Natalie Jackson · Orlando, Florida STL protest is what happens when good cops cover for & protect bad cops like Darren Wilson...people lose faith in justice system & lose trust in ALL cops.

livestream (2nd frame down): http://www.argusnewsnow.com/page/livestreams-from-ferguson/115.html

there were more cops than protestors. Swat truck rolled up a bit ago and then disappeared after giving order to disperse. Shortly after that ‘hat guy’ (loudmouth causacian) talked to a plainclothes, and the police said they will withdraw the line as long as the protest stays calm. Small mixed crowd continues random taunting as police vehicles withdraw from sight.

“Why’d you shoot him 16 times”?

“Ran out of ammo.”

He was only shooting at the officer.....clearly a case of the police jumping to a false conclusion and over reacting because the child was black.

My WAG is that the “caring white liberals” who run the media will now not give a damn about black racist thugs and instead start worrying about Ebola. The far left white kooks are going to be off the reservation shouting “racist” but the more centrist ones (they have money) are going to start worrying that ebola is coming to their precious gated communities.

Cop was off-duty, working a second job. Was the car marked, was he in uniform?

Maggie!!!..either you're up very early, or very late.....

You may recall, a few years ago, when the St Pete SWAT team cornered an illegal alien, who had earlier shot and killed a police officer..they shot his 68 times, killing him..

The media of course went nuts...HOW COULD YOU SHOOT HIM 68 TIMES!!

The police chief's response:"Because that's all the ammunition we had."

I wonder if the 18-year-old veteran criminal was a product of the Democrats creation of “the hood” through their New Deal, Great Society, and welfare giveaway programs.

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?

Arrest-Related Deaths, 2003-2009 - Statistical Tables

"From 2003 through 2009, a total of 4,813 deaths were reported to the Bureau of Justice Statistics’ (BJS) Arrest-Related Deaths (ARD) program."

Of these, about 6 in 10 deaths (2,931) were classified as homicide by law enforcement personnel, and 4 in 10 (1,882) were attributed to other manners of death.

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.

Dotson did not identify the 18-year-old but said he "was no stranger to law enforcement."

The teenager attempted to fire more but his gun jammed..

If you're going to carry a little Ruger carry one that works.
