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

So anytime black people hear the word "fight," that's their trigger to riot? What is this, The Manchurian Candidate?

Anytime Ferguson rioters hear boxing lingo from an open racist, yes, that means literal violence.

Ignorance is not always the result of stupidity.

Protesting 'the cops' is an ignorant and bigoted position for anyone to take. Supporting that position is equally ignorant and bigoted.

Think of it as protesting the police force. People take things too personally. There's nothing wrong with protesting any job performance, politically or NFL.

Unless you're innocent and mistreated (e.g. falsely arrested), you don't need a lawyer if you haven't done a damn thing wrong.

The whole race-baiting continuum is absurd. From Lyndon Baines Johnson's "I'll have those niggers voting Democrat for the next 200 years", to Sharpton's race baiting, to Ferguson rioting over a bully getting shot while trying to kill a cop.

The very protest itself is about killing cops.

What? That's utterly ****ing delusional on an almost metaphysical level.

That's literally what this whole thing is about. Brown tried to kill a cop, and the protesters are defending him. This whole Ferguson thing is based on killing police, and so Sharpton calling for more violence against police fits the mold perfectly.

Still don't believe me? Look at what this very thread is about. Another black person tries to kill a cop, and protesters are out defending him. We have this guy on video pointing a gun at a cop and protesters are still out defending him.

"Trying to kill cops" is NOT what the vast, VAST majority of protesters are supporting. Have you literally been asleep the last few weeks?

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.

Some believe there is no systemic privilege, we live in a utopia of equal opportunity. Upon that childish fantasy is founded many an unfathomable position.

If there was systemic privilege then I would have gotten some of it by now. It simply does not exist, and so therefore the Ferguson protest is about defending cop killers.

OMG. No. Just, no.

1. The "whole Ferguson thing" was about the lack of indictment of a police officer shooting an unarmed person. A lot of people did not buy the grand jury verdict, and they're not entirely in the wrong about that. The protesters certainly were not out there saying "boy, we're glad Michael Brown tried to kill a cop and we want more of that." You're simply making that up.
2. "NY cops murdered continued it"? What the hell does this even mean in regards to "continuing it"? The Garner incident apparently has gone down the memory hole, never to be seen again.

You seem to have a very strange idea of how these events have transpired and why.

As I said.

So, who wants to fix it.

I haven't seen any evidence of this "systemic privilege" you speak of. Care to make a case?

Because the shooting was justified. That's not something to protest about. Instead, protest bullies who have a physical fight inside the police car, further fight the cop outside the car, and protest also the false witness statements.

Disagree with a grand jury decision doesn't justify burning down a town.

In the wake of Furgeson, Sharpton called for cops to be killed, and then cops were killed. This makes Sharpton a domestic terrorist.
 
If I lived in or around Ferguson I would be disturbed by the violence and wouldn't know what to do. We have seen some positive images come out of the protests such as the cop hugging the black youth. We don't know their motives or if they are cop haters who will never accept any facts, or if they are trying to unite against the violence and feel powerless in the process. I'll save judgement.

I just know if the cops negatively profile all the protestors and the entire community, and the community negatively profiles all the cops, then it's going to lead to serious long term issues in Ferguson. I really hope that is not the case.

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.

The grand jury found that the shooting was justified. A lot of people disagreed.

And now you've jumped the shark into outright lying. "Sharpton called for cops to be killed" is a blatant, bald-faced lie. Period, end of discussion.

Right, Brown was trying to kill a cop and the protesters are defending Brown, QED the protesters are defending cop-killing.

Sharpton's Ferguson march in NY: "What do we want? Dead cops! When do what them? Now!" and then 2 cops were executed in their patrol car.

So of course a black teen is going to be emboldened to pull a gun on a cop at a gas station.

You cannot possibly be this obstinate.

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

Not Sharpton's march. Sharpton was leading a march in DC at the time, and it wasn't a march led by his organization. We've been over this, repeatedly.

That's exactly why they're wrong.

There is no such thing as white privilege and they're defending cop-killing both in word and deed by torching their own town (and seriously how ****ing retarded do you have to be to torch your own town) and by literally killing cops. Ferguson protesters couldn't be any more on the wrong side of history if they tried.
