New York City Cops Acquitted In 50 Bullet Killing Of Unarmed Black Man On Wedding Day. An INDEPENDENT Investgation Is Urged.

Three New York City police officers, who shot an UNARMED Black man on his wedding day, by firing 50 shots at him and fatally wounding him, have been found not guilty by a judge in a bench trial.

I do NOT about you, but shooting an unarmed man 50 times -- one of the officers even re-loaded -- sounds EXTREME and EXCESSIVE to me, suggesting to me that the QUICK trigger response (in view of the fact that the man was unarmed) may suggest possibly criminal conduct or civil rights violations deserving of an investigation INDEPENDENT of the police, especially considering the past history of the NYPD with respect to shootings of minorities.

A minimal investigation by the U. S. Justice Department will go a long way in simmering the flames that are likely to be fanned by this incident.
