Yep, that's my thought as well.

Did he deserve to pay the price with his life? No.
But do I feel a lot of sympathy for him? No.

If you dabble in crime and hooliganism, you go in knowing things might end badly for you.

(If, indeed, the claim made about this guy is true)

There is proof that Brown and the witness are/were thieves. That's not speculation, and I'm sorry, but I don't trust thieves. They don't deserve to die, but they can't be trusted either.

Proof that Brown was a thief? How do you figure?

May or May Not..............

the point is Who the freak Cares.......... It's speculation and our minds shouldn't be there. In my opinion EVERYBODY would be better served if we all worked collectively in pacifying the area. Plenty of time for the other stuff in a month. We have too many people willing to fly off the handle on speculation.

Man, that's what it ALL revolves around now. Jumping the gun. Sharmeka Moffitt is a prime example. There were millions of tweets and facebook shares of people ready to throttle every white person in Louisiana, within 12 hours of Moffitt's story releasing, until the news got out that she burned herself and vandalized her own car with racist words.

Had the story not been so quick to say a white cop gunned down an unarmed black teenager and made it about race, this story wouldn't be news outside of St. Louis. I blame the media.

The link you posted says alleged robbery. I guess you have already made your decision.

That's the entire point of this story, and why he was stopped by this cop. His friend, with Brown's help, took a box of cigars, therefore he is a thief, and untrustworthy. I've made my decision that his story isn't very credible, but he didn't have to be black, nor a thief for me to come to that conclusion.

So the pictures of him committing the robbery are fake?

How do you know it's him?

I'd like to say the LEAST covered angle of this story ... is the vindication of the power of the 2nd Amendment.

Nevada:
The police (Feds) bring their paramilitary equipment to the Bundy Ranch in Nevada. Small government, well armed, citizens rally around the ranch and even take up sniper positions against agents. Feds back down and go home.


Missouri:
The police bring their paramilitary equipment to Ferguson. Almost nobody is armed. If they are, it isn't with serious equipment. Police run rampant and generally do whatever the hell they damn well please, regardless of laws and the Bill of Rights.



When people fear their government there is tyranny. When government fears their people there is liberty.

If you took race out of the equation entirely, then simply broke it down by "class", what do the numbers look like? I'd guess it would be pretty close to the same as a racial breakdown for burglaries, robberies, petty larceny, car heists, low level drug dealing distribution, etc.

Now one large problem with that is the other unignorable fact that the population is not anywhere close to 50-50. Take out all other "races" or check boxes and it's something like White/Caucasian 70%+-, while those that id as Black it's around 13%, I believe.

Another problem with that is the rate of violent crime. Haven't looked but I'm going to guess that murder rates and other gun related crimes do not reflect % wise as to how many whites are "poor" and committing these crimes as to the % of Blacks.

Be an interesting study if it could be done legitimately.

Call me a cynic but I don't believe it can be. There is an element in this country that wants to keep the racial animus alive in order to further their own goals.

what is your stance?

On?

really? are you that dumb or did the southern babies affect you? This board is full of a bunch of uneducated, white, dumb ass, trailer hitching, incest breeding, did I say non educated? trailer trash, cowardish, cowards you will find... I hope I didn't mention ya'll folks were cowards.... If so, let me get my gun... I probably don't need it against you string beans.

Headache and a little dehydrated this A.M.? haha.

Who or what was this semi-intelligible collection of blather directed to?

That is funny. But, remember, his friends said he was non-violent and would never hurt anyone...
