Because its not just this one incedent. Cops are abusing their powers all over the country and its time we got together and said "We've had enough of this shit! We want every officer to have a camera on their vest and be held accountable!" But non-violence is the only way. People who riot only make themselves look like fools and ruin their "cause" if they even had any. This is not just about Missouri this is about the discusting abuse of power that is happening all the time in every state!
Normal? WTF is normal? I think that ended about 1955, for better or worse. Getting involved with your own state would be a good idea.
"It's time for us, as a people, to start making some changes; let's change the way we eat, let's change the way we live, and let's change the way we treat eachother. You see, the old way wasn't working, so it's on us to do what we gotta do........to survive." [media]http://youtu.be/vL5sdu3pNrU[/media]
And don't steal things that don't belong to you and get an education and a job and some proper quality of life.
the wikipedia article has a lot of info. not saying it's definitive though https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shooting_of_Michael_Brown the physical evidence either supports or fails to contradict (but doesn't necessarily confirm) Wilson's version of events. what witnesses say is contradictory. Brown was moving forward toward Wilson at the time that the final shots were fired according to physical evidence, but it's not clear if he was falling forward, or rushing forward. i don't see much that is clear cut here.
What if he had a bomb strapped to his chest? Would there be an uproar then? All of a sudden mister policeman would look kinda smart.
Hmm....I'll just toss this out there. Interesting read. http://news.yahoo.com/how-prosecutor-bob-mcculloch-s-controversial-past-is-making-matters-worse-in-ferguson-212622087.html
Another interesting read.... http://thinkprogress.org/justice/2014/11/26/3597322/justice-scalia-explains-what-was-wrong-with-the-ferguson-grand-jury/ The first one is about the prosecutors very close ties to the local police dept. His father, brother, nephew and cousin were/are all cops in the dept. and his mother worked there as a clerk. He wanted to become a cop but lost a leg so he couldn't. The link in this post relates to how grand juries are supposed to work and how he pretty much ignored that and went out of his way to make sure there were no charges for the cop. I think he should, at least, be fired as a prosecutor and maybe even face the state bar about his ethics and whether or not he should be practicing law.
Im sure much of those people would like a job. but those have lost interest in seeking jobs that dont exist. even if a nigga had a job at the car dealers, or wallgreen, the beauty shop. how many jobs does that really account for when you have +3000 others unemployed. and while we play the EBT card name calling. Not everyone qualifies for that. leaving another +2--- lint lined pockets... bread, butter, eggs and milk, meat alone 20$ where does this magical 20$ comes from??? where there is no employment and a nigga cant even pay another nigga to cut the grass or shovel the snow cause a nigga aint got shit... if the root of all evil is money, then what is the root of all money?
As far as I'm concerned, there's dams to be dug, roads to be layed, litter to collect... Jobs errywhere.
Umm... but that's not the reason he was shot. He was shot because he charged an officer and went for his gun.
how long has it been since you lived in america? this isn't exactly true...or even close really. or maybe the lack of jobs is another lie from the media (i'm not really being sarcastic here) and i just fell for it. i've had a job pretty much ever since i started working when i was 17, but i feel lucky to have one too.
there are many jobs yes.. a mofo can buy an axe, sickle, go door to door and earn a buck.. this black man today in the Arlington section today was playing the trumpet. I give the man 5bucks. why ? I dont know, I was moved to do so, his playing actually made me cry inside .. snow coming down hard, his whino face puffed up on the instrument (maybe he isnt a whino) he played to the backed up traffic. that 5$ is really a lot to me. I aint got shit but a psychopath paying rents to me, ive the IRS crushing my nuts with inconclusive data on income,ive a suspended license cause a business sold me a fucking car with hacked inspection but I cant prove it( hell a nigga can go to his car lot and set it a blaze, but Ive done enough damage to that pos to satisfies me,. ) ...ive my license restore in 10days or so. work lined up but that work only pays for a little more self indulgence as I depend on idiots to pay rents., I have lost 4 major properties because renters either damaged or were not paying proper. tons of shit home around her get section *8 government checks to pay rent. ,Im not one those.. lost any where from $4,500 income a month to $8,000. I shit you not. ,and those fucking clowns still have flip ur property seminars at the convention center.. Get fucked!!!
