Missouri Police Officer guns down unarmed 18 year old

Since you said it answer the question.

BTW - Where are the riot/looting pictures from the Zimmerman trial??

Link to back up these random numbers you are throwing out.

I'll wait. :whiste:

http://www.fbi.gov/stats-services/crimestats

All right there for the viewing (you'll want to look at the Uniform Crime Reports). The group that makes up about 3% of the population and accounts for half of the crimes noted: Black males between the ages of 18-34. More if you include teenagers.

I'm trying to find these numbers you throwing out anywhere on that site and I cannot find them. How about a direct link or screenshot.

Where are the riots in Staten Island?
Where were the riots during the Zimmerman trial?
Do upper-middle class blacks commit more crimes then whites?

You see riots by white kids when their teams lose hockey games

Read what I wrote again and you'll see why your response was essentially null.

Can somebody explain to me why a city that is 67% black has a police force that is 94% white? That is a god damn disgrace! This is a bunch of racist white apartheid types terrorizing a black minority and it has got to stop. Fire the police chief today and half of the force tomorrow. Demand (at the point of a gun), that half the department be filled IMMEDIATELY with black candidates. No IFs, ANDs or BUTs.

 

[Reasonable Doubt]

Probably the certain communities that make up a small percentage of the population but account for nearly 50% of some crimes. ~3-4% of the population account for ~50% of murders and ~50% of robberies. I'll bet you can figure out for yourself who these 3-4% are. Maybe that's what was meant about "certain communities."

you are way off the mark with your comments. its not the police who are the problem but the residents who embrace thuggery and lawlessness.

The point is "unarmed teens" kill people all the time and are extremely dangerous. The adult thug tried to take the cops gun and got shot = good shoot.

By definition, unarmed teens never SHOOT and kill people. As far as your last statement, I'm a pretty law and order conservative libertarian willing to give the cops the benefit of the doubt but I don't think this is at all cut and dried. For one thing, we have only the cop's word that this even happened, let alone that his interpretation of any scuffle is correct; since the kid is dead, he can hardly gainsay the cop. There are apparently witnesses who contradict his story though. Also, the kid appears to be big as a tank, which makes one suspect that he would be capable of wrestling away a gun. Assuming there WAS a scuffle, could be as innocuous as the cop gets scared, pulls his gun, kid gets scared, pushes gun away, and runs away. Can't be a good shoot if the cop lied - or is simply wrong.

For another, morally it's gray ground as to at what point shooting him is acceptable. Even assuming he did try to take the cop's gun, does that make him a mortal threat to the public or to the cop? Can't be a good shoot if it's not morally justified.

For a third, legally it may be a bad shoot. Cops get a LOT of latitude, but they are also bound by strict guidelines and standards of behavior simply because they are authorized to use deadly force on our behalf. Can't be a good shoot if it's not legally justified, and in most cases shooting a fleeing suspect in the back is not legal barring some great mitigating factor (in the eyes of a reasonable man) justifying the suspect as a mortal threat to the public or to the cop. (Note that this also has to be within the cop's knowledge.) This far the kid appears to be straight, without any mitigating factors other than he's a teenager, he's very large, he's black, and he doesn't ever seem to smile. None of those things make him a mortal threat to the public or to the cop.

Seems to me there's about a 90% appearance of about as bad a shoot as one can make.

Maybe due to a lack of qualified black applicants?

probably right on the mark...applicants need to be able to read and write the english language and guess who cannot do this?

Because a if the African American population considers getting an education "Selling out" and wanting to sell drugs/commit crimes instead of getting a legit job, how do you expect to fill those positions with african americans?????

The cop had a fucked up face, he was physically assaulted by the thug.

There is zero evidence of any shooting in the back when fleeing. The media and crump did the same thing with skittle boy (remember...shot on porch in the back doing nary a thing wrong?), get it out there fast and tell it often enough people think it's true.

So far it looks like a good shoot.
You suckas are lapping it up again without learning a damn thing.

What likely happened is the thug assaulted the officer and tried to retrieve his weapon in an effort to murder the officer. Officer fires multiple shots and the thug runs away collapsing some 30 feet from where he was shot.

What's more likely?
a) thug attacks police officer forcing the officer to use deadly force
b) Police officer chooses to fuck up his life by shooting somebody fleeing from a good distance who is clearly no threat

Think about it. Which one is really the most likely outcome? If you're honest, know what reality and truth are, it can only be the first one.

Without these "Warrior Cops", who would protect and serve the citizens?

Fuck you very much. I have work to do, I can't be on here every second all the time. Even though I shouldn't even entertain your request because you are a douche bag, I'll do so for the benefit of all.

Here are the total figures for 2012.

http://www.fbi.gov/about-us/cjis/uc...he-u.s.-2012/tables/43tabledatadecoverviewpdf

That includes all ages and genders, meaning ~12% of the population. When you look at just adult black males to age 34, you get about ~3-4% of that population or about 1/3 of the entire black population. You'll see that most crimes are committed by adult males.

Who?

the black male population.


Yours is a racist generalization which says, in case you can't see if for yourself, that ALL black males can't read or write English. Dial it back, please.

Where do you get your facts about African Americans from.

That's probably THE most ridiculous thing I've read today.

How about an eye witness account. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-wlDI6hg18

None of the eye witnesses say what you are trying to say.

That's because they are lying. It's what they do. They will repeatedly state the thug was doing nary a thing wrong.

 

[Reasonable Doubt]

Which makes it WRONG nonetheless.

Completely wrong.

Funny to hear white people speak as if they know what black people think and aspire to do.

All most white people know about black people is what is fed to them on the television. And that is sooooo skewed it's not even funny!

 

[Svnla]

Reasonable Doubt, what is your reply to xBiffx (post # 215)?

Darn, Asians percentage were even less than Native Americans. Talk about a bunch of sell out, acting whites, not keep it real.

Several eye witnesses are lying. So they all got together and said we are going to lie on this cop.

Be real!

Absolutely. They know what to say when talking to police and they would NEVER incriminate one of their own. Sniches get stiches and all that. It's part of the culture. In their mind "one of us can do nary a thing wrong, just keep repeating that"
