    You can't make this up. I am told that the police officer who shot and killed Diante "Butchie" Yarber, an unarmed black man, in the parking lot of the @Walmart in Barstow, CA was previously arrested for a hate crime against a Black couple, plead guilty, and fired for it.

        In 2010, this horrific Barstow cop was arrested for a hate crime against a Black couple. He did it. He admits he did it. SOURCE: http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lanow/2010/11/barstow-police-officer-charged-with-hate-crime-battery.html … He was fired for it. Then, on a "technicality" they gave him his job back years later SOURCE: http://sbcsentinel.com/2015/11/barstow-police-officer-fired-in-2013-reinstated/ …

        ALL HANDS ON DECK. It is California Law that Police Departments MUST release the names of officers who shoot people. Call the Sheriff @ 909-387-3545 and demand they release the names of the cops who killed Diante "Butchie" Yarber.pic.twitter.com/ac4qZ2w6N8

        Yet when ppl talk about racism theyre made to feel crazy or like a conspiracy theorist but its the saddest vindication when your see shytt like this it makes you even more paranoid and less likely to believe in "accidents", that man wasn't accidentally re-employed on tax dollars.

        Per judge in case, you can be a violent,drug addict (? Referred to NA) racist as long as you're off duty and out of your juridistiction. That's why he's back on the streets as a cop. That judge is just as guilty imo.

        What!!! I honestly believe that black men are becoming nothing more than mere targets for police officers.
