Twitter perpetuates 'hands up, don't shoot' myth

Imagine my surprise when I went to sign-in to Twitter today and one of the pictures rotating before I was able to login showed a bunch of people with their “hands up” in front of the St. Louis Gateway Arch.

“Hands Up, Don’t Shoot …” Hadn’t the Department of Justice’s largely ignored report exonerating Officer Darren Wilson basically shown the whole Ferguson narrative of the “Gentle Giant” Michael Brown’s final moments on earth to be a huge lie?

Why yes, yes it did.

Sorry John. "#Blackliesmatter" I'm sure all the "twitter" will die down just as soon as those "professional" afaletes apologize for supporting the lie on national tv. Just about the time the "professional" afaletes disavow the "I can't breeve" t-shirts. Just about the time that some principal allows white kids to attend a "hands up/pants down" rally. It's all about the Benjamins. (And who are the parents of the kids that would want to attend the rally in the first place? White guilt folks what are sad that they may have succeeded in life?)

Le Bron and the St. Louis Cardinals owe Wilson an apology as Le Bron also owes Zimmerman one too.

He is as bad as Obama convicting before reacting.

Glad NBA is Tanking

I think ESPN is the only one who talks about the game and NFL has more interest and they don't play until September.

Simple solution: Stop using Twitter.

LOL! Yeah, but as long as the lyin’ king keeps tellin’ everybody that’s where he gets his info, they’re good to go.

:: And who are the parents of the kids that would want to attend the rally ::

Who cares as long as those parents buy the $40 commemorative hoodie while their chilrens protest?

Gawd, I hate hippies.

I find it interesting that conservatives are happy to accept the Justice report exonerating Wilson.

But reject the one explaining why the Ferguson cop shop has problems.

Can’t see how Twitter adds much value to the world
