If you’re a white cop and a black is coming at you....whip out a white flag and raise your hands. The coroner will notify the family of your demise.

Here is a thought, responsible media reporting instead of inflaming the uneducated masses into burning down thier community and calling for a police officers arrest and conviction before the truth and evidence is available. This is just like running into a theater and yelling fire. When there is repercusions on the media to be resposible this will end

[boycott]

Here’s a thought .......

Looting = stealing.

The looters steal without giving it a second thought. I don’t know of any religion that gives approval to stealing.

The looters are clearly spiritually and morally void. There seems to be no remorse. These folks have a lot more to worry about than whitey.

I am guessing that these news guys don’t care because they live in the Hamptons or even possibly the Upper Class section of Missouri, and don’t feel that their luxurious lifestyle is being threatened.

From the article: "why aren’t these same blacks demanding—not requesting, but demanding—that blacks be granted their own separate homeland?
We’re not necessarily talking about a “back-to-Africa” movement, but perhaps a country carved out of American land?"

That is a very silly suggestion.
42 million blacks are never going to agree to move to any one state, and why should they?
It's more than the 38 million population of our #1 state, California.
The suggestion is as silly as saying all German-Americans, or Italian-Americans should move to their own special states.

Ain't goin' to happen, not now, not ever.

“If things are really as terrible—as “racist”—in America as so many blacks in Ferguson and elsewhere would have us believe, then why aren’t these same blacks demanding—not requesting, but demanding—that blacks be granted their own separate homeland? We’re not necessarily talking about a “back-to-Africa” movement, but perhaps a country carved out of American land?”

I vote we give them AZ or NV, the desert should remind them of home.

[Altura Ct.]

And wouldn’t it be infinitely better for everyone to peacefully go our separate ways rather than perpetually be at each other’s throats?

That not a single black “leader,” or anyone else, for that matter, has so much as suggested this as a possibility, much less demanded it, speaks volume

Amen to that. Besides where does all of this end up? With the ongoing invasion do people really believe 'race relations' will get better from here?

They can have Detroit.

We *know* that the giant was capable of being less than gentle when it suited his purposes.We *know* that he wasn't shot in the back.We *know* that he had illegal drugs (one,at least) in his system when he died.A young (black) woman was on CNN the other day saying that she saw a physical confrontation of some sort occur between the cop and the dead giant.Another guy claiming to have seen the whole thing posted a video in which he says that the giant rushed the cop.There are reports of noteworthy...and perhaps even serious...facial injuries having been suffered by the cop.

My guess,at this point,is that the worst that can be said about the cop is that,injured and afraid,he overreacted a bit in shooting.That,to me,is the VERY worst that can be said.An even more likely conclusion reached by a reasonable person is that,under *those* circumstances,it was absolutely understandable (and justified) for the cop to have fired.

I would be willing to give up my house and relocate to another state if blacks were given their own slice of America. The only thing I want in return is a guarantee that blacks pay their own way and they can never come back to white America. I would love to see how many black people fight to stay with white Americans.

"why aren’t these same blacks demanding—not requesting, but demanding—that blacks be granted their own separate homeland? We’re not necessarily talking about a “back-to-Africa” movement, but perhaps a country carved out of American land?"

Reminds me of an old Richard Pryor/Rev White skit.

“If you’re a white cop and a black is coming at you....whip out a white flag and raise your hands. The coroner will notify the family of your demise.”

No, even better give him your gun!

[Vendome]

C’mon. This ain’t no Rodney King event, which was a clear miscarriage by the police.

Brown is down and this news cycle should have ended two weeks ago.

At first I thought the cop had gone too far.

As more information comes to light, it’s looking more and more like he ended a thug before his career took off.

[elpadre]

the best way to stop violent protests is to keep media away. No publicity - no protests. Tell them they are to stay away for their own safely and then enforce their removal.

[elpadre]

who is going to support them?

[driftless2]

You know as well as I and everyone on the board that Big Lib Media will never be responsible. Even though the Klan no longer rides around, and young, black males are the biggest dangers to other young, black males, for political reasons BLM cannot let go of the narrative of innocent blacks oppressed and often wantonly murdered by a corrupt, racist system dominated by evil, white people.

If the lib media, in conjunction with their evil twins lib pols said, yes conservatives are right...blacks are responsible for their own problems, undoubtedly many blacks would stop voting for Dems. (I think many blacks would still vote for Dems if they promised to keep the "freebies" coming.) I don't know if it would be enough to sway the national elections, but it would be a strong possibility. Libs can't chance that. Therefore, they will keep their lying narrative going on as long as they can.

[mulligan]

Truth means nothing to many. Keeping this going means power and prestige and money to race pimps and headlines for the lying media.
