Tight thread.
At least the white trash racists on NWP and Boris were funny.
boreigan how much do you love black people
let me repeat, the last hit put Brown down--that was the one to the head...so by your own criteria, there was no waste of ammunition
re: well trained, undoubtedly the cop here was aware that a person running can cover 21 feet in about 1.5 seconds--Brown was about 15 feet away when he turned and charged...thus the office knew he had little time to shoot, probably not enough time to carefully aim; so i would claim the officer was well trained in recognizing his need to react promptly....re shooting accuracy, on a range with gun out in a Weaver stance, with time to align using the sights, and shooting at a stationary target anyone, even you Sonny, can make a shot grouping of a few inches at 7 yards(a good shooter less than an inch)...but off balance, after being dazed by receiving a punch, under stress from a charging villain, and with maybe on 1 or 2 seconds to shoot, the shot grouping will be much wider...i've read that groupings are usually 3 times wider in life threatening situations compared to range shooting performance...and instant drop of a charging villain happens only if the hit is in very small portion of the target's body....so your notion of 2 shots is enough is full of shit....and also remember, in general the police (and military) have a philosophy that a fair fight is a stupid fight, take no chances and be sure of having a winning advantage...
and btw, an enemy soldier going down is not proof that he is not still a threat...its common to "play dead" in hope of escaping--or as the Marines in WW2 Pacific experience, seemingly dead Japanese would jump up with grenades in suicide attacks...so Marines would often make sure the enemy soldier was dead

Very unlikely that an unarmed man running suddenly turns and charges. That makes absolutely no sense.
Hey when you get hit by an M14 the bullet starts to tumble. And brother when it comes out the hole is a big as a dinner plate.
I was only in one firefight over there as I was in the artillery.
But that night I fired my gun I know I hit at least a half dozen of those chinks and not one got up. They were dead Fred as the enemy wasn't pulling any of their's off that mountain that night.
This Rambo cop shot a mouthy n#gger and not that I want to see him go down for it but he will.
This is too big a rumble not to get a conviction on the copper. And brother if it doesn't happen America is in for the biggest race riot there ever has been. Of course the n#ggers will lose but in the end everyone loses.
Hey I don't like Negros but we brought the f#ckers here so we're going to have to pay for it.
I deleted that post on my own. I saw it minutes after you posted it, and Pooh hadn't even seen it yet (unless he was lurking right at that moment).
In general I don't interfere with most of the insults thrown about here, but I think the dad thing is cruel (especially since nobody actually thinks Pooh did anything wrong there), and I don't want the forum to become that toxic of an environment. There is a fine line here between a generally free speech forum and one that becomes so harsh that most people deem the environment too stressful to be worth posting.
That was the first post of yours I've ever deleted, btw.
Anyway, I think everyone is falling into the racism trap here.
Too many black people and guilty white liberals are using this as an excuse to scream about how unfairly the police treat black people, while too many racists are using this as an excuse to bash black people.
In reality, we don't know what happened here, and I think we see enough evidence that the "victim" could have left the cop no choice. Or the cop could have stepped over the line and shot someone too hastily, which of course is bad, but not necessarily representative of racism.
I can really see it happening either way, and barring future evidence coming out, we will never know, so it's too hard to make judgments here.
Agree somewhat. If I were a hardcore racist like the White Nationalist, the Klan, etc I would have been secretly arming the blacks and inciting them to go after the police so that more of them would get killed. It could have been apocalyptic in Ferguson if they had played it correctly. It would be an amended version of Charles Manson's idea of the blacks rising up and eventually winning but not being smart enough to run the country so they would come to him for leadership.
I will say this, though.
I am a white male in my 40s, and have about as far as you can get from a thuggish look, so I'm not exactly the type who fits a stereotype of being dangerous.
However, when having any encounter with the police (usually traffic stops), I always make sure to speak calmly, keep my hands in view, not make sudden motions, and generally appear cooperative and non-threatening.
This makes the police officer feel comfortable that he is safe, and therefore is MUCH less likely to attack me.
Sadly, certain people (especially thug types) deal with police in a confrontational and threatening manner, and then cry foul when things go wrong. While the police do need to follow protocol and can't just attack people unjustifiably or use unnecessary force, it's also foolish to escalate the situation or make the officer feel like you might be a problem.
If everyone approached police encounters cautiously, there would be a lot fewer "brtuality" incidents.
This only works if your white, if you were a black man, you would be handcuffed outside your car and beaten with a stick.
Because this cop was white, he will not be charged with murder.
Instead he will be promoted to Lieutenant and continue to beat and kill more negroes.
Now if this cop were black and he killed an unarmed white kid, what do you think would happen?
The media would be talking about what matter of execution he would be facing.
