Rapper P. Diddy has reacted over Police charging crowds of protesters and arresting 47 people in Missouri.
As tensions flared following the shooting dead of a ‘knife-wielding’ suspect by police in St Louis, He Posted a video with the caption: ‘It’s a shame that in 2014 some people still have the mentality that this is the year 1968. As we watch the news from Missouri I am saddened I’m confused and I am in disbelief that in the United States of America after all that the black man and woman have been through that it’s okay as a people to treat us as animals in second-class citizens ! If this was any of the community would the police be pointing shotguns at the children who are just trying to be heard and Ifollow in the footsteps of the civil rights movement God help us all!’
