【禁聞】美國佛格森案 中共為何高調報導?

【新唐人2014年12月01日訊】美國佛格森警察開槍導致黑人死亡事件,大陪審團認定警察無罪,之後在美國不同城市發生示威活動。對此,中共官方媒體高調報導:這是美國的人權傷疤。不過人們質疑中共:這些年來,在中國大陸,警察不斷的打死少數民族、異見人士、信仰民眾、上訪國民以及拆遷戶等等,為甚麼官方媒體態度卻保持沉默?大不相同?請看以下採訪報導。

日前,美國中西部密蘇里州一個大陪審團作出裁定,對開槍打死黑人青年布朗的白人警察威爾遜不予起訴,這一裁決引發了幾乎遍及全美國的抗議,而事發地——密蘇里州弗格森爆發了嚴重的暴力抗議和搶劫。

今年8月,槍擊案發生後,密蘇里州由9名白人和3名黑人組成的大陪審團,開始取證,大陪審團根據各方證詞、物證以及布朗的屍檢結果,威爾遜的傷勢鑑定,警車內外的DNA報告,子彈的方向和軌跡等等,最後認定威爾遜是在執行公務,不對他提出刑事起訴。

密蘇里州檢方對裁決作出解釋說,大陪審團經過25天,從60個證人那裏,聽取70個小時的證詞,才做出了裁決。

不過,大陪審團裁定後,密蘇里州弗格森爆發嚴重騷亂,騷亂幾乎遍及全美。

總統歐巴馬就此事發表講話,呼籲民眾保持冷靜,接受大陪審團作出的決定,用和平的方式表達抗議。

歐巴馬坦承,美國部分地區的執法機構與有色人種社區之間,確實存在相互不信任。不過絕大多數執法人員中,都不存在歧視性執法現象。歐巴馬說,他自己個人生活就見證了種族關係的進步。

紐約城市大學政治學教授夏明:「美國它有一個社會輿論,公眾的抗議活動可以形成一個規模,這種抗議其實是美國社會正常生活的一部分,很多的不公正就給暴露出來,得到各級政府,尤其是聯邦政府的干預和解決。這是美國很大的一個特徵,就在於許多的問題是一種社會問題,而不是中央的政策問題。」

大陸律師程海:「中國要碰到這種事情,通常是家屬去給法院施加壓力。(中共)長期的宣傳給公眾一個認識,好像警察都是萬能的,永遠都不會錯。中國不會輕易的出現美國這種情況,好像寧可錯,國內有很多過了幾年被殺的又出來了。」

大陪審團裁定後,美國各大媒體一直持續關注。

對於密蘇里弗格森騷亂,中共媒體發出了不同聲音。外交部表示這是美國內政,《新華社》把這描述成是美國人權不光彩的瘡疤。《環球時報》則罕見發問,中國法庭是否也敢在做出裁決的時候,不考慮可能激起的騷亂。

夏明:「中國和美國一個質的差別就在於,中國出現問題的時候它會掩蓋,它永遠是一種偉光正形象,但是在美國沒有任何一級的領導人,任何一個政黨,任何一個政府可以通過各種維穩、打壓、封網、控制媒體來維持偉光正的形象。」

在中國,警察開槍打死藏人、維吾爾人,以及打死抵制強拆的貧民,經常發生,甚至為死於豆腐渣工程,以及三鹿毒奶粉的孩子伸冤的民眾,都要遭到當局打壓。

今年警察開槍打死維族人越演越烈,最後導致警民衝突不斷。7月份,警察在盤查1輛公交車時,與維族人發生衝突,過程中警察開槍打死21名維族人,抓捕70多人。

世界維吾爾組織說,維族死傷人數之多,猶如種族屠殺。不過,大陸國內的報導中,除了報導維族人攻擊警察外,警察開槍打死人的事實卻很少呈現。

《美國之音》評論說,在中國,引起抗議的往往是重大政治或經濟問題,而法庭宣判無論多麼「荒謬」,絕少引起社會騷亂。評論還指出,中國法庭歸政法委管,法官都是黨的幹部,法庭的判決要看是否符合黨的利益。而美國有陪審團制度,裁決包含了民眾的常識。

《美國之音》還指出,這次威爾遜沒被判罪,法庭只是起到了組織作用,組織這些擔任陪審員的美國普通民眾研究案情,決定是否需要起訴當事人。而陪審團只是作出不起訴的決定。

據美國媒體報導,威爾遜目前已經從弗格森警局辭職。

The Difference Between the U.S. And China When Police Kill

The grand jury’s decision on the American policeman who shot

and killed an African American not only caused nationwide riots,

but also drew comments from the Communist regime

which claimed this is a scar on US human rights.

Numerous minorities, dissidents, people of religions,

and petitioners have also been killed by the Communist police,

but the responses of the courts and society from China

are very different from the US.

Why? Let’s take a look.

Rioting rocked Ferguson, Missouri, and other towns this week

after a jury decided Darren Wilson, the white police who fatally

shot an unarmed black teenager Michael Brown, should not

be charged over the killing.

In particular, violent protest and vandalism occurred

in Ferguson.

A Missouri grand jury – of nine white and three black members –

made no recommendation of state criminal charges

on the police officer

after a series of deliberations on witnesses, evidence,

Brown’s autopsy, Wilson’s injury examination, DNA reports,

and the forensic analysis of the bullet direction and trajectory.

The St. Louis County prosecutor said the decision was made

by a grand jury which met on 25 days, heard 60 witnesses

and 70 hours of testimony.

Riots took place in Ferguson and across the United States

after the jury’s decision was made.

President Obama delivered a speech on the matter.

He called on the people to accept this decision was the grand

jury’s to make, and anyone who protests this decision to do so

peacefully.

Obama said, “The fact is into many parts of this country

a deep distrust exists", and he does not believe discrimination

is true with the majority of law officials.

The nation has made enormous progress in race relations

and he has witnessed that in his own life.

Professor Xia Ming, Political Science, the City University

of New York: “In American society, a protest from the media

and the public can form a large scale, it is a part of social norms.

When the injustice is exposed, the governments, especially

the federal will intervene and try to resolve it.

This is the characteristics of the US where many issues are

of the society, rather than central policy."

Lawyer Cheng Hai: “If it were in China, the family would have

put pressure on the court.

The propaganda has been that the police are omnipotent,

never at fault.

The situation in the US won’t easily happen in China.

They’d rather it is wrong, therefore we have seen very often

that the ones who killed would emerge a few years later."

Media in the US have continued to report

after the grand jury’s decision.

The Communist media also made reports

but with a different point of view.

The Foreign Ministry said this is an internal affair of the US.

Xinhua News Agency describes this as a disgraceful scar

on US human rights.

Global Times questioned if a Chinese court would dare to

make a final ruling without concern over consequential riots.

Xia Ming: “There is a qualitative difference between China

and the United States.

The regime will cover up the issue in order to maintain

its image of great, bright and right.

In the US, no leadership, party or government is allowed

to maintain its image through means of stability maintenance,

suppression, censorship and media control."

In China the police often shoot and kill the Tibetans,

Uyghurs and those who resist enforced demolition.

Even those who raise grievances for victims of shabby

construction and poison milk powder are subject to

the suppression of the authorities.

This year police shooting and killing Uyghurs has intensified

and led to clashes between police and people.

In July, a conflict occurred when the police interrogated

a bus-load of people.

Consequently, 21 Uyghurs were killed and more than 70 arrested.

World Uighur Congress said the many deaths and injuries

are like a genocide.

But, the regime reports maintained the Uyghurs attacked

the police.

The fact that police shoot and kill is rarely reported.

Voice of America commented, in China, protests are often

caused by major political or economic issues.

A court verdict, however “ridiculous" it may be, would rarely

lead to social unrest.

Comments also pointed out that Chinese courts are under

the Politics and Law Committee.

Judges are party cadres,

and the court’s decision is based on the party interest.

Whereas in the US jury system,

the verdict includes common sense of the people.

VOA also pointed out that in Wilson’s case, the court played

a role in organizing a group of jurors from the general

population to study the case and decide if a prosecution

should be brought against Wilson.

The jury decided not to recommend the charge.

Accordingly, Wilson has resigned from the police department

of Ferguson.
