Missouri Police Officer guns down unarmed 18 year old

[CitizenKain]

Interesting comment to share. This totally makes you a good and honorable person. I have the utmost respect for you.

Oh no, I'd lose the respect of someone like you.

 

[Jaskalas]

I'm not a fan of Al sharpton but I am glad he is there to stir up.

Stir up what, violence? We've got burning, looting, throwing bricks at a highway, shooting at helicopters, drive by shootings, pointing guns at police. It's really quite volatile.

 

[WackyDan]

I hope that lands on a cop.



Because some communities are targeted for decades by racist cops? Are you too stupid to figure this out, or what?
In those cases, did the pig who shot those kids disappear? Was their name released? Was tear gas shot at innocent people later on?

Speaks volumes about your mind in the matter... Hoping that cocktail lands on a cop. Calling them pigs...

Calling me stupid.

Let me explain it to you. How about for decades those cops have been attempting to contain the crime, drug use and dealing, gang violence that have plagued "those" neighborhoods. That may indeed have caused some cops to be pre judgemental to all that live in that community and it may have caused some to be racist - which is wrong.

On the other hand, the community also shares the burden of blame. If you let your community become a cesspool then you will be treated in kind.

Now... Do you get it or do you have anything intelligent to add? - or are you going to hurl more insults?

This is EXACTLY the kind of shit that is pissing me off.

You have no clue what the historical statistics are on officer involved shootings, so how could you even remotely state " obviously has gotten way out of control "

Go find me some hard evidence that police are out of control, if you can, I will never post on P&N ever again.

and EDIT: Radley Balko does not count as a good source

Dude, there's a treasure trove of credible evidence out there that says police culture is out of control. It's practically common sense.

You might as well have asked someone to go get you hard evidence that the earth is round and water is wet.

BTW another black man was just shot.

He pointed a gun at the cop, what do you expect.

Seem like if there was such a treasure trove of credible evidence you would have at least sited several sources.

White, yellow, brown, black. Should all be pissed at this.

That's where I think Sharpton and his ilk sometimes do a disservice.. They make it racial, they need to talk about the police state and lack of justice for EVERY American that these acts and injustice (where realized) are being seen and felt.

You'll never get the needed change for every American by dividing these injustices on racial terms. It will only become about whose getting it worse while everyone gets schtooped.

Wonder if the fuckstain in the whitehouse made any comment about one of his sons for this fallen officer killed by an "unarmed teen".

Mason pulled Belton over on a routine traffic stop. It was shortly after 12:00 am. Belton had no identification or drivers license. The vehicle Belton was driving turned out to be his mothers. Instead of taking Belton to jail Mason decided to turn him over to a parent who was said to be at a near by apartment building. Mason would learn there was no parent or guardian present. It was a ruse. When uncovered Belton fled with Mason in pursuit. A struggle ensued, they tumbled down the stairway shattering a plate glass window. As Mason laid dazed or unconscious from the fall Belton, who had no injuries, gained possession of Mason’s gun and shot him execution style in the head.

I agree with you about the police state, but it is racial. No way to sweep it under the rug now.

I'm sure he was an innocent young man, angelic, never caused any problems.

Thats what the police say, frankly I have zero trust these days in what police say. So believe the police pr bulldung all you want, I don't.

Do I need to provide you a source if I claim water is wet? Or should I just assume that if I actually need to provide a source for that claim that I shouldn't even bother because the person needing the source is obviously too dense to be reasoned with?

No sources for you! Nanny nanny poo poo

Explain to me something...

And there are more where those came from.

Explain to me why certain communities choose to riot and have violence...and some don't.

When you say "certain communities" do you mean the ones who burn the place to the ground and loot when their hockey team loses or when a surfing competition doesn't go their way?

What exactly do you mean??

Oh sure, its the communities fault that a racist cop shoots a kid. Its the communities fault that most of the police are white. Look at why is there is tension in the community, this shit has been boiling for awhile, and some idiot cop knocked the lid off. Now you have idiots driving around in armored vehicles looking like they are staging an invasion. But sure, its the communities fault that a cop shot a kid fleeing in the back.

You might have noticed that the kid there was arrested, and is serving a sentence. Not patted on the back and let go.

What exactly do you mean??

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."

BTW - Where are the pictures from the Staten Island riots where that guy was choked to death over cigarettes??

 

[Linux23]

On another note, the majority of African American deaths is at the hands of their own. How come they don't protest against the drug dealers selling drugs in their community or the gangstas shooting up the joint?

Why not protest against them and push them out of the neighborhoods?

yes because somehow we get all of these illegal drugs out of thin air? Poof, there goes a kilo of coke I can bag up and sell now.

didn't know there were any black owned gun makers, either. hmmmmm

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.

Those are pure mob mentality in immediate reaction to something stupid... Like losing a game... Or protesting the G* summit, etc.

What we are talking about here is people not even giving a fuck about due process... who care zero about learning the facts or letting the judicial system do it's job. At least in the LA riots they waited for the verdicts.

Point made was simply this... White kids get killed by police and you don't see riots. Is it simply that those in the rural areas just don't care or something else?

Try again. You don't have to try hard, just a good honest go will suffice.

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

Their won't be a link. I'll ask a question related to what's he's implying but is too chicken to say.

In upper middle class cities/neighborhoods does any race commit a disparate amount of crime?
