Protests over the conviction of Officer Liang is planned in over 40 cities. I wonder if worldwide or just in Canada and US. The only cities I know of with a Chinatown is under 40. Imagine if BLM will show up, and cause some ruckus.

Quote from article:

"“If Liang were really sentenced for 15 years, it would be unthinkable in a normal society,” Andy Wang said in an interview. “Even African-Americans would think: The guy who purposely strangled someone, who then died, wasn’t found guilty, and this guy who accidentally fired his gun, unintentionally, was found guilty.”

Wang was referring to the incident involving Eric Garner, who died on July 17, 2014, after he was put in a chokehold by NYPD officers. The officers involved were not indicted."

I dont know about this. The bullet, I dont think ricochetted off the ground. It bounced off a wall, which means, the guns was pointed. Why was the gun out?

Is that the officer that choked the life out the guy for resisting arrest for selling untaxed cigarettes?

Edit: Nevermind. The quote confused me. Should've read the story first.

The only thing wrong with that scenario was that the Officer used an illegal chokehold. But when a man that size forces you on to the ground, the fuck him. It wasn't about selling cigarettes. He thought he was above the law because he was big and didn't have to be arrested. He put lives in danger and paid the ultimate price for his actions. Fuck him.

It wasn't about selling cigarettes or his race. He thought he was above the law because he was big and didn't have to be arrested. He put lives in danger and paid the ultimate price for his actions. Fuck him. I just hope his death will be a lesson to others who would choose to engage a police officer in a life of death struggle.

My problem was he didnt even call ambulance after he shot him. He thought "oh gee if I call ambulance then I might get arrested", while the guy was laying there dying.

I don't know about manslaughter, but definitely criminal negligence causing death. He placed his finger on the trigger when it was not necessary, and failed to call for help immediately after the ricochet hit the guy.

It appears the voice of the chinese murican community still feels it was an accident. And they are right about the other cops applying an actual choke hold on someone.

Now a choke can be a restraining move, or a lethal one. Yet, Garner did die. Is Liang any more or less negligible than that gang of cops who were all over Garner?

I think that is what the protesters are leaning on.

Apparently 10 thousand showed up in NYC. It sounds like they need to hang somebody out to dry and who else but an Asian person when you need a scape goat.

Wow. This is certainly different than the typical rhetoric you hear. (i.e. "they killed a man for selling cigarettes")

Most people are either sheep or haven't been in a position that required them to secure someone in order to make sure they actually went home that day.

Gurley's girlfriend asked a neighbor to call 911 when she realized Gurley was shot. She was instructed to provide CPR so it wasn't necessary for him to call for an ambulance as it was on its way. Liang's response as to why he didn't provide medical attention was that he believed he was not an expert and waited for EMT or paramedics to arrive. Both he and his partner should have at least tried to assist but unless we have access to the transcript and even then any detailed response may not have been asked.

A recent case where two cops were shot in a New York City housing project where they were caught by surprise patrolling the staircase indicates it's known even to news reporters that these places are perfect places for criminal activity. That's also a question that has *Not * been answered by Liang or if he was asked it hasn't been reported in the media. The judge in Liang's case actually had this case not to be used by the defense.

How do you give random citizens that much power, arm them, put them in dangerous situations, and then jail them for 15 years when they screw up? If it was truly an accident due to negligence out of fear, then this doesn't add up. The only thing that would make me agree with a sentence is if he actually did not provide medical assistance.

It's why police should be made up of former military, not random citizens who have never seen action.

What some depts are finding out is that ex military don't fare well. They're trained to kill enemy combatants and not restrain huge obese men who resist arrest. People tend to fall back on their training during stress. The adage of train as you would like to fight is applicable.

You're absolutely right. Many high profile shootings in New York City through out the years weren't necessarily committed by white cops.

He testified when asked why he didn't provide medical assistance, he claimed he felt he wasn't qualified. Also Gurley's girlfriend was giving him CPR under directions from 911. There's audio footage online. I still think he should of done something but neither he nor his partner apparently did anything to assist Gurley's girlfriend. Landau received immunity to testify against Liang. Also the widely circulated news of Liang texting his union rep was deemed false even by the DA. With Liang's own testimony it does not *(edited to "does not") appear you would need Landau's testimony. He never explained or the press never presented any remarks as to why he felt compelled to pull out his service weapon though he claimed he didn't have his finger on the trigger.

It may be true to him. There was a LAPD cop who was sentenced for manslaughter when a black man was resisting arrest and when cops * unsuccessfully tried to cuff him, one officer said to back off and he was going to taze him. Instead he pulled his service weapon and shot the man in the back and caused his death. According to eyewitnesses, he said Oh my god! When he realized his mistake. There's even bystander smartphone footage on YouTube by at least different people without sound as they were too far from the scene. The human brain works differently under stress.

It looks like the US has learned nothing from the Rodney King incident.

His shitty family got alot of money over it too. Jaba the hutt had been arrested several times too before he died resisting arrest. Selling cigarettes I dont think is worth getting in trouble over but the resisting arrest and smacking the officers hands away from him is

Divide and conquer seems to be an American tradition...

Trying to figure out what the problem is here with the manslaughter conviction.

We could save a lot of time and money in the court system if we just passed a law that said failure to comply with the verbal instructions of a police officer, or any type of uninvited physical contact with an officer, will result in immediate execution by service revolver.

We can begin taking the message into elementary schools, via programs led by friendly, neighborhood police offers, to educate the kids:

If you say 'no'
Or touch a cop
The cop will shoot
And you will drop

Cops have to deal with teens like these or their adult counterparts but in this case a Chinese immigrant getting robbed and ganged up gets to deal with them. Imagine if that was your uncle or dad or brother:
