Police: Officer in Missouri shot, Killed man who Pulled Gun..... [W:22]

That's exactly why they're wrong.

There is no such thing as white privilege and they're defending cop-killing. Ferguson protesters couldn't be any more on the wrong side of history if they tried.

So, from the get-go, the protests in Ferguson were because the protesters actually thought Brown was trying to kill a police officer and were ok with it? Yes or no, please.
 
What does your race baiting have to do with my post? Did you quote me on accident?

I just want to know when Obama is gonna start sending me my White Privilege checks, because here in SD Natives literally are cut a check just for being a native and I'd like a piece of that.

You cannot possibly be this obstinate.

The protesters didn't believe that Brown was trying to kill a cop. THAT'S THE ****ING POINT.

Yeah, even with video of Brown threatening violence towards the store worker just minutes prior, they still want to give Brown the benefit of the doubt, over a cop's word, that he was a gentle giant surrendering with his hands up. :doh

Rioters don't own anything, they're the common criminals of any town and city. If you're referring to blacks as a group, I haven't seen any stats on property ownership.

Yes. That's why the witnesses lied to investigators, so that the black community through Brown could get away with killing a cop. The poor Black community has long supported killing cops. Just listen to their music, watch them lie to investigators, watch them burn their own businesses down, hear them chant "what do we want? Dead cops! When do we want it? Now!", go to OP and watch a video of a black teen pull a gun on a cop.

Ironic that the witnesses having lied is a big part of why there was no indictment. They made their own bed on this one.

That's utterly absurd.

That's just your opinion, not fact, and is dismissed as such.

How was Brown supposed to "get away" with "killing a police officer"? Brown was (and still is) dead, and he didn't kill anybody.
 
Jerry said:
Killing cops is what the whole Ferguson thing is about. Trying to kill a cop is what started it, NY cops murdered continued it, this attempt to kill a cop furthers it even more.

Wow. What's wrong with your analytical skills? No, the Ferguson thing is about getting cops who kill black people at least investigated, ideally indicted and facing a trial where the truth - whatever it is - can come out. Black people (and many of us who are not black) are tired of cops getting away with killing people without being brought to trial.

First of all, I love your work:

Secondly, in the case of Brown, the cop was investigated, yet the black community still rioted. This tells me that assuring proper investigation is not their goal, they want vengeance.

They want dead cops, just listen to what they say, look at what they do.

The entire protest is about holding police responsible for their actions...

Police are held responsible. In both the Garner and Brown cases, the resoonding officers were reviewed by grand juries, per our judicial system. Whatelse do you want? Skip the whole process and go straight sentencing?

The protestors want to abolish the equal protection clause.

The very clause white people made so as to guarantee recently freed black slaves would have full citizenship rights and protections.

If Brown had killed Wilson, those people would have lied, possibly allowing Brown to walk.

If the communists are successful, we'll have race laws in this country that resemble Nazi Germany.

The fact that you just said that if communists have their way, they'll have Nazi stuff just illustrates how utterly ignorant you are.

Oh I listen very well. Blacks wanted Wilson investigated, you say. Wilson was investigated, and was not charged, so Blacks burnt their own town down. Then TeamSharpton calls for police to be killed, and as a direct result, police are killed. This all encourages another black teen to pull a gun on a cop, which gets him killed by said cop, and blacks start lobbing fireworks into the gas station.

And we're back to square one.

Please tell me when Sharpton called for police to be killed, and also illustrate how Al Sharpton has Negro Mind Control that no matter what he says or doesn't say, black people are going to start shooting cops because why not, I guess.

The idea that Sharpton using a clear sports metaphor as a dog whistle for murder might be the dumbest thing I've ever read here. So, congratulations, you've taken the gold.

My point is that the justice system has crapped all over black Americans for decades. They are routinely sentenced and jailed at disproportional rates (even for non-violent and/or drug related crime), they are much more likely to be killed by police than their white counterparts, and many often see themselves as victims of undue harassment from LEOs. There is a deep-seated mistrust among many in the black community of the justice system -- one that makes it far less likely they'll just unquestioningly accept that same justice system's findings at face value.

Merry Christmas to you as well.

Also hope you had a good Christmas.

And as for your point - it's the old chicken and egg argument - what came first, rampant criminal activity among black communities in large cities or police focus on black communities in large cities? As Rudy Guilliani likes to say, there's a police presence in black communities because that's where crime is. Some of our posters from Chicago could tell you that there are some areas of Chicago where the crime is so rampant police won't go. How's that working out?

America has a unique history that may speak to part of the problem, but seriously, in 2014, how long are people going to live in the past. Maybe this century's MLK is needed - there's sure nothing remotely close to him now.
