No different than the foolish ranting you, yourself have been engaged - because YOU are not fully engaged with the facts of the case either.
YOU have no 'facts' anymore than I have 'FACTS' of the case. They have as yet not been disclosed in terms of the shooting itself.
We only have what has been reported, and likewise my responses are the results of what has been reported and shown at the time I posted.
We do not know how many shots were fired. We do not know how many times Brown was shot and where he was shot. We do not know factually if it was only one shot from inside the car, or multiple shots fired from outside the car.
My point from the beginning was, and continues to be: if initial reports were true - in an environment where police have become a militarized civilian security force - that if shooting an unarmed person MULTIPLE times (if Brown was indeed running away from the police as first reported) is seen as justified, the threshold of discretion for when police can use deadly force will become narrower and narrower until it becomes accepted that the police can use whatever force they deem necessary at any given time.
That is beyond a dangerous environment to live in.
Do we really want to give a militarized civilian security force that kind of power by applauding this case as justified IF - IF - IF, the initial reports were accurate and the cop shot Brown multiple times away from his squad car?
Given the huge amount of police state tactics being employed against Americans in recent years - it was and is a necessary point of discussion to make.
Even if you do not like it because you will side with whomever has a badge.
I am not so trusting - and I have good reason for that distrust.
I understand your desire to change the subject from this case to something else, and to your credit, you’ve been doing that all along as new facts which appear continue to destroy all the arguments you’ve made.
Those of us who aren’t so emotionally involved have seen the truth of this almost from the very beginning. You haven’t, By way of example, your ‘shooting in the back’ theory. We instinctively knew it was nonsense, but you hung in there.
My point is simple, your biases have blinded you to the reality of this one, and your most recent post to me reiterates that.
Hang in there if you must, but you’re no good to our side if you insist on building your positions on lies.
