It’s hard to say that Staten Islanders didn’t go all Staten Island with the failure to indict, but they went all Staten Island. They are far more conservative and law-and-order-ish than the rest of the City, but the fact that they ignored the video showing clear misconduct shows problems with trying police officers.

It’s an impossibly high bar, and that even clear video showing misconduct is no guarantee that an indictment can be filed against police.

It’s also no wonder so many in the minority community have no reason to trust the justice system when they see rank injustice applied at every turn - especially when it comes to members of their own community slain at the hands of the police with no criminal charges filed.
