If you need reasons why people are kneeling during the anthem to try to end police brutality and racial inequality here is example #10000000004846.
A police officer can murder a black man in broad daylight over some cigarettes, get a massive raise and make over 100k a year.
Police officer Daniel Pantaleo, who restrained Eric Garner in a chokehold shortly before Garner died on Staten Island in 2014, has steadily increased his earnings — including a sharp jump in overtime pay — in the two years since he was placed on modified duty.
Pantaleo earned $119,996 in fiscal year 2016, which includes earnings between July 1, 2015 and June 30, 2016. His base pay was $78,026 and he earned $23,220 in overtime, according to a review of payroll records. He received an additional $12,853 in unspecified pay, which could include retroactive pay or bonuses.
Pantaleo’s earnings in 2016 represent a 35 percent increase in overtime pay, and a 14 percent overall increase from the previous fiscal year, which began shortly before Garner’s death on July 17, 2014.
This wasn’t an isolated incident for Pantaleo.
These are the cops that shouldn’t be on the streets, but they are getting raises, but you are upset with Kaepernick?
