Act hinky — get treated hinky.
The cops don’t care what color you are when you make them nervous.
One wonders whether or not this writer should sue those who pretended to give them an education.
This is a very questionable shoot and should be investigated further.
Look for the Obama Justice Department to jump in to investigate and the federal investigation will be continued by the Trump Justice Department.
Were his hazard lights on or operable? Was his car hood up?
What type of white person do you want to be?
The kind that isn’t aware of color so much as I am of character...
By the way, just why the hell was he walking away from a bunch of officers with guns pointed at him?
Salon and Chauncey de vega? Really?
How many black lives mattered Crutcher was dealing dope to them?
He did not have car trouble. He stopped his suv in the middle of the street half in his lane and half in the oncoming traffic. He left the engine running and got out and started yelling crazy nonsense. His hands were not in the air when he was shot, and I seriously doubt the police were ordering him to go back to his vehicle. If he had gotten back in his vehicle, who knows how many people this “unarmed victim” would have killed.
Perhaps we should allow the investigation to complete its work.
What kind of “white” person do I want to be?
What kind of happy horse poop question is that?
Know this I’m not gonna be a guilt ridden white at all.
If white people block my way on the interstate, I’m plowing through them...if black people block my way on the interstate, I’m plowing through them. I have my own damn problems and I don’t care about yours - black or white.
Stick that in your pipe and smoke it, assuming you can find a place that will allow smoking.
If even a small faction of the public is as fed up as I am......
Does the writer think EMTs parachute in?
They should teach at school what ‘Suicide by Cop’ is.
If a cop tells you to stay put, but instead you keep walking to your car and then reach inside the car, you will be shot dead. Period.
It doesn’t matter what color or ethnicity you are. Those trying to make it a race issue are a bunch of racist bigots.
Crutcher had a hefty criminal record before he was shot. In fact, he had just been released in May after nine years in prison for drug trafficking, WZ reported.
He also had a history of resisting arrest. Behold the rap sheet:
1996 Shooting with intent to kill — Dismissed
2001 Petit larceny — Conviction
2004 Driving while suspended — Conviction
2005 Driving while suspended, resisting officer — Conviction
2006 Driving while suspended — Conviction
Driving with open container — Dismissed
2006 Trafficking in illegal drugs — Conviction. (He was also charged in that incident with assault on a police officer and resisting, but that was dismissed.)
2011 Public intoxication (while in prison for drug trafficking) — Conviction
2012 Public intoxication — Conviction
Obstructing an officer — Conviction
2013 DUI — Conviction
Resisting officer — Conviction
Open Container — Conviction
Failure to wear seatbelt — Conviction
Speeding — Conviction
But even all of that was not all.
Take a look at the numerous open warrants for Crutcher. These Aug. 30 warrants were active at the time of his death, and as you can see in the graphic below, they included things like DUI, resisting, drug trafficking and public intoxication.

It is best that Mr. Crutcher is dead. His death has saved taxpayers considerable resources. NEXT!
Sure every “motorist in distress” has a mile long arrest record and a vial of PCP in their car.
The best music-appreciation classes are the ones where I'm on PCP, except of course when the sounds get angry and threaten to rip out my soul.
