keeping with the u.s. security council resolution. here is more north korea, he tells us what would normally be a grim development for the country might benefit many north koreans. the news out ofko china that they won t be buying any more north korean coal for the rest of the year is certainly a blow to the country s government because selling coal to china÷ús one of the main ways north korea generates hard cash, currency, currency to pay for things like their nuclear program and missile program. here on thep streets, there may be a silver lining to this announcement. because over the past year since coal exports have been restricted, people have moreht electricity in the morning when they re getting work for the work. in the evening when they re cooking dinner with their family. if you look at the skyline now versus aç year or two ago, you see a lot more lights on than you did before. and so the fact that there s more coal being kept inside the

city of angels. in oakland, far left city, only about 100 people showed up. no arrests were made there. you can sigh the antipolice call was not exactly heeded. the vast majority of americans understand most of the na jjrs 1.2 million law enforcement agents are good people who risk their lives to protect the innocent. but with high tech now capturingz it s easy for cop haters to enforcement community. in north charleston, south carolina. a police officer was recently caught on tape killing an unarmed black man who was running away from him after a traffic stop. the officer, michael slager is charged with murder. in tulsa, 73-year-old reserve deputy shot and killed a black man who was allegedly trying to sell a firearm. the deputy robert bates has been charged with manslaughter. and in san bernardino, california, 3ñ-year-old francis pusok was beaten by as many as 10 cops after
