Sharpton, family seek change a year after Stephon Clark shot to death by police
SACRAMENTO, California -
Standing beside the family of 22-year-old black man Stephon Clark, whom police shot to death a year ago Monday.
The [Human Fire Extinguisher, sell out, and grand pacifier] Reverend Al Sharpton called for
California to make it easier to prosecute officers who kill civilians
and to require that all cases go before a grand jury.
- [There has to be a better way than Al Sharpton. And fortunately there is. This sell out is only trotted out to serve the status quo by pretending to oppose it in a "controlled opposition" sort of way, a moral outrage by a reverend dismissed and hated by a large part of the black community. As soon as he enters the picture, one knows something foul is afoot.]
"Sharpton spoke on the steps of the Capitol alongside Clark's brother, mother, and grandmother, as well family attorney Ben Crump, who is known for representing the families of young black men killed by police.
I pledge to do nothing about this tragedy! |

Now Sharpton, Crump and the family are calling for sweeping changes to California laws dealing with police shootings. They're backing legislation by San Diego Assemblywoman Shirley Weber that would change the standard for when police can use deadly force. More
