You know, it sounds like excessive force may have been used in this case. We won't really know until all the facts are in. In the meantime, there is nothing wrong with people following these simple, time proven tips to avoid the use of excessive force by police all together and living to fight another day as presented by Chris Rock.
Racist!
ReplyDeleteEd, The biggest !
DeleteHave seen this video many times.
ReplyDeleteIt should be required viewing in all inner city schools at the beginning and end of each school day.
And during lunch and study hall.
And on mobile dvd players on the buses.
Sig, and every hour on ESPN
Deleteguess my comment did not take--
ReplyDeleteLove the video-it brought a much needed LOL--
C-CS
Carol-CS, Thanks. What the doctor ordered. :)
DeleteI vaguely remember seeing this before but cracked up thru the entire thing! Thanks for posting.
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed it, Dang, I've watched it 12 times now.
DeleteAnybody in Ferguson listening to this guy?
ReplyDeleteAOW. No.
DeleteI think separating "the community" into rioters and protesters would be helpful.
DeleteNot everyone out there (obviously not even a majority) are rioting dickheads. There's been no shortage of people out there cleaning up, trying to stem the tide of violence, etc. Similarly, a lot of cops out there are just doing their jobs (as they see it), but when the only tool you give someone is a hammer, everything starts to look like a nail, as the saying goes.
But that wouldn't play into our preconceived notions.
Duck, that's all pretty obvious. Nothing is ever all encompassing. I'll tell you what though. I really think some of the Good Folks from the community should have gone over to the convenience store, regardless if that was Mr Brown there stealing or not, and said, Mr Proprietor, we are a community and we are saddened you had to endure this assault and theft and we want you to know we are not all thugs so we made a collection and we hope this contribution somehow relieves some of what you had to endure.
DeleteI think we're to the point that this has to be done. Black folks are getting a bad name more than ever because no one is countering what the thugs are up to. It may end up like the American Indian situation where in that case as well, the violent among them were the minority. Not a threat by any means, just an observer of history.
You'll have to provide some specific examples of people, "trying to stem the tide of violence" I don't see it.
Things are serious out there and going in the wrong direction. And a democrat majority in power too. What a surprise.
I suppose “community” has a different meaning among people. To me, it means that place where I live, work, attend church, shop, and send my kids to school. If I am going to be a member of this community, as opposed to only living here, then I have to participate as part of that community. I should know something about the people I elect to office; I should attend meetings at city hall; I should know who it is that represents me on the town council. If I see a police department that is out of control, I can deal with that politically. Now it may be true that the folks of Ferguson have community spirit, but I see little evidence of that.
ReplyDeleteOn the other hand, if there is anyone living in Ferguson who does not know that Michael Brown was an asshole, you could likely count those people on the fingers of one hand. Personally, I am sorry the police capped Michael; the storeowner should have done it. Nevertheless, with that said, once the police shot Michael, driving over to cap his mother was a logical next step. In fact, if everything was percolating along as they should, Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton would be afraid to step foot in any American community ...
Mustang, along with every democrat politician and voter.
DeleteIf I see a police department that is out of control, I can deal with that politically.
Delete---
Yeah, like any minority in NYC, Los Angeles, St. Louis, New Orleans ... please, bore us later. All you'd be doing is making sure barney Fife has military grade armored vehicles to protect us from the scary Muslims and brown people.
So Michael Brown was a punk, looks that way.
So he deserves to be shot down, right? Of course you probably accept completely the "he was grabbing my weapon though the door" crap from the cop.
Then we get the Jackson, Sharpton meme so beloved by you and the rest of the John Birch crew. Jackson has been virtually invisible and statements I've read are positive about Sharpton's role. He has tried to contain the violence despite the fact that the Cincinnati Kid doesn't believe these people exist.
Duck, you're certifiable. Too bad you don't recognize when you make an ass of yourself. It might help.
DeleteIt was your hero obama that amped up the military hardware across the country. You won't fnd any decent conservative that think it is a good ideal for local police to look like the military. And show me some libtards taking issue with it becuase I don't see any.
I never said Brown deserved to be shot down. Especially since we don't know the facts of teh case. If it was a bad shooting the cop should feel the full extent of the law Of Course.... (Like talking to a freakin 3 year old duck and the rest of your libtard friends).
I don't buy anything at this point. I'M waiting for the investigation to conclude instead of paying attention to people with agendas. The rest of your rant is unintelligible. jackson/sharpton? Who listens to those assholes?
One more Time. (1) I'm waiting for the FBI report.
(2) I think it would be a nice gesture if the "Good Black Folks" of the community did something good for the owner of that convenience store. Instead they vandalize it and loot it some more. Classy.
(3) I think it would be great if the brothers confined their protests to acting after the facts actually come out and further, don't look at every suspected event that may have been unjust against a black person as a op for a new TV at the detriment to the business owners in their "community".
Civilized people are getting tired of this act and the result will probably be Less Justice for the brothers in the end.
This doesn't look good for the police at this point, but like too many items in the recent past like the lying whore accusing the Duke Lacross boys of rape, and jackson playing judge and jury for them (where is the apology Al?) the smart play is to be skeptical of such incidents.
One final point. The violent out of control black folks are more than likely the product of LBJ's great society that pays single mothers to pop kids out like pieces of toast into zero opportunity gangbanger environments. You want to see this stuff improve, write your congressmen and senators and tell them to stop paying women to pop out democrat voters.
The sane view. Dig?
PS, Show me something happening to a black person in modern times and try to tell me the same thing hasn't happened to a white person.
DeleteBlack folks want a perfect existence? They won't get it. None of us do. Suck it up and make something of your life folks. It starts with getting an education (democrats have made that about impossible in inner city public schools) and a job (Gee, under obama, black folks are less employed than ever) Wake the hell up !
Apparently, the duck is unaware that it is he and his variety of libtard that created these losers in the first place. I will not refer to the black citizens of Ferguson as a minority, particularly when Negroes comprise 66% of the community. This situation demonstrates that misery breeds more of the same; the more miserable people there are, the more they will demand that others share that misery with them. After all, who wants to see some other bastard getting ahead in life? I do have to salute the libtards for one thing, though ... they know how to execute a well-devised plan.
DeleteYeah, the libtards "created these losers in the first place".
DeleteWhy don't you and The Cincinnati Kid continue rationalizing your kneejerk crap.
"Jackson and Sharpton", you go there Mr. john Birch and you tip your hand that you're just a bigot.
Let’s make a deal, Ducky ... I won’t mislabel you as an American, and you don’t mislabel me as a Bircher. Beyond that, you and jerk offs just like you are exactly what has created this mess.
DeleteDuck, becuase I'm in a generous mood, I'll ask you to propose Who Actually Did create this situation of breeding democrat voting gang bangers to single females if it wasn't lbj's great [POS} society. Be sure to include factual data to support your claim. Good luck, because llbj payig poor people to breed is about all the proof anyone needs if they have 2 brain cells to rub together.
DeleteNo dang it I hope you've learned something here. But I know you haven't.
Mustang, Yes, we have probably at least 3 generations of females who were spawned by single females breeding for money to multiple males, who create multiple female children who themselves create multiple female children. It's just like a virus. Democrats, Still Enslaving Black folks and now poor folks too.
DeleteKid,
ReplyDeleteHave you seen the recent information from Michael Brown's autopsy report?
Eric Holder has ordered yet another autopsy. I think that will make three autopsies.
I wonder what the toxicology report will show.
This comment has been removed by the author.
DeleteThe autopsy is out and supports the witnesses account.
DeleteNot definitive yet but the police have some explaining to do.
Typical misinformation.
DeleteThe WaPo has an article that states many things, including the following:
Delete...While this autopsy confirms some information that witnesses have given, it also appears to contradict other details. Baden told the Times that it appeared that all of the bullets hit the front part of Brown’s body, while Dorian Johnson — an eyewitness to the shooting — said through an attorney that Brown was shot in the back....
Much more at the above link.
Another article is stating that Brown had pot in his system. Final toxicology results are not yet available as far as I know.
Personally, I find it hard to believe that Brown was struck that many times in his right arm if his right arm had been raised. If the officer was trying for a body shot and Brown arms would down, that would explain why Brown was struck so many times in his right arm (held close to his body).
DeleteBrown family attorneys have this interpretation. Of course.
DeleteAOW, No, honestly, I'm not paying a lot of attention until the final report comes out. 3 autopsies already? Geeez, I'm getting skeptical on an honest report.
DeleteMoving the looting to Dellwood? The looting! So states the Tweet. Sheesh.
ReplyDeleteDellwood = 79.2% black
The convenience store in Dellwood has already been looted twice.
These are feeeding frenzy opportunities for a certain percentage form sharpton and friends and on down to the toilet paper stealers.
DeleteI wonder if the black panthers have put out a wanted poster and reward yet?
DeleteAOW, Maybe the cops should just move out after giving a few months notice. There ya go. have at it.
DeleteAnd this cop Might be quillty of some nastiness, who knows. I read where a case is being made for cops to wear GoPro cameras. Why not. Dash cams are almost universal. Why not wear a camera, And have the feed go back over the net when a gun is pulled. We'd hear screams of doctored videos but some of this would go away for righteous incidents.
These young kids and older idiot’s wouldn’t be doing what they do if their daddy wasn't out on the streets peddling dope the women he was shacking up with wasn’t running around with every- rapper and basketball player in sight. Then maybe, just maybe his kid would not be getting in all this trouble with the Cops.
ReplyDeleteAlso if they had someone better that Al “Sharpy” Sharpton to speak out for them instead of inciting Riots! These people aren’t PROTESTERS, maybe a few of them are, but most are there to take advantage of a mob situation so that they could steal, break-in to stores and loot, vandalize, and burn down their own cities, with a few exceptions among them, none of them are there to actually PROTEST! They’d rather be out on the streets raping, attacking people and murdering innocents, no matter who they might be, children included.
Of course...they are out there to get some of their Free Stuff! That’s a cool thing!
And yes, the fact SOME of them are represented by corrupt public employee unions doesn't help, either. But throw Al Sharpton into the mix and this is what you get! But the Libs, and Progressives, and all the other Bleeding Hearts are right there to always question the police’s tactics, and never will put the blame on the place where it really belongs... the blacks who are there to cause chaos and trouble, and to loot, loot, and loot. And shout "Racism." when it happens.
And Obama’s speech, don’t help either. To tell these radical people to “Stop” the Chaos and then return to his Golf game on Martha’s Vineyard is pure “Bull-Shit” no one is going to care about whatever he says. To say “C’mon you brothas you got to stop” Is pure Bull! Obama has no credibility. None.
If you REALLY want them to stop you have to do what John Lewis is saying. CALL FOR MARTIAL LAW! Don’t call for a “Beer Conference like Obama!
Thas what um sayin, you know what um sayin.
DeleteKid: Don't let on to the Al Sharpton people that there is a video out there that might cut into his race baiting business.
ReplyDeletePS: markets are not tanking, per your prediction, Kid. The Dow is only about 300 points or so off it's record high of 17,138. What you need to make your prediction come true is a big, juicy hit to America or its economy. You know, another 9/11 type hit. Or the Russians and/or Chinese pulling out the stops and letting their cyber criminals loose on our ATM and internet/mobile banking technology and stop our economy cold.
Something like that. Otherwise, it looks like the Kid missed the call on this one.
Fredd, Two more weeks my friend.
DeleteI'll give you another month, Kid. You deserve the slack. Here's where we stand. Fredd: no correction in equity markets by Sep 18. Kid sez: 10% correction. Or 12%. I am hoping I am right, and I think you hope so, too Kid.
DeleteFredd, I appreciate the latitude. ;-)
DeleteThat's okay, Fredd. You can still take his course at Online Trading Academy.
DeleteRacism is a tremendously profitable enterprise. The slavery story is no longer an excuse to disobey an order from a LEO. PERIOD.
ReplyDeletep47koji, Welcome. Racism is very profitable. I agree of course. How long will it take do you think, before black people regard slavery as an ancient event to be forgotten. I think it's going to take forever.
