Sean Combs, “I can’t take it anymore!” message sent to his 4.5 million Instagram users after hearing Eric Garner decision

Shortly after a grand jury announced that Staten Island, New York Police Officer Daniel Pantaleo would not be indicted for the death of Eric Garner in a prohibited police chokehold, Sean “Diddy” Combs took to his Instagram account to broadcast the following message to his 4.5 million followers:

#WATCH …….I can’t take it anymore! It’s Enough, and enough is enough! Honestly my emotions are all over the place. We as artists, myself included, all have to step up and be better leaders in our communities. It’s a hard burden to bear, but we have been chosen whether we like it or not. We need to do whatever we can in a POSITIVE way, to help unite people of all colors in this injustice! In order to be successful, it is very important that we have a well ORGANIZED, STRATEGIC plan. This is super important in order for us to make change!! REAL organization, REAL strategy and a TRUE commitment to not forget and move on like we usually do when the news stops reporting. This has to stop and we as a people are the only ones that can stop it. I truly do not have the right to preach, but I do have the right to speak. #EricGarner #MikeBrown #UNITE
