Eric Garner, Nazi Sympathisers and American Grand Juries

NYPD Chokehold Killing of Eric Garner
I'm not a lawyer and I really don't understand the "finer" details of our criminal justice system. But I do have enough common sense to recognize murder were I to see it on videotape.  A grand jury is shown an authenticated video of a man being grabbed off the street by a policeman and choked to death with an illegal chokehold.  And yet they decide that the law enforcement officer should not be brought to trial.

My heart is broken as I bear witness to America morphing into a bonafided police state.  It had long met the first requirement, but as of today, it has now met the second one as well.  In order to achieve police state status, it becomes first necessary to develop a highly militarized system of law enforcement.  It must see itself as protecting the interests of one population group against an internal enemy  (African-Americans in this case) .  The second requirement is nurturing an amoral docility in the population.    

Have you ever wondered how Nazi Germany was able to round up the Jews, build concentration camps and then begin exterminating 6 million innocent people?  Maybe it started with members of the German equivalent of a Grand Jury  being so malleable they could have watched a video (had they been invented at the time) of an SS officer grabbing a Jew off the street, choking him to death and then allowing themselves to be persuaded by a slick prosecutor that such behavior was appropriate, permissible and possibly even patriotic!
