To let them know they are really serious about not wanting the police to shoot people.
And that requires rioting?

This whole ordeal is so stupid..
Honestly, if I was black, I would be embarrassed.. Why does race have to come into play for EVERYTHING whenever an African American is wronged? Do they honestly think that this cop shot this boy just because he's black?? The fact that a cop shot a civilian and killed him is the only thing that should matter
This country can be so stupid sometimes

Close up maybe, but when I was discussing what was happening with my son last night I told him they were more like frozen paintballs and they have the very rare potential to kill.
Not knowing myself exactly what they're like, I told my son they were like shooting lacross balls at someone.

Not sure what it will take to stop the rioting. There are anarchist out there that see this as a chance to fight big govt and the police are stuck between a rock and a hard place. They show up undermanned and unprepared and chaos ensues. they show up with force ready for the worst and they are tyrants and feed into the anarchist agenda

Do you think the fact that Michael was black impacted their interaction any way from the officer's perspective?

Umm, no?
How was the guy acting? Was he being disrespectful, rude, or gave the impression that he could pose a threat?
I seriously don't know and I'm just saying that IF he was treated different maybe it was because of how he acted, and not because he was black.. But the majority of that community will never admit that and just hide behind the (huge) race card

If that same exact cop were working for Manchester or Ballwin or Chesterfield PD and saw my kid walking down the street with a friend, he would have NEVER told them to get the frick out of the street. That I can guarantee.

That is certainly a possibility. And having interacted with and observed local STL area police I will say that there is a portion of them who treat different races differently. We'll see what the evidence says.

They must be making a killing in OT this week
Posted on 8/14/14 at 4:20 pm to FelicianaTigerfan
And if you're as cranky as you sound on here, I'd hope my kid would obey you and then yell an insult at you as you drove off so you could drive your blood pressure up another 10 points.

I'm surprised they're out there after the gov said they weren't gonna be out there anymore, but the state police would.
