. People, please make this video viral. This bullshit has to stop. Demand Justice!!! Poster Comment: http://www.ktvu.com/news/28573517/detail.html SAN FRANCISCO -- San Francisco police shot a man in San Francisco's Bayview District early Saturday evening. The man died later that evening from his injuries. The incident occurred around 4:45 p.m. on Third Street and Oakdale Avenue when a 19-year-old man, who was believed to have been carrying a gun, was shot and collapsed on the sidewalk, police said. A police spokesman said the shooting began after two uniformed officers conducted a fare inspection on a Muni light rail vehicle. They detained the man on the platform, but he fled on foot. During the foot pursuit, police said the suspect fired at the officers, and the officers fired back. Witnesses had a different story and said police overreacted. As the man was running he had his hands up in the air, and then hit the ground when he was shot, one witness said. Police maintained that the man had a weapon and they searched the area for the firearm. One bullet casing lay on the street, and police said it came from a gun that did not belong to the police officers. Police said witnesses could have taken the victim’s weapon when the man collapsed, or the suspect could have thrown the gun somewhere during the pursuit. The suspect was taken to the hospital with life-threatening injuries and he later died from those injuries at 7 p.m. The officers were not injured. Within hours of the shooting, an anonymous video popped up on YouTube that showed not only the chaos of the shooting scene, but what the person who posted the video claimed was a silver handgun lying 20-feet from the mortally wounded teenager. In the video, a large crowd that gathered near the scene, along with several police officers who roped off the area. A close look at the lower right corner of the video revealed a shiny object. In the video, a person in a hooded sweatshirt picked it up. Later in the video a person wearing a gray hoodie picked up something that appeared to be a cell phone. Police still haven't found the gun the suspect was said to be firing. The two police officers involved in the shooting were placed on paid administrative leave following the incident. The shooting is being investigated by the homicide detail, the internal affairs officer-involved shooting, the District Attorney's Office and the Office of Citizen Complaints.
"Whatever the truth may be in regards to after-the-fact claims that Kenneth Harding was a murder suspect, it has no relevance to the on-the-spot decision by police to fire (multiple times) on a bus fare scofflaw. Murderers are entitled to a trial, not execution in the streets. This extreme excessive force completely undermines community relations with police, is racially divisive"
Kenneth Harding is still alive in this picture... the officers standing around him did nothing to help him with his injuries.

M-16s .... you've gotta fucking be kidding me! These pigs are paranoid assklowns! One of these days, and I'm guessing soon, a mob like that is going to rush them, tear them to f'ing pieces, and a good chunk of America is going to rejoice. I'll be among them, ... go out and have a beer in celebration for having a few less Satanic psychotics on the planet! Cops are slowly realizing that it ain't about law and order or civilized society. The police are to help the elite maintain control of the disenfranchised masses. Cops can either wield their batons and do "The Lord's Work" or join the masses and be brutalized themselves. Cops are the contemporary equivalents of Roman Centurions who will crucify any and all who upset the de facto rulers of the former US. And mirroring the Biblical account it may be President Pontius Q. Despot who washes his hands but the actual sentence will be ordered by modern day Pharisees, those with great power that is inversely proportional to their anonymity.

Quote: "Perhaps, but IMO most are siding with the Tyranny, far from "the Lord's work." Of course. The "lord" to whom I was referring is King David Son Of Standard Oil. It should have been in lower case to avoid any confusion with The Lord Jehovah-YHWH. My apologies for any misunderstanding. Quote: "I suspect that the "man of lawlessness" does not refer to an individual, rather a state of man, ... such as what we're now seeing, whereby lawlessness and sin runs rampant and unbridled, as a rule and with the endorsement of society as it were. By that I mean that the quest for mammon/wealth e.g. will be, as it is, fully endorsed, encourage, and even set as a standard to be attained, ... as it is." You're batting .1000 with me so far. I never thought I'd see the day when a moral man would be considered an oddity, and whose very presence would chill casual chats in mixed company. I remember a film about some Aryan Military Academy For Boys where the half crazy and completely corrupt commandant said "Our motto is, 'a cadet does not lie, cheat or steal or tolerate those who do.'" It's a wonderful code of ethics (which I have adopted) but Hollywood very cynically used it as dialogue for a villainous mad man. Those words would never come from the mouths of any of their heroes,who must have the extra-legal latitude to summarily execute "anti-Semites, bank robbers, anti egalitarians and anti-Semites."

The pigs are so forked in the head that it is more a mental disease and disorder than anything that the "medical" industry has diagnosed in years!
