The Michael Brown Shooting Official Thread

[Karee 4,190]

Just like uppity. I'm here to inform.

hehehe. That brings back memories.

You know how it goes. That's why they released the video. Now the cop is having fundraisers and support from all over. All they had to do is paint Brown like a thug.

Seems Mr. Brown did a fine job as painting himself as a thug.

So stealing is considered being a thug? We need to establish some ground rules.

You must have missed the part in the video where he's intimidating and pushing around a store clerk half his size.

FTR, I consider that a thug. Maybe it's normal behavior around those parts. That might be part of the problem.

I call that being a bully.

Ok then. He's a bully and a thief. I think what he did is called strong arm robbery. Not as simple as your basic shoplifting. Then he went and assaulted a cop. Seems like a real upstanding citizen.

Never said that. But for a cop whose eye socket was fractured, he didn't seem too hurt when he was walking around the body.

I didn't realize getting your eye socket busted affected your legs. I'll have to re-take that anatomy class.

You're the only one here to post that. But are you ok with making that determination all on your own from the comfort of your living room, hundreds or thousands of miles away? I mean, unless you were actually there when it went down but are sworn to secrecy...

What's it like being so easily riled up?

Let me know what your grade is. We'll trade notes.

For what it's worth; the use of "Oriental" is pejorative and offends many people. Many people would consider it similar to referring to someone as a Negro.

I broke my leg in the military back in the 90's, and the surgeon doing the surgery to fix my leg entered on his chart that a 19 year old Oriental male broke his leg, followed by the medical procedure. This was at Ft. Benning, GA. I thought/still do think it was quite humorous to be called Oriental (I kept a copy of my medical file).

If you are uhhhhh you know, it is stealing and thuggery.

If you are killing, committing genocide and driving away natives, it is growth and establishing a fine nation, not stealing or committing murder.

I'd have a super hard retort if I knew what you were talking about.

Is that because you're black?
