Don't be naive. You know the black community does not cooperate with cops. It is common knowledge.

Why would i have to know this one community. It is pretty clear from their actions it is true.

Now you are not just speaking for the residents of Ferguson, MO but instead you are speak for all blacks with a stereotype. :lol:

I'm not the naive one.
 
There are only two accounts available, the ONE witness, Johnson, and the officer who we have not heard from and won't until the investigation has concluded.
Tiffany Mitchel was only about ten feet from the murder and her account of the matter supports Johnson's account as to what happened.
You can't say this is a "he said, he said" situation, there are other witnesses.

She said that the cop fired SEVERAL shots at Michael Brown AFTER he stopped, turned and put his hands in the air continuing to shoot until he dropped on his face.

Mason believes he knows how all black people think.
Where I come from ... we have a name for that.
 
The FBI interviewed the witnesses.

The cop's name is being witheld for obvious reasons.
The cop's name is being withheld against Missouri law.
The indecent report filed by the cop is a matter of public record.
 
Hey, he's the one that made the argument. He can't tell one black person from another even if they are... oh you know.. different people. Now back in your hole until you decide to debate me on Nazis.

Regardless you're still race baiting, and you know it. This is so typical of someone who has no ground to stand on with their argument. You start personal attacks (racist) to call the persons character into question. Typical leftwing strategy that honestly americans are tired of.

You are denying that blacks don't snitch to cops?
 
Moderator's Warning:
This thread now has fewer participants. Keep personally attacking each other if you'd like to join them.
 
There have been at least three credible witnesses who have come forward.
All of them corroborate the same story of a clear case of 1st degree murder.
There is no reason why 1st degree murder charges and immediate arrest of the offending officer should not take place ...NOW!
 
People are too quick to dismiss the EYEWITNESS accounts of what happened. In their eyes, since other black people rioted and looted, all black people in the area are incapable of telling the truth. Meanwhile, the officer had a swollen face, so obviously Mr. Brown drug the officer away from his squad car until he was shot the proper amount of times. In fact, the local police did such a perfect job that the Governor gave them tonight off.

Get with the program. :lol:


No one's " dismissing " the witness accounts.

Those accounts are being used to justify rampant looting and lawlessness and they're being used to convict the cop before there's a trial

The looting isn't justified. Neither is the rioting. Those accounts are consistent. It looks very bad for the cop.

His ass is toast.

Just a question of time.
 
Unlikely.
But since you made the ridiculous claim, prove it.

That guy is exercising his Second Amendment right. ;)
 
All black people look alike. I understand. But that's not him.

May I point out to the fact that the two people are not even the same color? Wait... conservative... tree house? Lol. Nvm. You're just trolling.[/QUOTE]1.) Trolling? No :naughty, that would be you.
2.) You apparently do not understand the word "supposedly". :doh
3.) Properly sourced. And the source has even updated their posting, removed the photo, and pointed out that it [U]may[/U] not have been accurate, since I posted it here. (May being the operative word here.)
[INDENT][INDENT][COLOR="#000033"][SIZE=2][FONT=Century Gothic][B]"Update: The social media photo posted throughout the blogosphere was not confirmed as the deceased Michael Brown and has been replaced. -ytz"[/B][/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR][/INDENT][/INDENT]
4.) As for you saying it isn't him? Prove it. The **** about not the same color as observed from a photo is nonsense. :doh
5.) Back to #2. What the **** did you not understand about the word "supposedly"?
 
Wow. I've never heard of crime before until you pointed out this one incidence in Ferguson. Must be a total madhouse down there. I mean one guy pointed a gun at officers. Must be indicative of how the entire community is right?

Thats actually 3 acts all within a weeks time. Read the article before you comment please. It helps to keep you from looking stupid.
 
It's 2014 and these cops don't have dash cams? They rough up reporters who are recording them at a McDonalds. It gives me the appearance that they are used to hiding behind the blue shield.

Once Mr. Brown broke away and was running away from the officer, it wasn't a life and death struggle for the officer. It was an execution.

The police couldn't be handling this any worse. Where is the elected leadership? We don't hear from them either. The Governor is finally going down there today. This is a complete debacle all the way around.

It will just be another Watts... I can understand getting upset, but the way to settle it is to destroy your neighborhood and rob the businesses there. GG for the morons.
 
Once the police lose control of a situation, scumbags seize the opportunity to steal. The scumbags are always looking for an opportunity to get away with something.

With that being said, not all of the protesters are scumbags. Peaceful marchers don't make for as good of TV though.

THIS^^^^^^

the shooting seems very shady on the surface but who knows
as far as the people taking part in the other CRIMES that is just plain stupid, its counterproductive and illogical and a huge case of plain old stupid.

You can't say this is a "he said, he said" situation, there are other witnesses.

She said that the cop fired SEVERAL shots at Michael Brown AFTER he stopped, turned and put his hands in the air continuing to shoot until he dropped on his face.

Who is Tiffany Mitchel, and when did she testify as an eyewitness under oath?
 
We were discussing were discussing the fact that un-normal and un-decent people come in all colors, educations, genders and careers.

No we weren't. We were discussing the rioting and looting in Ferguson. The color of the people looting and rioting, the education level of the people looting and rioting, the gender of the people looting and rioting, and the careers of the people looting and rioting was never mentioned by me until you brought it up. I used the words "decent" and "normal" and never once mentioned any of those things you just said.
 
Congressman wants to curb military surplus program

WASHINGTON (AP) — Images of police outfitted in paramilitary gear clashing with protesters in suburban St. Louis after the weekend shooting death of unarmed black teenager is giving new impetus to efforts to rein in a Pentagon program that provides free machine guns and other surplus military equipment to local law enforcement agencies.

Rep. Hank Johnson, D-Ga., says he plans to introduce legislation when Congress returns in September to curb what he describes as an increasing militarization of police agencies across the country.

"Our Main Streets should be a place for business, families and relaxation, not tanks and M16s," Johnson said Thursday. "Militarizing America's Main Streets won't make us any safer, just more fearful and more reticent."

Attorney General Eric Holder said he's concerned that use of military equipment by police in Ferguson, Missouri, is sending a "conflicting message." Holder said authorities there have accepted the Justice Department's offer of crowd-control help as it continues to investigate the Saturday shooting death of 18-year-old Michael Brown.
I'm also concerned about police department outfitting themselves for military-like action in the field. This is total overkill, and what do they think their mission really is?

Holy crap. THREE crimes? OMG. What a crazy p!ace. Nowhere has three crimes happened in one week. Especially after cops kill a kid. I mean killing people tends to calm everyone down right?

The cops are definitely acting suspect. A shooting happened and they have yet to question a single witness... And there were witnesses. Doesn't make any sense.
 
The looting isn't justified. Neither is the rioting. Those accounts are consistent. It looks very bad for the cop.

The lootings not justified ? How can you say that ? You and the looters share an opinion.

That opinion based on witness accounts DOES justify rioting apparently but the problem is those accounts are NOT complete.

I haven't heard one of the witnesses explain how the Police officer recieved his injuries.

What happened INSIDE the Police cruiser ? I bet you there was allot more than " arm wrestling " going on and I dont believe for one second that the door was kicked shut accidentally.

If this kid went for the officers gun the SHOOTING is justified, but there is not one witness account that mentions it.
