The black people screaming "Black Lives Matter" are the same ones that'll shoot up another African American over a dime bag or gang dispute.

I had more black friends than white friends growing up, FWIW. My family supported some of them with athletic equipment when we played sports together, gave them rides to and from practice, and paid for them to play sports. Football helmets? Cleats? Shoulder pads? Jerseys? Pants? Socks? Food? A place to stay? My family provided all of that and I was raised to treat blacks just like brothers.

But this shite is awful.

People keep saying this but what am I missing in that video from inside the store? You cannot see his arm before the shots are fired.

Hell, thing are so indiscernible in those videos that people were arguing he was on his stomach instead of his back.

It's what people do on Twitter. I'm convinced very few, if any, of those people believe it was murder, but they're not going to get in the way of a good movement.

2nd video honestly looks like an accidental discharge started the gunshots. Guy on lower body seemed to slip/fall over.

To appease race baiters before they let these guys off to a justified shootings.

Just a show to hopefully keep them from losing their shite.

I honestly wouldn't count on that. The ones who wouldn't care as much are still more likely.

Seems like you've done this since yesterday giving pretty definitive statements on non definitive evidence

And news flash, nothing in this thread matters. So take your own advice and let it go

Expert on Nancy Grace now is defending the cops. Says there was a malfunction with the taser and victim kept resisting and they didn't have control of him on ground.

It most certainly happens to white. And hispanics.

There just aren't race baiters in those populations chomping at the bit nor does the media give two shits.

The problem is the third party videos are not 100% conclusive. That means BLM gets their narrative. They'd have a good shot at getting their narrative even if the video was conclusive so they for damn sure are gonna win the day on an ambiguous video.

It is odd to me that so many don't know what is going on in these situations: Leftist organizations wait until there is a pot that is near boil and they send in professional agitators to get everything kicked up.

Meh, I hate Hillary as much as the next guy but the only news today would have been the DOJ backing the FBI's suggestion that no charges should be filed.

Watch his shoulder, it is moving a lot to be under control. Watch the second cop, he is struggling a lot if it's under control. You cannot see the hand in either video. For all we know he is just trying to get his arm free to push off the cop or get it from between a rock and the cop because of discomfort. If the cop sees a gun which the he's gotta gun means he probably does, and if his hand closest to the gun is not under control, which he's reaching for the gun, means that cop felt like, then I cannot argue the cop did not fear for his life. The reaction of the cop tells me pulling the trigger was the last thing he ever wanted to do, conviction or not his life is over and he and his family will be threatened and be forced to move.
