Ferguson: Your Thoughts.

[CookingOkasan]

and I responded to your ignorance but that's fine, just please stay on topic, I really don't want this thread to be closed cuz people want to make it about 'whaT abOUT uS WHiTE Folk!??!'

This is exactly the reason I'm not going to touch that any further. If necessary, feel free to reach me in my inbox though Oath.

I still think that there's no reason to riot. Michael Brown's father didn't even want to see people riot.

I wish stuff like this doesn't get taken to the national news.

I want the protests to take over the news, but ok. And I only agree on the looting being bad.

Commentary is not the same as making it about white people.

Also how do you even know if Im white oe not

Commentary to the point where you try to make it about white people and teeter away from the real issue is making it about white people. And idc if ur white or not, I'm a white passing latina big whooping ****. Just because your not white doesn't mean you can make it about white people wtf.

Anyway if you want to talk about whites then message me if you have to. I'm now ignoring this whole 'white ppl are G00D 2222!!?!' when this is NOT what this is about.

i also want to know what is the "appropriate" number of shots to be fired by all the armchair analysts here.

zimmerman was hispanic, there goes the narrative that white ppl love going around slaying blacks

He's also been proved to be violent and have been in multiple cases of trouble with the police since trayvons death but ok ))))

0, that would be the number.

Okay.

The joke is that there weren't any injuries. Brown was shot SIX times, how on earth anybody actually believes that brown got to the cop after being shot six times (may I note that one of those shots hit him in the face, fatally killing him) is stupid.

Tumblr and twitter have been deleting a lot of pictures and posts regarding the ferguson case. Doesn't that tell you something?

Ehh, I was just simply referening to the fact that people actually die from a head injuries, so we can't simply state that his life wasn't in danger. Yes, those were not serious injuries, but they could be. You may tell that's gonna hurt before someone gonna to hit you, but you can't predict that you'll be ok for 100%. If there is any chance of death, it is life threatening.

I've never said I belive in any version of events, so not sure why you assumed I may or may not belive in above version. The only thing that tumblr tells me is that some people don't even know what they reblog, because they don't bother to read it.

This is from wikipedia, so it's probably not a very reliable source of info, but nevertheless
"A police dispatcher reported a "stealing in progress" at 11:53, and at 11:57 dispatch said the suspect was wearing a red Cardinals hat, a white T-shirt, yellow socks, and khaki shorts, and was accompanied by another man. At noon, Wilson radioed to ask other officers searching for the suspects if they needed him and was told by dispatch that they had disappeared"

He may had been aware that there was a robbery, but not that Brown and his friend were involved in it when the altercation started, according to the police chief (said directly by the chief either in the video in the article I linked or another that I can probably find later but I'm in class right now). This is what was said in the hours/days after the incident, yet Wilson later testified to the jury that Brown had the stolen cigarillos in his hand, despite them not being found at the scene. I mean, it's easy to understand the lack of faith put in whatever the police department/Wilson has said when they have so blatantly continued to contradict each other.

no my particular issue is with the ppl who claim that wilson fired an excessive number of shots. they seem to think that one bullet is enough to stop a threat.

read this one case study: http://www.policeone.com/patrol-iss...ne-cop-carries-145-rounds-of-ammo-on-the-job/

the assailant was shot 14 times in places that were fatal, but not immediately so. in the meantime, he continued to be an active threat.

so ur narrative was that brown was minding his own business when wilson just filled him with lead?

>implying mike brown was a threat

In the eyes of the law-enforcement in America, everybody's a threat.

I don't think the issue is over weather Brown's crime was punishable by death, but rather should Wilson have used deadly force, which is supposed to be used as a last resort when everything else fails. Wilson should have used a taser, but he admits that he doesn't carry one around because there is only one in his entire police department, and that it sits uncomfortably on his waist.

and obviously racial profiling

o truuu I don't get why after he got punched he didn't just drive away or something since you're supposed to retreat 0:

It's not the $6 worth that it's about. What Michael Brown did wrong was that he grabbed for the officer's gun. That's what got him killed.

Why did you even mention the cigs if it doesn't even matter then lol What got him killed is that Wilson shot him when he could of done something else (pretty sure he didn't grab for it? wilson already had it out i think..)

No, not at all! But we're focusing on the deaths that are at the hands of police brutality. They can't help it if they all happen to be white

To bad the actual threat level Wilson had on all accounts is minimal compared to the article you linked.

Also, just because fatal shots CAN not be instantly as such shouldn't excuse them being used except in desperate situations.

no, ur thinking of a civilian self defence encounter where u have a duty to retreat and not to pursue. wilson was a police officer, its his job to pursue and apprehend the suspect.
