop did the right thing by punching him
with all due respect, Oakland51oo, if you are verbally arguing with your wife, are you justified in punching her in her face? is she justified in slapping you?
the video does not show Grant touching or attacking the female officer, for when Grant leans over to speak to her, the female officer doesn't budge. if Grant was too close to the female officer and Tony Pirone, the assaulting officer, wanted to protect her, Pirone could have pushed Grant back and ordered him to relax; Grant wasn't violent
this jackass need to shut up and stop making videos. go sell your weed, crack on the street corner and shut the fuck up.

Brother Neal, since when does the handle of a taser even remotely feel like the handle of a glock 9mm.
It amuses me that BART is stating that he mistakenly grabbed his gun thinking that it was his taser.
