Showing Original Post only (View all)Why is the Saint Louis County Police purposely trying to stir up unrest? [View all]
Last edited Wed Dec 24, 2014, 07:44 PM - Edit history (1)
Earlier today the County Police released a nearly 2 min video of what they claim shows Antonio Martin pointing a gun at a Berkeley police officer, problem is they freeze the video the moment it shows someone's arm extended and edit out the rest.
Why would they release a 2 min video with the key part edited out?
We got to see the Tamir Rice shooting unedited so why can't they release the entire video in this case, why leave doubts in people's minds?
Doubt leads to unrest and they know it.
