Typical of you to blame the victim and to characterize someone with dark pigmented skin as a "thug", just because he happened to be a big guy. That didn't keep him from getting shot to death by a punk racist cop with probable ties to the local Klan. Tell me...what was the purpose of leaving his lifeless body in the street for FOUR HOURS after he was dead?
As for the sniper, it could have been anyone. I suspect that not all the police in Ferguson are racist. Maybe some of them were inclined to speak out, and maybe they were silenced.
Absolutely not..... I characterized his behaviour as that of a thug because he had just committed a strong armed robbery. I don't condone criminal activity based on color.....I leave that for you, the black defender no matter what.
You are the one that consistently wants to give "dark pigmented" guilty thugs a break, while name calling whites and accusing them of being in the Klan. It's all about race with you...not about actions.
A dead lifeless body in the street for 4 hours. I have no clue. Either way you would find fault. If they moved him quickly you would bitch about not preserving evidence. I don'the know how many officer involved shooting deaths have occurred in Ferguson....and that lack of experience would cause delays.
The cops that were shot were not from Ferguson.
How would anyone have known where those white cops standing in front of the Ferguson PD in helmets and flak jackets were from?
And who's sure the shooters were black?
Who cares as long as you shoot a cop.
Yes, you have a good point. This is a war the cops wanted, I think.
And they will lose.
Probably so....cops don't ambush people, loot stores, and burn buildings. Residents will be hard pressed to earn a living in Ferguson.
Ferguson, as a community, is finished for years to come.
There has been much said about the percentage of officers who are white. I want to know the qualifications to be an officer and how many of the applicants have been black and rejected because they could not qualify.
I have to admit how sad it is that so many of those protesting, seemingly intelligent people, still believe that Brown was shot in the back and had his hands up. One apparently reasonable speaking woman said she didn't care that two officers were shot.
This could cure the problem.
Semi-retired President Obama should have a come to Jesus meeting with his good buddy Al Sharpton. Al Sharpton would then go to Ferguson, lead a march and then hold a press conference with as many media outlets as possible.
Then Al Sharpton tells the crowd that Brown was NOT surrendering, he did NOT have his hands up and that he was charging Daren Wilson. Have AL tell them the way to a better life.
Then have the other race baiters deliver the same message around the country. Of course it won't happen, President Obama has shown that this current state of chaos.
