Earlier today, Eric Garner’s daughter visited the memorial for Wenjian Liu and Rafael Ramos, the two NYPD officers killed on Saturday. “I just had to come out and let their family know that we stand with them, and I’m going to send my prayers and condolences to all the families who are suffering through this tragedy,” Emerald Garner told ABC News.

“I don’t feel conflicted because I was never anti-police,” Garner, whose unarmed father was choked to death by an NYPD officer this summer, added. “Like I said before, I have family that’s in the NYPD that I’ve grown up around, family reunions and everything so my family you know, we’re not anti-police.”

This was such an honorable and humble thing for Eric Garner’s daughter to do and kudos to her for stating the message that the mainstream media is working to overshadow, which is that most people are not anti-police, however, we should ALL be anti-injustice.
