According to CNN , the Louisiana officers who killed Alton Sterling under the pretense that he was reaching for a gun will not face any criminal charges. Sterling’s aunt, Veda Washington-Abusaleh stated it plainly: “They’re not going to bring charges on anybody. Why would they do that? This is white America,” Washington-Abusaleh said.

Alton Sterling. F**k the police.
