I just don't understand it. Initial news coming out of the initial situation looks like the cop screwed up....bad.
I am not sure how anyone can in turn think looting and shooting back at police is the correct thing to do. I just can't wrap my head around that line of thinking. It really does boggle my mind.
Quote:Have they hurt anyone in a brutal manner? I haven't read about any horrific injuries or death as a result of their lawlessness. Just a lot of property damage, and a lot of stolen goods.
Savages would be thugs in your area of the country who walk down the street in groups and assault someone causing them great physical injury all for kicks.
These idiots are nothing more than opportunists who are using the shooting of a kid by a white cop as an excuse to cause mayhem and to steal stuff and trash things.
Is the cop who shot the UNARMED kid while he was running away a savage?
The LA riots come to mind. This wasn't far off from that, and I would love to hear how the mindset of those people was one bit different.

This is noting more than provacators working a mob. The response is soft martial law in the "war zones" as the police are calling it.
Police aggression killed a young man no surprise they've been pumping cops that America is a war zone for decades now. So when something boils over and people protest provacators come in and agitate a bad situation who wins? Government more laws are passed to "protect the public" events like this justify police having military equipment and further pushes us towards a military police force.
These people are just simply sheep being led to the slaughter with agitators making the situation worse.
Don't forgot police where caught red handed in Pittsburg dressing and acting as anarchist during the g20 summit. It's not out of the realm if possibility cops agitating the crowd to incite riots and shift focus from the shooting of an unarmed boy to controlling a "savage" mob

Blaming the cops for looting and all the other crimes that come from a mob is a real stretch. To insinuate that the cops had anything to do with it is just not reality. Those people in those mobs knew exactly what they were doing, and it had exactly nothing to do with protesting anything.

Before theres even an inquiry...this! Shots fired at police? At a police helicopter?
I dunno, maybe its just me to find the irony of saving the world, helping people ( as in the current Iraq situation) and we have this crap right at home.
With social media these days, we know longer set any example for anyone.
Sad.Pathetic.
Maybe it just is me. Can anyone see the remotest justification in this? Im sure there are issues, like with the po po, but this action doesnt get you the sympathy or attention you want.
Rev Al is leading a march on this?
Its an excuse for free stuff. I get that. Guess theres just no shame or pride.
"Merica. 
Well, in defense of Rev. Al, he is calling for non-violence.
No, of course there is no justification for this looting and shooting at the police. And please, if you listen to Rush Limbaugh, don't let him persuade you that liberals are to blame or that liberals approve of this. Don't fall for that.
Quote:Well, in defense of Rev. Al, he is calling for non-violence.
Yeah, but the problem is that everywhere he goes and calls for non-violence, the exact opposite happens. Ever wonder why that is?

Everywhere?
Quote:Everywhere?
Lately, yes.
Quote:Lately, yes.
Where else "lately"?
Quote:Lately, yes.
Tawana Brawley says, N'uh uh!
That was almost 30 years ago. You guys must have a different definition of "lately".

I'm not saying the police are responsible in this case I'm just pointing out in the past this had happened.

I don't know who "you guys" refers to.

Race hucksters like Al Sharpton preach non-violence, but they get people so amped up with their rhetoric that it's almost inevitable that the eventual outcome is more of what we're seeing today. He doesn't really care about the situation, or the victims. All he cares about is getting out in front of cameras. He and Jessie Jackson are two peas from the same pod in that regard. They've made a good living out of racing in and stirring up discontent, then blackmailing the target into doing something. I'm shocked Jessie Jackson hasn't already hit the ground in MO to see what his Rainbow Coalition can extort from the police in Ferguson.

You must be one of "you guys" too.....
Some refuse to believe a concept so simple. Race hustling is alive and well, and the 2 you mentioned have made careers and much wealth from it.
Recent letter sent to Times Union...read it online...
Dear Rev.Sharpton,
I see where you travelled to St.Louis to show support and address the recent
shooting of a young man by police. Recently in Jacksonville Fl a six year
old girl was shot. Being a man of the cloth I'm sure you agree that the
harming of a child is one of the more heinous acts. That being said, I hope
you can make the trip here to address this issue. There won't be a huge
media event and your presence won't be as widespread as it is at the riots
in St.Louis, but again,it's a child, shot. I'm sure we can count on your
influence here and that the media attention is secondary.
Looking forward to your arrival and reaching out to a community that needs
guidance

Sharpton is what you call an agitator sent in to stir the crowd and justify a militarized police force.
Follow the money. Sharpton doesn't give a damn about the FBI or anything of the sort. He does what he does because he makes millions doing it.
*kanye shrug* it is what it is
