Micheal Brown is vilified as scum because he robbed a store and allegedly tried to grab a cop’s gun.Cliven Bundy had been stealing for decades by illegally grazing on public lands and refusing to pay for it. He and a posse dressed in flak jackets and armed with assault rifles stood off against federal agents trying to enforce the law. Cliven and posse were heralded by many in the Tea Party as patriots.

Copied loosely from Jase99. Bears repeating. Yeah, it helps to be white. Michael Brown is vilified as scum because he is African American and allegedly robbed a store and allegedly tried to grab a cop’s gun.

How about a recording device on the officer’s person? So, the officer’s supervisors and anyone else with a legal interest can verify what happened. Some law enforcement agencies already do this. It is an incentive to follow procedures correctly and a means to verify who, if anyone was in the wrong. Even a sound recorder would have resolved this whole Ferguson thing right away.

Too true to be funny.

“You can’t tell the difference between tresspassing and attempted murder.”Wow, that was a pretty good attempt at deflecting. You totally ignored the fact that Bundy and his posse were armed with assault weapons with the direct intention of stopping federal agents from enforcing the law.

I will agree that all civilian law enforcement officials must pass extensive and rigorous standardized training before being issued a weapon and that they must pass yearly rigorous refresher courses.

“Michael Brown didn’t “allegedly” try to grab Darrin Wilson’s gun, any more than Brown “allegedly” ran 21 feet attempting to kill Wilson, who rightly feared for his life.”And you know this for a fact because you were an eye witness? No? Then it’s just speculation on your part.

12 year old (who looked 20?) has a “toy” gun that, like all other kids, he’s taken the orange barrel plug off, to make it look totally REAL, and he points it at multiple people, and the cops when they show up. I recently checke out these “air soft” pistols, and they DO look exactly real, so if one was pointd at me, and shots had already been fired, sorry, I’d shoot the gunner.
