Rodney King is a choir boy compared to Michael Brown. :S

Really getting tired of them saying unarmed too. If you're attacking an officer and trying to take their gun you're not exactly harmless.

Damn skippy. A big ass 300 lb dude that won't listen and seems hell bent on bullying the cop and causing bodily harm? Fuck it, neutralize the threat by any means available.

As opposed to a huge dude whose behavior makes the officers think he's on PCP?

RK had been in prison prior to the "big event" that catapulted him into both the spotlight and the hospital. The cops noted his "buffed out" build and made that assumption too (one for two isn't all that bad).

And he was arrested multiple times after that.

I don't think "choir boy" applies to either of them.

With a history of police harassment, you're gonna have a hard time finding a choir boy in the inner city poor neighborhoods.



Ok
now we have moved from insinuations of black kids being murdered regularly to them being harassed regularly

I look forward for those stories and studies

Unnless of course this too is just a talking point that people accept

Harassment causes criminal behavior in a large scale? I don't believe that for a minute. Exposure to criminal behavior in a large scale, making it seem normal, may contribute to criminal behavior on a large scale. But I don't believe harassment causes it...

There are plenty of good people in inner city poor neighborhoods that didn't go off the rails. It is largely a choice, fed into by upbringing and environment.
If some old guy can do it then obviously it can't be very extreme. Otherwise he'd already be dead.

Take a few minutes to see how the black man has been treated in this country. Don't miss the bits in the justice system either.
There was a time here in the south when a cop could string a man up without any questions.
For some reason, the black community learned to fear the cops.
I don't believe they did that on their own accord.

I wonder if this had happened in Detroit whether we'd be having the same convo. This seems to be more about the south.

As someone who lives about 1 hour from the gulf of Mexico I can tell you that NO one here thinks Missouri is in the South either. :D



Hell, a guy I know in New Orleans thinks EVERYBODY north of I-10 are fucking yankees. :D:D:D

More plesant behavior from these poor harassed people

The Ferguson protest movement held a meeting tonight at St. Mark Family Church on Glen Owen Drive.

The protesters took time out from their meeting to beat a college student.
Then they chased him down the street screaming.

Finally the man was rescued at the local Walgreens.

There is a metric shit ton of opinions on the issue of racism causing the majority of Detroit's issues, I'm not familiar with those.
I didn't realize Missouri was in the South either.
:P



Missouri was a slave state. Missourians fought on both sides in the War of Southern Unpleasantness.

Well, first it is in the link

doesn't matter why he was attacked. You want police to wear go-pros to record interactions with civilians but not allow cameras into meetings of 'legitimate' protestors???

that would be a bit of a double standard, wouldn't it?
