Talking about the tweet, tbh, not you.
Hey I'm a liberal more than a repug. I just hate it when lib s cry for justice over something that would've just needed common sense to understand.
Talking about the tweet, tbh, not you.
I know, just saying cn.
And had it been an independent prosecutor actually interested in getting an indictment and not he and his offices political ass Wilson likely would have been indicted.
There is so much wrong with all of this. Of course he should have been going to trial/indicted. Of course people dying is terrible, especially at the hands of policy when there is a lack of transparency. But the sweeping claims (i.e. All cops are bad) and the fake outrage (i.e. Im afraid to walk down the street because I'm black and there are cops here) is what gets me.
Guys like Trill/Creepn (probably intentionally) refuse to address these points. Are they aware that the amount of cops involved in shootings is something really small numbers-wise compared to total number of cops? It's not to excuse the cops that did something wrong, but perspective is needed.
Saying you are afraid of cops in this context is about the equivalent of saying you won't get in the Ocean because you are scared of shark deaths that happen a handful of times while the people on the beach are mudering each other at a ridiculous clip.
Are you rallying for the unsolved murders in Chicago and setting CHI on fire because of the incredible gang violence taking its toll on the black youth? Are you burning down cities for the good honest cops that are gunned down while protecting the public? Are you as outraged when an unarmed White person is shot by a cop under questionable cir stances? If not, you aren't for a cause, you are for your "own".
I'm aware cops vs regular people is different due to the position of power. I'm not trying to say that something isn't bad because there's something worse (for example Michael Brown dying at a cops hand vs thousands of black youth being murdered by other black youth). I'm simply saying take a look in the mirror when making sweeping statements.

I was reading (although the numbers have some descrepancies) that there are about 400 fatal police encounters a year. Of those 400, there are about 19% of black youths that die. There are also about 9% of white youths. People always focus on the bigger number (which is an issue) but never on the total picture that white kids suffer at the hands of the cops (who are in the minority) who engage in something questionable. Why aren't people just saying that "transparency is needed because even though it's a small percentage, 400 police kilings seems to be an issue." It's always black v white and no one rallying for the overall issue, just their own which shrinks the numbers down even more than they already are.
That'd be a nice theory if all of the evidence presented didnt clearly support Wilson's account. Give it up already and admit you bought the race baiter narrative.
Well said and to your point not a peep here about the unarmed white kid shot in Kansas twice as many times as Mike Brown.
DPG with the voice of reason goods.
Nice bluster. You should try the white guilt angle. . . .
Well, that's not really what this thread is about is it?
Some very interesting numbers here:

The sad truth is that blacks do not feel safe. They do not feel protected and served. The numbers back that up. What we are seeing is a reaction to that.
Darren Wilson's police intv: Mike Brown struck me in my face 10x. Wilson to grand jury: he struck me in my face 2x.

I don't think the heart of the issues is actually their "own" as much as a group of people having an excuse to act like animals. You watch these people loot and riot and eventually kill each other. It's not about the victim or the system, it's about "hey the lights are off, time to get mine". They aren't going out stealing law books, they are stealing weaves and beer and tobacco products, because they might get away with it because "everybody is doing it". The victim's family feels they have support but in reality they locked their doors because of their neighbors being thugs, the same neighbors that now march in protest because the same kid they would have killed for his sneakers was killed by a white cop. Truth be told, if we could separate the truly offended from the riot parasites, there would be a smaller crowd and change would happen. It's hard to cause change by showing how innocent another black kid was by being a thieving thug. When black people who seem to have a facade of solidarity that goes only as far as their immediate needs dictate, start to hold their own accountable for their actions instead of always falling on the side of color regardless the situation, maybe others will take them seriously. It's hard to find any decency in all the selfishness however. It's been that way since I can recall. When a black figure goes against that "more for us" grain, he's outcast and labeled a white sympathizer. There's no "black community", there's a ty part of town that's predominately black. It's not by design, but by default that it's all in the same place. It's the "no other option now" place. Hardly a community.
I can sympathize with the black kid who wants out of that and the "community" is against it. Rewards are offered for being a loser, and you're outcast for being successful in life if you aren't dragging 10 worthless black people around with you as a "posse". If you made it through sports or rapping, you're in. If you made it by hitting books and staying out of trouble, you're a wannabe white who doesn't care for the community.
I wish welfare would shut off completely, right now, and let those who can survive do so. That would go a long way toward thinning the herd of idiots in this country, of all races.
Wilson has resigned. An excerpt from his resignation letter:
http://www.stltoday.com/news/local/c...a75e8983d.htmlI have been told that my continued employment may put the residents and police officers of the City of Ferguson at risk, which is a cir stance that I cannot allow. For obvious reasons, I wanted to wait until the grand jury made their decision before I officially made my decision to resign. It was my hope to continue in police work, but the safety of other police officers and the community are of paramount importance to me. It is my hope that my resignation will allow the community to heal.
Very well stated...and with him having no history of anything like this in his career there is no reason to think he's not sincere. He'll likely never work as a cop again. You guys happy now, or do you want to keep acting like a bunch of dumb niggers and have him thrown in jail for the rest of his life?
Well it's an honor to a dumb nigger to be thrown in jail, so maybe they wish him the best?
Our race will take care of him as they have since this started.
it's for the best that Wilson resign, he doesn't want to be looking over his shoulder the rest of his career, with a pack of coons comin at him "hands up, don't shoot cracka". He needs to find work in a white area where the crime rate is substantially lower.
Unite the Clans!
what you did there.

shouts out to the protestors in san francisco/oakland. they've been holding it down. lol checc out this dumb ass cop
