Ex-Officer Charged in Oakland Killing of Unarmed Black Passenger

A former transit officer in Oakland California has been arrested on murder charges in connection to the killing of Oscar Grant, an unarmed African-American man who was shot dead while he was lying face down on the ground on the train platform. The shooting gained international attention after cellphone videos of the killing were posted on YouTube by train passengers. The killing sparked a series of protests in what has been described by some as the Oakland rebellion.

  • We demand that the "PEACE" officers that failed to protect OSCAR GRANT, and were present at the execution of OSCAR GRANT, and watched the execution of OSCAR GRANT, also be tried as conspiracy to commit murder.

    For years CITIZENS have been terrorized by police brutality.

    AMERICAN CITIZENS have been lynched.

    Again, we demand JUSTICE.

    We do not fear repercussion for our civil protest.

    Ghandi and Martin Luther King Jr advocated nonviolence.

    Our Civil DISOBEDIANCE is our DUTY, and it is our RIGHT.
