And they called the police and gave his name, the police always try to run the name in their computer. There is so much we don't know and we don't really know who to trust when we read something...……...Other than the usual reliable ones...; The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Guardian, AP Wire. etc.etc.and etc. Not Mother Jones are The Epoch Times...…. |

What if the highlighted part above sounds to a lot of people as if the writer doesn't really think the law enforcement community is fair for the most part??? I really don't know what percentage of L.E.O. are black or white or Hispanic or Asian or Native American. Most of them look like decent folks to me. I don't know how many are gay or bi....but assuredly some are. What difference does race have to do with almost anything, unless we have pre-conceived ideas about people? People who go to church. People who pay their Taxes. People who don't. We all do have them...ideas about people. All of us. There are some that think old white conservative ladies all pee their pants and they all drive Corvettes and they all have nice husbands and they all watch MSNBC a lot to catch a glimpse of kin. Anyone who thinks we all are this or that or not emotionally intelligent. |
Yep..

I applaud your attempt at common sense, but I'm afraid it will have little-to-no effect with those that (even subtly) will continue to try and deflect...from it being purposeful murder. :ohdear: |

YEP....been pointed out on here many times......as much as our government leader(s) want to tag us very bad people if we do not walk lock step, thats not true. As many baseless personal attacks and baseless accusations are made, there are groups that simply "buy in" and will never speak up. Why is that ? Only answer I recall is "whatever simply being whatever" and things such as that. The labels you speak of are applied to skin color, ethnicity, and registration, with no thought that they are individual human beings....Americans who actually fought for their country. Oh and it was nice of you to say that certain designated folks "Most of them look like decent folks to me. " That was really very magnanimous of you, but you know, if I said that about a group or a person, I will be attacked....strange world we are building. Lets all look inward for once |

As you know, you and I agreed for many years. I am very well aware of my feelings and we split on feelings when I just flat out refused to betray my feelings to a preposterous situation. I stand in fear for a place I fought for, defended, and worked for. I stand in fear of a lot right now. Because of that, I admit I have become full of one emotion when faced with a daily onset of lies, and hate. I do not think I stand alone and I apologize to nobody for not giving up my moral standards and belief in the power of truth and empathy. Some have simply rolled over and I have not. If that makes me the bad guy, so be it. |
He was unarmed, already hand cuffed, and there were 4 officers... This was beyond necessary. If he was being violent (with his hands cuffed behind his back), his other 3 officers would have been involved in helping. They were just standing there! Either way, he's dead now, at the hands of this officer...on tape.

As to his character or previous record, I don't care if he just committed armed robbery. Once the police did their job of apprehending and subduing him, they have no right to continue on to be judge, jury and executioner. |

Steve I had to delete because the Mods deleted some posts that I responded to, but failed to delete this one for some strange reason. I didn't want to think I was directing my comment to anyone else. Steve again |
