I truly wish he were still alive today. Maybe, just maybe, he could talk some sense into these people. Instead, the only sound being made is from the likes of Sharpton and Jackson. sigh He truly was taken from us too soon.
Any one who argues that Police should NOT wear cameras at this point are beyond the point of ignorance. The evidence presented, with the autopsy disproving the surrender story and backing up the officers testimony was not enough to keep the people off the street. With video evidence I would hope, maybe fruitlessly, that people would be more reasonable. But hey, maybe they just wanted to loot and riot.
As little as I respect Bill, that’s not what he said. His comment was actually pretty accurate. The Ferguson riots are nothing compared to the riots after MLK was shot.
If the victim was white. This would not be news.Stop all the emotion. What would you do if a 6’4" 290 lb man hit you in your car, tried to take your gun , then started charging at you? I would shoot, wouldn’t you?
How many killed since Brown? How many got the media attention?
There are good and bad cops, and good and bad “citizens”. We’ve lost the ability to sort them out and act accordingly, and it’s the “media”, and ignorance, that thrive.

He would never have dreamed of this? Ferguson is a parade compared to the riots right after he was shot.

1000 TIMES as many black men are killed by other black men than police officers.Sad, but true.

Why would anyone in this day and age want to be a cop?
