No Justice. No Peace ?
I am a proud Oakland native and although there were looters who managed to cause some destruction in Downtown Oakland, the majority of people that attended the earlier rally were not there to destroy Oakland but to express themselves peacefully. Those people who did those things were not there to support the cause but intentionally showed up to take advantage of the situation. In cases like this, there will always be those type of ignorant selfish people. Please know that most Oakland natives are not like that. People are genuinely concerned about the verdict and don't intend to hurt and destroy public property but would like for our current justice system to be further examined and restructured. Personally, I'm am devastated that justice has NOT been served. If you take a look at the situation, this could have happened to anyone. Oscar Grant represents all of us...our brothers, our sisters, our mothers, our fathers. We are all Oscar Grant.
Peace & Love Always,
Casey:))
