Ferguson Grand Jury Says A Badge Is A License To Kill Unarmed Black Guys

[LaserWolf]

FG, I am in reading through the transcript now.





He says he called for back up as soon as he KNEW he had the person involved in the quick market shoplifting. And again after he was attacked. But the calls did not go through because he was on the wrong frequency. But he twice heard radio reports about the shoplifting and the description.

Still no answers to:





-Why a report wasn't filed until long after the incident occurred

Questions about if he ever wrote down what happened





My statement had been written for my attorney ... The department has not asked me for anything ...

 

[swissbeatz]

From the outside world this Grand Jury thing looks ridiculous ( I even with agree with Frank, god...)





Oh wait, you don't care anyway because you're the greatest country on the planet with the best Judicial system, etc, etc.....

I did find this interview in Ebony with Pharrell in which he raises the question of Michael Brown's actions. Now I'm sure most if not all of the posts talk about the murder and most probably have brought up the obvious racism, Pharrell's interview brings up the idea of personal responsibility for ones actions. Perhaps this can be something different to add to the usual conversation.







They're both real and important topics to address. Structure and agency are both a part of the causal system. And by way of agency, personal responsibility of adults, kids and cops has to be considered. All of these things has to be examined to prevent these things in the future.





But make no mistake, corrupt institutions needs to be fixed for there to ever be justice in this world. I normally like the influence that unions have had to strengthen worker rights, but doctors and cops have the worst unions evar, sometimes.





Related: anyone got those 2CD issues of It Takes A Nation... and FOABP? (And where is Ice Cube in all of this in 2014?)

as if that has any bearing whatsoever.


Unless cops are supposed to see through clothes?




Of course it has bearing. Even Wilson doesn't say he feared Brown was armed. Take your head out of your ass. It's chinzdeep.




Wilson alluded to the Hulk Hogan demon reaching for his waistband simultaneously as he grunted and charged at him as his left hand closed into a fist. Really, we should all commend him on his amazing recall and promote him to detective.




Mark Fuhrman's getting old. Fox News will need a new Super Cop Hero to explain the ins and outs of the War On Swarthy.

why shouldn't I believe the Grand Jury result again?


I missed that.




I could spend an hour discussing the Ramones with a bucket of shit, but at the end of the hour the bucket of shit wouldn't know "Beat On The Brat" from "I Wanna Be Sedated."





So why waste an hour? It's easier to just put a lid on the bucket.

The cop got 2 APBs that there had been a theft in the area and got descriptions of the suspect both times.




That's not what the cops were saying in the immediate aftermath of the shooting. They said Wilson did NOT know about that so-called theft.





And we don't know what Wilson's immediate claims were because he never made a statement. Meanwhile the "prosecution" and his fellow cops were leaking bogus information every chance they got, such as the complete lie about his "blown-out orbital socket." Take a look at the photos of Wilson's "injuries" - you could hurt yourself worse shaving.





If what you're saying is true Wilson got TWO descriptions of Brown, then ordered him out of the road minutes later, then had an OH SNAP moment and figured maybe THIS was the gi-normous suspect he'd heard about and slammed his car into reverse. Yeah, sure.

Without exception the "personal responsibility" crowd has a list of rules they are exempt from following themselves.

in the end we have another unarmed dead black man at the hands of a cop with a gun.


period


if the situation was reversed M brown would be on death row right now and or locked away for life.


fuck this racist shit and your bullshit justifications


yea you can always count on me to LCD and gut react to murder of an unarmed minority in this fashion







That's what crappy calls "impotent rage." Apparently he thinks anger is something you should reserve for serious matters, like being sent a VG record when the description said VG+.

You mean you can't think of any, Chinz?





Start with "personal responsibility" Saint Ayn Rand going on welfare when she got old and sick. Advance to all the pot-smoking, whore-fucking, actress-doping-and-raping-Jello-pudding-pop pricks, the daily pot smokers who who support Drug Warriors, the farm subsidy leeches who denounce welfare moms...





How many examples do you need and why couldn't you think of any yourself?

 

[BallzDeep]

Rules, bub. Not examples.


Let's see em.

this is the worst. no wait, the comments are the worst. i can't tell anymore.

 

[ketan]

Have all four of these eyewitnesses been shown to be conspiring against the truth or is this not probable cause?

[BallzDeep]

Screw this thread, not sure why I even entered.


Respect to everyone's opinion. Even Laz's.


You're all real people out there, all of whom I would get along with in person I'm sure.


This bickering and smart-assery is unproductive and not healthy.





I'm not celebrating the death of a young black kid.


Tased, sprayed, etc. all better outcomes for sure,


but unfortunately it didn't go down that way.





Peace out (even Laz).

All of the evidence and testimony they received has been released to the public. You can decide for yourself.
