Mothers of Trayvon Martin, Sandra Bland, Eric Garner and more take to the stage for powerful endorsement of Democratic nominee
I'm sure this went over big with blacks...Killary kowtowing to lock up their vote. On the other hand, this is the best thing she could have done to help the GOP! After 10 cops have been assassinated in the last few weeks (32 for the year a 78% jump) we'll see what the rest of America feels about this DNC stunt. This event is a direct affront to police departments around the country. Barry just slipped Killary the baton.
BTW…Check out Trayvon. They default back to the "angelic" bullshit photo.
Hey, didn't Al Capone have a mom too?

The mothers of Trayvon Martin, Sandra Bland, Eric Garner and Jordan Davis and more have delivered one of the most powerful speeches at the Democratic convention.
The grieving parents walked on stage together as Mothers of the Movement - a group who have been campaigning against gun violence and racism at the hands of police since the deaths of their children.
They all urged voters to back Hillary Clinton, as she 'isn't afraid to say Black Lives Matter'.
Tony Goldwyn, who plays President Grant in the ABC hit series Scandal and works with the Innocence Project, introduced the six women to the stage.

Eric Garner was killed after a police officer put him in a chokehold on Staten Island, New York, in July 2014.
This guy had been arrested over 30 times! You would have thought he would have learned the drill. But if anyone had a case here it might be him. They put a choke hold on him and he died. I believe it was an accident but who knows.
Trayvon Martin was just 17 years old when he was shot dead by police in Cleveland, Ohio, in February, 2012
For starters, he was shot in Sanford, FL. There are photos of him at age 17...
but let's use one when he was 12. What would you expect from DM?
No one saw what happened here. The witnesses heard this and that... meanwhile Barry filed adoption papers. In my view, looking back, neither Trayvon or Zimmerman were/are any good. On that day Trayvon got the short end of the stick. Had it been the other way around, or say DeMarcus Jones shot him it wouldn't have made page 10 in the local newspaper.

Guess someone forgot to invite her mom.
The death of Michael Brown at the hands of a cop sparked protests in Ferguson, Missouri, in August 2014.
Short and sweet. This guy was a thug who had just robbed a store. The 'hands up don't shoot' witnesses liars were proven so when their testimony didn't coincide with the forensic evidence. All said and done... another Sharpton 'Tawana' moment.
Sandra Bland hanged herself in her jail cell following an illegal traffic stop in July 2015
This woman had a long history of mental illness.
And her family who bitched a blue streak wouldn't post bail to get her out.
