i think there are many factors.
who if your life was on the line would you rather fight to the death with if you were forced too? A small white woman or a large black man? tv and music has much to do with the programming of peoples views and it is a fine line because i know very many scary looking people that would help a stranger way before a so called normal person would.

Nope. Go back through our discussion, your initial comment to me was based on the idea that I thought it was interesting that I see the same white people declaring that nothing is ever about race. Where do these people get their information that nothing is ever about race?
You should be asking them these questions, not me.

Your definition leaves a lot to be desired and is verging on nonsensical.

If pointing out and drawing attention to racism is "race-hustling", then I guess I'm guilty.

So now what? How do we stop racism?

I don't know if you had a clear answer to my question, so I'll ask again.
Do you think race was a factor?

The information is this......in this instance all of the info has not yet been released.
It truly is a shame that you don't understand something so simple.
If you desire more insight..I suggest start looking into on your own. It is amazing all the info you can find, if you just look for it.
You have yet to show anything being racist.
You can't.
Gardner died because of his actions..race was not a factor.
Brown died because of his actions..race was not a factor.
The loser that drew a firearm on the LEO just recently died because of his actions..race was not a factor.

Have fun with the other kids.

Yup. So, like I said, why aren't you after the people claiming that this wasn't racially motivated? They are making claims without evidence. Go ahead, I'll wait.
originally posted by: DrJunk
Not really sure what that means, how am I to gain more insight into your opinion of what race hustling is by looking into it on my own? It doesn't even make sense what you're saying...
originally posted by: DrJunk
What have I claimed was racist?
originally posted by: DrJunk
So, that's your solution? Protect racism because it is a First Amendment Right?
originally posted by: DrJunk
That's a pretty weak stance. I can't even take this seriously anymore.
originally posted by: DrJunk
You are the one making claims that race wasn't a factor. So, now you are in people's heads? Interesting turn of events, I guess.

They stated he was under arrest. Very simple.....there is no "5 second rule" when given a lawful command.
Gardner did not comply. So, that is the very basis of resisting arrest.
Brown...attacked a LEO and was shot for doing so.

so your answer is that you want more violence.

the tactics you mentioned are unlawful and only allows perps to go free if they have money to get a lawyer.

How so?
I worked to arrest on average 3-4 DUI arrests a night. I had one of the lowest percentages of physical altercations on my department. Most patrol officers were processing maybe 2 DUIs a week.
I purposely interacted with drunk people more so then others, yet, using my tactics, I was more successful.
There are different ways of dealing with different people.
Some, when told they were under arrest, would shrink and comply.
Some, would puff up, go rigid and resist.
Got to know how to deal with each.

Ummm, no again. Please explain how it is unlawful.

One thing at a time.
Your first up.
Very simply. Go an look at what Sharpton and Jackson do. If you don't get it, then you don't get it.
That the actions within the OP were due to the woman's race.
Ummm yeah. Just because you don't agree with how someone exercises their rights, doesn't mean you get to deny them that right.
Actually the facts came out for those incidents listed.
There was shown to be no motivation by racism.
