Never said or implied that...

It happens all the time. :1orglaugh

1 thing for sure is you do not attract unwanted attention to yourself if you are trying to get away with something you should not be doing/have just done. :pimp

I think the kid might have been on something, impaired/high/drunk or there was some psych issue. Common sense says do not act in a threatening manner to a cop.

"Justifiable Homicides" seem to be a rising trend recently!

We are riding different clouds homie.
I consider my argument to be ludicrous.

:1orglaugh

Not surprised.

No one should be shot over a stolen box of cigars.

However, after committing robbery and assaulting someone, then assaulting a police officer and fighting over his gun.... At a certain point in time this crosses the from from a simple crime to multiple felonies, and when you attempt to wrestle away a firearm from a police officer..... At that point you run the risk of getting shot.

There's nothing wrong with that! I grab store clerks by the throat all the time, it's completely normal and sane behavior.

Which is why I say he (Mr Brown) must have been in some way impaired.

No innocent person is going to get involved in a physical altercation with a LEO and attempt to control the LEO's firearm.

An individual that is impaired, even unarmed, is a potential serious risk to the public, LEO's, and themselves.

When they become agitated and aggressive there are few choices for a LEO acting alone.

No one deserves to be shot over stealing something. However, when someone tries to wrestle away a firearm from a police officer.... That's a different story.

Police Chief has already said the officer who shot Brown had no knowledge of him being a robbery suspect, so it has no bearing on the case. Also, it's not been verified yet that it's him.

Even if it is him being a thug bastard, that doesn't mean he should be shot. And you can't claim trying to wrestle the officers weapon as a defense when the guy was running away. Police should respond with deadly force only when confronted with equal deadly force. Shooting someone with no gun in their hand doesn't fall into that category.

Of course, leave it to Fox News to play up this part of the story --- and they'll end up with egg all over their face as usual. Notice how they have "comments closed" for this article? It's because the comments section would be filled with racist rhetoric.

They also have comments closed for this article: http://www.foxnews.com/health/2014/0...tcmp=obnetwork

Are they afraid that sex addicts will take over Fox News?

If Obama had a son...

It was confirmed it was him in the video. Same clothes and evidence stolen during the robbery was on Brown.

I don't get the disconnect where adult webmasters are so quick to judge people. Does it somehow escape your dysfunctional self medicated minds that we are also a misunderstood minority to whom the benefit of the doubt is seldom awarded?

Granted, we are less likely to be shot in the back for jay-walking, but still it seems most of us would like to see law enforcement behave with professionalism at all times or face the same penalties as anyone else when they don't.

The simple facts are:

You don't shoot someone in the back.

You don't shoot someone who is running from you.

You don't shoot someone because you lost a fight.

You don't apply the death penalty to anyone, ever, unless you are a jury of his peers, in a court of law.

Extra-judicial killings make us ALL less safe, less free, they are an affront to the concept of law, they undermine the credibility of all law enforcement everywhere, and are just plain murder.

If the guy had been shot in the face I would feel a lot different about it, but as it stands, this is fucked up shit, it's happening too much, and it needs to stop.

I said it before I will repeat it again. :2 cents:

You left one fact off your "simple facts" list:

Don't rob a store and then walk down the middle of the street holding up traffic while on your power trip and then attack the police officer who tells you to get on the sidewalk.

He'd be your mama.

:1orglaugh

Here, let me fix that for you:

I still win because my joke was first.

:1orglaugh

Show me the law where that gets the death penalty administered on the spot with no trial.

I find it hilarious the same people that defended Zimmerman now know for a fact this kid tried to reach inside a cop car and try to take a cops gun from him. The same people that yesterday claimed cops were nothing more than an arm for Obama's socialist agenda now today think this cops word is as good as gold.

These same cops beat a man in 2009 and then charged him for getting blood on their uniforms. Police apologists have got to be the sickest bunch.

Police in Ferguson, Missouri, once charged a man with destruction of property for bleeding on their uniforms while four of them allegedly beat him.

?On and/or about the 20th day of Sept. 20, 2009 at or near 222 S. Florissant within the corporate limits of Ferguson, Missouri, the above named defendant did then and there unlawfully commit the offense of ?property damage? to wit did transfer blood to the uniform,? reads the charge sheet.

The address is the headquarters of the Ferguson Police Department, where a 52-year-old welder named Henry Davis was taken in the predawn hours on that date. He had been arrested for an outstanding warrant that proved to actually be for another man of the same surname, but a different middle name and Social Security number.

If you attack a lone police officer, don't be surprised if you are putting him in a position to feel as though he must use lethal force to defend himself.

While there is no known footage of the Michael Brown incident, watch this other one....

Obviously a violent thug couldn't have possibly been going for a police officers gun, minutes after a robbery which he committed, resulting in him getting shot. Thats just crazy talk.

Did he get shot in the back too? That's a pretty amazing shot to make, when someone is reaching into your car.

What's your justification for the guy who got strangled to death for selling a cigarette?

How about the guy who filmed it being arrested? How about his wife being arrested?

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh whoa! politically UN correct

a republican smear campaign against the black man for sure... :2 cents:

OR Obama as a young man ...

Well, that settles that then. The media has never been wrong.

It's already known that there's an institutional racism in that police department (and probably a lot of others too). Did you see the story about the LT who told officers to arrest as many black people as possible -- right in front of black officers?

I'm not saying police in heavily black areas don't have a hard job, because some bad shit does go down at the hands of the black folks in those neighborhoods....but Police can't just go around shooting everyone because they're scared for their own lives.

They're supposed to protect and serve us. Their oath doesn't say to protect themselves upon feeling the least bit threatened. It pisses me off to see stories about a cop shooting a guy with a knife who is 15 feet away while there's other officers there to back him up, or shooting someone's dog during a bogus raid -- or cowering behind armored vehicles while a shooter rampages through a high school with automatic weapons (Columbine). Your job might involve serious bodily harm because your first priority is to serve us. We're your boss but you've forgotten that as you act like your lords and masters.

As far as Ferguson goes, hire a police force that's more reflective of the population.

Darwin's Law perhaps?

Not taking sides here, just saying.

And that sounds really great on paper - right up the point where you have a suspected of multiple felony crimes trying to steal away your firearm and potentially killing you.

Someone slained a running man. So sad it has to end that way.

Wouldn't need cops at all if we lived by that law.

they have a problem there

FYI The cop wasnt aware of the robbery.

What do you do when a whole subculture exists that accepts, promotes, glorifies, and then propagates acting like an animal.

I don't think the framers ever anticipated something like that.

It may be time to contemplate that, if you don't act civilized, you no longer deserve the benefits civilization imparts. When it's one person, ok, whatever. When it's a percentage of society that may threaten the whole? Maybe extraordinary measures are necessary.

For some reason it was funny as hell to me to hell the police call in about a lady involved in a panic attack.

:1orglaugh

Or the animals can just get rid of the likes of you, either is fine with me.

:2 cents:

What I'll never understand is why some of you get all bent out of shape when a piece of shit like this guy gets killed?

Hell, I figured the overpopulation crowd would be happy.

What happened between the police officer and the killing of that boy is terrible. I hope the cop gets what he deserves, like all criminals, I hope the justice system will punish him accordingly.

What I don't understand is when a tragedy like this happens, why does the entire black community rise up together and protest? Why when a black child gets killed it turns into a huge ordeal?

Black men shoot and kill more people than all other ethnicities combined in the US and when kids (white kids and black kids) are getting gunned down in the streets of Chicago weekly, where is the black community with their protests and street marching?

Why does the black community only jump on the band wagon when a black kid gets killed by a cop, but when 1000's of black men are killing people, the black community looks the other way?

It's a shameful double standard that is going on.

"We can kill anybody we want to, but if you shoot just one black child, we are going to rise above and riot in the streets."

I'm personally ashamed at how the black community responds to these types of situations.

I feel terrible for that young child who got shot, but I feel worse for the violence and ignorance it triggers in the black community.

This is the difference. If it happens to a piece of trash white kid, people don't riot because they are like, meh while he may not have deserved it he certainly wasn't doing himself any favours.

For some reason black society sees it differently.
