St. Louis Riots After Cop Kills Unarmed Teen

[niknik]

I knew there was more to the story. Of course his friend who was with him lied. What a surprise. Where's the real reporters and journalist? The ones who would dig into that friends past and see how truthful and trustworthy his words are. I can't believe so many just took his word for it. He's a criminal. And his account has caused riots. And his account is most likely a lie.

By the way, I believe Al Sharpton is the BIGGEST Racist in America!!! He needs to be stopped!!! All he does is spread HATE and pits blacks against whites!!!

This kid did not deserve to die, but come on, he is/was nothing but a common thug. Watch the video, piece of shit loser who felt he deserved those cigars, so he took them. NOT the angel his parents are making him out to be.

The Chief of Police also has said the cop had no idea Brown was a suspect until after he shot and killed him...

Black people shoot and kill each other daily around where I live, but no one seems to ever riot about that

First off, I'm not supporting rioters or looters, I merely stated that civil protests aren't exactly known to effect rapid change and like it or not , anger is part if human nature and many simply don't give shit and are taking advantage of the opportunity to grab free stuff I'm not defending it or saying these people deserve a pass, just stating a belief, making a rather obvious observation.

As for being 2000 miles away, I lived and worked in LA during the Rodney King riots and saw many business affected by the looting, fires and other criminal acts including assaults and murder. I certainly didn't support those actions and I'm hardly supporting these. Oh course I'd be pissed if I was directly affected, where did I say those affected by these acts shouldn't be pissed? What I said was these police killings need to stop, we're only going to get more rioting of this kind if they continue. Do you really think most people, irrespective of color believe the authorities will conduct an open and honest investigation? Please...remember Kelly Thomas? How'd that turn out? Yeah, trust in the authorities is at an all time high, ain't it? I'll bet you trust all the cops, right?

Now, if you're interested in some open dialog about this, great, let's have at it...or do you simply prefer being a reactionary asshole who jumps to conclusions?

Ok, i won't read past that first paragraph then...
