Grandma Uses “Hands Up” Police Shooting As Halloween Decoration

A Detroit Grandmother is using Halloween as a way to tell the public what “actually frightens her” and one scene is a shooting victim with arms raised, under a sign stating: “MY HANDS WERE UP.”

In addition to a decoration depicting the danger of the water in Flint, Michigan, she knew she wanted one dummy to represent those who have died in recent months in police-involved shootings.

To Larethia Haddon’s credit, she didn’t say that all the police were bad and she didn’t use race as an issue but she clearly thinks that police shootings equal that of poisoned water and terrorism, which was another decoration.

We have an idea here at Law Officer.  How about adding a decoration of a news reporter because they truly do seem to be the enemy.
