Buffalo police officer vindicated after 2008 termination

Buffalo police officer Cariol Horne was fired in 2008 after she says she stopped a White Buffalo officer who was using a chokehold on a Black suspect. Jericka Duncan spoke with Horne, who on Tuesday had her termination reversed, and is now eligible for her nearly $1 million pension.

I wish her well for the years to come knowing she can walk through life with her head held high. She sets an example for new recruits of why we join the police in the first place, which is firstly to protect life of all those in need of help no matter the situation or who they are.

It's the culture of the job. The officer performing the choke hold probably had a very low opinion of the suspect.

Standing up to, challenging and fighting the occupational culture of policing that at the very least turns a blind eye to malpractice is difficult and brave for serving officers to do.

Black police officers are caught between a rock and a hard place. They cannot brutalize and gun down white suspects and they can't intervene or stop a white police officer from using excessive force on Black people.

Beloved, I don't know you in person but God knows you. God ministered to me in a revelation when I was on your profile to see things around you, I saw blessings but spiritual attacks holding onto them, in prayers, I saw a woman in the realm of the spirit monitoring and plotting delay in your life, with an evil mirror, and with a motive to destroy. But as I speak to you now her time is up, Render hand of favor with Anything you can afford or give to this motherless foundation (Godstime MOTHERLESS FOUNDATION) in kebbi state Nigeria before 2DAYS with faith, as I Rise my hands towards heaven and pray for you they shall serve as a point of contact wherever you are, you will receive a double portion of grace to excel and total restoration of a breakthrough in your life and the life of your family. Ask for their acct details and help them call the MD in charge of the orphanage to get their details on (WhatsApp or call them now on ([phone]) tell him I sent you. For it is not by might nor by in power but of the spirit saith the Lord (Zechariah 4:6). You shall testify to the Glory of God in your life. God bless you in Jesus name

This is America. This is the America black people know. Some black people think they can buy their way into white America but eventually a white person makes it plain they are not welcome. And that's just the sad reality. I'm sure someone is gonna say my comment is the problem and I'm the problem. But this has been going on since before I was born. Some white people aren't use to seeing black people of the same status. But they are used to seeing black people in these jobs that they are pretty much in a position of servitude. And so the way they see the world is different. And then there are the advantages of being able to navigate life in that way. Some black people learn to live a life of luxury and shield their kids from racism. But they aren't telling their child that, they're just creating the illusion for their child that racism isn't a thing until it happens to them. Then their whole world is rocked. And then there are white people who are just racists and those who aren't but have some biases and those who aren't and get it. They get everything. Same with black people. Personally I feel our feelings towards white people are justifiable. Please be clear I said FEELINGS not to be confused with actions of any sort. But some black people hate white people. Some have biases and some just don't care and are all love is love. But most black people and those white people who get it aren't shocked or surprised.
