cops do not get to execute people depending on their priors, none of what you're going on about has anything to do with that fact.

St. PAUL, Minn.Minnesota Gov. Mark Dayton said racism appears to have been a factor in the fatal shooting of a black man by a police officer Wednesday eveningwhere the aftermath was captured on video and livestreamed by the mans girlfriend.

Nobody should be shot and killed in Minnesota for a taillight being out of function, Mr. Dayton, said in a Thursday afternoon news conference.

Would this have happened if those passengers and the driver were white? I dont think it wouldve.

The governor said all the facts werent in, but added, Im forced to confront and I think all Minnesotans are forced to confront that this kind of racism exists.

The police never said he was 'holding a gun'. He was carrying one. What's the point of this thread?

About a week before this in New Orleans another 'Alton' was stopped. When the deputy tried to search him, this 'Alton', yet another black man on the street at midnight, prior criminal history, prior gun charges, pulled his stolen gun, shot the deputy three times, and killed him. No national news, no circling jets by Obama's "just us" department.

These guys were taking no chances. They saw the gun, they shot the guy. If the deputy had done that a week before he would still be alive and there would be two, not one, fewer "Altons" on the street.

This case has nothing to do with the gutter trash who was shot in Baton Rouge

Thought you said it was the wrong guy? Now you are posting that the original 911 caller said it was the guy selling CDs at the corner store. Which is it?

i'm not sure what you're talking about but i am sure it doesn't matter.

What? no interwebs in the Okefenokee?

The content available on a site dedicated to bringing folks to America should not be promoting racial discord, euro-supremacy, discrimination based on religion , exclusion of groups from immigration based on where they were born, disenfranchisement of voters rights based on how they might vote.
