Ppl (white conservatives) are going 2 say.."well why'd he run!?" He ran because he's seen the reports over the last 13 yrs of his life where police shot #TamirRice for sitting at a park while being Black. He ran because police have a policy against young black kids 2 shoot 1st

Hey @USATODAY remember when you did that huge expose on how teachers who had been fired or had their licenses revoked hopped from one state to another and how that expose was a catalyst for change? You should do the same thing for police officers!!

For the police department to hire a man who'd been fired and had a known track record of violence is to invite this tragic and unnecessary death. There will be lawyers and civil suits — and it’ll be the citizens of East Pittsburgh who pay. They should be up in arms. Smdh.

This is beyond ridiculous at this point. Innocent black kids are dying because they are black. Then you have the opposite site where being a white female, gets you a hug from the officer. Dreadful double standards and yet nothing is changing.

First thing I saw when I looked at that picture was the tiki torch in the background. Coincidence?

we need a no second chances bill barring any fired police officer from ever holding that title ever again.

how do you get hired as a police officer if you are fired as one that is a horrible background check just awful

Real question, if the problem with police is "bad apples" then why do police keep rehiring the "bad apples"
