Today, we remember #EricGarner, who was killed by the Staten Island police on July 17, 2014.

i can guarantee ANY #birdsite conversation about #tyrenichols will include more than 1 comment asking "why didn't he comply?" Or "was he on drugs?" or other statement made after deaths of #GeorgeFloyd #ericgarner #freddiegray. & those who would ask that lack basic humanity to picture themselves in that situation.

I watched the joyous skateboarding montage of #TyreNichols.

Justice for #EricGarner

RT @ShimonPro@twitter.com

CNN: New York Police Department Officer Daniel Pantaleo should be terminated following his controversial involvement in the death of Eric Garner, a departmental administrative judge officially recommended Friday, according to a source with direct knowledge of the decision.
