    Law enforcement has always been "militarized", tbh. As long as they don't start using grenades, tanks, etc., I don't see what the big deal is. Is it the camo that bugs people out. In the 1930's, cops carried Tommy guns because they were matching the firepower they were going up against.

    Yes, why do cops wear riot gear during riots?

    uhhh...no it hasn't always been militarized. michael render breaks it down perfectly starting at the 1:30 mark. what bugs people out are cops who aren't from that community terrorizing the same people they were sworn to protect.

    They weren't going against an army when they dressed up like one.

    Face it. The cops' heavy handed response made the situation a lot worse.

    doesn't mean he deserves to be gunned down, but if he's willing to straight jack and then assault the owner, it's not unreasonable to think he would go bout it bout it with a cop. I'd have problems if they released video of him from high school, smoking a blunt and talking about white people. That might be relevant in a court but not during a riot. But this video was literally right before his demise, so to me it shows his state of mind. I really don't understand the liberal outcry on this one. I also don't think it inflamed the protests alone, considering Obama's crew is out there as agents provocateur, so it's really hard to say what is responsible for looting and rioting. IMO, they don't release that video if the media didn't make him out to be a gentle giant.

    like i said, this whole thing is being exploited by various parties, which is sad but that's how it is these days. Funny how Holder will show up for this but not for the border....unless to arm the cartels with weapons.

    agree about the dash cam, though it's possible that will be released in time and makes Wilson look even better. or maybe he's like "get your coon ass out of the street" before the fight.
    There is NO dash cam video!!!! They didn't install them because they claim it costs them $3,000.00 each to install... Now I don't dispute that there's a cozy contract with some company that overcharges the out of it, but it's ridiculous that they have money for SWAT teams and military teams, but no money for something that's literally there to bring transparency and accountability. Heck, it could've easily exonerated the cop right here.

    The whole 'state of mind' thing is a distraction. There's going to be a toxicology report, and we'll know if he was high/drunk/etc... and it's useless because it tells you absolutely nothing of what happened. Nothing. You can't even say the cop stopped them because of that, because the shop owner didn't even report that until after the whole thing went down. Personally, I think it backfired. It reeked of excuse, it came like a week after the events, after the cops were basically in an omerta. That's just IMO.

    Stop asking stupid questions. Everyone saw how much you your pants when you thought people had discovered your true iden y. If you were a cop doing your job in Ferguson would you want all of your personal info given to the public by Anon?

    the journalist who erroneously reported a dozen witnesses confirm darrin's story has been put on a timeout



    maybe she'll correct her mistake and say 24 witnesses confirm officer darrin's story and not a dozen as she originally reported

    blacks are also given harsher sentences for committing the same exact crime as whites.

    More stupid questions I see. What would you want to hide if there were people rioting in your city and hated you?
