Salty, I am curious, have you watched the video? I see nothing in anything he did that I would consider resisting arrest. He did nothing threatening toward the police officers. Surely they could have had a bit more patience and talked to him longer. While he was on the ground he said twice, "I can't breathe, I can't breathe."

Most of us watched the video from the right side of the room. We know you watch television from the left side of your room, which is why yu have a different slant on how you saw the event! :wavey:

Only outdoors or indoors if under arms.

I see a pattern developing here. Some people are trying to say that because a person may be doing something illegal it's enough to justify his death.

What's interesting to note is that the people saying this have probably done something illegal in the last few days without even realizing it.

John Stossel's Illegal Everything

This Stossel special will blow your mind! The government, especially the EPA is out of control as well as local prosecutors trying to make a name for themselves.

Why are you still watching Fox News?

You sound like the one who's irked.

In case you haven't heard the cops don't have a duty to keep you safe, relative or otherwise.

That's your responsibility.

Yeah. I made that point. Kind of impossible to protect yourself with so many things working against you.

Another news flash for ya, we're all criminals now. Due process and guilty until proven innocent are things of the past, unless you happen to be rich or well connected.
That's more a rant than an answer to my question.


I don't care if this guy had 3,331 priors the cop used a banned choke hold. I don't have to define what banned means, do I?
Yeah. I'm not so much of an anarchist that I'm willing to justify living in an area with folks like this walking around.

Put me down as more offended about this young man's criminal record, and the fact that he was allowed to walk around victimizing the populace seemingly with immunity, than the fact that he died resisting arrest.

The East Coast is the most liberal place in the U.S. If they could, they would hang this cop.

Are you daft? I never said anything about him being or not being a racist.

I said you keep feeding him.

Let me try to explain this. Zaac as everyone knows is a troll. His posts are designed to get people like you into long stupid arguments that go nowhere and accomplish nothing.

I very rarely reply to Zaac's posts so you don't see me and Zaac going back and forth acting like a couple of little girls in a pig tail pulling contest.

Leave him be. He'll go away. And even if he doesn't there's no reason you have to look as foolish as he does by getting into with him. In other words don't feed the troll.

Capsice?

Well .... if he is the troll you claim he is, why have the mods not removed him. I thought trolls were not allowed.

It's not that I don't agree with your view on Zaac, as well as a few others, but calling one a troll and the mods following their policy of banning these trolls, is the folly of this board!

Insulting me doesn't change the reality that some of those mired in white privilege refuse to see.

The inability of white people to hear black reality—to not even know that there is one and that it differs from our own—makes it nearly impossible to move forward.

But how can we expect black folks to trust law enforcement or to view it in the same heroic and selfless terms that so many of us apparently do when that very law, from one side of the country to the other has been a weapon used against black bodies, not a shield intended to defend them, and for a very long time?

Time to wake up a recognize that justice isn't as blind as yall would like for her to be.

Did he die from the "chock hold"? Or did bad health play a major role?

If you or I were as ill as this guy was reported to be, plus, if we had been arrested nine times for selling "Loosies" we would have expected when we saw the cops show up that we were going to be arrested, and knowing out health conditions, we would have acted properly to protect our health and life, by NOT resisting what happened nine previous times!

But you and I are reasonable, law abiding, and logical people who respect the laws, and never would have been breaking the law in the first place! :laugh:

Careful, or you will be blamed for the demise of one or more liberals on this board because of this dastardly common sense babbling!!!:laugh:

Surely you don't want that on your conscience do you??

As to the OP, I lay the blame for his death on his parents. After all, they were the ones who, through their $exual appetites, produced this guy, & if that had not happened, he would never have died.

But then there are his parent's parents, who, had they not ------- WAIT A MINUTE!!!!! Please somebody pinch me. I seem to be dreaming, and am talking like a liberal; please wake me up!! :confused::eek:

Perhaps because as one mod put it, disagreeing with yall or posting something in opposition to your POV does not amount to trolling.

And perhaps if the lot of you spent half as much time concerned about other people as you do about how you can get rid of and denigrate anyone who disagrees with ya, you might appear somewhat genuine for once.:thumbsup:

Definition:


"White Privilege"- a derogatory term used to demonize those who have more as a result of more initiative, risk, and work. It allows for some people to remain in a "victim" status while working to bring others down to their level. The ultimate goal is shared misery.

All hail the King of Denigration and Emperor of Judgment of those who disagree with his highness!

It's not "Emporer", but emperor. And rd2, you are acting childish.

You, and your childish friends, bring out the child in me! Thanks, I need to feel young once in the while! Oh, I see nothing wrong with the spelling of emperor? Did you mean to indicate it should not be capitalized?

A European friend posted the following on Facebook:

SS
Gestapo
KGB
American police

Who is big brother now.

Harsh post that I do not agree with, but it shows the reputation we have and are enforcing around the world.

It's great for an oldster to feel young. But you act immature in a negative sense.

You made your post at 1:23. I noted your incorrect spelling at 1:28. You then revised the spelling at 1:46. So you did indeed see something wrong with your initial spelling.
