What do you guys think about the cop in Ferguson?

[Enfuego]

Of course he should defend himself, does that make him a hero? I'm saying nobody forced him to become a cop and there is certain protocol to follow.

You're just trolling. Nobody in their right mind thinks this cop did anything wrong.

I never said he did anything wrong. I just stated he shouldn't be deemed a hero for killing someone.

and on the other side of the coin, he should not be call a murderer like the close minded parent he calling him either

 

[beefdiesel]

Anyone that considers this guy a hero for killing an unarmed kid has some real issues.

You are a moron, the cop was doing his job and killed the thug after he tried to kill him

It surprises me that so many people side with Brown. I don't think the cop is a hero. I think he did what he was supposed to do end of story. No hero and also does not deserve death threats etc.

Fucked up world we live in though.

Here is a good article about the physical evidence. Note that the author points out that there are no examples of the physical evidence conflicting with Officer Wilson's testimony.

Hope Browns parents find closure
officers parents find peace and the rioters find jobs

That's a nice thought but I think the chances are greater of Betallsports being named Pope.

Ironic, in the New York City case where there is a video I actually agree with the police as the guy was talking and alive after the chokehold.....Just a really strange accident.....I don't know how anyone could predict that would happen considering police take down many everyday without that ever happening, even some with temp chokeholds........Just very bizarre that happened.......However, it shows I don't pick one side or the other all the time on issues nor should I think others as well....

As on the flip and opposite side of this I'm still surprised Zimmerman walked as he had started the entire thing without having any power to do so...

I think everyone is dirty here. Brown was a thug and got what was coming for his actions.

cop is also a moron. I heard him say something like he doesn't feel bad about anything cause he did his job. How the fuck do you not feel bad killing someone unnecessarily. By that I mean beown didn't have to die here.

i don't side with anyone but if I were in the jury no indictment is my vote

300 lb thug in a drug induced rage with a bullet already in him is charging at you head down in the middle of the street, you're half his size and have a gun in your hand, what are you options? How do you get "unnecessarily" out of that scenario?

Zimmerman didn't "start" anything and you don't need "power" to ask someone what they are doing in your neighborhood.

You're endorsing the idea that if you ask a black kid a question he will be "provoked" into beating you.

I think we now know that zimmerman is a scumbag that should be in jail for murder. Cop wannabe stalking a kid and got courage because he had a gun. If he didn't have that weapon, he would have stayed home....like he should have.

How can you still comment on this situation. Isn't your jaw wired shut by now after the beating I gave you? Hope that spellcheck is workin out for ya!
