That video from the convenience store did a lot to help prove that Brown wasn't the "gentle giant" that some were making him out to be. He was a grown arse man who didn't mind getting into physical altercations. Like you said,

Convenience store video shows that he used his size to intimidate people.

Exactly.
He was far from a "gentle giant".

It's incredibly naive, to be kind, to assume that race played NO part in anyone's mind. There are people who called michael Browns mother a "sheboon" on the OT. That is a racial epithet not based on anything but race. Criticize her for her behavior but to effectively call her a monkey is done to dehumanize her and therefore make her suffering "ok." I find Michael Browns behavior in the convenience store to be deplorable. That's not based on race; that's based on common sense, but if you believe that racists aren't using this young mans death to justify their already held beliefs, I have some prime lake ponchatrain water front property Id like you to consider buying.

100% agree. These are the same people that are rioting without giving a damn about the facts.

You're talking about a woman who put a fricking hit out on her own family for selling t-shirts.

I don't necessarily disagree but it's coming from both sides. Not just white people.

I don't think this came out like you thought it would. People pay a lot of money to live here.

Or the same people hurling racial epithets. Or the same people that believe that anytime a white officer kills a black it's justified. Facts be damned. Or the same people who act like these idiotic looters are representative of an entire race of people. 100% agree with you.

Lol! Great. Call me then because I couldn't stomach another Katrina!

Exactly how often does this happen?

Re the gentle giant,I seriously doubt that this was the first/only time this punk pulled something like this. Like La's former governor, he did not steal once & get caught that one time.I'd have dared him to walk down any street in N.O. and tell a NOPD officer to frick off, giant or otherwise.

I haven't a clue, but I sawjordan davis called a thug more times than I can count. That young man did NOTHING but listen to music and he was gunned down. The only reason those idiots called him those names is because of his race. Granted, his murderer was not a cop but the argument still stands. Some people automatically sympathized with his murderer because of his murderer's race.

The facts seem pretty clear here do they not? Race has nothing to do with the incident itself.
However, a large majority of protesters, a select few media outlets, and our President are trying their damnedest to make it about race. It's sickening.

That is absolute bullshite. I hope you don't really believe that. I'm sure there are racists who love it when black people get shot, but to suggest that this is a significant percentage of white people is paranoid and wrong.
And the "facts be damned" people are the rioters, not whitey. How about not fighting the police minutes after you rob a convenience store? How about look at the forensic report and see that it flies in the face of the "hands up" narrative? How bout listening to the multiple witnesses who corroborate Wilson's account? Yeah, facts be damned, huh?
You may go back into the shadows now, Lurkules.

So you picked one shooting from 2 years ago to make your point? Why don't you raise your fists when black people shoot random kids on Mother's Day? Or when a random black guy stabs a fricking Marine in the French Quarter?
Posted on 11/26/14 at 2:38 pm to MightyYat
I don't raise my fists because I don't protest anything. I haven't attended a single protest on this issue and actually agree with the decision, but you continue with your baseless assumptions.

Wat?
I just want to know why you think it's only racist when a white guy shoots a black guy?
Posted on 11/26/14 at 2:40 pm to MightyYat
Lol!! What in the hell are you talking about? His killer was JUST convicted.

On my phone, is there still rioting , looting, and stealing going on under the guise of injustice for someone the rioters didn't personally know?
Lol, it's not dark yet. ... But yes, they will probably be "protesting" again tonight in cities across the country for a stranger they don't give 2 fricks about. They have other reasons & motives, most definitely.
