RE: Washington DC right now

RE: Washington DC right now
And anyways there are two sides to the story. Just cause you think it's one way doesn't mean it is, but doesn't mean it isn't. Racism is a big reason people disagree. The facts can be interpreted differently and I feel the main reason all these stories are hyped up is because it's always a white person shooting a black person and the facts are never straight. You don't see white people killing whit people.

RE: Washington DC right now
That is actually false. I agree with you in the sense that racism lies deep within our society, and people seem to always bring to surface the white cops shooting the colored or ethnic person. But these same people don't realize the facts. I'm not saying there are facts within each shooting itself, as we all know that it's a judgement call that these police officers must make. But let's look at the hard facts, over the past decade, 2,151 white people were killed by police officers, while only 1,130 blacks were. Why don't we hear about any of these white on white brutalities? Or for a matter of fact, why don't we hear about any of the BLACK on white killings? Because it's simple. Racism seems to be labeled as a one-sided thing within society now. Racism seems to be recognized as white's mistreatment on blacks, not the reverse effect in the slightest.

RE: Washington DC right now
White people killing white people is always dismissed in favor of the law because there is cold hard proof. Black people don't really kill white people as compared to blacks killing other blacks. Racism in our society works two ways. It's either A) White people care or pretend to care about blacks so they don't seem racist but that's still racist cuz nobody asked for them to care or B) white people think they are dominant and favor their race.

As for me wanting to be a law enforcement official myself, I have looked at this case up and down and looked at the facts. Brown never put his hands up to surrender. Autopsy reports prove that. There was also a fight over the officers weapon. NAACP supporters always feel like they are owed something. I support Martin Luther King Jr. when he and his supporters PEACEFULLY protested. I do not support the way African American activists are "protesting" today. The shooting of Brown would have still happened if he happened to be white. The shooting still would have happened if Officer Wilson was black.

You sir are an idiot. You're probably 14 irl and have no idea what you're talking about. How the flying fuck can an autopsy report prove that Brown never put his hands up? I agree with the decision that was made but I just wanted to point out your idiocy.

RE: Washington DC right now
such facts in this one...
as for your MLK statement, there were plenty of violent protests in the 60s... That were much worse than anything by today's standards.
how does an autopsy report show if he puts his hands up or not?Darth Vader said:

Perhaps you should research before calling others idiots. Bullet entrances and exits all play a part in how a situation like this played out. I'm not even a Doctor and I know this, so I can't go into much detail about it, but yes.. it is possible.
Search for yourself.
