Well, I'm sure they would only throw you to the ground if you didn't comply, which would make you an even worse criminal than you already are for not returning a library book.

Also, I don't think cops can ask for money, that's just silly logic.

The cops had no jurisdiction to force garner on the ground and choke him to death for a crime as petty as jaywalking. Don't for a second become blind to the circumstances just to side with the law enforcement. They too, like the politicians and all other humans, are fallible and make mistakes. This mistake cost a man his life and they should be punished for it. Simple as that.

...., but they didn't do it because of the petty crime he committed, they did it because he wouldn't listen.


Do you not listen to people who have more authority over you? I sure do. I'm not that ignorant.

Got tired of following this thread. Who cares!!!! Black society gives zero shit when their people commit crimes and cant follow the law, and when something unfortunate happens they act like someone killed their god damn messiah.

What about all the white dudes that stole cigarettes nd got shot or done much more stupid shit..... No one cares?

Give me a fucking break. These scumbags are a waste and drag within society. Not only are they doing illegal business, I have to send them food stamps every month, who the hell is helping me pay my bills.

Garner was a dick as well. He got what he deserved. You want to take risks, better be able to pay up for them as well. That guy was the size of a whale and I'm sure he was not being cooperative. How do you take down an uncooperative whale? Grab it by its neck... Come on people stop being such fucking liberals.

I miss human compassion, that's all. There were five cops listening to a guy genuinely crying out for help and did nothing.

You have a kind heart and that's very genuine. * I'm serious not trying to be an ass.

Though where it you on the ground, I doubt those cops would care either. What goes around comes around. Live a life that brings you respect and you wont be on the ground choking of an asthma attack with no one willing to call for help.

I don't agree with the Garner decision but he got himself in the position of potential problems.
I, for one, have much more compassion towards the children, here and elsewhere, that don't have food etc.

These are adults that lived lives knowing completely well the danger that could confront them.

The children have little to no hope the way things are. A young man who is given the time to be taught what is "really" right and wrong will have such a better chance. They just aren't getting the attention it seems.

It's a fine line, I know, but that's what bothers me.

No one cares. I already posted the story about someone here in my home city last year who was white, got shot five times, and died for (while under the influence) acting like a dipshit and attacking a police officer with a weapon he took from the officer and it got passed by SO fast. Glad this thread proved my point about what the media and idiot liberals really give a shit about.

If they had any experience at all, the would have heard such cries many, many times before, from bad guys who were simply trying to get the attention of others, or get their cry heard on the cell phone video, or even try to escape if force is reduced.

Its like the Boy who cries wolf; sadly when there really is a true problem, it's not taken seriously because of all the many, many others before them who ruined it for the rest of us.

Cops quickly learn that high levels of compassion can bite them in the ass, so they become more jaded in order to do their job and survive. What compassion they do risk showing, is probably more likely going to be reserved for those who are not past 30+ interactions with the police already.

If you're going to compare things to the Gestapo, it must be said that the Gestapo were finally taken out by a planned, coordinated effort on behalf of a lot of determined people.

Not by individuals who, when outnumbered in a personal interaction with the Gestapo, foolishly tried to single-handedly fight back by themselves against several armed men. Those who did try that ended up in the same fate as Michael Brown, and achieved nothing. They are like your theoretical dumbass who dies over a measly $25 instead of being smart, paying the damn fine in the moment, and living to fight that dispute properly the next day.

You know what would be news worthy? Seeing one of these ass clown go to college, finishing a degree, and starting a reputable multi million dollar company.

Though hearing of this accomplishment will be as likely as seeing hell freezing over. Give it another month or so and all these protests are goanna give these losers a greater sense of entitlement resulting in another ass clown with a couple 9mm rounds in their chest or laying on the street dying of asthma.

Its kinda like self fulfilling prophecy

^ That's exactly what I meant.

Maybe should have inserted...
So just don't do it!

It's like
Well, I need the money.

Maybe that billboard would flash in people's head's.
I don't know.

Tell that to all the folks who do just that but still get harassed on a regular basis by police. It's easy to take what you see in your neighborhood and think that applies across the board in America. In many underprivileged communities, this luxury of being a good citizen and avoiding harassment does not exist.

Not sure about buying into all that.
Life's a bitch in some degree for everyone.
Being harassed is not an end it all.
The 7 year old battling cancer...that's painful harassment.

Inequity is a part of life.
Live in the ghetto, cops will be a lot more punishing than if you're whitebread $$$.
This is not racism, it's a fact of life.

No, "hate" is everywhere in this thread. If you disagree with the sentiment that Michael Brown was a completely innocent martyr for the harassed and downtrodden you, sir, are a racist full of hate.

So just because some have it worse justifies intentional inequality and harassment? Gotcha.
