just like with trayvon. they believe a narrative and that's all they will accept. their self-delusion is that both were murdered without provocation in cold blood


Those people have an irrational core belief that all white cops are racists who will murder black people every chance they get so facts will never change their core belief.

If it is shown through ballistics and so forth that is is likely the cops side of the story reported yesterday is true, that he was rushed and shot in self defense, does it even matter?


Before last night's events, I would have said no. Today I will say I am leaning ever so slightly away from no.

The cop will be indicted - if not by the local or state authorities, then for federal civil rights violations. At least based on what little evidence we've been presented, I hope I'm wrong.


it would still have to get through a grand jury to do so. Its not like holder can waive a wand and come up with an indictment.

Narrative appears to have been set to me. Unarmed black teen shot by white cop. I don't think the people currently "demonstrating", rioting and looting care much about anything or are going to see things any differently no matter what the evidence shows.


The facts do not matter. This is being drilled as a racially charged incident by the media. That's what drew the response. That is what will keep this in the news for the forseable future.

Meaning, if everything points towards the cop not being indicted, expect more and bigger problems.


This is how some people want it.
