sigh.  Putin must be LOLing his ass off right now.

[HaloCory22]

Putin wouldn't let this happen if he were President.

[Hollyw00d]

LOL looting an O'Reilly now. Yo man I need some spark plugs!

Probably trying to get some spinners

[gotbeer]

Which reminds me.  Time to reinstall the police scanner.  Wonder if you could get Fergusons channel?

I feel for any person of any color who respects the rights of others and wants to create a good life for himself and his family and is mistreated for any reason by police.

My black buddies get pulled over all the time.

But in this case the cop was clearly not committing a crime.

If there were going to be bureaucratic shenanigans they would sacrifice this one guy - indict and convict him.

Missouri state highway patrol police scanner is interesting.  Someone setting fire somewhere, might be armed.

Oh cool.  People trying to break into Ferguson City Hall.

[Tank]

public storage facility on fire. destroying the property of the locals is very aggravating.

We know they won't break into and loot the Ferguson library.

If there are people out there that don't believe that being black in America doesn't get a target on your back from police than I will argue those people are blind.

 

That being said, the rioting tonight does not help their cause, at all.

So 1000 is acceptable? Looks like I was right that it happens everyday.

When does it become too many? 5000? 100,000?

Stop "keeping me safe"

Youre right...cops shouldnt be able to shoot people.

The people out there doing bad guy stuff will probably chill the f*ck out if cops would just relax. The same year as the stats i quoted saw 14K homicides in the US...its definetely the pigs who are behind the violence.

Good heads up on the tear gas thing though. If you excuse me im gonna start my lawsuit against the Marine Corps for all those times they made me go through the gas chamber. The damn criminals. Im a citizen too!

People in the crowd flashing gang signs

Sorry, this is a horrible argument.  Good cops should be disgusted by bad shootings and want them to go away forever.  To minimize them and make it sound like it doesn't happen almost ever is just silly.

Listening to Missouri State Police on 5-0 app. They are telling their officers to retreat from Toys R Us since it is not safe

[ten ocho recon scout]

The cops should be allowed to gas and taze the shit out of all these people.

Did i say anything remotely close that dealt with bad shootings?

To assume whenever a cop shoots someone its a bad shooting is the issue.

[NrM]

is there a reason why I should be following this crap at all?

Everyone seems to be obsessed about it.

 

I think I'll just keep focusing on the SJWs.

Racist.

[RallyMo]

The POlice keep axing them to stay on the sidewalks

 

The last thing that should be coming from New Jersey is a criticism of anybody else's pronunciation tendencies.

This is probably the best post in the thread so far.

 

Racism definitely exists. Bad, racist cops definitely exist. But this wasn't one of those situations.

[NrM]

I dig the white shame on here.

Reminds me of my days at UC Santa Cruz.

I could tell it was bullshit then, too.

Almost finished with my sociology class. 

It's literally all confirmation bias bullshit claiming the white man is evil and oppressing everyone.
