a bit earlier, they burned some flags. Scuffle about half hour ago, don’t know about what but Mustafa (Iammikebrown feed) and Reb claim to have been peppersprayed while on the sidewalk as it seemed someone was on the ground being arrested.
Police line has formed on Grand, and there’s the usual onesided shouting match going on at the moment
This one is about as clear-cut as it gets. But the race pimps will still try to twist the truth around like a balloon animal.

these idiots are complaining the officer shot too many times. So, if someone gets off three rounds in your direction and is still pulling the trigger, how many shots in response is ‘too many” for these damned fools?
He was unarmed except for the gun.
That was yesterday. Already protesting last night.
The cop just should’ve shut up and taken the bullet, you know- in the interests of racial harmony.

The FBI and other sources of homicide by law enforcement figures below include the majority of all police departments.
The point of this reply is to point out that whites are the most likely to die while being arrested.
The Obama-Holder U.S. Dept. Just Us and the race-grievance industry will of course exploit all shootings to the max vis-a-vis race more than any concern for the poor victim.
The ARD data show that whites are more likely to die while being arrested and IMO there is no doubt that some of those deaths were the intention of the police.
But the main point is I bet that policemen don't care about race compared to protecting themselves from being killed or maimed.
And what about Ms Carey the unarmed, young black woman chased, surrounded and gunned down by federal agents in D.C.? Where's the Obama-Holder U.S. Dept. Just Us and the race-grievance industry caring about her and her baby?

To me this shows that it is not a racial thing. It happens to all races. These figures however do not show those thought "murdered" by police. I have not yet located data for recent years. Why can't I find data for recent years? I do not know.. maybe the Dept of Just Us and Race-Grievance Industry don't want it known that whites are the most likely to die being arrested.
Yeah, r-i-i-i-i-ght! Those things always instill confidence. Fer shur.
The leftist race baiters are trying like hell to get the fires burning again. They messed up the first one, now they are at it again.
Ya know, an armed and wanted felon being gunned down after firing three times at a cop he was fleeing would not even have been a blimp on the radar if it weren’t for ‘black racism’.
Why is it the cop’s fault that the armed felon was ‘black’ ?
I prefer this headline: “Thug Kills Self While Stealing
Lead From Discharged Police Weapon.
This complaint comes from those who like using an Uzi in a drive-by because it's fully automatic.
In the 60’s and 70’s cops would just stop going into areas where they weren’t allowed to do their jobs. How did that help those communities?
I’ve lived in cities where people would say “you just don’t go there”. One is Nashville (I live in Franklin TN) back around 1990 when lower Broadway and 2nd Ave. were off limits. Crime, homeless everywhere, boarded up buildings, prostitution in open.
President of Black Lawyers For Justice Malik Shabazz: There Will be a Rebellion if Officer Darren Wilson is not indicted!

It was not another police shooting.
The man defended himself against a thug who shot at him 1st.
The cop prevented a murder.
” If the accusers who claim that Myers was unarmed are correct, such specific claims by the police are going to prove essentially impossible to hold up.”
What an ass backwards way of looking at anything. The accusers’ testimony that Myers was unarmed is just typical “wasn’t me” lying bulls**t. Compared to a gun with the shooters’ prints on it, with 3 fired bullets and the recovered slugs as items of evidence? Please.
The more they burn flags and the more they call for lynching of the grand jury and innocent business owners the more public support they are losing - the politeness of HongKong makes St Louis a complete embarrassment
Having lived in Asia for years that doesn’t surprise me in the least.
Looked at the live feeds a bit. It appears to me that the “crowd” is simply a bunch of hollow people with no meaning or purpose in their lives. They are unhappy and sad people.
