i see you can't argue with logic so you resort to calling the man names.
question, if you just had your face smashed in by a punk and when you got out of your car and he rushes you and you have a gun are you gonna stand there and let him beat you again, or are you gonna shoot?
even cops have a right to self defense.

Did GoGo accuse you of making blanket statements?
That is rich coming from someone who says "patrol officers are nothing but low IQ tax collecters."
That is so hypocritical.

I said potentially and i am right.
Listen man, I am an extreme conservative libertarian. So no I don't play the race card.
But when someone calls me a thug apologist because i argue against an unarmed man being killed by a crooked cop then yeah I have to wonder when they are calling that man a thug, etc, without knowing him.
If he was a white guy and did the same thing I know for a fact you wouldn't have called him a ghetto thug.

You have to realize that it is not as common to have white ghettos as it is to have black ghettos. Is that not true? Since I know that to be a fact, the title of ghetto thug is appropriate when speaking of black criminals. It's simple logic...

I really made this thread to discuss the fact that the store owner didn't make a call, and that we as a people should request the anonymous 911 call that led to this kids death, but unfortunately the thread filled up with cop worshipers and people with race issues. So we can't have an actual discussion.
I've held my own against a move of insulting people long enough. I'll come back when you guys are at recess and try again.

I would agree with the assessment of you being a bit of a thug apologist. And even more so based on your statement above. You say an "unarmed man" then say a "crooked cop". When in actuality it should be "a strong armed robber" and "a cop that I know nothing about other than he killed a known criminal". Please show me something anywhere that shows this cop is crooked. I think you have seen the video at this point of Brown being a criminal thug.
There was nothing to defend himself against.

You guys are so phobic of black people. If he works in that neighborhood and deals with that kinda stuff he'd have no problem calling the cops if he felt like he needed to.
The kid was a punk, but he was an 18 year old college student a week away from starting classes. He was acting like an ass, but how can you say he deserved to die for that?
