Crime Riot+Looting in Ferguson, MO

Not open for further replies.
Cops don't start firing at suspects they are chasing unless they are clearly armed. Even then the fact that the kids ignored a direct order from the cops didn't do themselves any favors in the matter. So you believe the story that the officer jumped out of his car and started firing without calling for back up or even trying to catch the kids on foot? The cop would have to be the biggest asshole on earth to that. Now whether the kids actually went after the cops gun is the important part.

This is my problem with incidents like this. The community always gets up in arms over the end result, but seems to overlook the circumstances that led up to the situation. The one way to avoid things like this is to act like you've got some sense and follow the law or if confronted by police, treat them with respect. There always seems to be gray area on events that lead to incidents like this.

I've been closely associated with police for over 18 years and I've never seen or heard of a police officer simply walking up to citizen and shooting them randomly. This is in Montgomery, Alabama mind you.
 
I am willing to bet most of the looters were outsiders from St. Louis. Ferguson is actually mostly middle class people and from what I heard from someone who lived near there, it's actually pretty nice if you're black or like to leave near black folk.
 
I hope one day Jack Savage realizes that not all of us libertarians are jag off pseudo libertarians like the Koch brothers or the Stormfront gang :)

I'm sure they usually precede it with some type of antagonism or demonstration of their authority first. :icon_lol:
 
How the fuck do people like Kevin Rudd get banned yet RIPWarrior and JFlare still have accounts?

KR got banned? The fuck? He was one of my favorite posters.

Is it only minorities and liberals he says can't be stereotyped? :D

I've had conversations with him in the past when he says that most libertarians are indeed racist.

Man when I found out you were an old school wrestling fan and a fellow Marine I thought you were alright but a god damn gator fan? Unacceptable!

Jk, back on topic...
 
Fuck no I'm not a Jawjuh bulldog. I can proudly say that even though we have sucked the past 6 years I'm a proud Vol. Born a Vol and I'll die one, I think Butch will get us back on track.

Maybe so, but I think first you should concentrate on your cupcake opponents and teaching your linemen not to block one another.

Hell yes!

You do know we have a CFB thread that runs 24/7 in the sports bar right?
