Posting a photo of how he was victimized too, he said,
''Crazy thing about it.... It was "black cops" that did me dirty! And had me stripped of my freedom going on 11 years now! With 5 more years to go! Growing up in America as a young black kid in the ghetto is like suicide!''

"Police scanners?? Wow read this now
The video of the shooting was captured by chance by members of Stop the Killing Inc, a local anti-violence activist group and documentary team that listens to police scanners and shows up at the scene of potentially violent confrontations to take video. A second video that emerged later in Wednesday appeared to show one of the police officers removing a gun from Sterling's pocket after he was shot.
Stop the Killing Inc. was founded by Arthur "Silky Slim" Reed, a former gang leader turned anti-violence activist, who said that two members of his organization drove to the scene of Sterling's shooting after hearing police scanner traffic about a potentially violent disturbance. Reed declined to say which member of his team shot the video, or confirm if he himself was present for its recording, citing safety concerns..... Community activist I think this is a GREAT idea - they randomly pulled UP on the scene and got footage of this horrific crime as it happened - if they didn't he would be just another black man dead with no explanation - this is a start...... thoughts?
