no it isn't because i know plenty of white thugs as well. more so when i was growing up than i do now.

there is no subsitute. more race card non-sense.

the white guy that robs is as much of a thug as a black person.

someone should try a real dictionary
Thug - Definition and More from the Free Merriam-Webster Dictionary

a brutal ruffian or assassin

wow look at that no race baiting at all.
 
re: Missouri cop was badly beaten before shooting Michael Brown[W:150]

There are some problems I have with this.

1. We are getting information from an anonymous source. While I can understand why one would want to remain anonymous, at the exact same time, it doesn't really help me in believing this story.

2. Where is the evidence in terms of hospital records and what not?

3. Why wasn't this revealed at the very beginning. Wouldn't it have helped the cops to have stated this from the start?

4. The only place I can find this being sourced back to is conservatives news site and blogs. While that doesn't mean that it is false, the fact that it being promoted by those who have a political agenda to bear, it also causes me to not really have much faith in this story.

The Thugs travelled in groups across India for six hundred years.[1] Although the Thugs traced their origin to seven Muslim tribes, Hindus appear to have been associated with them at an early period.
They were first mentioned in Ẓiyāʾ-ud-Dīn Baranī's History of Fīrūz Shāh dated around 1356.[2] In the 1830s they were targeted for eradication by William Bentinck and his chief captain William Henry Sleeman. They were seemingly destroyed by this effort.[1][3]
The Thugs would join travelers and gain their confidence. This would allow them to then surprise and strangle their victims by pulling a handkerchief or noose tight around their necks. They would then rob their victims of valuables and bury their bodies. This led them to also be called Phansigar (English: using a noose), a term more commonly used in southern India.[4]

There is a historical reference ...but it doesn't describe modern American black men.

If Brown had been killed by anybody besides a white cop, the Left would be saying, "oh well, just another dead nigger".

And again showing you do not know the evidence.
I do not even have to provide the Officers account to show you are wrong.
Listen to his cohort.
One shot during the struggle.
He then got out.






And then we have the video with a witness in the background, telling everybody that Brown had turned and was running at the Officer.




So stop with the bs and making **** up.
The shooting was clearly justified and you clearly do not know of what you speak.

Is one of the synonyms for thug "Buck Ewer"? I think it really should a synonym, with him drawing violent and dangerous conclusions and attempting to convict Wilson, before the full set of evidence is released.

Or Wilson could be hovering above Brown when he fired the fatal shot... like a bumble bee.
Even if bent over, no one charges with their face down.
Witnesses will confirm that Brown was face down on the street for the last shot.

Hell, that depiction does not even allow for what Baden has said, he could have been bent over charging the office.

That depiction is simply nonsense.

As you were already told.

The autopsy did not say that the shot was fired when Brown was face down. This is what Baden said:

“This one here looks like his head was bent downward,” he said, indicating the wound at the very top of Mr. Brown’s head. “It can be because he’s giving up, or because he’s charging forward at the officer.”

Also, there was no shot to the chest. Stop fabricating lies.

nope i am simply correcting what he posted the definition of thug being because it is not correct. so i cited an actual dictionary. if you notice he posted no such source for where he got it from. probably the urban dictionary or something which is complete bunk as it distorts and changes the definition of words for so called "street" language which has no place in an actual discussion.

I would like to know where all the outrage is about that black boy that beat the crap out of that black forest ranger because he asked them to stop skateboarding in the park.
where is the rioting over that? where is al sharpton and jesse jackson denouncing black on black violence which is way more pervasive than the other.

these people are hypocrits.

Funny. When I knew of Hannity using the word "thug" in the past (which he has done MANY times), he used it to describe the Occupy Wall Street protestors, and also used the word when describing the actions of some Unions. So, let me get this straight...Unions and the OWS crowds are comprised of "black teens"? Interesting.

it depends. if this suspect was beating his face in and attempting to grab his gun or other weapon then yes he has every right to defend himself just like any normal person.

we don't know all the evidence.

He told them to get off the sidewalk and continued on a short distance. Where he then became informed of the robbery suspects.

Off the sidewalk?:lamo
Where in Wilson's report did it say anything about being informed about robbery suspects?
Oh there is no report? Gee whiz...

That is not what the reliable evidence says, ior what the unreliable evidence says.

The reliable evidence says he got out and Brown turned and ran at the Officer, as the Officer fired at him.

What is " reliable evidence"? Is that Excon-speak for evidence that lets the murderer of a young black man go free? HA!

actually it kinda is as it is related. the only difference is that it was a black on black crime. yet we don't see the same moral outrage and protests over that.

Well, " Conservative " ( your'e showing your political agenda ) sources have been far more accurate than left wing sources on this issue.

Remember when this first started he " was running away and shot in the back ", he "accidentally " kicked the car door shut, he had hid hands up, he didn't just strong arm rob a store and he didn't just punch a cop in the head.

Remember, he was a " Gentle Giant " on his way to College and some evil Cop assassinated him.

Sources like HuffPo perpetuated that myth, ran front page " Arrest Him " headlines.

Wow! You proved the hell out of my point!

I don't. The outcry was not so much about the shooting, but about the riots.

Look at the angle Parcells indicates in the press conference. Clearly he points from the top of the head towards the forehead ( front of the brain).
He is the guy who did the examination.
I take his word for it.
