Move closer, have it shipped to me, and I'll bring it over. My gas. Unlike a buffet, several can benefit from a Prime account!

TO the point of the story, will we have another case where too much is sought and the shooter gets off?

You're on your own with such a ghey subject. Not my forte, talking about shooters getting off.

Update: a new grand jury is in the works to bring charges against the cop after the first one failed to deliver. Jonathan-Ferrell-and-Officer-Randall-Ker THE NEXT TRAYVON CASE ABOUT TO EXPLODE? White cop overcharged in black man's death, NAACP threatens protests

A racially charged shooting incident in North Carolina with eerie parallels to the Trayvon Martin drama has ended in the same way – with a jury refusing to hand state authorities the politically pressured charges they sought against the shooter.

In a decision angering the NAACP and other civil-rights activists clamoring for “justice,” a Charlotte grand jury has declined to indict Charlotte Police Officer Randall Kerrick for voluntary manslaughter in the shooting death of a 24-year-old black man who refused to obey orders to stop after police responded to a robbery call.

Jurors thought the evidence presented against the white officer did not support the manslaughter charge. As WND first reported in October, evidence showed authorities overcharged the shooter, who claimed self defense. Kerrick faced a prison sentence of up to 11 years.

Still, state authorities plan to resubmit the charge to a new panel of grand jurors scheduled to meet on Monday. The NAACP plans to protest outside the Charlotte courthouse during their deliberations.

During a local black church rally Thursday night, about 150 civil-rights activists organized by THUG – True Healing Under God – threatened to boycott the city if jurors fail to indict Kerrick for a second time.

Charlotte NAACP President Kojo Nantambu called the jury decision “despicable,” asserting, “Something is wrong with the system that we live in … something is wrong in this country.”

Rally organizer John Barnett, founder of THUG, said Ferrell would be alive if he were white like Kerrick.

“I’m trying to figure out: What does 14 jurors and one attorney general don’t see that people in Africa see?” Barnett asked. “That all of us see. What do they not see?”

Kerrick’s attorneys, meanwhile, are trying to block the new grand jury hearing as “a wholly improper and blatant attempt to influence” a politically correct outcome in the tragic case, which has attracted national attention.

Defense attorney George Laughrun said “the weight of the world” has been lifted from his client’s shoulders.

“He’s extremely relieved that the grand jury members saw fit to keep an open mind and not listen to all the propaganda on all the things he did wrong,” Laughrun said. “What they decided … was that Officer Randall Kerrick did his job. Regretfully it cost the life of Jonathan Ferrell. But he did his job.”

Kerrick was charged in connection with the Sept. 14 shooting death of Ferrell, a former Florida A&M football player who dashcam video shows violently charged Kerrick and other police officers.

Kerrick repeatedly fired at Ferrell with his gun after a Taser failed to stop him and after Ferrell failed to show his hands. Though Ferrell was found later to be unarmed, Kerrick and others who viewed the video insist the use of deadly force was justified.

As WND reported, the video shows Kerrick first opened fire after Ferrell – who was much larger than Kerrick – charged him while ignoring commands and concealing his hands. Kerrick fired more rounds after Ferrell continued to move forward to the point where he made physical contact with the officer.

“His hands were not in the air,” Laughrun said. At one point before the shooting, he added, “You see one of his hands partially behind his back, concealed, as he continued to advance.”

Ferrell may have been under the influence of controlled substances.

Witnesses reported to investigators that they saw Ferrell, who had dropped out of college, drinking alcohol and smoking marijuana in the hours before he crashed his car at an entrance to a suburban Charlotte neighborhood that Saturday at 2:30 a.m.

The police chief, who is African-American, still has not released the results of the toxicology report.

At least one resident of the neighborhood reported Ferrell acting violently several minutes before the confrontation with police.

A 9-1-1 tape reveals a frantic call from homeowner Sarah McCartney, who was home alone with her 1-year-old son while her husband was traveling. Through tears, she reported Ferrell trying to kick in her front door in what she thought was an attempted robbery. Banging and yelling can be heard in the background.

“I need help!” McCartney can be heard pleading with the operator. “There’s a guy breaking into my front door, he’s trying to kick it down!”

The 9-1-1 tape refutes the initial narrative told by the NAACP and the media, who claimed an injured and stranded Ferrell rang McCartney’s doorbell seeking help only to have McCartney slam the door shut after seeing a black man.

“Why did the woman assume it was a robber?” Chris Chestnut, Ferrell family attorney, said.

“How could this white woman be so terrified by the mere sight of a black man – an injured one at that – that she couldn’t contain her fright long enough to even hear out his plea for help? Come on,” wrote Neil Drumming a black columnist for Salon.com.

Drumming said nothing excuses “her utter lack of empathy,” while failing to report that Ferrell tried to kick in her front door. The 9-1-1 tape indicates Ferrell wasn’t acting like a helpless man but a ferocious threat.

Charlotte Police Chief Rodney Monroe confirmed that Ferrell started “banging on the door viciously.”

Nonetheless, black radio called McCartney a “racist b——” guilty of a “hate crime.”

A number of black activists posted McCartney’s home address along with photos of her home on social media. As a result, a number of vehicles have driven by her house harassing her family. They have had to hire security for protection.

As in the Martin case, which triggered national outrage over perceived racial profiling, the narrative told by civil-rights activists and national media about the shooting death of Ferrell has crumbled under the weight of facts and evidence.

Florida state authorities took over the Martin case after Sanford, Fla., police cleared George Zimmerman in the shooting, deciding he acted in self defense. After a jury later acquitted Zimmerman of manslaughter charges, authorities were criticized for overcharging Zimmerman.

Likewise, North Carolina state authorities took over the Ferrell case, which followed virtually on the heels of the Zimmerman trial.

Experts say they’ve never seen a police officer charged so swiftly in a shooting. Normally investigations into police shootings take weeks, if not months.

Yet Kerrick was thrown in jail within hours, bypassing the usual lengthy interviews by internal affairs. Authorities said they wanted to avoid any “ambiguity” as outrage in the black community grew and the NAACP and other groups threatened protests.

Kerrick’s legal team have planned to defend the officer under North Carolina’s “stand your ground” law, which allows police officers as well as citizens to use deadly force if they fear for their lives or someone else’s.

Legal experts say Kerrick had a strong case, and that authorities may have been too quick to charge the 27-year-old officer.

Police unions say police departments and state officials feel pressure from Attorney General Eric Holder and groups like the NAACP to charge first and investigate later in such cases. That political pressure is having a “chilling effect” on law enforcement officers.

“What it does is it shakes their confidence, because most cops like to think their department has their back,” North Carolina Fraternal Order of Police President Randy Hagler said.

The NAACP wants the charges against Kerrick elevated to murder. Anger in the community may grow if charges are dropped completely.

Ferrell’s family has filed a lawsuit against Kerrick. Chestnut insisted he opened fire on Ferrell before any commands or warnings were issued.

“There were no commands to ‘Stop, freeze, stop or I’ll shoot,’” he claimed.

“If Mr. Ferrell was not black or brown, wouldn’t they have asked him a few questions before showering him with bullets?” Chestnut added, suggesting bigotry played a role in the shooting.

“The officer is white, Mr. Ferrell is black,” he continued. “I think this is more of a reflection of where we are as a country.”

In fact, footage from a dashboard-mounted police camera shows officers commanded Ferrell at least three times to stop before Kerrick fired, but Ferrell continued to advance in a threatening manner toward them. Another Charlotte police officer, Thornell Little, fired a Taser at Ferrell before Kerrick resorted to using his firearm.

“Orders were given by one of the officers as it relates to him stopping,” acknowledged Chief Monroe, who is black. “There were statements given of that nature.”

The NAACP, however, insists it was an “execution” of a black man in “cold blood.”

“There is no evidence that shows Jonathan Ferrell should have been shot at all, but for officer Kerrick to shoot 12 times and striking Mr. Ferrell 10 times indicates more than a reflex, it smells more of hatred and rage, which shows that Mr. Kerrick was predisposed in killing a black man and did so with extreme prejudice,” the NAACP’s Nantambu insisted.
