There is so little happening that the local news shut down their live stream. You know shits boring when even on the scene reporters can't dramatize it

Sterling put officers in the exact same situation in 2009 and he was sent to prison for a number of years following that incident. The media rarely mentions it and it's pathetic. In that incident, someone reported that he pulled a gun on them, the officer arrived and questioned if he had a gun, he refused to answer the cop, the cop tried to pat him down and he started fighting him. While they were wrestling on the ground a gun fell out of Sterling's waistband. Another officer arrived to help and he kept fighting both of them, but the other officer got his gun and they eventually arrested him.

This guy was no gentle giant and he was fortunate to live as long as he did if you look at his violent and scary criminal history. He pressed his luck one too many times.

Civil rights issues are federal, that's why the DOJ is involved. If any murder charges are brought, it would the state (DAs office) to do it.

Correct. Federal government can't deprive you of your life without due process.

Why is twitter spreading he was unarmed? I can say with 100% certainty that that is not true and he in fact had a gun (and some loose bills) in his pocket.

The shipped in paid people need citizens to hide within.

If the locals show restraint, they lose cover and can't do what they want to do.

I hope this holds.

Rule #1 of the internet is don't listen to anyone on Twitter. Sterling having a gun isn't debatable

One of my best friends is a Louisiana State Police. He is getting sent to Baron Rouge tomorrow. I hope he gets a chance to protect and serve some rioters.

Because facts don't matter, and BLM is only concerned with their feelings.



Glad no charges will be brought.

Here's my thread from the other day: TD thread

He had a gun. You should SHAME anyone who says otherwise. Keep in mind, you are dealing with the most ignorant trash you will ever encounter

Yeah, I see now. I don't actually know a lot about the case, so I was looking at it from a murder charges perspective, not the civil rights violations charge.

Makes sense.

It was the official twitter moment blue checkmarked twitter though. Random trolls/idiots don't carry weight, but for it to be the official one is completely irresponsible and only causes more shite.

East Baton Rouge sheriffs department has been told the official word from the DOJ will be out at 6 o'clock in the morning. Odd time though.

If only that were the case.

They are a foreign funded group being led by the nose under the false pretenses that they are seeking justice when the persons funding them only want to cause civil unrest.
