Execution

"At about 2:15 a.m. on New Year's Day, Grant, 22, a supermarket worker, was shot by Johannes Mehserle, 27, a transit police officer, at a subway station in Oakland, Calif. Handheld video-enabled cameras and cell phones at the ready, alert witnesses at the scene caught the shooting and the moments that preceded it from different angles. In one of their videos, an onlooker yells at a woman recording the scene: "Put it on YouTube!" Local and national television stations have aired and re-aired excepts from the raw and grainy videos, which have taken on a new life online. They're being commented on, edited and, in one disturbing, stylized, two-minute video, set to music. Uploaded on Jan. 3, that YouTube video has been viewed more than 60,000 times, and drawn nearly 450 comments." - Taken from local news story.

Face down execution. Just a reminder why the 2nd A exists. Gross negligence/Murder by those who are paid by the taxpayers to serve and protect. Protect your Rights.
