***** An elderly black man was carjacked and ran over by rioters...A young black man was robbed and killed last night in Ferguson. In st louis they were rioting for Vonderrit myers who was shooting at police when he was killed. Mike Brown robbed a gas station before he was killed. But NO ONE cares about the innocent young black man who was killed for having a fake gun in his hands at Wal-mart. These riots are offensive they are standing up for thugs. There is actually innocent blacks being killed by police but the protestors ignore that because those innocent blacks are not on their side. The side of aggression and violence. The good people are ignored by all sides.

[@Overmillion]

@@KamsPoliticalPredictions yes. I can absolutely blame them. No one is okay with actual hate crimes and when cruel acts are carried out in the name of racism. Eventually, we need to move on and change the chain of thought when things like this occurs. Look, me and everyone I've ever known can look at the past and will say there were many bad things that took place. But now it's time to press on and not continue to create racial tension that people of the past fought to minimize and hopefully eliminate. We learn from the past, we don't live in it. This leads to depression almost every time. Every time a bad thing happens, which EVERYONE condemns, it's not the time to bring up the past and create a wave of vengeful people which hurt innocent lives which they are supposedly against. Instead, it's time to pick each other up, figure out why, and create movements that set historic examples. Not historic controversies. Look to marches and passionate speeches of the past. The best ones were the ones who shined through intellect, not further hatred. That is how people listen and learn.

[@888strummer]

This was a well organized event and was set up by some very high ranking blacks and whites, who are trying to cause race riots throughout America. This really reflects poorly on black people, yet I know plenty of blacks who are very bright, so this is very unfair to the intelligent, hard working and decent black people of America. When a 6 foot 4 290 pound 18 year old punches a cop and tries to take his gun and later comes charging at him and gets shot and killed, the cop should not be blamed. Plenty of innocent unarmed Americans; both black and white; have been killed this year by bad cops, but Mike Brown was not innocent. He committed the strong arm robbery of an elderly 5 foot 3 asian shop owner and then tried to take a cops gun and then charged the cop.

[@bilbobagginski4520]

888 eh?

[@888strummer]

Bilbo Bagginski eh what? What part do you not understand: He committed the strong arm robbery of an elderly 5 foot 3 asian shop owner and then tried to take a cops gun and then charged the cop and this is why he got shot dead

[@888strummer]

***** No, I'm saying this because I actually can deal with reality and know the inner city very well and know a bad cop when I see one and a dangerous thug when I see one. Clearly this is an 18 year old thug who thought he was above the law and he was a threat to all of society. As I said; he first commits a strong arm robbery which is clearly video taped. Then there are eyewitness testimony that agree with the cops claims that he first punched the cop, then tried to take his gun and then charged at him and continued charging at him even after being shot at and told to stop. There are definitely bad cops and innocent unarmed Americans that have been shot and killed this year, but unfortunately this case is not one of them and is a distraction away from the cases that should have been exposed. And plenty of innocent white unarmed Americans have died at the nads of white or black cops, so the racial element is also a major distraction. This kid gets shot and killed whether he was black and white and it's based fully on his actions. If he tackles the cop and gets his gun, then he kills the cop

[@TheYoungn231]

888strummer why would he need to charge the cop if he was in range to punch him? That doesn't make sense.

Of course Michael Brown who robbed a store , attacked the cop in his car by starting to punch him , grappled for the cops gun to obviously shoot him. The gentle giant was about twice the size of the cop .So ,during the attack on the cop by Brown , the gun accidentally went off twice and shot thru the door and floor which startled Brown and exited the car. So at this point you have a very dangerous felon who just robbed the store , assaulted a cop , resisted arrest , tried to overpower the cop to get his gun to cold blooded murder him. Another felonious martyr against police brutality.
