Sandra was INNOCENT (Justice for Sandra Bland)

She innocent and she know my rights and she refuse to be spoken to in any kind of disrespectful manner, so she was a threat now right?!..she was pulled over for failure to use a turn signal light.. Yet how did she end up loosing my life? They felt the need to abuse their authority.. getting antsy and an attitude because she wouldn't submit to their authority and put out my cigarette. She was irritated by the ignorant presence standing near her. They snatched her out her car with no right and took her out of camera view to mistreat and abuse my rights. All this over a turn signal light but she remain innocent.In fact she wasn't officially under arrest, just under their knee in my back claiming she resisted arrest feeling the pressure and discomfort in her chest as she tried to free their wrist from the agony of the force they put upon me.. still wasn't right, all this over failure to use a signal light forgetting the fact I was still innocent right?! Their lies will haunt them.. they will find them and expose em. The more people read the story that they fabricated to benefit from their own cruelty doesn't take away from the innocence in her. Mass murderings and police brutality flooding the streets, obeying a cop doesn't mean they will live to see another day and protesting is not stopping the murders. Stand together.. rise together, for justice.. it may not concern them now til its their own and even then it will be too late. nothing is more threatening then knowing our rights.
