Killer Cop Might Walk and Here's Why - I.O.U. Confession #1

Cellphone video of a cop shooting a fleeing man in the back 8 times

is frozen in this image on Web media around the world.  Considering that North Charleston police officer Michael Slager is then recorded walking up and tossing a taser next to Walter Scott's dead body, it's not a stretch that the cop would be arrested and charged with first degree murder.  Slam dunk, finally a cop will pay for being a murderous bully.  But wait.  Who shot the video?  A young Black man?

My first thought:  "they" are gonna claim the witness, (obviously a nefarious special FX mastermind, a veritable young Black Spielberg who probably hates white people almost as much as Spike Lee hates white people) the young Black male witness doctored the cell phone footage, with the Instagram skills he learned making new crap look old and turning sunsets green, making "slap cam" vines and George Jefferson memes.......  Yeah, and that would be my stuff.  Even if some White folks don't trust Black folks as far as they can shoot them, why would I temper my own sense of righteous indignation by dwelling on what some White folks do and don't trust, will or won't think.  It's demoralizing and useless I.O.U. (Internalized Oppression Uncovered) that will have me angrily reacting in comment sections rather than thoughtfully responding in blog posts.  I'll leave it for the stink bugs to roll balls of that crap around.

My second thought, though:  the lawyer in me knows that first degree murder requires proof of premeditation.  Proof that Michael Slager pre-meditated, that he deliberated and thoughtfully considered murdering Walter Scott.  Slater might be a registered KKK member who considered the terrorist organization's successful track record of raising money for cops who kill Black people and intended to hit the GoFundMe lottery by killing an unarmed Black man.  How exactly is a prosecutor (presumably a District Attorney who has absolutely zero incentive to convict a cop with first degree murder unless he plans on running for office in majority minority (the ridiculousness of that phrase not-withstanding) North Charleston)... how is a prosecutor supposed to prove murder-cop Michael Slager woke up that morning and intended to shoot Walter Scott?  And why would a DA charge the cop with that specific crime, one which requires such a high burden of proof?  

Prepare yourself.  The cop may actually walk and that ain't I.O. crap.  That's oi crap.

There is a boiling point America.  Every cop or vigilante that walks for murdering a Black man is another cup of salt in the cauldron.

P.S.
Here is the news article that reported on the murder before the video came out.  It reports officer Michael Slager's lies word for word.  But Black on Black crime, though!
