Some people like to have things under control even if the source of the control is out of theirs. Why do you think so many people are religious?

These Ferguson cops have some major problems and they need new leadership. Nobody can deny that. I can't speak for the cop that killed this kid but I do know with absolute certainty that his story will differ from eyewitness stories, and that each eyewitness' story will differ. I do not shed a tear when criminals are killed while being criminals. This kid did something to provoke deadly force. I don't know what but he's not Mr. Innocent. It's not like the cop harassed him, he put up his hands and said "don't shoot!" and the cop gunned him down anyway. Although that's what a lot of people would like you to believe. Where's the outrage when these thugs kill each other each and every day? Where's the outrage when innocent children and bystanders are shot and killed during gang drivebys? Where was the outrage when thugs were looting New Orleans during Katrina and even firing at rescue helicopters? Nobody cares, but a cop shoots a criminal who most likely went for his gun (guaranteed that's the cop's story. Guaranteed) and all hell breaks looks.

The problem with arguments like threse is it takes low level street crime, makes it the main problem in society while white collar crime is looting the fuck out of the public treasury with for example bogus wars that profits corporations, transforms countries like iraq into wastelands, thats the real crime. Your public funds are getting looted each year giving money to Israel so it can make its citizens lives in danger with reckless killing of palestinian civilians, taking over their lands. It also doesnt take any historical context in consideration regarding crime and poverty often because of racist unwillingness to look at those things. White crooks laughing all the way to the bank.

I didn't know this until last night, but I know the sister-in-law of that cop. According to her (yes it's only one side of the story) the kid bull rushed the cop, knocking him backwards into the police car, and would not get up/off the cop. Supposedly the kid was going for the gun...and they struggled. A shot was fired during that struggle (I wasn't told by who but assumed the police)
Backup arrived, helped to pull the kid off the cop and he still wouldn't stop. He kept going after them. They couldn't control him & they couldn't stop him. They fired a shot to stop him, and he came again. They shot him again, and he still kept coming. The kid never put his hands up. He never said "don't shoot". He didn't say a word, he just kept going after the cop. At some point, he took a bullet to the head. | ||

As far as my guildtag is concerned, it has nothing to do with this story or anything else in the news. That's the quite the stretch you've got going there... | |||

IOW...
You don't know the sister-in-law. She told you nothing. Whatever she had to say about it would be irrelevant anyway.
