i don't know the full details of what went on in ferguson, no one does….but calling it a "robbery" is laughable…he lifted a pack of cigarillos. and the cop was harassing him bc he and his friend were walking in the middle of the street...
It was theft, plain and simple. Guess if we all "lifted" a pack of cigarillos it would be just fine. Cop was NOT harassing Mike Brown and Johnson, he simply asked them to stop walking in the middle of the street and move to the sidewalk. Michael Brown attacked the officer inside his car and reached for his gun. African American witnesses themselves said Brown DID NOT have his hands up and DID NOT say don't shoot. I'm so sick of hearing/seeing this "Hands Up, Don't Shoot" crap, it never even happened. He had his hands out to the side. And after being warned to stop he continued toward the officer, and thus, the multiple shots. Mike Brown was not a small man either, and was definitely a threat. You don't keep coming at an officer after having been asked to stop and put your hands behind your head without consequences. All he had to do was obey the law/officer, and he refused.
There are some police officers that abuse their 'power.' But this rioting, protesting with destruction of property does nothing but ruin communities/neighborhoods. Incident in NY/Staten Island certainly added fuel to the fire. And Obama had no business sticking his nose in any of it/making statements--how many other presidents have you seen do that? Tend to your government duties, not local law enforcement issues, he certainly has enough to do in Washington.
why aare you going to post a pick? yeah what I thought. ... u never post a pick u just hate. haters gonna hate doucebags gonna smell
I support this movement for the end of police brutality in NY. Regardless if the victim was black or any other color. The officer was wrong for using such hold which has been abolished and deemed illegal. I support athletes for showing their support. All leagues has to understand this is a NATION WIDE MOVEMENT. Therefore all politically correct BS should be put aside. This movement is for the better of our human race. However, I CANNOT understand or support the "Hands up, don't shoot" crap. That kid just finished robbing a store and tried to whoop the officer's ass. Does people know what they are supporting in regards to the Ferguson case?

You're quite correct choke holds aren't illegal. They are banned by NYCPD since 1993. But we all knowCan you show me where a chokehold is deemed illegal??

There's one sure way to avoid police brutality (real or imagined)
Don't commit crimes, don't have a rap sheet of 30 pages, don't talk shit to officers like you're some badass going to intimidate them and most importantly, don't assault an officer
When I get pulled over for rolling through a stop sign or speeding, I go full bore kiss ass. My buddies tease me because I'm always let off the hook with rare exceptions.
I've seen one person get arrested and then get his ass kicked in jail (chipped tooth) because he was talking shit to an officer that pulled him over. And this guy was a white dude. If you're not smart enough to know when to shut the fuck up, chances are you won't like the consequences.
