Maybe certain communities should stop raising wanna be thugs, glorifying violence, that either end up being real thugs, or get killed along the way.

Why are we blaming cops for trying to do something about the violence in the communities that have a real violence problem?

If the cops didn't show up then they would be complaining that the police don't care about those communities.

It's damned if you do, damned if you don't.

I didnt know this...

People are so determined these days to call out people for being racist, when they arent.

as I mentioned in the other thread, if cops were truly racist, black people would be totally ****ed.

Exactly. if white people in America wanted to kill all black people, it would already be done by now.

America would look like Sweden by now if we were racist.

Can we keep the personal attacks/assumptions out of discussions please.

well they aren't exactly helping themselves, rioting and intimidating people with fake guns.

the whole thing is being blown well out of proportion. it wouldn't be anywhere near as bad, if the people who are rioting, didn't riot...

it's amazing how little progress we have made in 20 years...

Except they face racial profiling and discrimination on a daily basis. Seriously Alex, do you even live in America? Because to me it sounds like you're living in a Bruce Springsteen idealised fantasy land.

You're more concerned with your national pride then accepting the fact that your country has flaws. Sticking your head in the sand will not make those problems go away. You should be furious at stories like this, not victim blaming to keep your delusional idea of America intact.

i'm furious with the media, not my country, because this case has nothing to do with my country, federal police have nothing to do with it, and this particular case says nothing about America.

This was a local police force, and a local jury that have nothing to do with America as a whole.

Yes i get annoyed when international press tries to slate America as a whole over small cases just for entertainment and sensationalist purposes. of course i am.

You don't seem to be able to articulate your opinions in any kind of intelligent way.

You just seem to be trying to ridicule others with dumb cartoon images.

Sorry had to laugh at YOU of all people saying that.

You'rw attempting to justify a cop shooting a 12 year old for pointing a toy gun and you accuse me of having nothing intelligent to say? There is an astonishing lack of self awareness here.

If that is how you see it and justify it to yourself, no wonder you feel that way.

meanwhile in the real world...

You're trying to justify killing children. In my fantasy world grown up cops dont kill children.

You're furious with people reporting it but not the crime itself? You, and people like you, are what's wrong with America.

Unless they see said child/children as a current danger to the public.

There have been very few incidents of that. 12 year olds are not the ideal profile for a serial killer

No-one said the kid was a serial killer.. but he was waving around, what looked like, a real gun.

Would you have preferred the cop in question to stop, walk up to him and check whether the thing was real or not?

He was simply doing his job, assessing a situation and dealing with it the way he was taught how to, to take out the main cause of danger, with appropriate action.

[lostalex]

Wow, this thread, and most others here, i really feel like... ARE YOU PEOPLE LIVING ON THE SAME PLANET THAT I AM? I cannot believe how ignorant people can be, i don't understand if they are really ignorant, or if they are just trying to manipulate things. Are most people STUPID? or are they LYING for their own purposes? i don't know.

I cant explain it.
