The NYPD delivers a Black History Month message "Black men watch your back"

Once again we have a young black male dying at the hands of the NYPD. What's going to be their excuse now? "He had a candy bar, but we thought it was a gun?" This is really getting out of hand with the NYPD's relentless attack on the civil rights of black men in the city of New York. Why are members of the NYPD targeting young black men..still in 2012?! DJ Henry was just killed and now Ramarley Graham, 18, was shot and killed by a NYPD. UNARMED. This is the key..UNARMED. What do young black men have to do to be respected by the people who are supposed to "serve and protect"? Alas we hold our heads high..during this 29 days of Black History Month.. and we plead with the NYPD to "Stop killing our young black men".
