Re: Police not guilty in Kelly Thomas death; DA won't try 3rd officer
I see.Twas an allusion.
I see.Twas an allusion.
Still engaging in yet another evasion, I see.Do your homework on Kelly's felonious history
Report back
I think my point earlier is proven by now - video can be misinterpreted.Still engaging in yet another evasion, I see.
What does his past felonious history gotta do with your prior claim that the police were protecting themselves when all the while at the very moment Kelly was being battoned to the ground and pinned with crushing weight face down, tazed, brutally assaulted and crushed to death?
I don't know what you're talking about. When did I even respond or debate you on this topic before?I think my point earlier is proven by now - video can be misinterpreted.
Since you cannot BOTH be correct...I think?
You didn't.I don't know what you're talking about. When did I even respond or debate you on this topic before?
Please bear in mind ric's point about the six police officer having to protect themselves from this guy.You didn't.
Edit: To clarify, I had earlier responded to someone's post about how the video clearly showed X by pointing out that video can be manipulated or misinterpreted - and I responded to your post because it seems apparent that at least the second half of that statement must be correct, since ric27 and yourself are obviously in disagreement, while having seen the same video (I think?).
Obviously there is, since ric27 disagrees with you.Please bear in mind ric's point about the six police officer having to protect themselves from this guy.
The fact remains that the homeless guy was on the ground being heavily pinned down on his stomach. He was never once on his feet once down, was he? So, tell me, how can one argue that the six police officers were trying to protect themselves? Shouldn't the one trying to protect oneself be the one being brutally attacked by six big guys while all the time being pinned down to the ground until one was asphyxiated to death?
P.S. there is no other interpretation whatsoever of the video concerning the homeless guy being on the ground and pinned down.
As if you don't already know, people disagree even in the face of undenial proof. Disagreeing doesn't prove anything. You just have to use your common sense. How do you misinterpret a video about Kelly being on the ground and pinned face down? Either he was on the ground being pinned down or he was not. How can one misinterpret that?Obviously there is, since ric27 disagrees with you.
I'm not saying who is correct, if anyone, just that, obviously, it is possible to misinterpret a video.

Tis a very general comment.As if you don't already know, people disagree even in the face of undenial proof. Disagreeing doesn't prove anything. You just have to use your common sense.

I noted in one of your posts you stated you didn't want to watch the video. So, you're in no position to make any comment regarding the video.
There was brawl coming from Kelly Thomas. He was in the receiving end of savage and brutal attacks all the while by six police officers. Seriously, you are going with Rodney King trial as your argument point? Really?Believe it or not some of my hardest brawls have been with handcuffed individuals.
Unless you were there, feeling what the officer/officers felt (from a physical resistance point of view) you simply cannot judge or are in a position to say the officer was wrong and to terminate....remember, the video everyone thought would convict the officers in the Rodney King incident acquitted them in the state criminal trial.
NO incident is the same, none
Please watch the video, otherwise you won;t know what you're talking about.Tis a very general comment.
The misinterpretation may be intentional, or due to personal bias.
Making the statement I did is not dependent on whether I watched the video or not.Please watch the video, otherwise you won;t know what you're talking about.
An Opening argument is not evidence.For those who are interested in the opening argument of the Kelly Thomas trial, here's the video:

If you don't watch the video how are going to know what you're talking about? You're just making an argument based on ignorant. And also, stop trying to make stuff up. Ric didn't indicate disagreement that Kelly was on the ground and pinned face down. You're making stuff up.Making the statement I did is not dependent on whether I watched the video or not.
ANYTHING can be misinterpreted - whether that misinterpretation is intentional or unintentional.
The apparent disagreement between you and ric27 indicates that one of you must be at least partially misinterpreting the video.
Did I say it was? Learn to read and comprehend please.An Opening argument is not evidence.
:dohDid I say it was? Learn to read and comprehend please.
He did indicate, however, disagreement as to whether the police actions were justified or not. Unless I misunderstood.If you don't watch the video how are going to know what you're talking about?

No it wasn't.The mood of this confrontation is initiated by the first cop saying "Now see my fists? They're getting ready to (expletive) you up". That sets up everything.
Yes, this is the officer I want cuffing me and throwing me in the back seat to do what he just threaten.
No it wasn't.
It was Kelly being uncooperative and playing his games.
Which is exactly why the Officer issued a hollow threat in an attempt to gain compliance from Kelly.
Ha ha ha ha . What is amazing is your inability to see the evidence that is there.'Hollow'.
Right.
Amazing how you perfectly understand his intent without actually being there.
Fascinating!
