@TheCelt: You have no idea all the emotions involved we as Americans have as far as the nightmare in Ferguson..
Imo, your post is ANOTHER attempt of trying to tell Americans how we show ban guns & fear our police. I think you should of made a separate thread.

We not only have a gun problem in this country, we also have a problem with mentally unstable people.

We not only have a gun problem in this
country,
If this true, we have an automobile problem also. There are 32,000 firearms fatalities and 33,000 automobile fatalities on average each year here.
There are 254,000,000 vehicles on our roads and an estimated 270,000,000-310,000,000 firearms in this country. So, actually, vehicle fatalities are a little worse.


"" The estimated total number of guns (both licit
and illicit) held by civilians in the United
States is 270,000,000 1 to 310,000,000 ""
Per gunpolicy.org.


"" This graph shows the number of vehicles
registered in the United States from 1990

i said nothing about banning guns so im not sure how you construed that from my previous post , and forgive me if im mistake but arent the riots in Ferguson over the sense of injustice the black community feels over the shooting death of an unarmed black man by the cops ? and isent my previous post about the senseless shooting death of another unarmed black child again by the cops ? so given the `emotions` involved in the black community regarding trigger happy cops shooting black people i fail to see how my previous post isent relevant to this thread

black man
Not quite....the riots are more to do with the agenda of the professional race baiters and people with a perpetual "Im a victim" mentality....than they do with some thug who had just committed two felonies, which were backed up by video, eye witness accts, and forensic evidence....then got his ass shot, Good riddance, and I dont give a sh!t what color he was. Play stupid ass games, win stupid ass prizes


previous post about the senseless shooting
death of another unarmed black child again
by the cops ?
Another child? Mike Brown wasnt a child, he was a 6'6" 290lb man who tried to take a cops weapon....a felony, his 2nd of the day.....where, by Missouri law, a cop is within his rights to use deadly force.
Now if by "child", you mean the 12y/o who was killed...yes, that is the only tragedy here. But he wasnt "unarmed". All accts I have read is that he was brandishing a very realistic looking airsoft pistol at people. Maybe if dispatch wldve mentioned to the responding officers that it was a toy, maybe it wldve turned out different. But instead of rushing to judgement, Ill wait for the investigation to be completed and all the facts revealed, before I make up my mind.

so given the `emotions`
involved in the black community regarding
trigger happy cops shooting black people
If only these 'emotions' cld arise whenever they kill themselves.....There is a saying being used in regards to Ferguson...."Black Lives Matter"....I guess that only applies to the handful of cop shootings......and not the thousands of blacks shooting other blacks situations.

i
fail to see how my previous post isent
relevant to this thread
Fwiw, I got its relevancy.


This guy gets it.....and hes black btw.

thats your opinion , but maybe just maybe black people arent as dumb a your making them out to be and can actually think for themselves , and actually do have genuine real concerns about police violence perpetuated towards them by over zealous cops

than they do with some thug who had just committed two felonies, which were backed up by video, eye witness accts, and forensic evidence
im not saying the guy was a saint , but the first felony of stealing a box of cigars is hardly the crime of the century , and certainly doesnt warrant summary execution , as for the second felony , there was also eye witness accounts saying that he didnt try to take the cops gun , a cop will also use that as an excuse for shooting an unarmed man , just like they always use the old he was resisting arrest excuse in police brutality cases ,

Another child? Mike Brown wasnt a child, he was a 6'6" 290lb man who tried to take a cops weapon....a felony, his 2nd of the day.....where, by Missouri law, a cop is within his rights to use deadly force
oh yeah i forgor mike brown was a 6`6 290lb man that overpowered the 6`4 cop like he was a 5 year old in the hands of hulk hogan , hahaha yeah right :p


Now if by "child", you mean the 12y/o who was killed...yes, that is the only tragedy here. But he wasnt "unarmed". All accts I have read is that he was brandishing a very realistic looking airsoft pistol at people. Maybe if dispatch wldve mentioned to the responding officers that it was a toy, maybe it wldve turned out different. But instead of rushing to judgement, Ill wait for the investigation to be completed and all the facts revealed, before I make up my mind
a toy gun is NOT a real weapon so yes he was unarmed , and you can use the word `brandishing` all you want , but i would the word `playing with` you know , like kids usually do in parks , they `play with` their toys not `brandish` them

and do you trust a grand jury more than your own eyes or something ? , you know damn well that its rare for a cop to be indicted in cases like this , because who controls the crime scene and has the task of handing over all the evidence to that jury ? Oh yeah thats right its the cops job to do that , but luckily this time the video couldnt be any clearer on what happened , that child wasnt warned or even given a chance to drop the (toy) gun , the cops rolled up just feet away from him and executed him gangster style before the car had even stopped

FWIW its really interesting to me though that you wont condemn the murder of an innocent black child for the crime of playing with a toy gun in a park , even suggesting that it may of been the childs fault for `brandishing` a gun at the cops , but you did condone a bunch of armed with real guns white redneck thugs when they confronted the cops during the siege of tax sponger and known racist Cliven Bundy in Nevada a few months ago , the relevance and irony of that is not lost on me given recent events on this site i assure you

if only these 'emotions' cld arise whenever they kill themselves.....There is a saying being used in regards to Ferguson...."Black Lives Matter"....I guess that only applies to the handful of cop shootings......and not the thousands of blacks shooting other blacks situations
people of all races kill each other all the time but its a FACT that blacks are 20 times more likely to be killed by the cops than whites so there IS obviously a problem with cops targeting blacks


and finally that guy in the video speaks a lot of sense , but that child shot in Cleveland didnt do anything to deserve to be killed and i dont care what his forefathers or a minority in his community did or do to soil other black peoples reputation , he was just a dumb kid playing in the park like kids do and no amount of your police opologist bulls,hit is gonna change my mind on that

@TheCelt: I suggest you move over here and experierience it firsthand before you go making judgements. You have no idea what youre talking about on any of these problems. As a matter of fact, come over here and get a job as a cop and work New Orleans for a week....hell, there are neighborhoods where some wld just as soon rob and kill you as look at you....and get back to me. Until then, fu.ck Mike Brown, his sh!tty mother who didnt want anything to do with him until he died and she saw she can make a buck, and his stepdad who yelled "Burn this bitch down", and all those screaming racism at every single frikkin hurdle they face in life. Maybe its THEM.

Ya'll have at it. Im tired of dealing with a section of society who makes no effort to better themselves and only places blame for their circumstances at the feet of others, while totally ignoring those in similar circumstances that made their lives better......and doubly fu.ck those that believe their bullsh!t. I, for one, am not willing to make excuses for a segment of society un-willing to lift even a finger to help themselves.

Im out, footballs on.....see ya!


Btw.......





.....take that orange tip off the above airsoft pistol and it looks just like the Glock 19 its made to resemble. Just like the orange safety tip was off that poor kids gun.

"" Michael Brown’s mother
may face felony armed
robbery charges: report
Lesley McSpadden allegedly led a group of 20
to 30 people to a tent in a parking lot in
Ferguson, Mo. on Oct. 18 to beat and rob
vendors selling 'Justice for Michael Brown'
merchandise.
BY MARC WEINREICH /
NEW YORK DAILY NEWS /

The mother of Michael Brown could be
charged with felony armed robbery for
allegedly attacking people in a Ferguson, Mo.,
parking lot because they were selling T-shirts
honoring the late teenager.
The Ferguson Police Department is currently
investigating claims that Lesley McSpadden
brought a group of people — including her
own mother — to beat vendors and rob them
of their “Justice for Mike Brown” merchandise
Oct. 18, The Smoking Gun has learned.
One person was hospitalized in the reported
attack and another unidentified alleged victim
was reportedly beaten with a pipe.
McSpadden’s former mother-in-law, Pearlie
Gordon, was among those beaten by “a large
group of about 20-30 subjects” who had
“jumped out of vehicles and rushed” the group
of sellers, according to the police report.""

Guess we know where that thug POS learned his ways from.
