Hip-Hop Reacts To Grand Jury Decision In Eric Garner Case

Hip-Hop Reacts To Grand Jury Decision In Eric Garner Case

With another non-indictment of a police officer accused of killing an unarmed black man coming in today, rappers take to Twitter to air out their feelings on the verdict.

Following the recent decision of a grand jury in Ferguson not to indict police officer Darren Wilson after he killed unarmed teen Michael Brown, another verdict has been passed that's got many Americans' heads spinning. We now know that the officer who choked Eric Garner (another unarmed black man) to death this summer in Staten Island will also not face any consequences for his lethal actions (even though there's video of him in the act), and rightfully so, many rappers aren't happy.
