Do you think the cops were justified to kill him?

Those people are now in Baton Rouge and they will remain there until an investigation determines whether the cops were or weren't at fault. If the cops get off, the protesters will turn into violent rioters.


Lol. What is supposed to happen? The majority of br is made up of minorities. They going to riot against each other and destroy business owned by minorities? What they going to burn down br water, the DMV, the library, independence park?

And go ahead and try to frick with people's houses all up and down goodwood and in Tara. I'd bet quite a few of those people own guns.

Why would weekends be worse? The vast majority of these protesters most likely do not work.

You know I'm right, or at least in the back of your mind you know what I posted could easily become a reality in Baton Rouge.

Any scenario could become a reality it's just that it likely isn't going to happen the way you want it to. In the back of your little mind you know it won't either.

After watching the video numerous times, no one can say whether or not he was reaching for his gun or not. I don't think the cop should have shot him but I couldn't see what the cops saw. As mentioned, I've watched the videos numerous times and the cops experienced it only one time, in real time and made split second decisions unlike everyone else has been able to do.

Wish it would have never happened. No one disputes there are some bad apples in any organization. What our govt/president needs to stress is that individuals need to comply with the law enforcement, do as they say and quit acting so damn stubborn.
I think the Minnesota shooting is sickening from what I've seen and read.

I don't have all the facts. I am leaning toward no based solely on the video I saw, but my opinion is irrelevant. If they are guilty of an unjustified killing, then they should go to jail for murder. I'm certainly not going to champion for them.

No craziness last night. BRPD contained the mob with pure man power. It was very cool to see

More hateful shite stirrers coming in tonight so cops will have to maintain that we are in control and not putting up with that shite. We can reserve a special jail for the black panthers if they would like.

Have any of these protestors been introduced to Riverside Towing yet? Now would be a really good time to get these 2 outstanding factions together

Anybody that believes riots are coming have never been to BR. Its too spread out and segregated for that to happen. People will stay home to protect their neighborhoods, white and black. They can march around downtown all they want, nobody lives down there. But its the state capital, so the police and paramilitary presence down there would be substantial. I could see out of towners stirring trouble, but that was the case after Katrina and that got stopped quick. I just don't see anything too big happening..

4. Obama (or his administration) may instruct your governor to instruct local and state police to stand down to allow rioters space to vent their justified rage


The federal government exists to support the states. Obama is not in charge of what law enforcement in BR does. State's rights and whatnot.

If Obama wants to help he should quit trying to divide the races with his, and his minions, inflammatory comments and actions.
