Why should I address this. You're asking me to answer for every crime every black person does. I never see white people having to answer for ever crime a white person does. What happened to this guy is sad. I had three friends who I grew up with murdered. Only one killer was arrested. Do I have to answer for those crimes too because I am black and the killers were most likely black?

I'm stating my opinion on this case because it's a high profile case. I stated my opinion on the Aurora shooting case, the Sandy Hook case, the Christopher Dorner case, the Travon Case, etc...I'm just a dude behind a keyboard. i'm not protesting for anyone. If you want to know why the people in Ferguson are outraged about this and not anything else, go ask them.

Because a damned good man was killed in the hood in your home town.

No. We as a diverse multicultural community need upstanding black folks to make a commitment to stopping the black on black crime that destroys more lives than any police department can.

THAT IS WHATS WRONG WITH THIS COUNTRY RIGHT THERE. NOT POLICE SHOOTING BLACK DUDES DURING A STRUGGLE.

This is nothing new. The music at the end of Boyz N The Hood was somber theme titled "Black On Black Crime"

eta: ted nugent is a racist jackass just like Sharpton. And FYI I have said this before but if I could pick a time in American History to go back and be a part of, It would have been walking along side blacks during Civil Rights Movement b/c white people historically have sucked arse in this country. True story. I'm the minority here on the OT, I know.
