Thugs and idiots looking for an excuse to loot. Many of them didn't get the memo that the police officer who shot the armed man was black.

GiRTh 22-09-2016 07:22 PM

Arista, are you gonna report on both recent shootings or just this one?

GiRTh 22-09-2016 07:23 PM

Ok looks like you're only reporting this one so here the other recent unarmed shooting.

A white woman officer who shot the black man who had his hands up has just been convicted of first degree murder.

No Girth he was only ever going to report the aftermath as I knew he would .

Curfew
National Guard Deployed.

3rd night.

The Black Police officer said the man
had a gun, not a book.

Tulsa Police Officer Shares Her Side of the Story in Terence Crutcher's Shooting
http://abcnews.go.com/US/tulsa-polic...ry?id=42243843

The lawyer gives his very detailed play by play of events...

Also the officer has just been charged with manslaughter for Terence Crutcher.

Is'nt this thread about a black officer shooting a black man?Why doesn't someone just make another thread for the other shooting?

Crimson Dynamo 23-09-2016 07:12 AM

I dont know why we dont just abandon courts, evidence jurys lawyers and judges and just watch video snippets of alleged crimes etc and then post about it on twitter, if enough people are outraged then we lynch the person involved?

Its OK
let Girth have his news story's
at least they are concluding.


On the Black Officer
shooting the Black
man - thats stuck
as Police back the officer , so far.

GiRTh 23-09-2016 05:01 PM

Concluding? Exactly. You've come in very much toward the end of the story. Are you gonna explain to the forum what has happened so far or do you want them to only comment on the civil unrest and rioting?

arista 23-09-2016 06:20 PM

Girth
I meant in the Tulsa Shooting
that cop arrested

Meanwhile in North Carolina
Curfew starts at midnight.
No change

GiRTh 23-09-2016 06:25 PM

Thats not what you said. I dont see any post where you refer to Tulsa but if you insist you were referring to the Tulsa shooting then thanks for clearing that up. :thumbs:

Crimson Dynamo 23-09-2016 06:31 PM

I feel for the law enforcement officers having to deal with this unrest from hooligans and perps, i really do

I dont go on facebook, so no idea what you mean :shrug:

So what precisely is the reality I need to face up to?

Ithinkiloveyoutoo 23-09-2016 10:20 PM

Conflicting stories. Family says he was reading a book and cop says he had a gun. There are corrupt black cops too- at times influenced by their white colleagues. As a movie reference the black cop in straight outta Compton.
Still doesn't change the fact that a lot of cops act on fear and racial profiling.

Because Arista loves opening these threads on this matter but only when it suits his narrative.

But you don't post everything about it. I personally would prefer if you left this subject alone and stopped posting threads about it because we already know where you stand but well...

arista 24-09-2016 01:12 AM

The Police are still looking at their own
camera video.


No more deaths
is a good thing
