Paterson To Meet With Sharpton, Bell Family

Suorised? David Paterson is surprised with the cops gettng acquitted. Please this has been going on for years and will continue to go on as long as it is accepted and never questioned by a higher authority. NYPD actually have a license to kill young minorities in NY.
