It was more than 1. The players injected the nfl into this on the side of anarchy and murder. Screw the nfl.
I think that the only way for this “Hands up, don’t shoot” meme to be put to sleep is for that accomplice of Brown’s, who started it, to be indicted and put on trial for incitement and perjury. Not enough people know that he was already accused of making false statements to police, or that he changed his story multiple times.
But that won’t happen. So the only thing we can do is adopt “hands up, don’t shoot” as our own, as the example of what Brown should have done and would still be alive today had he done so.
