Since they all want justice what happens if it does come out brown attacked the officer and went after his gun? What justice would they want then?

Dont forget the feds are involved. They are never in a hurry to get anything done.

Says the guy


(civil point to make here) = 808 and I had a discussion about protest justification. I advocate waiting until investigation was complete. He was in full support of them starting protest immediately.

I think it varies with location, honestly. But yes, I would say more than 50% of the black community are good people who tend to do the right thing. Stereotypes often seem more prominent than they are.

I still don't think it's unreasonable to protest immediately with clear goals.

Did I say they should? Either way I am done with this argument that took place 100 pages ago.


Let all the details come out and then judge. I still haven't seen any evidence that would require a cop to manhandle a guy who took $40 worth of swishers.



I thought we were waiting till the evidence came out?

By not justifying their actions or lumping myself in with them simply because of vaguely similar melanin contents.

The sad thing is as much as I want that to happen, I don't think it will. You are seeing why right now on CNN. I don't live in a Ferguson type area I live in a Watt's type area and as much as I want things to change after 4 years of living here and working with inner city black kids I don't think it ever will. The best way to bring about change is investment in black kids to change their mentality. 70% of under 18 kids in memphis have no dad, and live in poverty. Thats going to take a lot of role models to step in and fill a huge void.

It was a strong arm robbery. Dont try to make it sound like less than what it was.

Whites are going to have to become a little more understanding and not expect change to happen with a week.


How many more years are we expected to wait?? How many more riots??

That is fricking retarded.

You protest when you have a reason to protest. They just wanted to be a mad mob.

When facts come out and there is a wrong and nothing is done, you protest.

You could have just said by not trying to hold them unaccountable.

For that to happen, the adults' mentality will have to change first.
