Democratic debate interrupted by protesters calling for firing of NYPD officer who killed Eric Garner by stableford
The opening statements at Wednesday’s Democratic presidential debate in Detroit were interrupted by demonstrators protesting the death of Eric Garner and NYPD officer Daniel Pantaleo, whose chokehold killed the 43-year-old black man in 2014.
“This decision is wrong, unjust and painful reminder of just how broken our criminal justice system is,” he tweeted on July 16. “Eric Garner should be alive today. I pray his loved ones can find peace.” “To the folks who were standing up to Mayor de Blasio a few minutes ago — good for you,” read a message from Booker’s Twitter feed. “That’s how change is made.”
