The Michael Brown Shooting Official Thread

[spookyturtle 9,466]

Come on down to the South baby.

I'm sure it is different than it is up here, although there are incidents here too.

[GandD 5,966]

Are you saying he was?

I don't think myself nor Marv said he was.

You're talking to yourself?

[Karee 4,191]

And again, I think from a previous post I have acknowledged ghetto folks come in all colors.

That I can agree with. A lot of my extended family is ghetto.

I thought the cop didn't know he was a robbery suspect?

My comment is for all of the people who is saying he should be killed because he beat up a store clerk, which he did not. You did not hear me say the police officer had personally identified this kid as a robbery suspect. If you did see this, please re-post it. Some people say he should be killed for stealing cigars. Stealing doesn't even amount to the death penalty in the Middle East, they chop your hand off.

thanks

From Thailand? Please identify your extended family.

I've been following this thread pretty closely, and I haven't seen anyone say the guy deserved to be shot because he beat up a store clerk. I think he was shot because he assaulted or attempted to assault a cop. I know that doesn't fly with your fantasy of how this went down. Sorry.

There is mutual hate here. A lot. I've been harassed by groups of black guys before. It was my fault for being white. I'm sure they get the same thing from whites and I certainly don't pick up on the hatred from all blacks. But there are people here black and white that will hate you 100% because of the color of your skin. And both sides will act like it's some sort of earned or defensive hate. It's a lie of course, hate is hate and it's all ugly.

No, from Detroit. I'm the USC, my wife is Thai.

I love how they paused the video to make it look like he is punching the clerk and when you play it he clearly pushed the guy out of his way. I had no idea shoving someone warranted a on the spot death sentence.

I took the bolded part above to mean why the cop shot him. It sounds that way to me they way you wrote it.

[Janelle2002 3,865]

Correct. However, take the advice from my post, because if this story is true, it would merit the death sentence he received:

Okay. So in this case, the couple that rushed the two little Amish girls should have been shot too. Why is this police officers, well living life better than these two girls?

"GrandD". My wife would like that.

Cool, so he wasn't a decent person.

Sorry, this is what the public (he had it coming) people are saying, not me.

I have no doubt that is true. It is sad and ugly. It is a deep rooted, complex problem.

[The Nature Boy 4,224]

I just saw this on CNN. It'll be dismissed out of hand because it doesn't fit the racist agenda.

Again, facts don't matter. A white cop shot a black guy. That's all that matters.

Also I just heard the radio show call, from the friend of the officer. It was from 3 days ago. She says, clearly the autopsy will show he was not shot in the back and she said the final shot was to the head. Something none knew 3 days ago. She said, brown slammed the officer back into the car and went for his gun, and it went off. Then Brown ran away, but turned and rushed the officer and only went down, after the final head shot just feet from the officer. Something another eyewitness can be overhead saying on tape.

It's mostly prominent in young kids. Kids are dumb and they think they own the world.
