You obviously have no concept of the nuanced meaning of language.

Robbery=\=shoplifting=\=burglary

Yes and no. If he is lying on the ground with his hands up, can you put 4 more in him?

Exactly I'm saying shopping lifting doesn't justify the shooting


I'm not going to use a legal word of what happened at the store because that's meaningless. But the physical confrontation in and of itself does not justify the shooting. You would be correct. BUT...it does have to be taken into consideration when looking at the shooting and will have an impact/effect on how that shooting is viewed.

Be nice if the protesters would band together and repair the damage to that store that was destroyed.

This dude should sue the Chief of Police for not making it explicitly clear at his conference that there are two Darren Wilson within St Louis and he was not the one.


No no no. Ask Geaux. The police don't owe anyone any information. None.

Was the store that was burned down the one that was robbed?

Now you're mad and revert to personal attacks, classic and typical.

You can shoplift and be charged with robbery. Yes? Yes.


NO, No you can't

If you are shoplifting and then are caught that is shoplifting.

If you are shoplifting and the owner catches you and then you use violence or the threat of violence to flee with the goods then that is robbery.

If you drop the goods and run you could only be charged with attempted simple theft.

Remember this is a big 6'4 black guy the size of an offensive lineman. Yeah I'm pretty sure that punch would hurt. This is not a lil skrimpy trayvon martin. This guy is huge.


Cant stress this part enough. There is case law out there where officers have shot suspects that had a size advantage on them and ultimately started losing the upper hand when trying to make an arrest. It also explains why the officer got out of the patrol car with gun drawn.

Well, I started with simple dictionary definitions. I can't help it they can't read.


It must be nice to be able to pick and choose which definition fits your argument.

A quick google search gives me this from dictionary.reference.com:

Robbery
quote:

Law. the felonious taking of the property of another from his or her person or in his or her immediate presence, against his or her will, by violence or intimidation.


Shoplifting
quote:

to steal (merchandise) as a shoplifter.


Same thing, huh?

WTF? Of course not. Maybe I'm unclear what physical confrontation he's talking about because I took that to mean the confrontation between MB and the cop.
