John Crawford was shot and killed by the Beavercreek, Ohio Police while shopping at Walmart August 5 th. Mr. Crawford was holding a pellet gun which was on a display store shelf, standing alone, relaxed in the pet aisle and talking on his cell phone . Only one 911 call was made where the caller claimed him to be an active shooter.....he was not and was shot on site.
Now, no link yet but I just heard on WHIO-TV that the Group Anonymous has asked that the Beavercreek PD fire shooter officer Sean Williams, give a public apology and something else...Oh, bring charges against 911 caller, Ron Richie. Anonymous said if they do not comply, they will hack their computer and release information. The Grand jury did NOT find for indictment of the officers.
I say...ya got to do what ya got to do.
Hey, I found this link with Google.

The legal observers and live streamers must be doing a good job because those arrested have been getting out quickly.
And thanks to the live streamers they should all get exonerated too.

(12,769 posts)It is simply building. There have been many in between and it may take even more, But, the final straw will come if legislatures don't do something quickly.
STOP killing our kids; STOP jailing our kids; STOP privatizing prisons and other public services; STOP taking our privacy away; STOP using fees and fines to break the poor; STOP trying to prevent education; STOP the lying and brutality by cops and prison guards; STOP regressive taxes, STOP using health care to ensure poverty, STOP using prior caught and/or convicted sentences to deny jobs and provide livings . STOP, just STOP it all.
And any middle class citizen that doesn't think this applies to them and their kids is just living in denial.

(8,554 posts)For sure they're hoping all the "ruckus" will die down and things will settle down to business as usual.
Be willing to bet that most in that cop shop have no idea who Anonymous even is. And I'm delighted that they're about to find out!
Thanks for posting this, FarPoint! I usually read WHIO's website every week, but haven't gone there for a while since this Ebola epidemic blew into the country.

(328 posts).. trying to keep the local bus system from extending to "our" malls, and bringing "those" people into town to rob, rape, and steal. I live in Beavercreek, and am disgusted with the very thinly disguised racism here.
Personally, if I didn't have a car and wanted to come to the Beavercreek malls to rob, rape, and steal, I'd want a dependable bus system to make my getaway.....
Yes, there is a climate here of keeping "those" people out. And there are some, I'm sure, happy that our stores are now safe again.

This is the most important thing happening inside the US. From the racist cops right through to the protests. The fact that almost every single act of aggression on the side of the police across this country has been exonerated by the courts, just shows how far deep into this we are.
These kids are the new leaders of the movement for racial equality. They are awesome. They have to be beyond exhausted and they just keep leading and moving. The movement at the Ferguson PD yesterday morning, with preachers being arrested, some who have been doing this for 40 years, was heart wrenching.
